Monster and Weed for me.

Also not exactly a healthy life but it's "affordable" (I know sodas are expensive but I need that fizzy stim) whereas proper healthcare is not.

I envy you people. I'm so sensitive to caffeine I'm only able to have a single cup per day and it has to be before 11am or I'll take hours to get to sleep at night. Other daytime caffeinated drinks like soda and tea are off the table altogether.

My poor Rancilio Pro X only sees action once a day.

The Ballmer Peak is very real with respect to gaming. Though it's very easy to end up on the other side of it, in the middle of a Rocket League game, causing all of your friends to hate you.

I've been using snus for 2 years now, it does help but if I run out, I go straight back to other nicotine consumption methods. Currently trying to tone down my dosages. I've weened down from 12mg pouches to 6mg while maintaining the same amount of daily intake (~4 pouches/day). Beats smoking cigarettes that's for sure.

It really does lol. In my helpdesk queue I have some tickets from over a month ago, sometimes I need to reach god-like focus to finally break down the steps / mentally process their request and respond to them haha.

Look, i can pick a lock or tie a tourniquet with only vague attention. Helps, even. I can compose a poem or analyze a piece of writing, do sone light soldering or whatever with a moderate amount of focus.

If replying to emails was easy, everyone would do it.

Happens about once a week

Sooooooo, Red Bull?

Or even better B complex!

Some people are just naturally sensitive to shit like that. A friend of mine has a similar hyper sensitivity to THC, a fact that I am unbelievably jealous of rofl
