French cooks act like they’re trying to seduce the food, Chinese cooks act like they’re the last engineer on an overheating spaceship desperately staving off core implosion.

Why WOULDN'T I think that Donnie Darko is a movie artifact that was created as the result of a time war battle that occurred on September 11, 2001?

I worked at a company that still had stuff like this, the tangible residue of a Golden Age. Typical thing, company started in the 1920s, had a major heyday in the 1950s-1960s when the entire country was booming. Ancient black and white photos of ancient sales meetings featuring crowds of grinning long-dead salesmen in long-demolished hotel ballrooms hung on seldom-traveled carpeted hallways.

The proverbial split-level "corner office" was enormous with its own broad conference table and bathroom the CEO could disappear into mid-meeting like slipping behind a mirror at Versailles. The office was full of rich mid-century modern details like heavy drapes, sharp lines and dark wood paneling.

Padding around the building you would find glassed-in fish-bowl offices and incredible conference rooms complete with built-in bars for serving three martini lunches to grandees with gleaming coifs of Vitalis. I felt like a dirty shepherd wandering the toppled ruins of Rome.

We see our home planet as a whole, lit up in spectacular blues and browns. A green aurora even lights up the atmosphere. That's us, together, watching as our astronauts make their journey to the Moon.

Good morning, world! 🌎

We have spectacular new high-resolution images of our home planet, all of us looking back through the Orion capsule window at our Artemis II astronauts as they continue their journey to the Moon.

Michael Pollan quit caffeine for 3 months… and realized his “normal” self was just caffeinated.

First week: “Felt like I contracted ADD. Couldn’t concentrate, couldn’t write, veil between me and reality.”
Month 1: Functional but miserable.
Month 3: “Slept like a teenager… but I was still a mess.”

First cup back:
“Waves of well-being → euphoria → like cocaine for 20 minutes.”
Then: irritability, compulsive cleaning, unsubscribing from 100 listservs, reorganizing sweaters, plotting the next dose.

Classic addict behavior — even he admits it.

Chronic caffeine lowers adenosine sensitivity (your brain’s sleep-pressure signal). Withdrawal = fog/ADD-like symptoms. Re-dose = euphoric adenosine clearance after 24+ hours of buildup. Baseline becomes caffeinated baseline.

Pollan’s takeaway: “Yourself is caffeinated… and that is baseline for many of us.”

Ever quit caffeine cold turkey?
What hit you hardest — the brain fog, the irritability, the insane euphoria on return, or something else?
