So, ZYN finally caved and started doing higher-strength pouches with ZYN Ultra. They even jumped on the "moist" train as well.
Is it enough to displace FRE's best-in-class strength ladder (it goes all the way up to 15mg)? My thoughts 👇
PSA: Definitely not a good idea to have an edible after buckets of Prosecco and barely any food. Probably also don’t try and watch All Quiet On The Western Front whilst riding it out either.
@UBHD_ Hey, I can help with this. I run VapeBeat, we've been covering these kinds of topics for over a decade. Feel free to DM if you want to talk more :)
The Pulsar APX eRig hits a rare sweet spot in the sub-$200 market. If your budget is tight AF, here’s why this is the only electric dab rig I’d bother with in 2026:
It ships with a 3200mAh battery
It comes with a coil-less quartz cup
You get a showerhead percolator
And it runs five temperature presets which makes it idiot-proof
Geek Bar's range of vapes is confusing AF. There's far too many options, loads of variables and hundreds of flavor combos.
If you want the straight-dope on what's worth buying right now, check out my guide below.
New Geek Bar 2 is here.
800mAh battery is 23% larger than the original Pulse but still small compared to some alternatives
New VPU chip gives 32% greater puff output and 30% better e-liquid retention versus the original Pulse
ICYMI — don’t drink the Kool Aid @MikeBloomberg is selling. Safer alternatives have existed for 15+ years. UK Smoking is at an all time low. Why? Pro vaping stance. In the US, we basically have prohibition and we all know how that went the first time.
Nicotine is addictive, but it is not the primary cause of smoking-related cancers. The overwhelming harm comes from the toxic chemicals produced by burning tobacco. Evidence-based policies should distinguish between combustible cigarettes and lower-risk nicotine alternatives.
As countries around the world embrace tobacco harm reduction and see smoking rates fall, African policymakers must not be left behind. Science, not fear, should guide regulation 🚭#TobaccoHarmReduction #PublicHealthAfrica
If Google gave a shit about its users, like DDG, it’d give them a simple switch to turn off AI Overviews. The fact they don’t tells you everything you need to know about them.
Interesting move as more AI backlash builds. Again, I think we will see many push back against AI (and the companies driving it). That's especially the case with younger people. Will be interesting to follow.
