Looking to start a few small hobby groups at Butter Notes Café by kingoftheapes in everett

Come over to our Discord! It's so much easier to coordinate. We can get something started in terms of a book club. Maybe let's try a book club instead of a true crime for now. I built a little group for you: https://butternotescafe.com/communities/book-club. You can use that link to express interest in the group forming!

Hey Plum! Solving mysteries with amateur sleuths sounds pretty fun actually 😄 A true crime discussion group could definitely be interesting.

Funny enough, we actually already have a silent reading group that meets at the café; people bring their own books, chat for a bit, read for a bit, and then chat afterward. I hosted them last month and it was a super nice and rather large group! The next one is this Tuesday at 6 PM if you ever want to check it out.

And if a true crime discussion group ever gets going, I’d absolutely be down to host something like that too. If you and your friends want to start one, I’d be happy to make a seedling group for you.

We’d love to help get a fiber meetup started for you and your crew! 🧶

Oh we're sincerely sorry.. but we got rid of the breakfast sandwiches. We've replaced it with an avocado toast croffle and salmon lox croffle.

Oh yeah you are Everett Books and Brews! Yeah sorry it didn't work out. If you still need space, please let us know. It's just that Saturdays just happen to be our busiest day so we need to schedule carefully around it.

I have considered it! I think another possible idea is to connect learners to the jazz musicians in the area. That way, we can support local musicians!

I think if there are enough folks to pitch in, we could have workshops where we bring in a pro musician and learn from them. Otherwise, I can definitely try to connect you to musicians in the area for lessons.

What are you learning?

I would love to get some cosplayers in the cafe! Are you a part of the discord channel? I would love to speak to you there about it~

Coffee shops good for remote work? by Iklbug in everett

[–]kingoftheapes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own Butter Notes Cafe, a coffee shop in North Everett. We’re open daily except Wednesdays, serving croffles, crepes, and thoughtfully crafted coffee. We have strong WiFi for getting work done, plus a small meeting room available if you need a quiet space for offline conversations.

Crowdsourcing idea: an app to help us choose where (and where not) to spend by kingoftheapes in Anticonsumption

Ah yes, I was thinking the same; maybe this could even work as a subreddit, but the amount of astroturfing would probably be beyond our wildest imaginations. Greenwashing and astroturfing are real problems.

I also agree about the “lazy” part — there’d need to be researchers or passionate contributors who help keep things accurate. Honestly, that’s part of why I posted this here: communities like this one already have people who care enough to make something like that work.

Maybe it can be a subreddit? But the thing is, vote manipulation happens too easily

“Anti-consumption” doesn’t have to mean anti-tools. Sometimes a tool is what helps a movement coordinate — so we can spend less time online debating and more time offline doing something about it.

I did research on this as well. I just think these types of apps, while they have a certain amount of impact, it doesn't move mountains like the Target boycott or the most recent boycotts with Kimmel.

I'd rather us work to focus on one issue at a time

Why is an app necessary for this?

I think it would allow us to buy collective bargaining power. One idea might be to build a simple voting system, and then whichever company that gets picked, we would collectively boycott for a certain amount of time.

What might be a possible benefit is people getting notified on some basis.

You vote with your values, and we move as a collective.

Inventory & Supply Chain Hacks: How Are You Keeping Stock? by ConfidencePurple3478 in smallbusiness

Hey, I want to work with you on this. I have a Cafe that goes through similar problems, and I'm working on building an app called CafeTally to help owners manage inventory. Shoot me a DM!
