I need to buy a formal dress for a wedding, where in the city would you recommend trying? I've been here a year and haven't really explored the shops near Union Square but I've heard the malls are just ghost towns now.

I tried on formal dresses at Nordstrom in Walnut Creek, found my preferred dress and size, and bought online for 1/5 the price.

What’s your budget and timeline? Are you a “standard” size or will you need something specialized?

Honestly, so many places just don’t have great stock, it’s almost easier to buy a couple of things/sizes online and send back whatever doesn’t work 😞

Standard sizing. I prefer shopping in person because women's standard sizing is anyone but, but I hate feeling so wasteful with all the mail returns, especially with how much gets thrown away. The wedding isn't until spring. I ideally don't want to spend more than $150 but may spend a bit more if it's fantastic.

Check out the Fancy Free Facebook group in SF - she has a huge collection of donated dresses to borrow or keep, and you can also post a picture of what you are looking for and the community will very likely provide for you. It's pretty incredible!

While most teachers are protected by teacher unions, I feel my voice hasn’t been heard at all with my concerns of going back to school next week. Our diocese has decided on full return 5 days/ week for all 42 schools despite a recent increase in COVID in our communities. Every other school that I know of in my state is either choosing remote learning to start the year or a hybrid approach, yet that was not an option for us. Are other Catholic schools I. The same boat? Stay safe!

To what extent to platforms facilitate union formation? To what extent do they discourage it? You'd think websites like glassdoor, linkedin, and this one would all be in an incredibly powerful position from the point of view of union organizing and the way they design the site could work for us or against us. So I'm asking two questions - how do we use the sites to build solidarity and organize unions but also can the sites better facilitate this process?
