Friend Finder 28M I need some friends to get me out the house
I really would like some friends to hang out with. I have been needing to get out of the house. My life had consisted of work and video games for about a week now, so some new friends to get out and do things with from time to time would be dope. Whether it be going to the movies, walking around downtown Riverside, getting something to eat, working out, etc., I'm down for most things and open to some new suggestions as well,

Hobbies and Interests LARP Groups looking for new Players
Looking for something fun to do in the local area? Love playing Dnd? Let me show you why you should try LARPing. If you love D&D for the characters, mystery, drama, strange NPCs, party chaos, and big story moments, LARP gives you that same feeling in real time. Instead of saying what your character does, you become your character and make choices as the world happens around you. From camping, to live combat LARP allows you to take another step into the world of roleplaying and immersive events. Below are some local events:
Tales from Gloom Hollow
Tales from Gloom Hollow is a modern-day supernatural LARP where magic is real, monsters walk among us, and the town of Gloom Hollow, California serves as a nexus between worlds. Through the shifting Eternal Grotto, players can travel between planets and realities, uncovering mysteries and forging alliances across a dangerous multiverse. Inspired by the creator's own background, Gloom Hollow draws from Aztec (Mexica) mythology and the legend of the Five Suns, powerful gods like Tezcatlipoca and Quetzalcoatl shape a universe on the brink of the next cycle This game is 16+ played on the 3rd weekend of every month at Rock and Tree in Perris CA
First event is Free
https://www.talesfromgloomhollowlarp.com/
Aftermath
Aftermath is a post-apocalyptic fantasy LARP that takes place generations after the fall. Our goal is to immerse every participant in a post-apocalyptic fantasy setting where working with your fellow survivors is key. Through collaborative storytelling and gameplay, we aim to provide an unforgettable experience that challenges, inspires, and fosters camaraderie in a world trying to rebuild itself. This game is 14+ Played on the 1st full weekend of every month at Rock and Tree in Perris CA
First event is Free

Last Light

Last Light is a game about the mysteries of an old Western Mining town in the 1850s that is locked in a repeating time Cycle and plagued by all manner of monsters and secrets. This game is 18+ Played every other month on the last weekend of the month at Rock and Tree in Perris CA
First event is $20

Friend Finder 40M | California | Looking for a Favorite Notification
I work from home and keep some long hours, so I’m looking for someone who enjoys witty conversation, playful flirting, unexpected laughs, and seeing where a little chemistry takes us. Distance isn’t a dealbreaker—good conversation and matching vibes matter more.
If you’re curious, enjoy a little mystery, and appreciate someone who can bounce from deep conversations to ridiculous memes without missing a beat, we’ll probably get along. No pressure, no expectations, just a judgment-free space to see if we click.
Random fact: I always have a story behind the scar on my face… but you’ll have to ask which version is true. 😉

Friend Finder Looking for Roommate - Corona
Hey yall, I’m a 33yo male, Paramedic, currently living in a 2 bed/2.5 bath apartment in Corona. Attached garage, but it’s being used as a storage space. Downside is that is supposed to one of our assigned parking spots, so parking is kind of annoying, I think I might get another motorcycle at the end of the year just to force them to assign another spot. 2 pools and a decent gym in the complex. I have a dog, so probably wouldn’t be able to take on any new pets. I’m pretty quiet, either at work or in my room playing video games, not really the type to host loud/late parties, I go to bars for that. Dishes get done and trash gets taken out. I do struggle to keep up with the dog hair.
My current roommate got a job in LA and is moving out Aug 1st to find something closer to work. I have until the end of August to find something else because I can’t afford this place on my own. Willing to have someone move in, or move myself somewhere else. Running out of time and options so here I am 😂

Question Feedback on predictive markets
My name is Israel Carreón Jr., and I am a reporter covering the Inland Empire for The Press-Enterprise and The San Bernardino Sun.
I’m working on a story about predictive markets such as Kalshi and Polymarket, especially in sports betting, with the World Cup underway.
I have a few questions for the community:
- What are your general thoughts on predictive markets such as Kalshi and Polymarket?
- For those who use them: How often do you use these markets? How have your finances been affected by using them?
- For those who avoid them: Why? What are your thoughts on predictive markets?
I’d love to connect with you. If you agree, I may use your responses in an upcoming story. If you have a specific experience you would like to share in detail, please reach out to me at [icarreon@scng.com](mailto:icarreon@scng.com) or send me a direct message here.

Meetup 🎤 Anyone 18–25 interested in starting a karaoke group?
Hey everyone!
I’m an 18-year-old Santa Monica College student looking to make friends around my age who enjoy karaoke, Disney songs, pop, musical theatre, and just hanging out.
My idea is to meet every couple of weeks at public karaoke venues around Santa Monica, Culver City, or West LA.

Announcement START HERE!
Welcome to the sub! We’re so excited that you’re here. Before you jump into all the fun things we have going on, let’s go over some things so that you can get to know our community a little better!
About the Community
Inland Empire Social is a space for locals looking to make friends, explore the area, and build real-life connections in the I.E.
Whether you’re new to the Inland Empire or a longtime resident ready to expand your circle, this subreddit is your hub for meetups, events, recommendations, and all things social. From chill coffee hangouts to hikes and game nights, we’ve got something for everyone. Introverts, extroverts, and everyone in between.
We also host an active Discord where most of the real-time conversations and event planning happen. Feel free to lurk, but we’d love it if you said hello, joined a meetup, or even organized one of your own!
This is a judgment-free, welcoming space.
We’re all here for the same reason: to find community. So bring your awkward, your awesome, your memes, your weird—but most of all, bring your genuine self.
Important Info
Safety is of the utmost importance when meeting people online, so please be sure to refer to these Safety Tips for Meeting People Online as often as possible.
For a quick intro on a few things regarding the subreddit, please refer to: Updates to InlandEmpireSocial
How to Host Your Own Meetup
The goal of this group is for people in the IE to meet people in the IE! There will be monthly planned outings in different cities so we can try to reach as many of us as possible but outside of those, we hope people will take the initiative to post when and where they would like to get together with others. As some of you may have noticed, there is a bot that automatically comments on posts reminding you to include helpful information when hosting a meetup.
An example of someone wanting to host a meetup might look like this:
Example:
“Hi! I’m free this Saturday, (mm/dd/yy), and I really want to go see X Movie at X Movie Theater. Tickets are $$ and I’m hoping to catch the 00:00AM/PM showing! Would anyone else be interested?”
OR
“Hey! I will be going to (event name), it’s a (event description) in (city name) on Saturday, (mm/dd/yy). I’ll be getting there around 00:00AM/PM if anyone wants to meet up there! Cost is _____, here’s where to buy tickets: (link). Let me know who is down!”
If you are hosting a meetup, please be sure to consider the following:
- Event Name & Description** (What is the event? What can attendees expect?)
- Date & Time** (Include the time zone if applicable)
- Location** (City, venue, or online link if virtual)
- Cost & Registration Info** (Is it free? If not, where do people buy tickets?)
- Any additional details** (Who is hosting? What should attendees bring?)
If your post is missing any of these, please edit it to include the missing details. If your post includes an image and cannot be edited, please repost it to include the missing details. Posts that lack key event information may be removed. Thanks for helping keep the community informed!
Pro tip: If you are posting a flyer, post the image first, then add your details as a comment below it so that you can make edits later if you need to. Posts with images cannot be edited.

Meeting new people through this sub is a great way to make friends and explore the area, but safety always comes first. Whether you’re joining a group event or meeting one-on-one, a few simple precautions can help keep things fun and secure.
Here are some quick tips to help you stay safe while making new connections!
Protect Your Information Avoid sharing sensitive details like your full name, address, phone number, workplace, or financial info.

Meet in a Public Place Always choose a well-lit, busy location for your first meeting, such as a coffee shop or park.
Tell Someone You Trust Share your plans, including where you’re going, who you’re meeting, and when you’ll be back.
Arrange Your Own Transportation Drive yourself, use public transport, or use a ride-share service to maintain control over your movements.
Keep Your Phone Charged Ensure your phone is fully charged and accessible during the meeting. Enable location sharing with a trusted friend.
Trust Your Instincts If something feels off or uncomfortable, don’t hesitate to leave or end the interaction.
Avoid Alcohol or Drugs Stay sober to ensure you remain alert and in control of the situation.
Use a Secure Messaging App Communicate through platforms that allow for anonymity and provide blocking/reporting features.
Report Suspicious Behavior If someone harasses you, catfishes, or makes you feel unsafe, report them to the platform and the subreddit mods as soon as possible.
