I love Litterbox! But I hate ads. Sad that corporate consumption needs to infiltrate nice things for authors to survive.

Edit: it's not even an ad, it's worse! That chain of cafés is just a cultural norm now. That's depressing.

Do you think they were paid for mentioning spiderman?

No, it's the coffee brand they're drinking.

I mean it's an octopus instead of the mermaid, idk I'd give them the benefit of the doubt

Ah, true that. It's not an ad then and that's even worse... Are corporations that engrained into people's minds that when they think of drinking a coffee in a café, it's necessarily that brand? Their marketing dept did their job well.
