I went a week without smoking/vaping nicotine, then I ate something spicy and my urges to smoke suddenly came ten folds. For those that used to smoke, how did you quit? I am having the hardest time dealing the urges of wanting to feel "buzzed" rather than craving nicotine. I've tried substituting nicotine for weed, but that was too potent and wasn't nearly weak enough to give me the same buzz that I got from smoking cigarettes.

Dang...I wish I never smoked. Smoking was never cool.

Baldur's gate 2.

She did not work there (just to clarify)

Gaylord is a masculine name of French origin. It stems from the word gaillard, which means lively and spirited. This name calls to mind a happy, boisterous baby with a true zest for life.

Is that what you want? You want to be a pilot for a gigantic mech that can level skyscrapers and zoom around like it is no one's business? If that is what you want keep letting Corporations get more and more power.
Smh

I'm in TX and it's $7.25 only because the federal govt makes it be so. They'd gladly make it 0 if they could.

Tell me your game is boring for the first 20 hours without telling me your game is boring for the first 20 hours.

That sounds like a horrible way to undervalue yourself

My house is old and I have window units.

Just told my brother to turn his off and buy a fan because it's not even 80 degrees outside and it's even cooler in the house. He's forever leaving his AC on running up the bill.

CE spouts nothing but contempt for people who use front pockets

cant doctors just work whenever they want? like if theyre feeling down at the moment, cant they just schedule around 5 patients for the whole shift?

The primary Bethesda dev team works on the mainline games. After Starfield, they're starting on ES6, then FO5 after that.

It's gonna be another decade or so.

This makes me feel very patriotic.

That's a good one. Here in Australia a driver gets in trouble too if his passengers aren't wearing seatbelts

It doesn't make any sense

Kinda sucks that the rest of the crew had to be offed.

yeah but don't forget the first threat that worked, besides paying them off. threatening family is still threatening family. and this proves they'll do anything, it's not a bluff.

And then streaming happened and put those out of business. Unless WB, Disney, and Universal want to start charging $50 per film to stream at home, they're never going to make money on releasing films anymore.

Remember after GME when it skyrocketed from like $8 per share to $75 or something in like a week.

Also, there's no chance AMC goes bankrupt. They are responsible for 36% of all revenue for films in the US. If they ceased to exist, Hollywood would cease to exist.

I don't think this theory is particularly real. Doesn't hold up under scrutiny. A dead patient incurs zero medical cost. There's a lot of people who die between 40-60 from cancer and from a capitalist POV it doesn't make sense to milk someone for like $100-$200k once in their life when you can treat them for all kinds of age related issues later and make much more money long term. They would definitely cure cancer if they could.

Could this be achieved by giving health care providers more time with patients? Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the supply of doctors artificially limited because med schools limit the number of new med schools and the number of medical students.
Seems like we shouldn't do that, and should aim to have an increase in healthcare providers. It would probably also decrease average wages, but it seems like it'd help overall
