And all his human weakness in the other picture

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Sadly not all. He also had a major alcoholism problem for decades. He did finally overcome it.

Cigarettes shorten life expectancy, and can be quite costly.

They’re directly inhibiting long life and prosperity.

True normally, but he died at 83. He did suffer from COPD though, and it did end up killing him. So I imagine his last years were relatively unpleasant.

Yeah, you’d think that vulcans would smoke weed since they believe in the IDIC.

Infinite doobies in infinite combinations

Smoking anything still puts particulate in the lungs.

Edibles would be preferable.

I'm trying to imagine a Vulcan struggling to stop giggling.
