I'm an ex-smoker. Smoking is a horrible addiction.
Smoking as a social habit can be sexy as hell, and is a way of creating familiarity and intimacy quickly.
Yes, I do miss it.

Clarence Thomas has said publicly that he thinks Obergefell should be overturned and that precedent can be reconsidered. This is a bad-faith Supreme Court and almost anything is possible.
