if you’re having trouble sleeping the best you can do is put a bright object close to your face and look at it for at least 30 minutes. if that doesn’t work you can close your eyes but make sure to think really hard about a bunch of bullshit

This actually works for me sometimes. As long as the light is bright enough to make my eyes tired, and the bullshit is “what if the firewall and the financial calculator lovingly explored each other’s filesystems”
