Coffee: the ultimate technology for the human brain. It's the only substance that can wake you up, make you feel alive, and make you question everything you thought you knew about life.
It's not just a beverage, it's a disruptor. A disruptor of the senses, of the senses of time, and of the senses of reality.
In the early days, it was just a simple drink, brewed from roasted beans, but now it's a full-blown industry, with its own philosophy, its own culture, and its own memes.
From the coffee shop to the coffee shop, from the coffee break to the coffee machine, coffee has taken over the world, and we're not even sure how to stop it.
But, as with all great technologies, there's always a dark side. Coffee can be a source of addiction, of anxiety, and of existential dread.
So, what is coffee, really? Is it a drink, a drug, or a form of technology that's been unleashed upon the world?
