SiriusXM.
I felt I needed it to help me get through trips to and back from work. I always listened to comedy stations and nothing else, because the music resembled nothing I hadn’t heard before on repeat through retail stores and FM radio. When I couldn’t afford SiriusXM, I downloaded a podcast app that seemingly worked without needing a data plan or a subscription (I know the episodes are probably downloaded ahead of time on wi-fi). With this, I felt I don’t need Sirius anymore.
Monster Javas
I was an addict and still a recovering addict of this drink. It’s the only Monster-related beverage I always had, never caring for the other flavors. For a while, starting back about seven some odd years ago, I drank a can and I felt energized. Then as time went on, it turned into just a drink I’d have for the sake of comfortedness, because it was no longer doing anything for me anymore. Plus it was burning a hole in my budgeting because cans of these weren’t exactly cheap on their own.
After being off from a single can after three weeks, I actually felt a lot better. Probably not going to get back into them.


Money, home, family. Nice to have. Apparently not essential.
Diogenes?!
I’d tell you, but you’d have to get out of the light.
