Body jerk
“This fall I think you're riding for — it's a special kind of fall, a horrible kind. The man falling isn't permitted to feel or hear himself hit bottom. He just keeps falling and falling. The whole arrangement's designed for men who, at some time or other in their lives, were looking for something their own environment couldn't supply them with. Or they thought their own environment couldn't supply them with. So they gave up looking. They gave it up before they ever really even got started.

"When you eat, you let your guard down and open up. It's a very intimate experience. The relationships you have with people pre- and post-meal are two different relationships. Maybe it is very subtle, but once you share a meal with someone there is more chance they will share intimate knowledge with you"

"... recommends using a lighter roasted coffee with a higher acidity rather than a darker, more bitter roast for a "luscious, soft, and supple" result. The resulting flavor and body of a cup of cold brew is the exact opposite of what you get in a cup of espresso."
My next weekend's brewing plan. Mmm.

A Malaysian cafe somewhere, slightly Melbourne-sque.
High ceilings and bare hanging bulbs will always do it for me.

D-word
"Design is not style. It's not about giving shape to the shell and not giving a damn about the guts. Good design is a renaissance attitude that combines technology, cognitive science, human need and beauty, to produce something the world didn't know it was missing."
