      There’s a consistency at its core: “making something illegal doesn’t make it impossible, therefore nothing should be illegal, especially if it’s a treat I like.” smuglord

        i have to say i get the urge cause I’m an alcoholic and a smoker but I recognise in a utopian view of the future those things are hopefully going away lol. it’s a knee jerk reactionary urge that ppl need to learn to recognise and fight in themselves
