I feel like there is a certain friction to altering behaviors on a large scale which the pandemic was obviously a significant force for.

I'd be super interested to see some good roadmaps to restore the social fabric that @barry-cotter is chatting about.

There was a neat blog post I read from here a while ago about this couple that began fostering community by introducing a consistent low-friction activity in their neighborhood (in this case morning coffee outside). It was a wholesome read: https://supernuclear.substack.com/p/stoop-coffee-how-a-simpl....

That's an interesting take - although there was literally a global pandemic just a few years ago.

Granted, the nature of surviving that pandemic involved reinforcing several isolating habits on a societal scale.

I'm curious as to what situations would actually result in more fabric produced on a large scale.
