I've used concerta, ritalin, vyvanse, adderall, modafinil, cocaine (& coca leaf tea), maeng da kratom, caffeine, nicotine, and probably other things I'm forgetting for focusing purpose with academic/intellectual work. In my opinion, this is only necessary or even really justifiable in regards to reading that you are not fond of or find boring; it is actually more efficient to read sober assuming that the topic or text is of enough personal interest to you to keep you engaged. If you get in the habit of requiring stimulants to read even just books that you like, you will be a poor reader. Save them for dull slogs that you need to brute force your way through. It is also wisest and most sustainable to stick to low doses, only consume orally, and preferably have a full meal and a proper night's sleep prior to consuming relatively early in the morning. And don't smoke any meth.

At this point I think of repeatedly reposting my shelf as a form of shitposting

It's gratifying

Probably 50% of these books were acquired used/thrifted (gifts, Goodwill, Half Price Books, thriftbooks.com, mom n pop places, appopriating abandoned books, etc.)

Just reorganized to fight the scattered stacks throughout the house. Detail pics to come.

I was a little frustrated with Trip because it read too much like how I probably sounded when I was first experimenting. It's basically just semi-novice internet drug culture distilled into book.

Will do in regards to the paintings.
