not a hill i want to d*e on but it continues to be super weird to me how normalized caffeine addiction is https://twitter.com/TenuredRadical/status/1249036827991908354

i tried posting this tweet earlier but couldn't and i think it was because i didn't censor "die" hmmmmmm

seriously try describing the modern world’s relationship to caffeine as if you came from a civilization that didn’t have it

“oh yeah there’s this drug that everyone’s addicted to because they need it to do their jobs and shit, with strong tolerance and withdrawal effects” what??

“oh yeah there are no age restrictions either, our children drink it because they need to do well in school - oh yeah, school is where the state imprisons and indoctrinates everyone’s children while the parents are working the jobs they need caffeine for” what??????
