Adagio is my main go-to, but I also go to Sloane sometimes. I also keep an eye out for small specialty tea shops recommended by friends for specific blends.

If you bring the good poutine and maple syrup, I welcome you to invade the Upper Midwest of the US, too.
Wait until I move back to Minnesota in a few months, please!
There are a bunch of field-specific preprint services like arXiv: PsyArXiv, SocARXIV, engrXiV, AgriXiv, etc. The OSF also hosts preprints for various disciplines.
The important thing to remember is that preprints are not peer-reviewed and have not been vetted in any way. A paper may change a lot (or just a little) between preprint submission and final publication. A recent paper of mine had a few sections added for clarity, which wouldn't appear in a preprint.
It doesn't really do anything other than (potentially) verify someone or an organization really is who they say they are. It probably matters most for well-known folks or orgs that you need to know are real. One example is how confused people are about Mark Hamill, who did move over to Bsky, because there are so many impersonators.
Another example is the US Consumer Product Safety Commission. I can verify they are who they say (and trust their posts, hilarious or not) because they've used their gov site to verify their account.
I had a cat named Rufus once!
They'll have non-member options for sellers once it's out of beta, too. Supporter members can also sell (lower buy-in cost), but the Coop commission is higher (not as high as non-member will be).
I've purchased several things there, and I've loved everything. (I'm not an artisan or crafter, just a buyer of art and craft.)
Oh, wow. I've made 1,065 in July alone! My 7-month average (from January 2024 through today) is 811/month.
That makes more sense, because it's also the Kama Sutra. Karma's got nothing to do with.
North Dakota is worse, and they just tried to repeal the law allowing stores (at all) to be open before noon on Sundays. I've only lived here less than a decade, and I couldn't even get a toaster oven before noon on Sunday until a few years ago. (I'm on the border where ND is the bulk of shopping options.)
