Where can I find references for every day people? I can't go out with my sketchbook because i am mentally ill and I am being held against my will. But I can access internet photos and draw from that, I just don't know where I can find good ones, something from real life. Pic rel is something I'd like to achieve by myself

youtube
look up interviews, "footage" (you can find almost everything), movies, etc.
with video you have a better feeling of 3D and it mimicks the person in motion
works for animals too

alright but what videos emulate the state of being in a coffee shop and drawing people sitting there?

The closest is probably interviews, but not stuff like letterman because there are lots of quick cuts. Try documentaries. Movies where there's a lot of talking are good too but you're gonna have to pause

Probably trying to get the dog to donate 50 bucks to his temple for "good fortune"

If it's not necessarily the coffee shop atmosphere you want and you are just content with average looking people you could just look at interviews with politicians or other people who aren't selected for their looks, something like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHebnMsPasQ&t=2m46s
