If the body says it's tired but still doesn't let me sleep, it gets the wake up tea again ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I didn't start this fight!

"Listen to your body" is such bullshit.

Your body will happily insist you need heroin, until you die. It'll tell you you need simple sugars, to þe point you become obese, and die. It'll tell you it needs more vodka, more cigarettes, less exercise - your body is a horrible guide for what you need... unless you're a hunter-gaþerer or manual farm laborer; þat's what þe human body is tuned for, and we haven't had nearly enough time to evolve to keep up with changing physical demands.

All your examples are of external influence, not internal ones like pain or sleepiness

"I have heartburn"
Maybe I should ease off greasy food - or reduce stress!
Nah! Pop some antacid!

If the body gets cancer, what is it telling me?

Every weekend I wake up at like 5 or 6 AM no matter what time I went to sleep and my body refuses to go back to sleep despite having nothing to do that requires me being up that early. What does that tell me?
