a wonderful place for a stroll, to sit with a good book, or to quite literally stop and smell the roses. spectator books on piedmont ave is a great independent bookstore about half a mile away. you can grab a book at spectator and walk to the rose garden, and eventually mosey back to the kona club (mentioned elsewhere in thread) for a tiki drink.

Molasses Books (Bushwick) - I always find something good here. They have a tiny little bar so you can get coffee, tea, beer or wine. Always a nice ambiance Honeymoon Coffee (Ridgewood) - their books are curated by Molasses so it’s a nice selection & the coffee/treats are good Topos Bookstore (Ridgewood) - great selection of books, though I find more at Molasses typically. They also have coffee/tea! Cute outdoor seating area Aeon Books (LES/Chinatown) - maybe my favorite bookstore. Lovely selection of old and new. They also have a little corner with records for sale (Found a cool Francis Bebey record there once) Dashwood Bookstore (NOHO I guess?) - owner is so sweet & the photo book selection is incredible

For new books: McNally Jackson (kinda an obvious choice, always a really good selection, Soho & Williamsburg locations) Greenlight Bookstore (my local new books bookstore, where I go most often, Fort Greene BK) For used books: Housing Works Bookstore (some great finds here, housing works is a nonprofit that fights AIDS and homelessness, they mostly have thrift stores but also this 1 used book shop!) The Strand (another obvious one but I go here so often too tbh) Unnameable Books (many people have said this already but want to +1 it! my local shop!)

both iCal— and I’m a big fan of multiple shared calendars. I have one with my sister, my mom, my partner, my bestie and one for myself. really helpful organizing plans with people and keeping track of far out dates like vacations and concert tickets. paper planner- for weekly and daily todo lists. finding where i can fit in x3 things to do daily based on what time allows for that day. and of course adding stickers and doodles with pretty markers. I use one from Shorthand.

is it okay that I’ve surrounded myself with so much STUFF? is accumulation always greed? where is the line between excess and simply nesting/ living in a home? is it just a luxury to have the space to store things for repurposing and reusing (ie jars, scraps for art, hobbies of the past — and hopefully the future— once adulthood/capitalism settles down)? or is this actually good for something?
