Sounds like a local needs that was actually local. None here, but we don't vacation in our economic strata. Belly button showing?
They did have a convention scolding sbout not going to bethel tours but making it to amusement parks a fewcyears ago.
i recently heard from a few pimos and saw on the exjw reddit that the above topic was discussed during a midweek meeting (clam).
the reddit member mentioned that there were complaints from the branch that too many dubs "were posting too many vacation and brunch pictures [on social media] when that time could have been spent in service!
if this is reality--and knowing this cultcorporation, i wouldn't be a bit surprised--they are really trying to stop the r&f/ members from enjoying normal human activities.

we got the inevitable letter today.. meet, associate and "encourage" in person unless sick or infirm.
also dress up for zoom if you must use it.
locally over half are on zoom, 3/4 no picture.
Midweek meeting. 10 to 15 fewer on zoom, 4 of about 40 had picture on. Even fewer than week before. The ones who were not on so probable showed in person were the ones you could guess; seemingly well, and "spiritual ".
Waiting for the talk.

Expensive petrol and car restricted areas will be " persecution". Wait to see how many really show up.
Otherwise, a bit of levity: we Americans think you all drive Morris Minors so can fit only 4 anyway. (I always wanted a Panther with enclosed sidecar).
Soon enough we will get the letters, meanwhile can guess. Masks, wiping, no combining groups, no breaks, no fun

Can you go with a beard? Asking for a friend, I shave twice a day.
gb worried about not enough coming to in person meetings.
what are they going to be like when they realise not only jdubs don’t want to go to in person meetings but they really don’t want to go back on the min.
zoom has so much more appeal for rather than meetings or door to door.
Kevin, where are you?

It is always fun to read the part for elders eyes only.
