In his memoir A Postilion Struck by Lightning, Dirk Bogarde refers to church-going as “Social Spying” & that seems so right on: “…mostly a weekly check up on who was who & what they had been doing.” (I’m a godfree humanist not at all advocating for religion.) #BowlingAlone #SocialCapital #Community
Ik ben een echte 'joiner', (actief) lid van een heel aantal verenigingen.

In het campagneteam van de VVD hebben ze dus bedacht:
- we sluiten de PVV uit
- we sluiten GL/PvdA uit
- we sluiten alle partijen uit die de hypotheekrenteaftrek willen aanpakken.
Playing hard to get - zeg maar.

I am working to figure out MY way out of this dysfunctional communication cycle.Truth be told, I am so wrapped up in #HMERF science,that I'd d never hrd of Mr. Kirk before Wed.
But-I belong to a local bk club;I'm not sure tht I've got an ans, but plan 2 read #BowlingAlone jst in case it's in there.
In PR we warn: "How would it look on the front page of your local newspaper?"
I get it The Oddity photographer rocks up and suggests this and when he clicks you all grin instead of grimace for you're selling your greens and you're a lawn bowling club — Dead End! #BowlingAlone
He's so uncool he belongs to a bowling league . . . . #bowlingalone #RobertPutnam

Excellent read / listen.
#Loneliness, solitude and leisure time are not what we thought.
#BowlingAlone is a favorite #book I have been writing about recently too.

#RobertPutnam #BowlingAlone Great analysis on the effect of social media. “In the trenches” is how I described working in terrestrial radio. Men lost the ability to communicate when cellphones and social media became the norm. The blue collar male demo suffered with an inability to release.

Social capital, our personal community ties, are *key* to successful democracies. They have all been in decline for decades.
Political nerds will love the book and documentary.
