  • What’s your go-to brew method for camping? I find the Aeropress tough to beat.

    Although my favourite camping coffee memories are with my parents’ beat-up old moka pot and pre-ground beans from the grocery store. I love me a good cup of coffee, but sometimes the best cup isn’t about the beans or the brew. It’s about the time, space, and people you share it with. Some of my all-time favourite cups of coffee came out of that piece of crap moka pot.





  • Seriously, “most modern songs”? In the era with the most new music being produced in a massive number of different genres and styles that would have been unimaginable just a generation ago?

    I like the oldies as much as anyone else, heck I only really got into listening to music after discovering The Beatles and '70s prog rock as a teen. But if you can’t find good music being produced in 2025, that’s not a problem with the music industry, that’s a problem with you.

    If anyone reading this struggles to find new artists they like, I recommend checking out NPR’s Tiny Desk concerts as well as KEXP’s live performances on YouTube. I’ve found a lot of artists I love from these sources.



  • I relate really hard to this comment. My mother, for all her faults, truly seems to believe the best in people, which I do find admirable. Shortly before retirement, she worked a few retail jobs, where she thrived and loved getting the grumpy clients. She said trying to make them smile was always her favourite mini-game at work.

    As much as I hate most people, that mentality has translated into my work ethic as a customer service employee. You never know what someone is going through, and unless you actively make the staff feel unsafe I will try my best to make your day a bit nicer.
