    How is the civic discourse and sense of community in AR?

    I walk the city, whether going shopping or on my way to a concert venue. I observe. People under the age of 50 have their eyes glued to their cellphones when walking or even riding a bicycle. Parents ignore their children because the cellphone has priority. People over 70 make eye contact...

    1906 House for sale by architect owner in Balvanera/San Cristobal

    I shared your comments with the owner. You make good points that any buyer has to consider. Not everyone is interested in an old house from another era. There are two patios, which are my favorite areas of the house. They are full of plants and trees, and so quiet.

    I fell for an online scam that is withdrawing from my bank account

    Now I remember my state of mind when encountering the Facebook scam. The first time I thought, "this is too good to be true." The second time I thought, "today is my birthday, why not?" I buy all my clothing second-hand.
