Other What currently makes your life awesome?

Coffee upon waking.

Tea until lunchtime. Sugar and milk, please.

 

Everything is, but tea has additional lead, cadmium, chromium, and pesticides etc etc, and that's before you get to the nasties in the bags.
Keep sucking that shite into your body pal, I'll stick to water

 

That's where the taste is

 

Spoke with HR in confidence. There's a lot more going on behind the scenes, and it's been confirmed that the only reason for the offer is that apparently I did very well in my current position, it's ready for a handover now, and I can move on to a position where I can have a bigger impact on the company.

Decision is almost made now, but I'll give it a few more days. Didn't think 2025 would start like this, but I'm not complaining.

 

I'm in the water camp, but I insist on it being boiled. Perhaps a little malted barley, hops for taste, and yeast to kill off any sugars which are the real health hazard. It's quite palatable after that, and I always drink it from environmentally friendly glass bottles and aluminium cans, no microplastics for me.

 

You seem to like Pepsi though. Strange that.

Y'all need to go touch grass and ask yourselves "does this affect me? Does this concern me?"

 

Pepsi Max if you please, I'm far too old to be messing around with the full sugar versions

 

Or maybe smoke grass and calm down

 

Pure diHydrogen Monoxide is far to dangerous for human consumption.

 

As little as a teaspoon of this substance is enough to kill someone.

 

Tea while waiting for coffee to grind and brew

Coffee, coffee, coffee.

Copious tea for the rest of the day.

 

Maybe try hydrogen peroxide, H2O2…

 

Only the finest caffeinated caffeine for me, thank you very much.

 

Back home recovering

Bit ouchy though. Need to be crazy careful how I do regular things such as sit down, stand up, get on bed etc etc

Zero regrets except the usual: all transfem peeps regret the month or two following surgery as its misery

 

(Not so) fun fact, it would only take 15.36 grams of 100% pure caffeine to kill an 80kg person.

The LD50 - the dose which would kill at least 50% of a given population - for caffeine has been measured in rats to be 192mg per kilo of body weight. Rats are a good proxy for these kinds of measurements because they have similar (but not identical) metabolism to humans. Since… y’know… it’s kinda unethical to subject a bunch of people to a scientific experiment that might kill them.

In terms of the “average” cup of coffee, that equates to about 113 cups of coffee in a very short space of time. Although, by drinking that much coffee you’d consume about 30 litres of water, which would kill you long before the caffeine did. (Source)

 

An interesting article there. Finishing yourself off by drinking coffee, seems a little impractical...
