No one: Essentially, literally, no one: Me: I got on a proper podcast to talk about a future where people who want or need nicotine don't lose years of life because of how they consume it!! Comments, welcomed, and I'll add a tweet with some links. #TheSmokelessWord #Omni #FromTheLab
This week on the inaugural episode of The @SmokelessWord: Live from the Lab, Dr James Murphy and @jgitchell, CEO of Pinney Associates, on how to accelerate the migration of adult smokers who would otherwise continue smoking completely to smokeless alternatives.

I humble-bragged about two papers: Pop trends: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3902… Relative risk perceptions: reference-global.com/article… And I expressed big and well-earned ❤️ to @foodanddruglaw for their commitment to being a trusted convener. Yes, that is a @RAYGUNshirts "Be A Helper" shirt under my buttondown. Natch. And I do expect teasing for invoking the Phial of Galadriel towards the end!

So, peeps, if you've not watched this TED talk, and you prefer to be less wrong, then.... #GetItDone
No apologies and thank you for seeking clarification. And if you've not watched this @TEDTalks of Ms Schulz, holy-moly, does it HIT (hit--not an acronym that can be misconstrued!): youtu.be/QleRgTBMX88?si=JlVO…

I am embarrassed not to have watched this @TEDTalks before now. @JonHaidt has cited this, but OMG is it worth your time to take in full throttle. Let's get less wrong, together.

Show me you're a big nerd without telling me you're a big nerd.
I feel like a lot of discourse around wealth taxes would go away if more people understood the difference between stocks and flows.

We do not have a replication crisis when it comes to policy and regulation on psychoactive drugs. #MakeNewMistakes
Have any of these nicotine prohibitionists ever checked in on how the actual War on Drugs is going? In short, the drugs are winning. Especially in Palau. Cannabis is illegal there but it has one of the highest usage rates in the world. Good luck enforcing a ban on nicotine.

Yes, there's plenty of bad news in the world. But there are a lot of positive trends that don't get the coverage they should. The media isn't very interested in stories that don't advance activist causes, I argue in @WSJFreeEx today: "An atmosphere of perpetual crisis helps justify radical policies." [link below]

Treat yerself to this interview. #StayCurious
I really enjoyed this interview with Jamin Coller on his "If I'm Really Honest" podcast. Among many other topics, we discussed the deep (social) reasons our faces are so distinctive and why they do not look like our elbows. ;-) youtube.com/watch?v=GSNVpotm…

This is so essential American. "I don't know a single thing about Algeria, I cannot find it on a map, but you showed me a modicum of kindness and I am now ride or die for every single Algerian for the rest of my natural life."
🗣️ “I want to say thank you to Algeria for choosing Lawrence, Kansas.” 🇺🇸 The locals in USA are all getting behind Algeria. 🇩🇿

Thank you @imaracingmom and everyone else for helping me with this article:
"There is no smoking-cessation help available in the five-county area that I live in." Rural residents are much less likely to quit than city-dwellers. Complex factors are behind this disparity, so ending it won't be easy, reports @KiranSidhu51: filtermag.org/rural-people-h…
