Been all about this recently. Somehow feeling both under and overstimulated by everything.

Excessively caffeinate I guess? That reminds me, I have a jug of cold brew in my fridge.

Edit: Immediate regret! Pre-made store bought coldbrew, absolutely vile and acidic. No I’m not throwing it out, yes I’m still going to drink it.

I read on here somewhere recently that a pinch of salt in a cup of over brewed tea takes away the bitter taste, and I’m sure the reason given was something to do with the acidity of the tea being lowered.

I might be completely wrong, but it might be worth trying with a small cup 🤷🏻‍♂️

Got it. Mix 50/50 with Gatorade. It’s got Electrolytes, it’s got what plants crave! /s

Gatorade tea would certainly be interesting. I don’t know if it would be good interesting or bad interesting though…

Either way, I just found the thread:

Baking soda. Works for any food or drink to lower acidity at the cost of slightly increasing salty taste (from the sodium)

I suffer from heartburn and acid reflux, so this could be very helpful, thank you :)

Write enormous screeds about how literally insane it is that the world is being actively destroyed at the behest of and for the benefit of a wealthy, powerful and profoundly mentally ill few.

Play video games and work in the garden.

The first likely accomplishes nothing of any note - even if other people recognize it, part of the insanity is that the psychopaths in power have arranged things so that nobody can stop them.

The second doesn’t accomplish much of anything either, but they’re at least situations in which my efforts aren’t systematically undermined and exploited for the benefit of psychopaths. Instead of being rigged so that whatever I do benefits the ruling class, they’re situations in which I can actually make choices solely based on what I think will work best in a given situation and reap the rewards if I choose correctly.
