Join your town’s local discord server. If it has two, one is the shit one. If it doesn’t have one, start it. I started a city discord that grew to over 600 members in two years. Is important to delegate as you grow and encourage all members to try organizing and leading events if they like, at least trying once.

If you can’t host, you’ll need to recruit at least one person that can before the ball gets rolling.

If you like discussing books and films, which are some of my favorite things, movie nights are great easy get togethers and if you don’t have a member with a big living room and TV you can all go to the cinema together (but that’s expensive).

A book club can even be done in a voice channel.

If your town has a boardgame cafe, that’s really good to take prospective friend groups.

If you don’t have that option, look for community organizations with a building, such as a progressive church. Unfortunately that will put some members off events, especially members of many minority groups.

Hiking is free and doesn’t require securing a venue.

You can gain a lot of real (not nebulous internet) community, friends, gratitude, and (to put it bluntly) clout.

During the summer y’all can hang out in parks.

Some people say beating your kids doesn’t work.

I’m like, “What!? Am I the only one that didn’t get a force field?”.

Lift weights

Olympic walking. I’ll be taking it really really easy. I’ll have headphones and an ice cream cone

Where are AI ‘agents’ at now?

Does, “I couldn’t open the file” actually have anything to do with the instance of the program you ran on your computer the last week, or is it just the most likely written response to “did you even read the data” based on its training set?

I’m not a vet, but maybe ask one about Botox on the problem spot?
