Apology accepted! Let's just both agree to pick up some litter the next time we go to the beach.
Unfortunately my hometown still allows indoors smoking etc so we're still pretty far from a ban. But it will come I'm sure.

Wow that was a lot of vitriol in one post. Hope you're doing ok.
Over here these disposable vapes are unfortunately not banned (which I would prefer too) so taxation would be a step in the right direction. We do have litter here too though, as has been the case with mankind since day one of civilization.

These things should be taxed heavily

That's a good quote.
Also props for recognizing your own people-pleasing tendencies. And I'm glad to hear you've worked on it. It takes time to understand what causes us to be like that. It might be out of fear of rejection or some other unwanted outcome. And it could be based on some irrational assumptions or beliefs.
To be able to accept any outcome in any situation is very difficult, but a strong foundation for confidence and inner peace.

There are different kinds of kindness. The people-pleasing kind may come across as being naive and triggers some people. Another kind of kindness is to actually care and be curious about others and that usually comes across better.

At least someone should airdrop disposable film cameras there so this genocide doesn't go completely undocumented. Israel has effectively blocked all media from access to Gaza.

Frankly, the way the topic sentence was formulated is mildly infuriating...

Glad to hear Ukrainian forces care enough about their guys and gals to go through something like this to rescue them. I suppose the other side wouldn't do the same.
