>muting your instincts with soma so you can earn more fiats?

I actually love programming, and when I was refering to "programming work" I was specifically refering to my hobby projects.

> So is hunger. So is survival.

Unlike sex-drive, hunger and survival is very much aligned with what I want. I have to eat so I can keep doing things that I love (programming, creating music, etc)

While sex-drive is a hardwired instinct to procreate and have children - which is very much polar-opposite of my best self interests.

More over I do NOT want to have sex with any of my EXes or bar slobs or hiring prostututes. It just seems "like a good idea" under an altered state of mind. No thank you, very much.

I'm not my body.

And I'm not even my mind half of the time (especially when overloaded with the horny hormones).
