tired: waking up without a book

wired: waking up and perusing a chapter of the decline and fall of the roman empire while paying to heed to the fact that one dwells in absolute filth. plebs cannot in2 ultrawoke /lit/ degeneracy
>*patrician gouty arthritis intensifies*

inspired: absently dipping pages of gibbon into your all steamed-milk latte and eating them whilst gazing idly out the window at starbucks, a veritable monument to indifference to all manner of social expectations not directly inspired by the court of versailles, waiting for the clearly nervous assistant manager to ask one to leave, and turning upon him a jaundiced eye, as amused as it is bored

"Their personal valour remained, but they no longer possessed that public courage which is nourished by the love of independence, the sense of national honour, the presence of danger, and the habit of command."

during the weekend hell yeah, I dont even leave bed for two hours. Usually some non-fiction or pop-scishit followed by whatever novel or short story collection. I work during the week and dont sleep much so it's a rush when I get up. I'm jelly of all the literati here that can sit down with a mug every morning.

I wish I had time in the morning to read and exercise before going to work.

Been taking a nootropic stack in the morning and it's a big improvement over just coffee alone. At the very least take L-theanine with a cup of coffee and put some coconut oil in it.

It sucks wasting that focus and energy on a wageslave job.

I usually write first thing in the morning. Got nearly 2000 words written so far today, plan on writing more as the day progresses. Got drunk last night and enjoyed it.

I woke up, drank some cold coffee leftover in the pot, made some spicy curry ramen, and sat outside and ate the ramen and read some Tolstoy. I got some ramen on my book but it just adds flavor to tolstoy's style

Wake up 2 hours earlier and go to bed earlier. Use your focus and energy in the morning before you go wageslave.
I went through wheelocks Latin and learned ~1500 vocabulary words in a year this way.
Before that I read ~400 pages a week before work.

I have tea with my book first thing in the morning because I'm too lazy to make coffee. Plus there is free coffee at work.

not necessarily together. For many years now I've been reading in the bus going to school or work in the morning and then having a coffee. feels pretty good.

The fuck are nootropics and why is everyone talking about them suddenly? Glorified vitamins or what?

Government mind control technology marketed as brain stimulating vitamins

>Phhft...government. Like the government even exists anymore. Enjoy replenishing your (x) with overload slurm. Oh you think that's a reference do you. Did you ever think the government just prepared you to agree with taking in alien seepage by normalising the practice through a cartoon first? Fuuuck. Seriously.

Vitamins that help your brain basically. usually harmless herbs and what not
