It's up to you to decide, but I think that student, faculty, staff, and vendors are all actively engaged with a university. Politicians, neighbours. Some alumni. Probably others. Have fun! The stakes are very low.

Are you actively engaged with one or more universities?

What is the best distance to live from public transit?

Thanks everyone for the responses and ideas! I'm going to put these into the issue tracker for #tagspub, and I'll work on bringing them out.

Some definitions:

- Trending tags: tags which have increased in frequency the most lately
- Co-occurring tags: tags that appear together in posts most often, like EvanPoll and poll
- Global stats: total subscribers, total publishers, total number of posts shared, total number of unique tags by day/week/month/year/whatever
- Tag of the day: an interesting curated tag, with a description

What additional information would you like from tags.pub?

Hey, everyone. Thanks for the replies and responses. I went to a spa last Wednesday for my birthday -- the lovely #BotaBota in #Montreal's #VieuxPort. It was a real treat. I probably go to spas two or three times a year most years. I really enjoy doing the full water cycle -- hot, cold, rest, hot, cold, rest -- and taking some time to read, hang out with friends, meditate, nap, and relax.

Do you know what you should do with your life?

Hey, everyone. Thanks for the replies and responses.

Some countries like the US, France, and Brazil have a presidential palace that combines an official residence with a ceremonial centre and an administrative office.

Others, like Japan, Germany and Norway separate these functions into different buildings. Some heads of government even live in private homes.

Social media bans exist to prevent young people from organizing on climate change, Palestine, and LGBTQIA+ rights.

Should leaders in democratic countries live in the same building where they work?
