I switched from nicotine vapes to non-nicotine ones a while ago. I still can't seem to kick the habit. I couldn't last a day. I've been trying to quit for like 3 weeks and it's not sticking. Seems like I'm stuck. Any advice?

I do have two ideas. One is to drive to a different state (I live in USA) for a day or two and take a mini-vacation. When I'm travelling or on vacation, I don't feel an urge to vape for some reason. Then when I come back, I'll already have 1-2 days of no vaping under my belt. The problem with this is that I have plans for the next few weeks, so it'll be a while before I can try this. The other idea is to switch to a flavor I actively hate, like tobacco.

I tried to search for how to quit vaping when nicotine isn't the problem, but I couldn't find anything. I don't need nicotine gum or something; that would actually start a new addiction. I don't think I have a unique problem, but it definitely feels like a niche case. So I don't even know what to research in terms of quitting strategies. I had a hard time finding non-nicotine vapes in the first place.

I'm looking for weird, out-of-the-box games that are actually good. They don't need to be obscure, but I find that it helps sometimes with the weirdness. I need to take advantage of the Steam Summer Sale.

My definition of weirdness is something on the deeper end of weird; around the top 10% mark for uniqueness. Call of Duty games obviously don't count since they're very normal. But also something only weird on the surface (like Borderlands) doesn't count either. On the other hand, games in the top 1% of weird tend to be art pieces rather than actual games, or simply not that good.

I enjoyed the following weird but good games: Katamari Damacy, MiSide, Rez, Alice: Madness Returns, Nights Into Dreams, Inscryption, Killer7, I Love You Colonel Sanders, Needy Streamer Overload

I have a plane that I loop cut a bunch of times and deleted pieces to form a walkway. Now I want to extend one of those pieces. How can I do this?

Sorry in advance for the extremely basic question. I've been stuck on this. I tried extending it, but then the piece is loose. I tried to press f to fill, but it makes a triangle. I tried a few other things that don't work.

My problem: I have a severe case of artist's block, going on for months now. I'm looking for advice or perspectives on how I can break through it.

I'm a creative person. I make rap, 3D art, drawing, and videos. I need to constantly express myself through art. I said "need" deliberately there. It's been with me since I could hold a crayon. I've been doodling in class nonstop for my entire school life. I was doing skits using a webcam when those just got invented. I've been animating in Flash since I got my hands on a pirated copy.

Recently, I think I'm making art for others, and that's inhibiting me. I found that people really enjoy my art. For example, when I make a rap video - my friends love it, share it, and mention it in passing. I enjoy it when others enjoy the art. It's like I brought something cool to the world, and it validates my skill. It's like 30+ years of doodling means something. Maybe some part of it is that others perceive me better.

The problem with others enjoying my art is that I'm not making what I want to make. I want to make rap songs with cursing and/or violent subject matter, but then I can't play it to my kid or my more sensitive friends. I want to draw cool monsters, but people enjoy my videos and animations more than static drawings, so it wouldn't be something I'd share.

I don't monetize anything or post it publicly, so that's not the issue.

Solution?: I think I should draw for myself. At least for a while. And I should forget if anyone will like my stuff or not. If I want to make art in a static image format instead of a video, I should do it. I've always wanted to try a 3D apartment/house, which might be boring to others; maybe now is the time.
