i am torn. on one hand i believe that coffee becomes a crutch very quickly - the stimulant effect is just you returning to baseline. on the other hand it's just so tasty and the modern world requires stimulants to function.

you wouldn't need coffee if you were a farmer. you will probably need it or an alternative if you're another cog in the machine like we all are
