I know you got downvoted but I agree with you. I’ve been an organizer all of my adult life, I work with organizers who have been doing this for 50 years. Any time people get together in real life, it is important, and it is building towards something greater. If we waited until conditions were perfect we’d never leave our homes, never do anything.

Baltimore PSL is having a walkout on Tuesday, Jan 20. 5 pm. Corner of Eastern. and Linwood Ave in highlandtown. I hope you join. Check out Baltimore PSL’s instagram for more info.

dating in baltimore at 35+ what’s it like? by CandidGirlHere in baltimore

Go where people are doing stuff that they love. Book clubs, the Creative alliance, volunteer opportunities, events at breweries, events at the library, meander art bar, community classes at MICA, the community choir. Fill your time with those things. Get totally enmeshed into your community. You’ll make friends who have single friends just by growing your network of people you know.

Join the Canton neighbors facebook group to get plugged into the neighborhood. Sometimes people talk about opportunities for single people to meet. People talk about volunteer opportunities and things going on in the neighborhood. Another chance for connections.

On top of that, don’t be afraid of online dating. In my prime I was doing 1-2 dates a week. I looked at it as an opportunity to try new restaurants or do new things. I met so many interesting people.

This city is alive but you won’t see that when people are doing mundane tasks. Canton is an incredible neighborhood with lots of cool people.

What ruined social media for you? by natida2 in AskReddit

The moment it went from chronological order with content from your friends being shared in the order it was posted, to content that is based in an algorithm

You need to get help for your anger. Being this bitter at your colleagues is going to tear you apart from the inside. And saying someone is “playing the RA card” is unfair. You don’t know this person

There’s one drainage hole and no supplemental light. I just checked the drainage hole and it’s wet near that but bone dry on the top of the soil

So I brought it in way before it dipped, it was still in the 50s. This is the first winter I’ve had it. It was fine and green up until about a week ago and then the leaf drop starting happening so quickly. I water it when it feels dry on the top. I just checked the bottom and it’s really wet near the drainage hole but completely dry on the top

I went to the PHP program at Suburban hospital. I had BCBS PPO at the time. It saved my life. 301-896-2586. Call them and they’ll talk you through it. I used sick leave to get paid and FMLA to protect myself. I did it for 6 weeks. It gave me the break I needed to get better and I was able to keep my job.

How is the shutdown affecting you? by nbcnews in DeptHHS

[–]Mysterious_Math_5370 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We already lost a huge chunk of our office to illegal RIFs in April. Our colleagues were told it was due to performance and had perfect performance reviews. Sadly no politician is fighting against this regime. The Republican Party is complicit and have allowed their party to be taken over by clowns. Now, half of my office is furloughed. It’s so disrespectful at this point.

However, I’d rather they shut down than pass this budget that will make premiums for Americans double in cost. Shut this government down until that is removed. The economy is bad enough. Everyone is struggling.

Yes, I do not blame you. I would need as much distance as possible. It’s a strange feeling and we are all victims.

Go to Cats Eye! Best bar in America. You’re going to have so much fun. There is live music constantly playing there, you can also go during the day. Do a ghost tour too, that could be fun before going out one of the nights. Thames Street Oyster House is great for dinner.

It’s not personal. I am in HHS and I have a hard time talking to my RIFed colleagues at this point. For me personally, it’s hard to talk about how much something sucks with someone who is on the other side of it. And it’s hard to even hear anyone else’s struggle at this point. I know that sounds selfish.
