study desk

Use a quiet 25, 45, or 60 minute focus timer, an untimed session, and one private note at your study desk.

the café opens best with JavaScript on. with it off, the counter is still here:

the menu: warm drinks, little pastries, and a short kitchen
window seat: Richmond weather, study mixes, and optional room sound
study desk: a gentle focus timer and one private table note
tend: one task per strip, kept private in your browser
chalkboard: draw together on the live café wall
stickerboard: leave something small on the shared wall
about the café: the short story and the hours
