I got up this morning and thought "I need a coffee". I'm not interested in pour overs, I want that shit ready when I get up. Are people still doing drip coffee makers in 2026? Or are they all bullshit machines full of vendor lockin?

I will say, as a ADHD haver. Caffeine just hits some people differently. I can drink coffee have my medication and still sleep. My wife drinks black tea before bed and is up all night.
There is also something to be said about being ND and having various disabilities like autoimmune issues. In some cases caffine can reduce pain. I don't think there is a lot of research on this yet, but from personal experience and the few things I have come across something is there.
Aka to all the above. Self medication is a hell of a thing.
huh, wonder if that's an active analgesic effect or a consequence of focusing on something else taking one's mind off the pain.
There's a vasodilation effect, which I think is the theory for why it can help with migraine onset.
That has been one of the theories.
Some people metabolize the caffeine faster then others and people who metabolize it fast feel a lesser effect apparently.
