Sometimes you just need your brain to shut down and reboot. Sleep is the obvious solution, but sleep is slow, tricky, and time-dependent even on a good day.
The defining attribute of the power switch is that it always works. Doesn't matter if the rest of the system is literally on fire, if there's power running the switch will work. Hard cutoff, but usually recoverable.
For me, the next best thing is loud, busy music and a bit of food. Blots out input, makes it harder to think, and keeps my hands occupied.
Works faster and most always doable.

Nightly Notes
It's a shame we can't close our ears.
I wish I could focus. Not today, hopefully tomorrow.
