True! Also NoxApex - where the heck is he? He’s always around.

I was wondering that also. Hope he's OK.

And here I am thinking I should have more coffee! How much do you have per day?

I went from two pots at times, down to a little over a pot and a half, now trying to get down to just one pot.

I noticed that I wasn't having any tea (I usually switch to tea after 5), and I was barely touching my water that I try to drink every day.

Plus I was just starting to feel too wired.

For me, it's one pot in the morning and tea for the rest of the day. Every so often I'll make a second pot, but those occasions are rare. I don't know about you, but tea just makes me feel better. Less wired, of course (especially after switching to decaf tea).

When I was younger I could my social failures down the fact that the majority of people I was around were sociopathic, terrible human beings. Now, after a yet another meetup cringe where nobody seemed to like me, I have to see myself as the consistent factor here. Starting to think I might have some autistic traits.

Maybe shave your head, and grow a beard. Do you think you’re going into the meetups with a positive vibe? Or are you going in defeatist, or with some other negative emotion, because people sense that.

That's probably how I should do it. Just make the pot in the morning, drink what's in it, and that's it, then switch to tea and water for the rest of the day.

I like my coffee in the morning to wake up, warm up, get going. But I like tea at night because I feel like it's soothing and cozy. I like to wrap up my day with a cup of tea.

There are some news topics that I just can't interact with at all.
It causes me too much anger, and makes me lose my clarity and knock me back to a mental state I am trying to outgrow.

I need to avoid news topics that that trigger me, and just focus on figuring out how I can do well.

You drink a pot of coffee a day? How many mugs is that?

Any more than one cup first thing in morning and I’m too wired.

For me it's like two and a half.

But, my coffee cup is mega...I think it was intended to be a soup bowl, but I've always used it for hot drinks.

So, yeah...I'm probably way over-caffeinated as it is

It never crossed my mind either...

I've started to ask myself WHY am I getting triggered about certain things, then worked my way thru the process and was able to not get triggered by certain things anymore. I realised I had certain issues for stupid reasons and once I sorted out my reasoning I was okay.

You know, I honestly didn't know that it was possible to go from being SO proud of a kid to being SO dissapointed in a kid. I would ask where I went wrong, but this one isn't on me.
How can you idolize someone that is so screwed up, that has made such a mess of his life and seemingly has no intention of doing anything about it?

Probably the only time I'm happy is when I'm asleep. When I'm asleep and having beautiful dreams I start forgetting how crappy my life is, and that feeling of being temporarily dead feels really good too. .

Insurance companies are money grubbing monsters (no surprise), there is no reason my car insurance should have gone up 266 bucks in a year.

Ah, insurance. The necessary evil. I've had two positive interactions with insurance companies over claims recently though. And in the past I've had a couple of claims as well that went well. I probably haven't gotten back the amount I've paid in premiums though. Although, we have gotten a great deal back from our health insurance over the years, so I can't complain.

But but but...inflation? That and they can because you have to have it. (I assume it's mandatory in Canada too)

But be thankful you don't have a kid. Mine went up over 300 a month simply by putting my kid on it. It's all just ridiculous.
