My wife and I have been taking Eudemox off-label as a mood synchronizer. Fortunately her moods seem to be dominant, otherwise I’d be dragging her down down down.
It’s a pretty electrifying exercise. Do you have somebody you’d trust with each other’s emotions?

Social scientists have expressed concern that teenagers’ widespread use of reciprocally-aware RFID-transceiving mood rings may lead to mass social-sorting by mood: Happy teens will only encounter other happy teens, angry teens will only encounter other angry teens, and so on. Parents counter that this does not represent a change versus the historical pattern of pre-RFID teens.

I was afraid of this.
Scientists using functional MRI machines can see your decisions approximately twelve hours before you make them. Preliminary studies indicate that your brain “banks” decisions during REM sleep and then spends them down during the course of waking hours. This suggests that extended periods of wakefulness can lead to decision deprivation and, eventually, decision debt.
This probably has dire implications for free will, but might be pretty awesome for the sleepers’ rights movement.
