Another Coffee Question...less like/more like ☕☕☕

So much coffee info in here, it's exciting and overwhelming! Looking for on par/similar to Onyx Roasters. Willing to travel to any neighborhoods in the city. I am into a great shot of espresso, but also love an iced oat latte with a homemade syrup or an iced mocha.

As much as I love 3rd wave coffee, really looking for shops with a medium-bold profile. I remember liking Wormhole, but haven't been in almost ten years. La Colombe, Colectivo, Big Shoulders and Dark Matter were all a little too juicy for me in a flavored latte.

Many thanks, cheers!

Hiiii.

I am a couple of years into improv, and I am terrible at monologues. Maybe not "terrible" but definitely out of practice. My team has moved to a Pretty Flower format and begins with just a single word suggestion, but I have begun coaching a student team that takes a word and does a living room open with a sort of mutant Harold format.

All that to say! Going to be vulnerable here! I used a word generator and "voice to text" a monologue into my notes app as quickly and thoughtfully as I could. I feel that to help them I need to rebuild that monologue muscle. I learn best by watching others. So I present you with a challenge!

I'm going to drop a word, and share my quick notes app rant, and would love for you to do the same! Any association, A-B, A-C, whatever! Up to 60-90 seconds or shorter.

Suggestion is: seasickness

The thought of being trapped on a cruise ship terrifies me. So many people I know, like my teammate James, go on a cruise like every year. Not only am I certain that I would be insanely ill, but also probably highly anxious and paranoid. Like many other people who are now in their 40’s, as a fresh-faced teen, I must have watched Titanic like twenty times. Definitely at least twice in the theater.  I read an article that every cruise ship has a morgue on it. Let that sink in.
