When traveling or having people over, I figure out everyone’s coffee needs before going to bed. Sugar? Milk? Weird kind of milk? Awful flavored creamer? Only espresso drinks? Only that weak Dunkin drip? Just get it sorted without judgment, go to the store if you have to, or otherwise figure out a game plan, and thus ensure you have happy companions bright and early.

I used to think the whole “ don’t talk to me before I’ve had my coffee“ thing was just another one of those white people sayings like “ live laugh love“. After drinking coffee for about a year, I understand where that comes from. If someone were to ask me to do something before I have my coffee time, I may stab them ( with insults ofc). Once I have my coffee time, all is well and I may be approached. it’s the little things you gotta appreciate in life.

I look forward to coffee. It doesn't matter in what form. I look forward to the practice of making it or the practice of going out and buying it. Grinding, assembling the percolator, turning on the burner. Walking to the cafe. The light banter with the baristas. Filling up a cup at the gas station with the glass decanters. Pairing it with a donut dripping in glaze, or some jam and toast, a bagel and lox, a croissant. The names and orders shouted, the frenetic bustle of a midtown coffee shop, the quiet of a dusty cafe with cool aunt decor. An espresso before a night out (chic), a cup after a good dinner (ties it all together). The taste, the fact that it's such a widely acceptable drug that so many of us take. It's a small ritual we do to help us out a little bit. Get us ready, get us going.

Here is a piece that I am livestreaming indefinitely on youtube. It’s footage from basically everywhere I’ve been in the past 3 years or so. All over America. YouTube is really a blessing; even if it was _just_ a storage platform for video it would be above and beyond anything else. I really recommend finding ways to make stuff for youtube.
