I love caffeine. I mean, man, caffeine and nicotine. I right now I'm kind of easing back on it. The delivery mechanism matters. You don't want to smoke, vape, dip, or snuff. You get cancer. People go, oh, vaping's not bad. Popcorn lung is real. People hate me for saying this. Vaping is bad. Not as bad as smoking. Vaping ain't good for you. And what flavor's the worst flavor? Any flavor?

It's all bad for you, man. But the gums and the pouches, provided it's a low dose, it's very habit forming, but you know, three to six milligrams or something on occasion, this is the problem. People go pretty soon, they're doing a whole canister a day.

Nicotine's a very interesting drug because it's a stimulant, but it relaxes you too. But it does cause, excuse me, vasoconstriction. And that's not good for all the stuff we were talking about earlier. You want blood flow to the brain and to your extremities. And so some nicotine early in the day, little bit, no big deal with caffeine to get work done.

Yes, you can. It's just, you need to be more determined and focused on it. You know, remember it's how quickly the dopamine comes in with porn and methamphetamine, cocaine, and all of that. It's how quickly gambling raises dopamine. You know, the stuff we're talking about, work, focus, learning, all that, it's work.

I mean, it's hard work, but the effort that precedes dopamine is a completely different beast because you're in control and it doesn't put you in the trough. But I did see a, you know, I guess we don't call them tweets now. What do we call them? On X, some guy made a billion dollars. And a couple of weeks later, he said, I don't know what's going on, but I feel like I'm suicidally depressed.
