It's all about good equipment, good beans and lots of practice.

All true. The experience serving drinks every day is so fun & rewarding. Knowing the drinks for regulars, helping newbies make something that tastes like what they get at a gas station, being a fun part of peoples day. It took a lot of mulit-tasking and work. Was totally worth it.

They aren’t cowards. They’re collaborators.

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections
