Um. That sounds so weird. My kids always liked colors, I like colors, about the same amount as always. The blue, blue sky. The vivid pink of the bougainvillea, we all notice these.
I don't have particularly colorful decor though. More like neutrals and muted colors with splashes of brighter.
We are in Florida and the universities are fine, except for the loss of the New College (may RDS rot in hell for what he did to that school). But if they are interested in engineering they wouldn't have needed the free school.
If it's cool here, it's probably fine everywhere. Colleges are filled with kids from different places.
Maybe tea would suit you better? It contains the L-Theanine others here have recommended, and usually has less caffeine.
You could also just make smaller servings if you want to drink coffee twice, literally just use a smaller cup, or don't fill it all the way?
Aeropress might be good too - it makes a nice strong tasting cup of coffee but the water is not in contact with the coffee for as long as it is for drip coffee.

Is the one I have. It sounds good, you can make a lot of different noises with it.
Why do you ask? What sort of intolerance are you having?
I don't drink it until I've been up a few hours and not within a few hours of sleeping, that works for me.
When young though, nothing felt better than sleeping on amphetamines or caffeine. So many dreams and so refreshing. I can't do it now, too close to sleeping just makes it hard to sleep.
I think if you wouldn't use it as your wallpaper at work because it is inappropriate for work, that's NSFW. So yeah at my job that would be NSFW.
My regular shampoo is Malibu C Hard Water Wellness, it is not too harsh and works so well in our water. Not Pert cheap but can get it for around $30 a liter usually and that lasts me a looong time. I love that stuff. Doesn't dry out my hair, does clean and rinses clean.
My teens (one girl one trans boy) are crazy about that Old Spice Fiji scent, and the laundry scent Suavitel Fresca Aroma Del Sol. I think the Fiji does smell a lot like the clean clothes.
I'm not a fella, but either
Phone and husband
Or
Purse (keys, phone, wallet, work badge, hair clips, vitamins & medicines, measuring tape, lip balm, hand cream, cloth to clean glasses, crow whistle, gaming dice.)
It's harder to think about "enough" in places like India (or even the US) where there is so much inequality.
But I would define "enough" as comfortable. Not worried about bills, buying whatever groceries you want, a good living situation and enough cushion that an emergency won't make you homeless.
The addiction to more, more, more is a disorder like hoarding is.
Well I have kids your age, so a literal generation gap? Yes.
I think Lemmy has age diversity, more so than other platforms.
Recipe is in the non alcoholic pinned post.
Funny looking but really good. Made a half batch of the Verdita syrup, my jalapeno was not spicy but I guess that's better than too spicy. Mojito Mint.
Next one I may use tepache, not tonic, and spicy it with some fire tincture. But it's very good.
This is delicious. Fruity, tart, round in flavor.
2oz cognac
1oz Giffard Abricot
1oz Heirloom Pineapple Amaro
1oz lemon (a little more than an ounce, lemon was juicy)
Shake everything, a coupe would be ideal but it's too hot now to have an outdoor drink without ice. I wouldn't make any substitutions or corrections so it should probably have a name, but I can't think of one. The cognac and apricot are French, the Amaro is American Hipster, the flavor smooth as hell, feel this should be easy but my brain is fried from work.
The rain lilies are happy, and I am enjoying the rain with a paper plane. So happy the rainy season has arrived at last.
What are y'all drinking?
Well, this was quite a journey but it's good.
I was going to have a margarita with our dinner of chicken and black bean enchiladas, oh no, used almost all the tequila making a batch of margarita and one of Paloma for memorial day. Ok, plug the gap with mezcal, the good one. Measure the juice from my measley lime, nope not enough, juice my last lime, well now it's too much but I don't want to waste it. So a smidge of simple. I'll be damned, it ended up very good but I do think it is because of the good mezcal.
1oz Tequila Ocho claro
1oz Del Maguey Chichicapa
1oz orange liqueur
1.25 oz lime
.25oz simple (1/1)
I am making tepache, and juiced the fruit of the pineapples. This is heavenly, if you don't have the pineapple Amaro a spiced and slightly bitter but not too heavy amaro, like Toscana might work, or Ancho Reyes original but I highly recommend the Heirloom for fruity drinks, it's so good.
2 oz fresh pineapple juice
2 oz bourbon (stronger is better)
1 oz Heirloom Pineapple Amaro
1 oz lime juice
Tajin
I first mashed the tajin in a mortar and pestle. Wiped the rim of the glass with the squished lime and rolled it in the tajin, put big ice cube in the glass. Then shake everything else together and pour into prepared glass. My pineapple juice is very, very sweet this time, you might need to adjust if you have a more acidic one.
They are trying, yes. I have a kid at a state school in a science major and she isn't getting any of that. The one in high school is getting ripped off but honestly they do call the kids by their chosen names and just ignore a lot of the culture war rules.
I think it's hitting the K-12 education department at the universities harder, and anyone coming here for an education degree is making a mistake already.
