  • I've been there before. I notice it when I develop a tolerance to caffeine and it doesn't wake me up.

    Depending on how much you take, your withdrawal might really suck major. If you can afford to lose a weekend or any 2 day consecutively, go cold turkey those 2 days. You'll lose those days cause you'll feel like absolute shit when the headache kicks in. But then on Monday go back to caffeine but only around half of what you usually do per day. You'll feel amazing getting the caffeine again after the cold turkey weekend, and you're tolerance should go down. This has worked for me in the past.

    Or wean slowly. Whatever works for you.

    Those 2 days suck though. I love caffeine...

  • Anecdotal, might not apply to you. I knew a guy like this, was a roommate for a while.

    He had a similar issue. He said he would literally set an alarm clock in the opposite side of his room, so that he would have to get up and walk over to shut it off, hoping that would wake him up. According to him, in his sleep daze he would go shut the alarm off and go back to sleep, and not even remember doing it... Crazy.

    Regardless, I noticed he drank tons of cheap diet soda. This contains caffeine. He'd drink around one or sometimes two 2-liters of this shit per day, from the afternoon after work, until late into the night, usually gaming.

    I told him about the caffeine. He said it made sense, and that also "it might be why he had trouble falling asleep at night"... Fucking DUH.

    Long story short. He tried cutting it out for about a week. Mentioned a minimal improvement in being able to wake up, but said he felt like shit the whole time, so went back to his old habit.

    He probably felt like shit due to the cold turkey caffeine withdrawal, which I tried to point out. He went back to his old ways.

    Anecdotal, but check your diet, caffeine intake and times of day, exercise, consistent sleeping patterns, etc. That's my 2 cents.

  • There's also the other illegal activities like money and financial fraud, tax evasion, money laundering, etc. This was huge with Epstein, and everybody's focused on pedo stuff. They might think if they can disprove the pedo stuff then everything will go away.

    Who knows though. It could be all of the above, and much more. Working with Russia illegally in some way? There could be treason there in some way involving the president of the US. Wouldnt be surprised if Musk too, and others.

  • Uhhh, this would actually explain a lot right now...

    But I think magic jesus definitely would've raptured up all the innocent kids and such.

    So it'd be like what we're seeing now with trump in charge, just with all the decent people gone.

    But then again I don't actually know how it would work, due to the simple fact that fairy tales aren't real.

  • Nah bro

  • Got the same message LOL, I was also one of the down voters.

    Had no idea mods can see voting stats.

    This mod is weird and creepy for the message alone, stalking down voters WTF? Obviously thin skinned and on a power trip.

    The freedom of anyone being able to start their own instance, then get a load of the ones that own their own servers... Some will be assholes on a power trip. It's bound to happen.

  • Christians support this. Overwhelming support from the evangelical Christian community.

    There's no hate like christian love.

  • Nah I don't think so, I'm logged in. The fact I'm using revanced isn't relevant, my mistake.

  • My apologies.

    I'm using revanced so didn't even think about that.

  • Not political.

    I watched the entire thing, no politics.

    Conspiracy yes, but that's not mentioned in the sidebar as against the rules.

  • I will maybe get destroyed for this comment, as I have in the past, but oh well...

    The trans in sports topic shouldn't be considered this binary issue that defines your political alignment or morals.

    It undeniably seems more complicated than some make it out to be. Use silly over exaggerated examples: if a man becomes a steroid popping powerlifter professionally, then decides to transition to being a woman, should he then be allowed to compete in women's powerlifting competitions? Over exaggeration, but there's a point isn't there? I don't really know, but it seems like in this thought experiment, she would easily beat out all other competitors. Insert any other sport where men dominate over women due to biology. Is this a bad way to think? If so, why? You made the example in swimming.

    I will forever support and vote politically to protect all minorities, including the LGBT community. I will always reject bigotry. But saying this is not a complicated issue, just doesn't seem right. And questioning it in this way, doesn't make me a bigot. Let trans athletes compete in any sport? Categorize them differently? I don't know, Im not sure it's that easy.

    At the end of the day, this stuff really is a distraction that creates infighting to shift focus away from more important things. The oligarchy likes this distraction because we're not talking about how they're exploiting all of us. This is the kind of thing where I say "I honestly don't know, but why aren't we taxing the billionaires?"

    He's just divorced.

    Fucking LOL!

  • Your argument absolutely has merit. However the opposite is that there might be people there who are aware there's maybe way more to their small world, and want nothing more than to see it.

    I care more about the latter, but mainly because that's how I would think. If we found out there's an alien superhighway passing over earth hidden from us, and they're keeping us "protected" and not allowing contact, I'd be very pissed off. I immediately would want to leave, meet the aliens, learn their ways and knowledge, etc...

    Just sayin', it can go both ways. Ya never know if you don't talk to them.

    Also, it seems kind of morbid and archaic in a way, keeping them protected. Not like a zoo by any means, but still. If we knew for certain they all wanted to be left alone, that'd be better.

  • If you're a sociopath, let them suffer and die slowly, homeless.

    If you're not a sociopath, and decent, tax the rich and give them a good UBI so they can play and do art or music or video games or what the hell ever.

    Easy peasy lemon squeezy.

  • I totally agree with your thought here, I've thought the same thing many times. I've see many very overweight cops stopping at gas stations and whatnot.

    How can these guys chase down an assailant? Cops should be required to be fit. I'd say they need to prove weekly they can run a mile in like 8mins? Faster? Then, once per month they need to prove they can do a 5 mile, like 45-50 mins? Seems fair.

  • Upgrade was not a "B" movie by any stretch. Low budget doesn't mean B. Upgrade was more well done than much of the "A" stuff that's put out.

    But obviously this is opinion and depends how you define B movies.

  • Yikes. Listening to him talk, and his security guy or whoever that was, leaves a really sickening feeling in my gut. They come across as psychopaths for some reason. It's that cheap charisma that feels so off-putting. I worry what those types of billionaires do in private that will never reach the light of day. Epstien Island type stuff we'll never know about.

  • If a foreigner blocks an American from using a drinking fountain when they're thirsty, the foreigner should be immediately executed and the fountain should be marked as whites only... oops I mean Americans only.
