[Anonymous No.13813874]

How did coffee get associated with reading books? Is it just propaganda to get you to go to Barnes and Noble or Borders (RIP) for a $7 latte? Ever since I quit drinking this shit my mental clarity has gone through the roof and stress is non-existent. I sleep better and my energy levels are consistent throughout the day as opposed to peaks and valleys. Never going back

Nah. Try Startng Strength if you want to experience similar fatigue. If your organs and nervous system are working overtime to repair themselves you are going to feel like shit eventually, then break down. It's basically common sense.
And alternative medicine is the only real medicine. Modern medicine is a couple hundred years old and already in the process of becoming a vast synthetic plague. Don't listen to the fear mongering and delusional paranoia of modern medicine which is just a theology of grave robbery turning humans into machines. Fetus plasma can only feed so many biobots.

Every doctor I know will tell you that eating healthy and exercising is better than what any medication can do for you. Big pharma is the one trying to convince people otherwise, seeing that they have profits to make. Doctors in the US are sometimes placed in positions where they are forced to overtreat the patient or risk getting sued, even if the treatment would do more harm than letting the patient heal without medication. You are a creating a strawman of a doctor which is not at all representative of real doctors.

Coffee:
All roasts, beans, whatever tastes more or less the same. Yes, some taste better than others but it's ultimately the same drink.

Tea:
Different methods of growing, drying, and preserving leaves result in vastly different tasting drinks. Even within the categories of "black tea" or "green tea" are varieties of tea that share almost no qualities of taste or aroma with each other.

In other words: tea is to coffee as wine is to vodka.

Pynchon talks a lot about coffee in his books. Also, Balzac used to chew the beans directly, the mand would consume enourmous amounts per day. It contributed to his massive literary output.

Now this is an ignorant statement.
What makes you even this? Is it because you've heard that both are stimulants? Do you think aspirin and heroin are the same?

Amphetamine mainly acts as a releasing agent of dopamine and noradrenaline without acting as a receptor agonist, instead it changes the pH in synaptic vesicles. It also acts as an agonist for TAAR1, but thats not very important for its effects.


Caffeine is mainly an adenosine antagonist, not making one more alert directly but reducing tiredness. Any mpnoamine activity is neglible.

Balzac, and coffeehouses in London and Holland were often open offices for clerks of all companies involved in seagrass or news or foreign affairs generally.

Tea is the thinking man's beverage. Coffee all tastes more or less the same. It ranges from espresso to moka/french/drip and then only differs based on additions of milk and sugar in various forms. at heart, it's all more or less the same fucking shit.

tea you have everything from chai to lapsang souchong to puerh to sencha to assam to tisanes, cinnamon or floral or citrus or herbal or other spices, you have tea traditions of dozens of cultures, from the same plant comes green, white, and black, all hugely differing in flavor profiles.

and the best tea is still less expensive to make than the cheapest coffee.
