    Every time I go back to re-read Transmetropolitan I get a little more sad that we have not fixed any of the issues it highlighted back in 1997.

    and not only that, but the finale:

    Where the smiler’s true nature is laid bare for all to see publicly has been tested and simply does not work in practice.












  • Back in my teenage years, we used to do all night LAN parties, and anytime we did one of those I would be awake for ~35 hours before crashing and sleeping for 12-14 hours. I do not recommend this to anyone. It feels awful.

    You are thinking about staying up all night and then doing a full day before going to bed at a reasonable time to get your schedule on track. This is the devil talking, do not do this, it does not work.

    The best action is to just go to bed at a reasonable time tonight, even if you’re not tired. Lie down, close your eyes and relax. Even if you are awake for longer than normal, you will fall asleep eventually.

    You will be tired tomorrow, but I guarantee you will feel way better than if you did not sleep at all. Then when it comes time to sleep again, repeat the process. After about 2 days or so, you’ll be on the correct schedule.

    As far as general habits go, avoid caffeine during the afternoon or the evening, and try to avoid screentime an hour or so before bed.
