Where else can you get a pot of tea and cake until 3 in the morning? Ugh, it’s awesome. They have a bunch of old chairs and artwork in there. When I’m in cafe Reggio I’m always like why isn’t every cafe like this? Why does every cafe look like a scandinavian wet dream? I want table service. I want coffee mugs. To go shouldn’t even be an option. To go where? You’re already here.

☕Excellent coffee, gorgeous aesthetics, no wifi/laptops, just vibes and Italian goods with a no-nonsense menu. The baristas WILL hit on you (or is that just my pretty girl privilege?) but will do so in a respectful, sexy way. Best cafe to yap with a pal at in Montreal - the only downside being that it’s located downtown.

😃I’m a new student at Depaul and have spent a surprisingly short amount time searching for the best place to chill, get caffeine too late at night, and do some homework. I spent some time surfing google, yelp, reddit, random blogs, and other sources, to find a cafe that closed after 7. It was a bit hard because Chicago is a city that DEFINITELY sleeps. One day I skipped class because I just wasn’t feeling it… took the train to a new rec, and found one of my favorite places ever. Ritual Coffeehouse basically directly underneath the brown line Irving Park stop. Best chai in the city, random amazing baked goods (if you catch them!) and an overwhelming collection of vinyls, so you never hear the same song twice here. Great vibe to hang with friends, focus and get work done, or to sip a latte and performatively read feminist literature hoping to meet your new match. It also doesnt hurt to mention they‘re cozy and green patio, for when there’s too much going on inside, or it’s just too nice outside to let it pass you by. Love this place so so much. VISIT HERRRR.

😱I've been a very jealous person at times. I'm sure you have too. My biggest pet peeve is people gossiping or complaining about people that they are actually just jealous of. I try my best to notice when I'm acting like this. It's annoying and a waste of your brain. When you're jealous of someone it's because they possess something you don't have. So if I'm feeling jealous I ask myself what do they have that I want? And then I can just add that thing to my ever changing list of desires and detach it from that person.

🥬I started watching this again recently after I found out my girlfriend thought it was a show (a la fear factor) where people try to survive in a shark tank. Last month I thought about starting a bath mat company after not being able to find a bath mat narrow enough to fit in my bathroom. Watching Shark Tank is a good reminder that just because I could start a bath mat company I probably don't want to.

🪣I can rarely explain why I like this video but I’ll try. At this point on the internet there’s a million hours of content that are more realized than this. Oddly satisfying Instagram accounts. Food pics. Made up games on tik tok. But Koki made this in 2006. We were still a few years off from the food pic and people weren’t really being stupid on the internet yet. They were being dumb and they were being idiots but stupidity is like simple and kinda smart and self-aware. The video reminds me of abstract geometric painting with the saturated colors and basic shapes of all the objects. Like I see it the same way I see a Kazmir Malevich or Wassily Kandisky painting. There's a lot of funny sounds too. It's not quite good enough for the "oddly satisfying" instagram standards of today. It’s more like 6 minutes of mundane hypnosis.
