    I honestly think driving and League of Legends brings this out of people for the same reason but I have no evidence.

    There must be something about relying on the actions of strangers and participating in an activity with measurable and communal “right ways to do things” that brings out so much vitriol.

    Perceived slights, overestimating one’s own ability, shared misfortune on mistakes, I could go on forever.






  • This might sound extreme but it took my partner and I deciding to have large meals for breakfast and lunch and then not eating after 1pm. There’s this health YouTuber Bryan Johnson who tries to perfect sleep, and this is one of his strategies.

    Digestion speeds up heart rate, so ensuring your stomach is empty around 9 lowers it significantly and helps make you super sleepy.

    We’d usually have a light breakfast, something simple like a couple eggs for lunch, then a massive meal in the evening. Freeing up the evening is super liberating because usually we’re burnt out after work but still need to cook. We basically reverse this schedule.

    Meal prep is somewhat important to pull this off, but we’re finding easier meals as we go. Helps to cook in the morning as you are well rested. Bananas around 5pm are fine if you need a boost because they digest in under an hour.

    We now fall asleep within 10 minutes of going to bed (meds or no meds) and wake up without an alarm between 5-6am. We then either cook, game, or work on personal projects with full energy.
