When I was in high school, I was asking my history teacher if Hitler was considered a “good Christian” by contemporary theological standards. I was that dude.
I actually measure my caffeine and water intake (from all beverages). Currently for 2025 my daily average is 10.9 oz.
I don’t drink a lot but I am picky. I only consume specialty (which is coffee graded on a 0-100 point scale; 80 points and above is called speciality). I brewed cold brew for my STLV trip. So I have ~50 oz of cold brew concentrate for the whole week.
Overall I care more about the beverage I am drinking and how I drink it (my daily driver is a Hario V60), than how much I drink.
EDIT: If you are in the U.S., I recommend the subscription service Mistobox. That is where I get my coffee.
You were describing the plot of “Caretaker”, the pilot of Star Trek: Voyager.
An alien abducts ships from one part of the galaxy to this side of the galaxy. Why? Because they are dying and are looking for a compatible mate. Unable to do so, they destroy the device that brought them there (at the wish of The Caretaker) to protect another alien species. So they get stranded 30,000 light years from Earth.
Hugh you see me, Hugh you don’t.
