is STILL free for fam members. It’s so hard to find a place where u can sit unbothered for hours anymore (esp without spending money), yet ikea restaurant persists. Also a nice place to people watch & fantasize about having kids (that family looks so vibrant and beautiful) or not (those kids are nuts, im so lucky)

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.

i found another one of these places that’s €3.6 the hour and it’s very pretty. i’ll document my experience when I visit tomorrow. for some reason I can’t ever focus at home and I really need to study for this long exam so I’ll invest it and I’ll also take it as an opportunity to observe what’s even the point of these places aside from being quiet enough for students (which libraries are for). i guess the appeal for me is that they have free coffee and food, but idk!!

currently Not experiencing this and wish i was. i know that me lingering here on my laptop isn’t good business and this hostile ass architecture will drive me out sooner than later, but i think something’s fucked about the state of spaces like this if customer turnover is the goal. we’re in a cozy cafe drought

you can find them for under $20, & there’s somethin special for anyone’s vibe. ofc i like the pa dutch cast iron ones, but there’s also French bistro, minimal ceramic, olde golds & silvers, & branded for a tiny bit of kitsch. practical use- keep it next to the shitter ❤️ gives going to the bathroom that junaysayqwaw

cable management is OUT. let those bad boys run wild. let them run across your walls, cluster inconveniently on the floor, dangle from your tv. let them get tangled in a tote bag by the couch over years and years, until you eventually need to fish that one cable out, & you experience that special brand of frustration again: how could I have let myself do this? and then, when you finally do claw that one cable free: a feeling of having ultimately Won in the battle of choosing chaos over order.
