The MAN Experiment

This report details the process and results of the Marlboro Addiction Neuroscience (MAN) experiment performed by the Fumo Transfigurator Institute (FTI).

Observation

Can addiction be formed if the subject believes they cannot become addicted?

Hypothesis

If the subject thinks they cannot become addicted to nicotine, they will not become addicted to nicotine.

Experiment

The subject will take a placebo drug each day over a hundred days. They will be placed on a strict smoking schedule over the hundred days, as follows:

Evaluation will be done to determine whether the subject is addicted. Subject is required to log with video evidence that they have smoked the required daily limit. The subject can smoke anytime during the day, but must smoke right after waking up and right before going to bed.

Log

Day 0

We met with the subject (male, 27yo). We went over the expectations of the experiment and made sure he was aware of the risks. Communication is as follows:

FTI: “Have you ever smoked before?”

Subject: “No.”

FTI: “Do your parents smoke?”

Subject: “No.”

FTI: “Do you have siblings that smoke?”

Subject: “No.”

FTI: “Do you have friends that smoke?”

Subject: “Just one.”

FTI: “What is their name?”

Subject: “His name is -redacted-.” (Friend will be talked about further in the report. From this point forward, friend’s name will be referred to as Alpha.)

FTI: “How long have you known Alpha?”

Subject: “We were friends in high school, so about 12 years. We have stayed in touch.”

FTI: “How often do you see Alpha?”

Subject: “Not often. Maybe once a month. Since he smokes and I don’t, I don’t invite him over a lot. I don’t really care for the smell. He also drinks a bit and I’m not much of a drinker.”

FTI: “You are aware of the expectations of the experiment?”

Subject: “Yes.”

FTI: “Our drug helps prevent addiction. Do you want to be a smoker?”

Subject: “No.”

FTI: “Do you believe you will become an addicted smoker?”

Subject: “No. Not with your drug and my willpower.”

The subject began the experiment the following day. Next check in

Note: Subject was paid $1,000 per week for their willingness to participate in our experiment.

Day 11

We met with the subject after the first 10 days. We went over the daily log videos. We noted that the first three days included a lot of coughing and resistance. The subject did not want to smoke them. The remaining days appeared to be easier for the subject, but the subject said he still did not want to smoke.

We noted the subject had grown a beard. We asked the subject if it was related to the smoking. Subject stated: “Smoking first thing in the morning has interrupted my morning routine.”

Prior to our meeting, the subject had smoked just one cigarette. We reminded them that he had to now smoke four a day. On a scale of 1 to 10 for addiction, the subject rated a 1. He didn’t feel like he wanted to or needed to smoke.

Day 21

We met with the subject after another 10 days of smoking 4 cigarettes a day. We went over the daily video logs and verified the subject complied with the requirements. We noted the subject rarely coughed. The subject schedule was smoking two before work and the remaining two in the evening. We noted that the subject had gained 5.6 pounds since the start of the experiment. His comment in regards to the weight gain: “I found it is easier to smoke if I’m having a beer in the evening. Also, I guess I have been splurging a little more with junk food. Guess I justify a bad habit with another. Like, what’s the point?”

The subject had already smoked two prior to the meeting and was aware he had to smoke four more today to meet the expectations. On a scale of 1 to 10 for addiction, the subject still rated a 1.

Day 31

We met with the subject after 10 days of smoking 6 cigarettes a day. We went over the video logs. We identified that the subject appeared to enjoy his smoke breaks at work and provided a sense of relief. The subject stated when we pointed this out “I guess I like to be able to step outside and the rest of the world kind of stops.”

We noted that the subject had cut his hair shorter. He stated that he was receiving comments at work about him smelling like smoke. He didn’t want them to know that he is participating in this experiment, so he thought shorter hair would prevent this as there would be less hair for the smoke to stick to.

The subject has also gained a total of 10.1 pounds since the start of the experiment. He has increased his beer and junk food intake.

The subject had already smoked 4 cigarettes prior to our meeting. He said he knows that he is expected to smoke another 4 today. The subject rated a 2 out of 10 in regards to addiction. We asked if the subject would like to quit the experiment and he said he still wants to “stick through it”.

Day 41

We met with the subject after smoking 8 cigarettes a day over the last 10 days. We observed the video logs and noticed the subject was smoking a few with someone else. This individual was his friend Alpha. The subject was spending more time with Alpha. Conversation regarding this change is as follows:

FTI: “Why have you been spending more time with Alpha?”

Subject: “One reason I didn’t hang out with Alpha was to our different lifestyles. Now that I am smoking, spending time is more enjoyable as we both outside for smoking.”

FTI: “Do you enjoy smoking with Alpha?”

Subject: “If I’m being honest, yes. It is like an added connection with our friendship.”

FTI: “Did you tell him about the experiment?”

Subject: “Yes.”

FTI: “What were his thoughts? Did he think the drug was working?”

Subject: “He didn’t think it was, but I believe that it is.”

The subject had only smoke 2 prior to our meeting but knew he had to smoke 10. He stated: “Alpha is coming over for a few beers later this evening and wanted to save majority of my daily limit today so I can smoke when he smokes.”

We identified that he refers to his daily smoke expectations as “limits” now. When asked if he would smoke more than his set scheduled expectations if allowed, he said maybe. We ensured him to stick to the schedule.

Subject’s beard has grown larger.

Out of a scale of 10, he stated he was still at a 2. We are not sure if he is being honest or is in denial.

Day 51

We met with the subject. He smelled like cigarette smoke. He said he didn’t notice the smell anymore on him. He even said he was starting to not care anymore if he smelled like a smoker. The subject even said he started smoking inside his house for convenience. The subject said he quit his job as he didn’t like having to wait for smoke breaks at work. His friend Alpha is getting him a job at his road construction company. The subject has been spending most evening drinking and smoking with Alpha. We asked the subject the following questions:

FTI: “Do you see yourself as a smoker?”

Subject: “I guess. I am planning on quitting once this experiment is over.”

FTI: “Have you enjoyed smoking?”

Subject: “Honestly, yes. I see the appeal.”

FTI: “Do you think the drug is working?”

Subject: “Yes. I can quit anytime.”

FTI: “Do you want to quit now?”

Subject: “No. I want to finish the experiment.”

We asked the subject if we could call his friend Alpha. He agreed. Our conversation went as follows:

FTI: “Good afternoon, Alpha. This is FTI - we are the ones conducting the experiment on your friend.”

Alpha: “Hi there.”

FTI: “Do you think your friend is addicted to smoking?”

Alpha: “Yeah, most definitely.”

FTI: “What makes you say that?”

Alpha: “He always suggests we take a smoke break. He lights up whenever he wants or needs to.”

FTI: “Our drug prevents addiction though.”

Alpha: “Well, your drug don’t work.”

FTI: “When the experiment is over, will you support your friend on quitting?”

Alpha: “Probably not. The man’s a smoker. I don’t see him quitting anytime soon.”

We asked the subject what he thought about his friend’s answers. He had no comment.

The subject is starting 14 cigarettes a day. When reminded of this, the subject said “Sounds good. I’m already halfway through for the day.”

The subject had gained additional weight and has shaven his head. He said his friend Alpha suggested it.

Day 61

The subject appeared hungover. He said he had a late night with the co-workers, including Alpha. He admitted that he smoked more than his “limit”. We told him he had to stick to the set schedule and he was displeased, but said he would try his best.

The subject had gained more weight from his drinking. He said he enjoys the “taste of a cold beer and a Red.”

The meeting was short. He acted like he was in a rush. As soon as we dismissed him, we watched him light up a cigarette when exiting our facility.

Day 71

The subject initially did not appear for the meeting. When called, he said he didn’t see the point anymore. He knew he wasn’t addicted, but didn’t need to prove it. He reminded us he could quit anytime. We reminded him of the payment, but only agreed to come in if we supplied him with the cigarettes he would need for the next 10 days.

The subject came in and grabbed his 8 packs of Marlboro Reds.

The subject smelled of smoke and his voice was starting to sound raspy. He coughed occasionally. We asked him why he continued to grow out the beard. He said he can sometimes smell the smoke on it and that he likes it.

Day 81

The subject told us that he thought the drug was still working, but wondered if FTI would be interested in a longer study to really prove the effectiveness of the drug. We said that the 100 days will be more than enough data. The subject appeared disappointed and said, “Oh - guess it is just 20 more days of this then.”

We asked him how addicted did he think he was. He thought about it for a while until he said “5 out of 10, but I think I can still quit.”

The scientists conducting the experiment discussed after the subject left whether it was moral and ethical to continue on. We discussed whether the subject should be given the option to quit before he became even more addicted. Our lead scientist stated, “To be honest, it is probably already too late. At the end of the experiment, we will give him resources to quit.”

Day 91

We showed the subject a photo of himself at the start of the experiment. We asked him what advice he would give himself at the start of the experiment.

Subject: “Do it man - the drug works and you get to try smoking for 100 days.”

We asked the subject if he truly believe the drug worked. He said, “Sure. I’ll quit eventually.”

We asked him if he was ready to quit after the next 10 days. His reply was “I will quit, eventually.”

Day 101

The subject came in. He still smelled like he was smoking. We asked him if he had smoked today and he said, “Yeah - but I kind of forgot the experiment ended.”

We told the subject the truth and that the drug was a placebo. We expected him to get angry, but he wasn’t. After delivering the news, we asked him to honestly rate how addicted he was. He said “10 out of 10”.

We provided him resources to call and offered him nicotine patches to help him quit. He refused both. He said he will probably quit eventually, he he just wasn’t ready. He enjoyed his new life and that he had never felt more free or manly. We asked him how many he had smoked so far today. He stated he had already smoked a whole pack and that he was looking forward to not having a limit anymore. He said he only was friends with Alpha and that his friends disapproved of his new smoking habit.

He said he needed a smoke and left the meeting. We followed him to the parking lot and said we needed one final photo. He stuck his cigarette in his mouth and smiled.

Conclusion

We conclude that a man will become addicted even when he thought he couldn’t. We stand by our research ethically because the subject did not regret starting. He even thanked us for the pleasure.

1,913,369 Ballots Thrown Away

It’s official: 1,913,369 ballots were cast but never counted in the 2016 presidential race. And not just anyone’s ballot gets tossed into the electoral dumpster.

[feelingbluepolitics]

A problem with this type of incendiary reporting is that it tends to widen the pool of people who give up on voting in the belief that voting is meaningless or rigged.

That’s the exact opposite of the approach most needed this November: That everyone needs to register to vote, everyone needs to recheck the status of their registration prior to Election day, and everyone who can must attempt to vote, however they can best accomplish it.

We know there have been widespread voting integrity problems. This article, written by Palast to preview his book, which in turn was written because “[t]he usual outlets for [his] investigations, like Rolling Stone,” didn’t pick up his reporting, closely echoes this piece which was published as an opinion on December 19, 2016:

Skeptical 70,000 black voters abstained from presidential vote

OPINION | Votes should be recounted by hand if machines claim people abstained from voting for president.

We know there will be serious voting integrity problems again; likely far worse under trump.

Vote anyway.

This article by Palast, in a somewhat similar egocentric and populist style to trump’s – although coming at the issue of mail-in ballot problems more from the political Left rather than the hard Right – disturbingly mirrors the effect that trump has been trying to achieve.

trump has pushed the idea that the Left will try to cheat and rig the election with mail-in ballot fraud, which is a debunked lie with no merit. Palast writes that mail-in ballot voting is rigged for cheating by the powers-that-be to disenfranchise Democratic-leaning voters by discarding high numbers of ballots from black voters. There is unquestionably a large kernel of a real and significant problem in these claims, but a good way always to verify news is to see what other news outlets report on the same topic.

Palast is a reputable freelance investigative journalist, who has worked with the BBC and The Guardian, although these and other outlets have not run with these findings of a stolen 2016 election, as yet.

It’s notable that the remarkable presentation of “breakthrough investigative reporting” here has not been picked up in quite this way by other news outlets.

The reference to the US Election Assistance Commission 2016 report lends an official tone to the balance of the article. And yet The Heritage Foundation – utterly and poisonously conservative – cites the same report that Palast does, using it to undermine both mail-in ballots and also cast the Post Office as an untrustworthy, failed enterprise.

America’s Hidden Voting Epidemic? Mail Ballot Failures

A new report has revealed how vulnerable voting by mail can be. It should alarm all who are pushing for all-mail elections: Based on federal

Neither reference gives enough context or enough data for their respective analyses.

That said, there are absolutely problems with our election system, both with mail-in ballots, and with in-person voting, which must be fixed, and which will cause unacceptable problems in the November 2020 election as they have in prior elections. It is untenable.

But regardless of the inherent and bitter ironies involved, we must vote in vast numbers in an attempt to overwhelm these problems, as well as the voter purging, the intimidation, the suppression by voter id laws, the gerrymandering, and other degradations of American voting rights that Republicons have systematically inflicted.

When Democrats don’t vote, Republicons win. That’s the simplest foundational fact inherent in the context of all of these problems. The fact that follows that one sequentially, is that if Democrats don’t get a chance to enact higher vote and election integrity, the problems will get worse – or worst of all, become moot when we lose our troubled voting democracy altogether.

Another piece of investigative reporting on this issue of discarded ballots and other problems is much more extensive.

As States Struggle With Vote-by-Mail, "Many Thousands, If Not Millions" of Ballots Could Go Uncounted in November - Type Investigations

The coronavirus pandemic has spurred states to boost vote-by-mail, raising worries that inconsistent policies could lead to problems countin

[“Type’s investigative newsroom, Type Investigations (formerly The Investigative Fund), was founded in 1996. It is known for producing long-form investigations, primarily for national magazines, into abuses of power, inequality, and government malfeasance. Unlike a conventional outlet that maintains its own distribution platform, Type Investigations primarily publishes via partnerships with print, radio, and television outlets. It is one of the only women-led investigative newsrooms among Institute for Nonprofit News member organizations.” - Wikipedia]

The article by Type Investigations is in-depth and a Highest recommendation.

There are various problems with discarded ballots. The most seriously problematic issue is the disproportionate count of whose ballots get discarded at the highest rates. Young and first-time voters, and black voters – both groups representing high proportions of Democratic voters – are most likely to have their votes dismissed at a level that is probative of deliberate election tampering, in ways similar to how Republicons in charge also attack these groups with closed and hard-to-access polling stations and abbreviated early voting options.

For example, see this analysis of notorious Georgia’s dirty Republicon-controlled voting count patterns:

Analysis | Here’s the problem with mail-in ballots: They might not be counted.

That's especially true for younger, minority, and first-time voters.

“A disproportionate number of younger voters, people of color and first-time voters had their mail ballots rejected for those two reasons [because of an error on the return envelope or because they arrived after Election Day]. We account for a battery of individual-level details available in the Georgia voter file and mail ballot data, using a two-stage modeling approach. The first stage identifies who is more likely out of all of Georgia’s registered voters to cast a mail ballot. The second stage models who is more likely to cast a mail ballot that is rejected. This approach allows us to account for the fact that voters who choose to cast mail ballots may be different than those who choose to vote in person. Using Georgia’s mail ballot data, we are also able to find why the ballot was rejected.

“Our findings are clear. The figure below illustrates, for example, that black voters across Georgia’s 159 counties are disproportionately more likely to have their ballots rejected than white voters. If white and black voters had their mail ballots rejected at the same rates, all the counties would align on the 45-degree line. They do not. There are several outliers, including Polk, Taylor, Atkinson and Glynn, the same county in which Ahmaud Arbery was fatally shot while running in a predominantly white neighborhood.

“Our study shows that this pattern holds for other racial/ethnic minority groups, too, as well as first-time and young voters, especially those between the ages of 18 and 22.

“Why are ballots rejected at such disparate rates?

"It’s not entirely clear. On the one hand, there may be reasons some groups of voters are more likely to make mistakes when voting by mail. Many new voters — for example young and first-time registrants — may be unfamiliar with how to vote by mail, or not know how much postage is required or how far in advance to return the ballot to have it arrive on time. Mail voters don’t have the benefit of interacting face-to-face with poll workers who might be able to help them navigate any difficulties.

"On the other hand, that can’t fully explain why racial and ethnic minorities are less successful at filling out and returning a mail ballot. But these differences do track with research on voting by mail in Florida, as well as other research showing that racial and ethnic minorities tend to receive lower-quality services from election officials, at polling places and in other bureaucratic agencies. This might also be the result of gaps in voter education programs or inconsistencies in reviewing standards across Georgia counties.

"Mail voting may be necessary to ensure public health, but without much-needed protections — prepaid postage, voter education outreach by local election officials, an opportunity to address a missing or mismatched signature, helping voters by picking up and returning mail ballots, and counting ballots postmarked (rather than received) by Election Day — it could disenfranchise some voters.”

The key take-aways from all of these articles are that 1) our election systems currently embody serious, even egregious problems, which mirror those issues of partial and selective fairness and justice rampant in this country overall, and 2) we can’t just give in to it, and not vote.

The Democratic strategy to rid us of trump and his complicit Republicon-controlled Senate is to vote in such huge and overwhelming numbers that we smash through the Republicon cheats and racist – as well as other – voting disenfranchisement efforts, so that we can keep the House, flip the Senate, and wholly reject trump.

This calls for all of us to try, in the hope that enough of us can succeed against the deliberate obstacles. Register to vote. Recheck registration. Vote. If voting by mail, follow the ballot instructions exactly. Vote early. Check to see if your vote has been counted. See if any problem can be corrected.

Don’t give up without even trying. That’s a win for all of the wrong people, those who are attempting to achieve that exact result one way or another, and now we have the virus to contend with as well. But we have to try.

Thanksgiving Prayer

It’s that time of year again when family obligations come calling, and many of us are pulled reluctantly into social commitments that we care little about. But even in mixed company, you can internally meditate on the true meaning of the season; thankfullness.

Be thankful for your penis. Be thankful for porn. Be thankful for poppers. Be thankful for masturbation. Be thankful for your addiction.

Though Thanksgiving may require us to spend too much time away from the Batehole, don’t forget that Black Friday follows right behind. A day when nobody socializes, because everyone is assumed to be out shopping, engaged in the mad addiction of capitalism. But little do they know, you’ll be at home feeding your powerful penis while they all feed their greed.

Take that special day to be extra thankful to your penis. Bate longer, huff deeper, goon harder, shower your penis in everything it asks for. Commit yourself to showing appreciation and in the process, let Priapus guide you deeper into addiction.

Give thanks to our one true god, and you shall be eternally rewarded.

Kneel down right here. I want to chat.

You’ve done a good job on your chores this week. I’ve really been impressed with your work and I’d like to keep you on as a domestic servant on a weekly basis.

I know it’s been a rough week for you. You haven’t cum in 8 days and that chastity device has been so restrictive, but I think it’s really getting your head in the right space for service.

I’ve got a little chill time before a call I have to take. Why don’t you take a break in my pit for a bit and you can start to learn my scent. Eventually, the goal is to get you leaking just from olfactory response entirely. I think this is a good first step.

You ready for that?

Soaked in his own fluids, this old man has been caught and put into sensory deprivation for a slow but effective torture. His body is completely motionless and unable to feel any ccntact with the real world. He has been previously cleaned, inside and outside, a small tens unit battery operated over his cock and balls with electrodes attached and his ass plugged with a vibrating dildo controlled remotely. His ears have earplugs on, so the process of brainwash can be performed easily, after hours or days of having his body and mind completely trapped. Eventually his thirst will be calmed by pouring some water down a tube down his throat, altogether with other drugs the captor want to use to help the brainwash process, including viagra to keep him excited and cumming every couple of hours. When that will happen, a slight struggle will be seen from the outside of his trapping suit, and probably a moan in the distance. But nobody will be there to help him with his orgasm, he will only feel his worst nightmares arrive right afterwards, when the dildo keeps rubbing his prostate and the electrodes increase the shocks in his genitalia. He will be a different man once the captors will be done with him.
