The craving hit me pretty hard this morning...

Not saying it's you, but it's funny how some people condemn "drugs", then totally give caffeine addiction a pass.

[ - ] Gowithit 11 points 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 14:46:45 ago (+11/-0)

I dont destroy my life or others around me for coffee.

[ - ] Sector2 3 points 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 15:07:31 ago (+3/-0)

Not you either. Just an observation triggered by the word 'craving'. It's come up in previous drug posts where someone condemns pot smoking, for example, but is addicted to guzzling coffee for their caffeine addiction.

I hate fucking stoner rationalizations. People who smoke weed are hippie degenerates brainwashed by Jews:

“But it’s natural, maaaaaaan!”

“You drink caffeine, so you’re an addict just like me!”

“Do you overeat? Then you’re a piece of shit just like I am, maaaaaaaaaan.”

“Do you long for a woman’s touch? You’re addicted, maaaaaan.”

I too hate stoners, Queenie.

People who smoke weed are hippie degenerates brainwashed by Jews:

Your opinion is based on living in a hell hole and associating with employee types. Obviously there are 'stoners' who smoke weed, and not just in NYC. There are also people who aren't 'stoners' who smoke weed.

(If you've ever had a beer, does that make you a skid row alcoholic living in a tent on a sidewalk?)

Same with coffee. There are people who literally make coffee with pre-roasted and pre-ground beans that come in a can!! There are also people who make and drink good coffee, and don't "swill it down in an addictive compulsion".

“But it’s natural, maaaaaaan!”

Tea leaves, coffee beans, marijuana flowers, opium paste, and kratom are pretty much equally natural.

Like the "maaaaaaan!" though. Takes me back to the late 60s/early 70s. Note that I heard my first spoken "dude" on the day a couple dudes landed on the moon in 69, from a 12 year old girl named Hogg.

To play devil’s advocate on your contrast between having a beer and smoking weed: A normal person can have a beer or two and sober up quickly. The weed these days will get you super high and there’s no gradual transition into being high like their is for drunkeness.

Just a thought. I don’t like either.

[ - ] Sector2 2 points 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 21:58:24 ago (+2/-0)*

Not much difference between having a beer and having a hit of weed. Sure, multiple hits will get you higher, as will multiple ounces of alcohol. Smoking concentrate even moreso. Whether beer or bud, the quantity ingested matters.

I believe alcohol is pretty much alcohol, no matter if beer, wine, or liquor. Marijuana technically has around 30 different types of highs, even if most commercial bud is more about weight and less about the quality of the high.

[ - ] Gowithit 0 points 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 22:14:27 ago (+1/-1)

the quality of the high.

I half jokingly say the weed most people buy must suck because these people.. its non stop all day.

It may have started out as "natural" way back when but since then its been used as a weapon.

I dunno. She was a chubby back then and already annoying. Both her parents were large too, so calling me dude that far in advance might have just been a fluke.

Lots of people don't grasp the benefits you can get from less than 5mg. No nerve damage pain. No chronic pain I don't want to stab people all the time.

Some people it stops seizures immediately. Lots of people don't try it because of the stigmas association with it. I stay at home and play with my dogs.

Do garden shit with my wife, help the kid with homework. You want to say I am a degenerate for a natural substance, whatever.

Shit goes a lot easier in life if you are just nice and respectful to people.

Some people do.

That must be some really good coffee.

The difference between medicine and poison is the dosage.

You can't have it because of heart issues otherwise you would drink it too.

I generally have no antipathy towards non-abusive drug use, and have just ordered a couple pounds of green. It's the hypocrisy I point out.

Not sure how much caffeine is in pu-era, but I've begun to appreciate that a lot lately. Black teas too, but some pu-erh can be amazing. This, for example: https://yunnansourcing.com/products/1999-basket-aged-loose-leaf-ripe-pu-erh-tea-from-menghai

[ - ] Ragnar 1 point 9 monthsJul 11, 2024 00:23:00 ago (+1/-0)

Puerr is high caffeine, and high in tannins but it’s not all antioxidants. It’s a traditional tea from yunnan but I wouldn’t touch it knowing the hygiene and safety standards in China

[ - ] Sector2 0 points 9 monthsJul 11, 2024 13:30:08 ago (+0/-0)

Am counting on their testing and selection process, and the need for reputation in tea producers. Hopefully I'm not drinking anything too gross. 🤞

Coffee drinkers have the africans and assorted other shitskins producing the beans, so it's a crapshoot either way.

It seems like the crazy factor has been going off in peoples heads lately around me. You can tell people are being pushed to their limits and are burnt out. Lots of angry people at their braking points. Lets hope the anger is directed appropriately at (((those))) responsible for all this turmoil.

[ - ] TheBigGuyFromQueens 2 points 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 17:45:24 ago (+2/-0)

Most people’s braking points are 1 car length behind for every 10 mph of speed.

Well that would be nice if it were true.

and bite the hand that feeds them? haha now now we were taught better than that. Never. I hope along with you but no way the majority will turn off their air conditioning.

Coffee is good for white people. If it has negative effects on you then go half caf. If it still bothers you then probably nigger in the woodpile somewhere

Not only are they that annoying, they're also full of sjit 99% of the time.

Yes, yes they are.

Coffee is very bad for your digestion, and you can't deal with stress

[ - ] Leveraction 0 points 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 23:53:22 ago (+0/-0)

Correct in my case. Real bad indigestion and stress after years of drinking coffee. I drink maybe a 1/16 of a cup. Have gone to tea. Much better alternative

[ - ] Cantaloupe 0 points 9 monthsJul 11, 2024 00:30:09 ago (+0/-0)

Well you're not supposed to eat the grounds /jk

What does it do?

[ - ] OftenWrong 1 point 9 monthsJul 11, 2024 09:20:40 ago (+1/-0)

that is your baseline being lower. It will take 8 months to 2 years to recover and even then might not be fuller, you could take cordycepts( cordiceptin is the opposite of caffine basically) and that would cause the reverse adaptation and heal faster. cordycepts also has other stuff in it that alleviate the negative feelings you have that are caused by the adenosine effect that caffine withdraw makes bad. If you take enough they can cause you to adapt and your baseline will be like being on caffine without being onn it ( which your body adapts to down slightly above baseline rather than below like caffine causes)

[ - ] CasualObserver 2 points 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 15:46:23 ago (+2/-0)

Switched to organic tea and enjoy being able to resuce caffeine usage with solid decaf options and the variety. Haven't had coffee for a while. Being sober helps reduce the need for caffeine too.

[ - ] GroundskeeperWillie 2 points 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 16:59:49 ago (+2/-0)

believe it or not caffeine helps you if you're detoxing from alcohol.

[ - ] CasualObserver 0 points 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 21:22:15 ago (+0/-0)

Caffeine is great, but not if you need it to get going every day.

[ - ] Leveraction 0 points 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 23:47:22 ago (+0/-0)

Agreed

[ - ] TheBigGuyFromQueens 1 point 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 17:39:06 ago (+1/-0)

I don’t drink coffee, but I used to drink a Monster or sometimes 2 every day. I stopped 5 or 6 days ago and I don’t miss them.

[ - ] Sector2 1 point 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 14:38:00 ago (+1/-0)

I just ordered another $220 worth of tea last night, but you've reminded me to get some more green from https://happymugcoffee.com/collections/green-coffee. An early morning coffee can really start off the day.

[ - ] Fishsticksforever 1 point 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 13:54:51 ago (+1/-0)

I drink coffee very infrequently now days, but drank it everyday when starting between 4-7AM as it was commonplace in the trades. I can also smoke 10 cigs in a drunken night and not crave one until I'm drinking again. Though I haven't had one in over a week while drinking because I'm old now and cigarettes are dumb.

I guess I'm built different

[ - ] Sector2 3 points 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 14:40:12 ago (+3/-0)

At least avoid the commercial cancer sticks and buy organic or make your own. Lots of leaf to choose from online.

[ - ] Fishsticksforever 1 point 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 20:08:53 ago (+1/-0)

I won't smoke menthol, but when I buy them I get American Spirit Yellow. I try to only smoke half the pack and give the other half away... usually paying back someone I was drinking with earlier.

[ - ] Sector2 1 point 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 21:45:45 ago (+1/-0)

Those claim to be organic, which is at least better than cigs full of chemicals. Should still be an occasional thing because of the tars and crap that gets deposited on the surface of your lungs. Smoke a few through glass to get an idea of what happens inside your lungs. You really need those to keep working to keep you alive.

[ - ] Fishsticksforever 1 point 9 monthsJul 11, 2024 21:47:22 ago (+1/-0)

Agreed, I try not to smoke, but when I'm drunk it's a guilty pleasure. I've rolled from Top Hat or something like that before, but I'm lazy and cigs are bad.

[ - ] big_fat_dangus 0 points 9 monthsJul 11, 2024 01:28:54 ago (+0/-0)

In an ongoing effort to fix my sleep, I only drink coffee on my days off when I have time to enjoy a nice cuppa at home, and don't associate it with work in any way. I don't miss it, but still enjoy it very much.


Wish to Christ I could do the same with alcohol.

[ - ] Trope 0 points 9 monthsJul 10, 2024 19:46:37 ago (+0/-0)

Congrats. 40 or so days here.

Everything has returned to normal except for my Type A sense of passion and conquest. I spend less time fixated on the future and more time going through the rounds of each day. Still waiting for that burning passion to return.

What's a good whole bean coffee?

Fuck coffee. Go with the mushroom coffee alternative. Less jittery more even energy thru the day
