Achieving happiness is a skill, and so is making great coffee. Coincidence?

@SplendorSolisBooks Your shop looks lovely 💖
We're in Central MA and it looks like there may be a book crawl ahead in our future. I haven't been to Northampton in a few years.

Welcome to CoSo!

Hey. Bookstore here. Old ones, new ones, fancy one, not so fancy. We lean philosophy and occult, but we've got art, poetry and other things, too.

Here is some stuff we put on our website.

Oh. We are located in Northampton, Massachusetts if you are ever in the area. 21 market st, northampton, Wednesday through Saturday 11-6 and Sundays 11-5.

Ya, another social media thing to figure out!

Talk to us if you want, or just slide over to the website.

@Keysalagain Yeah that cranberry sauce is going to be a pain to wash out. FAFO 😇

@b4cks4w Good advice.
If you have a metric gigaton of Ebooks, there are ways to liberate them from the Bezos ecosystem if you have an ebook reader like Kobo

@artemis We're going to need all the support and solidarity we can get in the very near future 💪

@TwistedWhim aaaah that's my favorite Doctor -
Wonderful to meet you! 😎

I mostly lurk and don't say much. I don't usually have the spoons to socialize after dealing with people and stresses all day long.

There are exceptionally lovely folk here at CoSo. I just want to thank you all for being here helping, encouraging kindness, bravery, knowledge, and snarky absurd humor.
I may not engage as much as I'd like but I see you ❤️

“in the cosmic blink of our present existence…it is worth keeping the Voyager in mind as we find our capacity for perspective constricted by the stranglehold of our cultural moment… I don’t think it is possible to contribute to the present moment in any meaningful way while being wholly engulfed by it. It is only by stepping out of it, by taking a telescopic perspective, that we can then dip back in and do the work which our time asks of us.”

I’m a Harris voter in a blue stronghold (MA)

At my workplace I am a blue dot in a red pond.

The misogyny and racism on display today is absolutely nauseating.

Perhaps you missed the memo, but every other social exists to sell emotional manipulation as a business model.

That's why we're here.

This year was the first time in a very long time that I was truly EXCITED to vote for a candidate. I cast my ballot the same day it came in the mail.
