      @KevinSimler in your reply you agreed w/ "like and often participate in rituals." Curious as to what your rituals are, if you don't mind?

      @TimothyChutes The startup I worked at a couple years ago was pretty heavy into rituals. I discussed it a bit here:https://twitter.com/kevinsimler/status/636035704041132032 …

      @sarahdoingthing @GabrielDuquette rituals, totally. (remind me to tell you about my old community sometime. So. Many. Rituals.)

      @KevinSimler the post has given me a lot to think about. Currently team building. Trouble building collectivism as outsider's outsider.

      @TimothyChutes how are you an outsider's outsider? if you're on a team, lead team-building by example!

      @KevinSimler an outsider to "outsider" groups too. Was trying to shorthand saying I don't have much experience in group dynamics like that.

      @TimothyChutes oh, gotcha. I was pretty inexperienced too, but now that I've seen it happen up close (and v. successfully), I'm an expert :)

      @TimothyChutes trick is to (1) genuinely like your teammates, and (2) do team-wide activities that feel fun and organic (not forced)

      @TimothyChutes Without (1), you're hosed. If you have (1), then you just need to get creative about (2). Helps to have partners-in-crime.

      @KevinSimler have 1 and partner-in-crime for 2. Although have trouble developing rituals for us as duo. Tight schedules.

      @TimothyChutes yeah, time's a scarce resource — which is why it must be sacrificed on the altar of solidarity :). Is this for work or...?

          @KevinSimler indie film/series work. Think it's worth cutting into writing room time?

          @KevinSimler travel is also an issue. Houston IS sprawl. Here's an overlay of Connecticut on top of my metro area.pic.twitter.com/LGH7rHbxQ9
