I always love exploring new bookstores, even though the temptation to buy everything is very hard to avoid. This store is the real life version of the bookstore x cafe x flowershop trope, I definitely recommend 🤍

I can behave normally around books

Not “Only my reading of canon is correct” or “Interpretations are subjective and all valid” but a secret third thing, “More than one interpretation can be valid but there’s a reason your English teacher had you cite quotes and examples in your papers, you have to have a strong argument that your interpretation is actually supported by the text or it is just wrong and I’m fine with telling you it’s wrong, actually.”

"Sanctuary of Words"

You get to build your perfect space for reading and writing. What’s it like? My perfect space for reading and writing would reflect a balance of creativity, calm, and cultural pride. It would be a room bathed in soft natural light during the day, with warm, ambient lighting at night. The walls would feature art and photography that celebrate Afro-Caribbean heritage, alongside a few cherished…

I Saw the TV Glow is such a uniquely, devastatingly queer story. Two queer kids trapped in suburbia. Both of them sensing something isn’t quite right with their lives. Both of them knowing that wrongness could kill them. One of them getting out, trying on new names, new places, new ways of being. Trying to claw her way to fully understanding herself, trying to grasp the true reality of her existence. Succeeding. Going back to help the other, to try so desperately to rescue an old friend, to show the path forward. Being called crazy. Because, to someone who hasn’t gotten out, even trying seems crazy. Feels crazy. Looks, on the surface, like dying.

And to have that other queer kid be so terrified of the internal revolution that is accepting himself that he inadvertently stays buried. Stays in a situation that will suffocate him. Choke the life out of him. Choke the joy out of him. Have him so terrified of possibly being crazy that he, instead, lives with a repression so extreme, it quite literally is killing him. And still, still, he apologizes for it. Apologizes over and over and over, to people who don’t see him. Who never have. Who never will. Because it’s better than being crazy. Because it’s safer than digging his way out. Killing the image everyone sees to rise again as something free and true and authentic. My god. My god, this movie. It shattered me.

Back in February, I went to Sapporo with my friends to see the Snow Festival. On the first day we were there, my friend and I went for coffee and stumbled across this place

It’s down the street from the TV Tower in Odori; 2 stops on the train. We’d have walked if it wasn’t so cold

Cafe: POP/iN

Location: Sapporo, Hokkaido
