Splain? Idgi.
I'll be honest, I'm not familiar with new monasticism.
But yes, I loved growing up in the Baptist church, I loved the sense of community, the feeling of connection. But the politics of the far right that has taken over these once radical traditions is honestly depressing. It makes me sad to know that if I ever have kids, they will not be able to have those same experiences. I wish there was something similar in the more lefty churches, like the episcopals, the the United church of Christ, or the metropolitan community Church, but it seems like, in my area at least, mainline and fringe lefty churches don't generally offer those some kind of things. :/ and of course, there is no Christian anarchist community to speak of.
Oh that's absolutely perfect. I'd love that at the end of this season or the start of the next.
Def a bot. They're responding to themself below.
... most just use socks, from what I understand..
Jesus, Mary and Joseph that poor guy.
I've had some "thought I was into this" moments in my life, but thankfully I've always started small and worked my way up. Well, with one exception. That was rough. But never anything like that. My God.
I've tried with Firefox and Chrome. I think I have a bum phone, tbh.
Oh that is so what I call it from now on.
It's amazing. The cookie dough doesn't cook all the way, so it's like chewy nuggets of cookie goodness.
I won't lie... I prefer the raw batter. I only bake the cake because I'm a coward and society tells me I have to.
There are a few good videos on YouTube that I am too COVID to find and link right now. But homes are straight up houses, apartments, et cetera. Some are nicer than others, but they're just houses.
As far as ownership goes, iirc if you've lived in the home 5 years (as in, you paid rent for 5 years) then you own the home. Like a rent to own in the US. I don't know how that works currently, with a lack of capitalist landlords, but that was the agreement when they socialized housing. The government has the right of first refusal if you leave the home, with the exception that you can give the home to a family member or co-occupant when leaving. You can own up to two homes.
Also, despite being run by the communist party, they are not communist. They're socialist, to use the Marxist definition. A transitionary state. Private ownership is still very much so a real thing in Cuba. They even have privately owned businesses. Calling Cuba communist is the same kind of error as saying the US is a direct democracy because the democratic party controls the Senate, or that the UK is a communist society because the labour party was in power. The party names are more... aspirational than anything else.
