Someone asked, “what if your morning coffee came with 200 koi fish?”
This is what happens when experiential meets a daily ritual, the mundane becomes transportive. A guy in Saigon saw people feeding fish at a pond and thought, what if that was the whole café? Now there are over 10 of them in the city. 💪
Same coffee. Completely different memories.

This unique cafe in Vietnam lets diners sit amongst pools of koi carp as they eat their meals.
The King Koi Coffee Garden in in Ho Chi Minh has tables and chairs submerged into a lake where 3,000 koi swim in and among customers.

Hundreds of strangers descended on NYC this weekend because two numbers became a vibe. No brand. No agenda. Just 6-7...a phrase born from a song, spread by basketball edits, and somehow adopted by everyone from 6-year-olds to their confused parents (me included).
This is what the Wasssssup era (hello 1999) felt like from the inside.
These gatherings are more than memes walking offline. They're proof that shared culture creates real community. That people crave belonging around something joyful and low-stakes and genuinely theirs.

"Freedom to be left behind" may become one of the defining workplace debates of the AI era.
A software engineer was granted a religious exemption from using AI at work. Legal experts say others may follow now that the Pope has raised concerns about the tech's impact on humanity. bit.ly/4dZNXiF

One of the hardest parts of building is knowing the difference between changing your goals and changing your path.
The strongest brands, communities, and events stay anchored to their core purpose while continuously adapting to the needs of their audience. Listen closely, evolve thoughtfully, and never lose sight of why people showed up in the first place.

Powerful conversation on why Americans should focus on local community, civic responsibility, and accountable leadership. A healthy society isn’t built by self-serving politicians, it’s built by engaged citizens, strong local communities, and leaders who serve rather than enrich themselves. Real pride comes from contributing to something bigger than ourselves and taking ownership of the places we call home. 🇺🇸
Every American should watch every second of this video.
Thank you, @BenSasse.
