@yellow_fr3ak I am interested!

The faux wolf rug/wall ornament is finished! I am asking $700 USD +shipping (from New Zealand). It will be about $100 USD to ship if I can get it boxed up nice and tight! Please REPLY if you are interested :) freakhoundstudios.com/rug1

FIRE!

The $46 billion vape industry hired flavor chemists to solve a specific problem: nicotine tastes bitter. The human tongue has T2R receptors that detect nicotine and trigger aversion. So the industry reverse-engineered the problem. They loaded e-liquids with fruity aromatic compounds like farnesol, farnesene, and ethyl butyrate that suppress the bitterness signal and activate sweetness perception through the orbitofrontal cortex instead. Turns out they built something more powerful than a nicotine delivery system. A 2023 study in the Journal of Neuroscience found that green apple vape flavorants, with zero nicotine present, independently fire dopamine neurons in the ventral tegmental area and increase dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens. The same reward circuitry that nicotine hijacks. The flavor chemicals alone were producing reward-seeking behavior in mice. A separate study found strawberry additives significantly increased nicotine vapor sampling, meaning the fruit smell made subjects inhale more of the drug without any conscious decision to do so. 95% of vape users choose flavored products. The industry has always framed this as “consumer preference.” The neuroscience says the flavors are pharmacologically active compounds that directly alter brain reward circuits and increase drug intake. Now look at what those compounds do once the device gets tossed. The UK was discarding 5 million disposable vapes per week before the ban. The aromatic volatiles don’t stop broadcasting once the device is empty. Orthonasal olfaction, the same pathway that makes you smell a strawberry from across a room, works identically in mammals. A squirrel’s olfactory system processes fruity volatiles through the same receptor families humans use. The signal reads as food. Nobody saw squirrels gnawing on Marlboro butts for 60 years. Vapes show up and suddenly there’s footage from London, Philadelphia, and Wales. The animals are chewing on lithium batteries wrapped in candy-scented plastic because the flavor engineering worked exactly as designed on a nervous system it was never tested on. The lithium in those discarded vapes equals 5,000 electric vehicle batteries per year. Oxford researchers found the cells inside can cycle 450+ times, but the product is built to be used once and thrown in a park. A squirrel holding a blueberry vape on a Brixton fence is the most honest product review the flavor chemists have ever received.

@DEADALIVEGUY_ Yeah the rivet is a tough repair :( the tail tip at least has some skin left. I hear superglue helps sometimes? But I think leaving it for decorative is a good call.

@mossthewolf THANK YOU! I tried to fix this one but i think it mightve just been poorly made in the first place and it looked like i was only going to fuck it up more by trying to fix it lol

my beautiful tails collection.. they accompany me to raves and such.. Sorry to the coyote tail i have pinned to the wall back there. His rivet fell out and i didnt want him to just sit in a drawer forever

@DEADALIVEGUY_ God. That’s so fucking cool. Respect for ur mom

@mossthewolf Actually that honor goes to my Mom.. She was a tail wearer in a raver way back in the day
