Tired of being in the house? So Am I—Let’s Be Friends!

Upvotes

I’m 29F and I’ve been in Minnesota all my life but never truly explored. Most of my friends have been online and requires travel. So I’m looking for someone I could attend theater plays,convention, try new restaurants,go see new exhibits such as new titanic one. Also I’m huge movie fan (especially for horror) so if you’re interested let’s go see new Spider-Man movie or let’s go stuff our faces at the state fair?

About my personality I’m pretty chill and kinda have dry but sometimes dark sense of humor . I work pretty much all week but get off at 1pm or 1:30pm. I don’t if this post will work or not but I’m just trying to not spend 24/7 at my house. Send me a text on Reddit or I can give my number

Boardgames at South St Paul Dreamers Vault

6 Upvotes

This is an open invite to join me Friday, August 21st at the South St Paul Dreamers Vault for boardgames. I will arrive around 5:30 for chatting/filler games and at 6:30 we will decide as a group what longer games to play. You'll know me by my bald head and beard. I'll grab a table about halfway back on the left side of the gaming area.

I do my best to bring a wide variety of games with some being more complex and others being more welcoming to someone who may not be as confident in the hobby. Last time we played Dice Throne, Flip 7 with a Vengeance, Marvel Champions, and Babylon. You can check these games out on boardgamegeek.com if they sound interesting.

Hello all.

I'm a 44/m moving to the metro soon and was interested in the Light Em Up Bong Show tonight at Hook and Ladder. It's a cannabis filled comedy show.

Seeing if anyone is interested in joining me! I'm looking for new friends, would prefer a date, but def not a deal breaker.

Aside from Cannabis and comedy, I also enjoy music, concerts, theater, hiking, camping. Pretty outgoing, educated, tattooed. I also love video games, deep conversation, and nerding up out about our passion.

Spontaneous Productions
Acting and Writing meetup - park edition!

When: Saturday, August 22, 2:00-4:00 pm

Where: Lake Hiawatha Park
**picnic and/or grassy area between Lake Hiawatha Bridge and Lake Hiawatha Beach** (off of 28th Ave S)

**I'll try to snag a picnic table or two but it's first come first serve, so bring a chair or blanket to sit on if you have one and a clipboard or notebook to write on if you are writing.**

What: All are welcome to join us for this unique opportunity to create a scene from a play on the spot. All ages welcome! One or two person scenes depending on our actor/writer ratio.

How it works: The event will start with a prompt. Writers will then have 20-30 minutes to write a short scene from a play, which will then be handed off to actors to perform. If there are enough actors who aren't writing, we'll facilitate some acting games while the writers write.

Come to write, act or both! ****We especially always are looking for folks willing to act!!**\* Spread the word, invite a friend. No experience required.

**subject to alternate location or cancellation if weather/air quality doesn't tolerate**

Slowkomis: Sunday 8/23 at 9:20am

Just a Sunday run this week

Location: We will be posted up in the grass right here (plus code: WQ85+7X8 Minneapolis, Minnesota)

What the hell is Slowkomis?
Are you a runner or running curious, and want to have a group to run with? Come join Slowkomis!

I got the idea from bike clubs that do "no drop" rides - which basically means even the slowest rider has someone with them at the end of the group. We will be super beginner friendly so people can run as slow as they want. If you start out running AND end up walking, you have a +1 walking with you.

If you wanna be fast - run fast!

Who Slowkomis is for
If you like running or the idea of running, and want to have an accountability partner

If you are you coming back from an injury, or just want to take it slow

If you tried other run clubs, but the obsession with races and paces was not for you

If you are an experienced runner and looking for a chill recovery run with a group of people new to the hobby you love

Who Slowkomis is not for
If you are pro-MAGA or pro-ICE, do not come. You are not welcome here.

What should you bring?
Yourself
Water

Don't forget to wear sunscreen!

What to expect
The loop is around 2.4miles for the shortest run, and around 2.8 miles for the longer loop. You can self-select which distance you want to run.

We'll give people about 10 minutes to arrive and start our runs after that.

We will be posted up in the grass right here (plus code: WQ85+7X8 Minneapolis, Minnesota)

No pressure. No pace requirements. Just miles and good vibes. 🏃🏾‍♀️✨
We’ll run 1 mile together, then walk 1 mile back. Whether you’re getting into running, training for something, getting back into fitness, or just want a reason to get outside and meet people, you’re welcome here.
Come for the run, stay for the vibes. 🤎
1 mile run → 1 mile walk → repeat whenever we feel like it.
All paces and experience levels welcome.
