    I wish I could be talented and have that kind of family with all the big talents and humor. It's warm and kind and feels together a pie in the sky. They'd stick by my side no matter what. I've been lucky to have what is now that I can enjoy those things in other people. Gotta be there to experience this dear era. 💋

      Thank Carson Productions, which rescinded their takedowns. I had two strikes from that. Then, last Friday morning, UMG took down the two Prince performances on LS. That got me the third and fatal strike, and the channel was taken down. No way to create a new one.
      Then Carson came through after I pleaded with them. They’re great people.

    Anybody normal would get sick from chain smoking, Not sure if that is something your body gets used to or you are born with. I remember when I smoked certain things would make me chain smoke, like drinking driving a car ,and gambling etc, And besides the drinking I would get sick after chain smoking 5 in a row. Not violently sick but my body would be giving me a sign to stop. So I wonder if chain smokers had those feelings at the start and continued until their bodies got familiar with it.

    • @sandradee1579
      @sandradee1579 Před 2 lety +1

      Over years your body builds up a higher tolerance for the nicotine intake, therefore the amount you smoke is both habit & need and your body doesn't send a signal to stop. If one is a social smoker of 5 in a row it will make you sick cause you're not smoking all the time. It's like a non drinker drinking 5 shots?
