Gotta be from the ceramic demitasse cups. I used to love doing this and would, if I were a) employed and b) in the city. I shall return like a Phoenix Arabica at some point.

I’m a barista so often my coffee drinking experience is Chugging some Iced Bullshit Behind the Espresso Machine Mid-Shift. therefore, when I get to make my first coffee of the day a peaceful little ritual? Wow oh wow… and now that the trees lining my block are popping the hell off wow it feels amazing

Ive been participating in a little ritual of drinking my coffee in front of the river that’s 20 paces away from da crib. I’ll fire up my dear espresso machine, measure out and pull a double shot into my whimsical arket mug, froth some milk, slide into my fav puffer, and walk the 20 or so steps to the bench by the river with MY mug dude. how fun is that
the sun was surprisingly confident and brilliant by amsterdam standards today and wow feeling the warmth on my face, seeing the rays do their ✨twinkle✨twinkle on the water, sipping exceptional coffee that I made from MY mug… sublime.
sketchy characters by the underpass to the right and the neighbourhood dogs trotting by on their daily walk add to the charm.

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.

I'd NEVER pay for a algo-driven, ad-saturated social network...so even if it's purely symbolic in the long run, I just upgraded to demonstrate with my wallet that there is a market for this cool community.

I know I'm not cool. That's why I appreciate the PI community for letting me play at being cool. I feel like a hipster pollywog with a protective froggie parent letting me explore the pond safely. Sure, at some point I'm likely to get snatched up as a seagull's breakfast, but I'll enjoy the pond while I can. Thanks.

Probably picked it up from Reddit, I feel good when saying this, no idea why.
