   1. Social media is actively being engineered to addict you. And you don’t stand a chance since they have an unlimited amount of data on you and other humans, and can feed it to AI to figure out how to keep you stuck on a screen.
   2. Porn.
   3. Caffeine +Nicotine. Never add as you will develop tolerance and have to keep increasing.
