fighting evil by moonlight

Fucks sake, what is this ****... I vape. I started smoking when I was 16 because I thought it was cool, and smoked for years with no thought of quitting because I liked the nicotine and hated myself too much to consider how unhealthy it was. And then vaping started to take off, and I got a cigarette style vape for free, and that was the start of things changing for the better.

Vaping changed my life. I was able to quit smoking, without too much difficulty. It was the first thing I had done to really better myself, and it let my take next steps to do it again, albeit a little slower than I'd have liked. I could breathe again, I could exercise without wheezing, I didn't stink like dumpster fire, and I wasn't as anxious.

I ******* love electronic cigarettes, and I hate that they've been hijacked by douchbaggery. I know plenty of people that have quit smoking, and have tangentially interacted with the reddit vaping community, which is super friendly and supportive. Vaping is an saving grace to smokers, and I'm so ******* sad it gets demonized because of its associations.
