Atlas Café, 116 Havenmeyer St., 718-782-7470
Vibe: 2 Atlas is often crowded with hard-working people, which can be infectious and good for productivity. However, crowding is an issue. For some reason they don’t allow laptops outside and considering the overcrowding, this is a big mistake. They will come out and yell at you if you try to set up shop in the sun.

The Free Art Collective Manifesto
Thus we dictated our demands to all the Manifesto readers left on Earth:
1. No more neutrality! No more special cases! No more culture of the gods! All art must take sides!
2. No more false universalism! No more minority culture for the masses! No more diluted art on the high street! Art for all means art by all! Art for all means art riddled with the same differences and divisions as the world...
March to Keep Fear Alive →
America, the Greatest Country God ever gave Man, was built on three bedrock principles: Freedom. Liberty. And Fear — that someone might take our Freedom and Liberty. But now, there are dark, optimistic forces trying to take away our Fear — forces with salt and pepper hair and way more Emmys than they need. They want to replace our Fear with reason.

Dear sea glass guy at the sawdust,
For years you told me you couldn’t make a sea glass ring for me and for years I challenged you to do otherwise. Well, you failed - I found one.
Next time don’t be so pretentious about your ugly-ass sea glass.
Sincerely,
