not always, i’m currently ignorant of the world news, i made the choice to become ignorant becuase my own head is making me sad enough, and i do not need the aid of 20 daily articles about mass killings of babies, oppressing minorities, or whatever bullshit the US is up to this week

Well, I recently lost, like, 50% of my credibility as an intellectual as I stopped smoking. So I guess I am now somewhere in between both ends.

Thanks, it did trigger a bit of a depressive phase, which I sort of expected, but I managed to get through that one.

You still drink black coffee though, right?

There are more advanced levels where you replace the cigarettes with alcohol, then the alcohol with cigarettes again, then the cigarettes with regret, and finally you quit the regret cold turkey, and all that’s left is the bitterness of the coffee to match your soul.
