    People who think they’re an island. I don’t know how to describe it. People who operate like little effort should be expended on the fact that other humans exist around them and they’re part of society along with some responsibility for that society. Doesn’t matter if it’s stopping in the middle of a busy sidewalk in a group and blocking it, driving the speed limit in the passing lane, or utterly destroying the use of spelling, grammar, and punctuation in an online post forcing the reader to translate it into something meaningful. People unwilling to return the courtesies and efforts those around them offer by default.

    Coffee :(

    The “virus wombo combo” of mono and COVID fucked a lot of things up permanently, but most of them have rebounded to an acceptable state. Whenever I drink coffee it fucks me up, even decaf coffee. Makes me feel tired as hell, stressed, overstimulated. It also seems to last for almost a full day. Drink coffee in the morning, and I have a big chance of sleeping badly.

    Not that it’s guaranteed to hold me back…

    Every now and then the sane part of my brain forgets to pay attention and my coffee craving gets the better of me.

        Not nearly as bad, if at all. I drink a lot of tea on work days (probably over a liter) and have never had issues with that. I don’t regularly drink energy drink or cola etc, but he times that I had them also didn’t have the same effect.

        While caffeine also doesn’t necessarily make my body happy, I do think that there’s something else that upsets my body when drinking coffee. Maybe something to do with dehydration or histamine intolerance. Idk.

    Starch. This limits what I can eat. Unfortunately I didn’t know this growing up, so I ate a pretty carb heavy diet which caused health issues which caused me to be grouchy a lot. Took until I nearly 40 to figure out that I wasn’t just an unstable asshole.
