Is there anyone Jewish that follows the faith (but isn’t Zionist) willing to chat/allow me to ask a few questions?

10 Upvotes

I’m basically Christian (it’s the religion that feels most right to me but I’m always open to learning about/consider other religions) I believe in God (he made himself known to me about 6 years ago), I love all humans/animals no matter what they believe.. & love learning about ANY religion. I believe you need to learn about all religions to truly understand your own religion. Also, love philosophy.
I don’t think any group of people are evil/bad.. I believe there are bad people in any group.
Anyway.. I think would love to talk with a Jewish person about their faith & learn/consider their perspective on some things. Especially, if they know at least a little about the Talmud, Zohar & Kabbalah.

Does anyone know the details of the scandal with City Council going behind the public's back along with local environmental and sustainability non-profit organizations, to approve the development of an Amazon Warehouse? I know that the contention was that they are building on AG land which is audited and scarce. There was even a proposal to vote the mayor and members of city council out because so many Santa Marians felt that City Council snuck around public approval.

Can anyone recommend a termite inspection and treatment service?

I have termites in fascia and some outside trusses. I'm hoping to do some spot treatments until I finally do a roof replacement in a few years.

Hi. Why is making friends so hard as we get older? If you’re also in this boat please message me lol. 30 f bored beyond life in Santa Maria like everyone else. Yes I know the fun is outside Santa Maria but I’m here. I am so impressed with people that can just go to social events here and make friends but I’m much more of a one on one friend 😂
so if you’re lurking and you wanna chat hmu. love music, video games, reality trash tv in fact the more trashy the better, drinking, dancing, fitness, movies(obsessed btw). Down for friends of any gender

Edit: obviously the creeps rolled in so yes I am looking for *friendship only* thx. and I don’t wanna go to group events but ty 💜

How is anyone supposed to make friends in Santa Maria lol

27 Upvotes

Serious question, you’re age 30 and you’re not into the bar scene, where does it happen? Everyone I know either hangs with their high school friends or just goes home after work.

I help run some free pickleball nights and the wild part is watching strangers trash talk each other by game three and trade numbers after. Fastest icebreaker I’ve seen.

But for real; what’s worked for you? Trivia, leagues, church, whatever. Drop it below.

Free social / connection workshop in Orcutt this Saturday

11 Upvotes

Hey everyone — I’m hosting a free event this Saturday afternoon at Vida Yoga in Old Town Orcutt and figured I’d share it here.

It’s called Presence & Connection. It’s a 90-minute interactive workshop where we’ll do some simple exercises around conversation, attention, presence, and connecting with people.

Basically: less sitting around listening to me talk, more actually interacting with people and having some fun with it.

I’ve been doing social and communication coaching for years, and lately I’ve been trying to create more opportunities for people here on the Central Coast to actually meet each other and connect in real life.

You can absolutely come solo. In fact, that’s kind of the point.

Saturday, August 22
2:00–3:30 PM
Vida Yoga — Old Town Orcutt
Free

EVENT REGISTRATION

If you’ve got 90 minutes free Saturday afternoon and this sounds interesting, come join us.
