In one of the coffeeshops I like to work in and the barista just told a ICE pig to get lost. Gonna tip her $20 on my next cup.

I ask as always:
What were these mythical "third places that previous generations had available to them?"
The whole idea of "third places" is just so much Camelot mythmaking.

Coffeeshops need to bring back couches and comfy chairs. Nobody wants stools, corporate minimalist chairs, or wooden benches.
What’s your most old-coded opinion? Mine is that the Apple Watch is the least value added product* on the market today. It’s like what if you had a Fitbit with a bunch of apps you never used and you have to charge it twice a day?

People loudly interviewing for jobs on the phone in coffeeshops don’t seem like the kind of employees you would want.

Oh man. I dunno where dudes like this hang around these days but coffeeshops used to be absolutely rotten with them. They would come over to my house and lecture me about Marxism while eating all my food without asking until kicked their asses out
