@rabbimarkiz @evanschultz6 Obviously the answer isn’t to copy them, but it’s an interesting set of benefits that keep people engaged above and beyond the spiritual.
@rabbimarkiz @evanschultz6 A note from the non-Jewish world perhaps, in Strangers In Their Own Land, Hochschild talks about how deep red state churches provide services blue state residents expect of municipalities. It makes churches more central in residents’ lives.
@rabbimarkiz Not a shul member but a regular chabad donor: it’s a way to participate in Jewish continuity outside of having kids. I guess it also means I have relationships for the practical stuff like when my husband needed to practice his Hebrew at 9pm the night before my grandma’s funeral.
@ritaparada @paulgharwood Really?! I always write directly into Qualtrics because I find it easier to think that way especially for any logic + the question libraries are helpful. But like always in a closed state and there are many reviews to follow…
So…are back yard chickens allowed in @CambMA? I feel like there was a bee rule but are chickens a pet? A noise complaint waiting to happen? What if it’s only 2 chickens and no construction?
My mother’s voice is so loud in my head - oh the bank failed and and startups won’t make payroll…we should bring them some groceries. The deep need to start a mealtrain is as weird and misplaced as it is deafening.
It seems the conversation has so far been around lower cost of living and the flip side of rising housing prices, but it also touches transit infrastructure, where childcare should be located, and the money spent in small town centers near homes vs downtown.
I’m reading about cities clawing back tax incentives from companies that aren’t forcing a return to office. Are any cities or towns incentivizing remote workers to move there? E.g., municipal broadband, changing zoning to allow eateries in residential neighborhoods, etc.?
@KatieS@3GS Of possible value depending on their age but I’m fluent in Russian - I’m not sure when it stopped being taught in schools in Ukraine but I imagine after the 80s based on friend’s fluency.
@mulegirl It was surprising to me and took a while to pinpoint because I have one easy food allergy and otherwise eat any and everything without issue.
@mulegirl So I’m curious how common this experience is: modern meat alternatives always upset my stomach. Old school stuff like tofu or tempeh is fine but Beyond or Impossible is Not Good. I’m wondering if this is a common enough problem that people get turned off the concept?
@berglar I use an in-house tool now, but I liked Trint transcription in the past for the color coded highlighting and quick playback of highlights it allowed.
Excited to track a week but how do I label the 15 minutes spent standing in the kitchen, imagining dessert, and watching my spouse wash dishes while scrolling my phone? Phone? Family time? Self improvement if I was reading about time tracking?
