In the movie Take Your Pills, they mention Warhol taking a drug similar to Adderall. Wikipedia says it was Obetrol[1]. As an amphetamine I imagine it had a profound effect on him and his art.

Though it is fascinating that he never participated in parties. That is totally not the narrative I bought into with him. How good at fooling us he was.

He was always observing.

Someone you would refer to as boring and creepy

Also, very intelligent, imaginative, talented, and creative. But still, I admit, creepy.

I'm reminded of Marilyn Manson, née Brian Hugh Warner. Not to compare them, of course. But according to his autobiography, The Long Hard Road Out of Hell, he was also "boring and creepy" as a child. But somehow he made it work. As did Warhol, on a much larger scale.

It is easier to focus on the negative qualities of the outsiders, thanks for reigning me back into the light.
