Idk about the monologues and the actual live shows, but the sketches that end up on YouTube afterwards are consistently hilarious. Could always be confirmation bias (only the good ones end up on YouTube) but they’re still great.

Of course! If you do to the caffeine powder route, please do what the other commenter also recommended: get an mg scale and dose carefully. Coffee normally runs in the ~60 - 300mg range, depending on number of shots, etc. Going too far above can be dangerous, depending on your individual tolerance, height, weight, etc.

Basically, do some research, figure out what a safe amount for your individual situation is, and go slow. Don’t dump spoonfuls of powdered caffeine into your tea because of some idiot’s recommendation online.

At the end of the day, what you need to do is either drink a lot more of it, or concentrate it somehow.

Just guessing wildly (no idea if these ideas would work), but the best options I see are to cold brew it (put in water in fridge and let steep overnight). Cold brew coffee tends to be higher in caffeine than normal brew, so it might work the saw for tea. Might also make the tea insanely bitter, idk. Second would be to essentially distill your tea. After it’s done steeping, take the tea out and boil it more, until most of the water is gone. Repeat a few times until you have a lot of boiled down tea and then drink it. This might get disgusting quick, but would be effectively the same to drinking multiple cups, just with less overall liquid.

Or, I suppose, buy a kilogram of pure caffeine powder and add a few mgs to your tea for an extra boost (maybe that’s more acceptable than energy drinks?).

Hope these ideas help! Just some off-the-cuff suggestions I’ve never tried

I’ve had reasonable luck with Alaska Airlines the two times I’ve tried it, and Fedex once, I think.

I think a blue AG in addition to Blue Gov is the real recipe for change in the state. They might actually be able to slow down, and hopefully reverse, some of the worst things companies are doing to the state

Essentially, the “blue wave” means the Democrats have a majority in both chambers of Congress. They have broadcast widespread opposition to the MAGAgenda, and have the power to do so. Congress passes laws and confirms presidential appointees to executive offices. With Democrats in power, trumps agenda will no longer be rubber stamped by Congress, i.e. they have the power to refuse to confirm trumps nominees, pass laws to counteract executive orders, and control funding streams to rogue federal agencies. Unfortunately, there is not a blue veto-proof majority in Congress, so trump will likely veto a ton of legislation, but that’s preferable to what the last two years have been.

Congress also has the power to open investigations into all the gross misconduct the administration has engaged in, as well as remove offenders from office.

Of course, it remains to be seen how much of these powers will be exercised, but we should remain hopeful.

Holy shit not only did she win, he actually conceded. Didn’t keep bitching forever.

In a surprising turn of events, no we are not. Even more surprising, it was a resounding enough “No.” that the court didn’t even ask for California’s side of the argument, they just said no. It’s almost the appropriate response to this bullfuckery; the only thing missing is impeachment, removal from office, and the entire administration on trial for treason.

Notably because AI is criminally underegulated. Milk is also underegulated, but not by quite as much.
