Just checking in for my quit, which starts tomorrow, and hopefully helping get this sub off the ground.

Edit: thanks for the well-wishes everyone. Turns out my wife and I did fight over something stupid, and I smoked, because I'm an idiot. Looking forward to doing it again tomorrow.

Surgical tech and nursing student, here!

We all know smoking isn't healthy, so it feels a little redundant to drive that point, but even as someone who's worked in a clinical environment for years, I gotta say I had no fucking clue just how bad it is until the deep-dive into disease processes my recent education has pushed me through.

Smoking fucks with like everything your body wants to do - it's not just a random cough and the elevated risk of cancer.

Definitely cheering for you!
