The number of American smokers fell from 42 percent of adults in 1965 to 19 percent in 2010, and it is estimated that nearly 800,000 deaths from lung cancer were prevented between 1975 and 2000.

Horror Movies I Remember Watching As A Kid👻
🩸👻🩸👻🩸👻🩸👻🩸👻🩸👻🩸👻🩸👻🩸👻🩸👻
Valentine (2001)
Tumblr media
Oh this! Now this movie I would watch every opportunity I got. When it was on TV for Valentines Day I'd watch it while surrounded by chocolates and when it was over, I'd catch the repeat on the next channel! Ah I remember lying on the couch (unfortunately I was sick with flu at the time) surrounded by chocolate and Sprite and my plushies, comfy blanket and all just chilling and watching the movie start to finish. The nostalgia just brings back good memories. Love this movie😊 Also I always thought the killer looked deadly especially with the arrow scene, definitely Cupid got skills in archery!
Friday The 13th: Jason Takes Manhatten
Tumblr media
I'm a big fan of Jason since I was a kid yet you'd be surprised that I haven't even watch HALF of the Friday The 13th movies. I remember only I think the one where the little kid is in it. But this movie got me hooked on the Friday The 13th and Jason Voorhees became my favourite slasher. Though I love the Nightmare On Elm Street franchise, you'll always find me cheering for Jason in Freddy vs Jason. Plus this movie has a killer beat theme song!😆
Nightmare On Elm Street
Tumblr media
Now, to pick one favourite from the Nightmare On Elm Street would be difficult to say the least, not to mention that I can't cover all movies but luckily I only have really 3 movies I love in the franchise.
To start off, the first movie was my favourite. It was scary watching as a kid but that didn't stop me! The first one was brilliant and still is to this day. I would watch it a few days before Halloween and it just added to the atmosphere😊
Now the next one would be Dream Warriors because I liked the idea of the kids teaming up and using their dreams to fight Freddy. It was pretty cool to me as a kid at the time and to be honest, it's still cool to me😊
New Nightmare is another brilliant movie and the Freddy in it had just that absolute scare factor, like he just got even more scarier. The new claw glove in it was badass too and the storyline was very well put together. I loved it and its actually one of my sister's favourites too!😊
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)
Tumblr media
When I first watched this movie with my brothers, the scene at night in the woods and Leatherface coming out of freaking nowhere with the chainsaw scared the absolute shit out of me! Not gonna lie. But after the shock wore off I grew to love the first movie as it was scary as hell but I appreciated how it was put together to give you the best scare factor.
I did see number 2 of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and yes it was crazy as fuck but I do adore only certain horror movies that have that bat crazy factor and this movie got it. I love it!😆
Skinned Deep
Tumblr media
I got this movie as a kid as a present. Now first lemme get this out of the way by saying it's okay if you never heard of this film nor be aware of it's existence. That's because to the small community of fans of this movie it's regarded as a cult movie so while it's not popular with the mainstream movie community it's popular to a select few. I never heard of this movie either but I still have it to this day and for a reason.
Yes, take it from me it's VERY weird. Like more crazy than Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2. It's in some way similar to Texas Chainsaw Massacre but just amped up on the crazy factor. I do love the design of the Surgeon General (Bear Trap Guy Above⬆️). On scary factor it is more freaky factor but it does hold up. Now if you did see this movie your opinions may differ from mine so I'd like to hear your thoughts on the movie😊
Interview With The Vampire
Tumblr media
I love vampires. Hell I wanted to be a vampire since I was a kid! Well my canines are pointed more than normal so yeah, I got fangs😂 Anyway this movie goes up there on my top vampire movies list next to Bram Stoker's Dracula. I'm a total Lestat fan. Like if I was a vampire I would be like Lestat. Of course I loved Louise in it but as a kid I found him slightly whiny🤣 But now i found Louise more tolerable. Mum allowed me to stay up one Halloween dressed as a vampire to watch this, drinking sweet sugar juice made to look like blood and eating candy🩸🦇 Ahh memories!
Bram Stoker's Dracula
Tumblr media
My favourite Dracula movie alongside Christopher Lee's portrayal as the iconic vampire. This movie is so freaking good and love the storyline. Yeah it has the love story element to it but i don't care. I love the movie. And yes, I did want Mina and Dracula to live happily ever after!😂
Botched
Tumblr media
I watched this on the Horror Channel after my room was redecorated. It takes place in Russia and yes It's bonkers but it's funny like some scenes made me laugh till my stomach hurted. I later got the movie on DVD and still have it to this day. It's a gem in my movie collection honestly. The movie is in English in case you are wondering. If you watched it, please let me know what you think of the movie😊
The Lost Boys
Tumblr media
Another fave vampire movie of mine! Love David and his vampire biker crew in the film. They are a found family honestly and its cool! Watched this many times in the summertime as a kid and I would love to pretend I was one of them, like wearing shades around the house!😆 Very good movie! Also my favorite vampire crush is Marko🦇❤️😉
House On A Haunted Hill (1999)
Tumblr media
Oh the nostalgia that just hits me when I think about this movie! Oh this movie was scary, to me at least at the time but that's how I grew to love the genre of horror even more. Seriously this movie rocked for me as a kid. And that's how I knew the lyrics to "Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This" because of this movie. It bewildered my parents to hear me sing the full lyrics to the Eurythmics version of the song even though I heard the remixed version in the movie but I knew the lyrics. So yeah bonus points for this movie teaching me the lyrics😂🎶
And now I'm gonna wrap this up folks! I'll return hopefully to make part 2 of this so I hoped you enjoy and maybe check a few of these movies out yourselves! See you later!😉

The surgeon general just came out saying 13 year olds are too young for social media and it’s very detrimental to their health, and having grown up with social media, can’t argue with that, but how do you impress on your child what an absolute toxic wasteland social media is and to stay away from it.

Can you name a Surgeon General?
Probably not. That’s because Surgeon Generals aren’t politicians, they’re science communicators. They usually toe the party line, functioning as specialized PR. But if you do know the name of one Surgeon General, it's probably Charles Everett Koop, or “Chick” Koop to his friends.
Dr. Koop, Ronald Reagan’s Surgeon General for both terms, is most recognized by his mustache-less Abe Lincoln beard and colorful bowtie. Americans who were kids in the 80s might remember him railing against smoking on TV, and perhaps even fewer remember the stand he took for sexual education during the AIDS crisis.
But nobody remembers him for what he didn’t do: toe the party line. Koop was an Evangelical Christian, scooped up by the Reagan Administration for his loud opposition to abortion, but at every turn, at every critical moment, he broke with his party and his faith for the sake of science and civic duty. 
He incurred the wrath of tobacco lobbyists when he campaigned for a smoke-free society by the year 2000, lost brothers and sisters in Christ when he insisted that education not condemnation was the antidote to AIDS, and was practically abandoned by the Republican Party when he refused to use his position to mislead the nation about the supposed dangers of abortion.
BUT HOW DID HE DO IT?
How does a deeply religious man separate his religious beliefs from his beliefs as a public servant? How does a Republican align himself with the Moral Majority while fighting nearly its entire platform? Long before the Republican party pounced on Liz Cheney for condemning Donald Trump, before Kevin McCarthy was booted from House Speaker for supporting a democratic bill…. It was Surgeon General Koop who stood up for what he believed was right, and we’re still feeling the effects of it today.
In fact, I believe C. Everett Koop was an unsung hero, and everyone needs to hear his story.
EPISODE 1: C. Everett Koop vs. The Medical Establishment
EPISODE 2: C. Everett Koop vs. Smoking
EPISODE 3: C. Everett Koop vs. AIDS
EPISODE 4: C. Everett Koop vs. Abortion
And if none of that convinced you to listen, maybe some special guests can? The Last Good Republican features historian and podcaster Sadie Carpenter, as well as doctor and podcaster Dr. Sydnee McElroy.

When Glenn Sparks and I wrote our book on social isolation (‘Refrigerator Rights’) we identified the twin patterns of moving (relocation) along with the surge of media (especially social media) as the root cause of our current social distress. As Marshall McLuhan shared ‘it’s the screens, not what is on the screens that is matter’. And so this prophetic and distressing notion has come to full flower. And here we are dangerously divided and segmented. And worse, are now attached with ferocity to our new ‘communities’ and ‘our’ ideas and convictions. Worse yet we have become infamously intolerant of opposing communities that we find to be misguided and even dangerous. Whenever I speak to a group, I ask: “raise you hand if you have family members who no long speak to you, visit you or invite you to their homes based on fiercely held ideas?” And what about the other way? Of course most hands are raised. Where is the solution for this destructive social trend? Who has the answer? This is what troubles me most of all about our country. Where is the leadership that rises above crude passions that demonize ‘those others’? And I find it especially disturbing that many of our loudest voices shout out from their religious convictions! Good grief! No wonder so few want to attend religious practices? The distortions are grotesque and ripping us to pieces. But wait, don’t lose hope. I have faith that rescue is coming from somewhere, through someone. And I’m waiting (and yes, praying and meditating).

I know everybody’s hungry for life experience, but people keep getting this idea that you need somebody else to be robbed of a life experience to experience that experience for yourself Martinez would you agree with that?
Food for thought I was thinking about the time and I’m being very specific about that for a very specific reason
Oh this is fucked
Surgeon general, pick up
If you feel drawn into my world, why did you come around? 220 spic and span?
I don’t tolerate racist Dennis boys.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Does the conscious narcissism in America’s use is absolutely sad
I said the subconscious narcissism you feel as though somebody like Martinez is a deer in the headlights
You could be right she doesn’t see it that way and I feel a couple of yesterday moments coming on myself
My distress and unhappiness should not be why you feel better today. Just remember that.
Anyway, I kind of halfway like her. She has a lot to learn about how to treat people just generally, but still I kind of like her.
I got a little bit defensive because I felt a little bit of that low class lesbian vibe happening, where she already had. Her mind made up to treat me a certain way at jail and if I caught her treating my mother or say that homeless lady that way we would have words, and she would be fired. I do believe that.
And Martinez I don’t know what cop loves me. I mean I know that yes there are a couple of very specific cops who love me very much but I get the feeling there might be somebody that I didn’t expect to give a shit.
Somebody loves me. It might be a bad guy, though all the same. Well, I mean either way, cop or bad guy. It’s kind of synonymous for the same thing usually

US Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy released an advisory Tuesday addressing the “epidemic of loneliness and isolation” affecting the country and laying out a framework for a “National Strategy to Advance Social Connection.”
The advisory is part of the Biden administration’s broader efforts to address mental health, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Monday.
Strong, steady friendships may be an asset to your physiological health, study shows
“In recent years, about one-in-two adults in America reported experiencing loneliness,” Murthy says in the advisory. “And that was before the COVID-19 pandemic cut off so many of us from friends, loved ones, and support systems.”

‘It Doesn’t Work Like That’: Surgeon General Blasted for Asking Black Folks to Check on Their Big Mamas, Stop Doing Drugs and Drinking Alcohol During COVID-19 Pandemic

Adams made the controversial comments about the health disparities communities of color face as they battle the COVID-19 outbreak. He admitted communities of color were not “biologically or genetically predisposed to get COVID-19,” but they are…
