Remember - if you're financially in a position to do so, skip the #BlackFriday deals online from big companies and shop instead from small and local businesses.
The big guns don't need your money, but for small traders it can be what keeps them going into 2026, so support your community instead.

No contract, no coffee.

We don’t believe in sitting on the sidelines. Join our Transition co-chair @linamkhan.bsky.social , First Deputy Mayor Dean Fuleihan & @sbworkersunited.org at the picket lines.

Across the country, Starbucks workers are on an Unfair Labor Practice strike for a fair first contract, and I know which side I’m on. Baristas make Starbucks an extraordinarily wealthy company. They are entitled to their fair share of that wealth and to benefits and fair treatment on the job.

coffee at 2pm won't affect your sleep adversely if you are pure of heart and spirit

I always see TikTok skits that are like “POV: you go to a local coffee shop” and the barista is super rude/snobby, say the prices are outrageous, and all the comments are like “YES!” And add how it tastes terrible, but I’ve genuinely never had that experience? Feels like Starbucks propaganda

Reminder to everyone donating to food banks in light of the Republicans starving SNAP: It is far more cost effective to donate directly to food banks than to buy food and give it to them. They can buy in bulk and have existing relationships with sellers, so your few bucks go way further that way

The cybertruck is a massive men's rights win. Finally a car that she won't take in the divorce.

Food trucks should actually just be like smaller portions of dishes for like $5-$8. I’m talking like sliders, little salmon on rice. They are usually next to other food trucks and then I could try multiple instead of spending like $20 on one

Am I the only one who just cannot listen to podcasts or audiobooks at home? I try, but like I can really only do it in the car.

Anyone who’s considering Tidal, here’s my experience over the last 2ish years of switching over to it:
1. Using the app itself has been pleasant. The layout is familiar and not confusing. I appreciate having artists I listen to frequently on the Home Screen, albums I’ve played recently…

This album is nuts. Really been digging it the past week

Being a coffee nerd in this economy is not for the weak. I have to limit myself to just one ~8oz cup a day or else I’d have to buy bags way more often

Watched The Godfather for the first time in theaters a month ago, and I think it’s time to watch Part II. I’ve put these movies off for so long because I knew how highly regarded they were and figured I wouldn’t appreciate them enough as a younger person.

One of the lamest parts of the de minimis exemption being taken away is that a lot of the coffee roasters I get are from other countries. Not many US roasters are doing it quite like coffee collective, manhattan, DAK ect. Even September is from Canada.

Lots of things I would want to pick, but this is what came to mind first
