I had that, it was a combo of too much build up in my system, and the particular stain.
I got healthy for a bit then I was fine (not much of that strain left, so I pul it on the bottom of the pile).
Suggest returning to an different favourite or one you like and know well. But listen to your body - when it says stop you stop. If it’s saying quit, then you don’t have much choice.
You could throw one at someone with a message attached.
He’s Mr. Burns but less lovable and entertaining.
On YouTube, people like Bisan Owda visit some of these places, you can see what it’s like.
I agree, autocracy sucks!

Corporate Personhood, all the rights of people, none of the responsibilities or jail time.
…and not a status an average person would allocate them, but for some reason judges and politicians are just that anti-humanist.
Amazon has a healthcare company now too…
…and they own twitch.
The problem is getting the pictures to work from. People who don’t want to be found aren’t giving the CIA pictures of their locations, and I’d imagine the CIA already knows what road signs look like in different countries, or where certain mountains and other features are.
The problem is getting the pictures. It’s intel collection, not processing.
I have a theory; if this individual was in Ops, then a corridor, their brain may have said - hang on, I was just in Ops, then I left …and no one was left in Ops. I’ve left Ops unmanned! This is a dangerous situation for the station!
…and if that’s going on somewhere in the mind, whilst one is also running late (merging those worries), at the same time as passing through the middle of a set piece - then yeah your brain is going to have a confused questioning of what reality is being occupied, what concern is to be followed given the circumstances at hand.
…either that or tachyons were involved.
Good, it’s the only reliable sign of intelligent self-awareness there is, to the point that all children progress through it, starting out as bad liars, and getting better at it.
LLMs however might just be stupid, or stocasticaly incorrect.
…and all so they can steal our collective content, creativity, and every piece of individual thought or content we’ve ever communicated online.
…with the aim of exploiting it to make billionaires richer.
It’s pretty difficult to control a lot of the economy still, especially where international concerns like the OPEC price setting cartel, yet oil prices are often blamed on leadership.
…but also, establishment politicians have a pretty fixed economic ideology that doesn’t change all that much, further constraining their reactions which are mostly classist.
Then there’s macroeconomic policies like interest rates, which globally Western governments seem to prefer to leave entirely up to central bankers.
Add removal, pocket further advertising can choosing to appear in, simple bad coding, or are they doing abmassive AI study to see how different paddings affect our choices?
Who knows!
The billionaires behind the think tanks are doing better than ever, that’s the point of the think tanks. None of this is going away even if ut lulls. It’s a sustained effort.
Tim Pool, David Rubin, Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro (whose daily wire was started with fracking money from Dan and Ferris wilks), Andy Gno, (whose post-millenial was started by an Israeli real estate billionaire)… They all made money, huge amounts of money. Tim Pool was making $400,000 an episode twice a month for years… And these are thevlow level defenders of the billionaire Libertarian think tanks.
Trump officials probably made so much more.
So it doesn’t really matter what happens, we can be sure efforts will not go away. Dwindle, but this is what they know how to do, and they’ve been handed massive wealth in the process… They’ll use that wealth to continue thier efforts.
You can “not buy” that viewers would be that dumb (many are) but that’s not the point. The machine has been paid, the political apparatus to produce the far right media will continue in many different forms.
— sorry for the wall of text — (Up to you whether you can be bothered reading it)
No offense, but when you say you believe in talking sense to people, have you been specifically occupying their rightwing spaces and trying to talk sense into them for the past ten years?
Most people haven’t, those who have in an ongoing/consistent way, will understand it’s not the community controlling the ideological messaging being posted repeatedly EVERY SINGLE DAY, the community is complicit in its brainwashing, but they’re not the majority stakeholders or main sources of the crypto-fascist extremist economic Libertarianism currently posing as conservativism and “Classical (free speech) British Liberalism”.
Ergo, violence isn’t necessarily a constructive answer where you’d essentially be attacking people who are merely complicit in their own brainwashing (often self-indoctrinating for very personal and individual reasons) - leaving the question of: well what is the answer to these groups then?
I don’t have a single answer or silver bullet, and it’s probably upon the genuine left to now layout many answers on the table, including violent revolution, and parallel governments of mutual aid, but also, extending to culturally corrective efforts (consistent generational brigading/infiltration)… and even all the way down to the solutions of the establishment left.
But I think the big problem is that all of these can and will be folded back into the system. Incorporated. Worked back in, either by tyrants, profiteers, democrats, or PR agencies… So it becomes a question of - what parts of the system will proposed solutions necessarily extend, and will those extensions aid us to think outside the system, beyond it, beyond the current limitations of our own lives and societal limitations.
I would say mutual aid, and parallel governments/services probably do this. The system’s responses to these tend to generate more rights, more service responsibilities, a better system, with more empathy.
Violence is better in times of direct fascist/reactionary violence, this might be more appropriate if Trump’s fascism becomes violent again…
…and cultural solutions beyond PR campaigns, they can be valuable but without solid education in far left discourses, around unionism, marxism, anarchism, mutual aid, black liberationism and civil rights, labor history, schools like the Frankfurt school, ect. then people end up as establishment leftists…
…so it’s also important to figure out how to extend resistances there too (resistances towell meaning but moderate leftists drifting right into centrism or further)…
But ultimately I figure it has to be about knowing how the system will react (and fold/co-opt answers presented into its self), and predicting how those reactions either extend problems or extend solutions/further possibilities…
…with the goal being the liberation of as many people from the struggles of class oppression under capitalism, as possible.
It’s not an easy task, nor can it easily be thought about. Anyways, that’s all I have.
Sorry again for the length, thanks and congrats if you got this far.
Part of the checks cut get reinvested in the propaganda that gets more checks cut. It’s a whole corrupt system, as attested to by this list of think tanks backing someone like a Jordan Peterson:

…you can research most rightwing media and personalities and make lists and connections (some if Trump’s for instance run through Roy Cohn, the original red scare and the mafia for instance).
It’s likely the same for some leftwing individuals to. It’s the reproduction of this culture, and the economic loops that perpetuate the toxicities of the current systems.
…and it will keep going long after Trump is gone.
I didn’t write them off as overly dramatic, nothing of the sort. They’re dangerous (for some of the reasons you point to, division), and it’s a very well organized, well funded, and well oiled machine that keeps them dangerous. Funded by technocratic and Libertarian billionaires.
So I agree with you, that it’s an economic issue, but we can’t just all sit down and “fix it” (that’s a pipe dream) - you can’t sit down with those invested think tank billionaires to solve the problem any more than you can play Jenga with someone who wants to smash the tower before it’s built.
It doesn’t work that way.
That’s about caffeine, not coffee exactly, also beware studies that say ‘might’.
