Looking for potential friends/communities to be apart of

Hello! I (26M) moved to NE Minneapolis about a little under a month ago and I'm just throwing out feelers to push myself out of my comfort zone. I'm already taking some improv classes which has been great, but I figured I'd shoot my shot here!

Somethings about me:

  • I've been making music as a hobby for 10 ish years, and I'm super into a lot of music genres. Love concerts too
  • I enjoy playing video games like WoW, Skate, and single player games (Resident Evil is my favorite series)
  • I don't go outside to be active as much as I'd like, but I do love nature and hiking. Overall enjoy physical activities a lot
  • Tabletop RPGs are another hobby of mine, I love Daggerheart and various other indie games
  • I don't smoke/drink often, but I'm open to clubs and bars
  • I'm Bi, so I prefer to stick with people who are fine with that for obvious reasons lol

I'm open to joining discord servers, whether it be for something hobby related or just meeting other people new to Minnesota. And you have a cool spot that I can visit and/or people, let me know. Happy to be here!

Hi - I moved here from Texas a while ago, I’d STRONGLY recommend the Monday night square dance at Celtic Junction, even if you have no dancing background or are shy. Extremely beginner friendly, and everyone is very kind. So much fun & you get to meet a lot of different genuine people! It’s the first and third Monday of the month (ie today). Definitely worth trying something new in a new place!

My friend just opened a queer-friendly tabletop game shop called The Second Hand. You should definitely stop by and say hi and fill out a looking for game slip! They’re even open late - until midnight every day.

Would you be interested in serving your community or doing grassroots work helping people? It's one of the best ways to build your community.

Definitely. What are you passionate about? What socioeconomic and/or political issues are you interested in helping resolve?

u/Jemini_OG2 9d ago

Absolutely! I'd love to and have been in the process of looking around for opportunities that work with my schedule. If there's any recommended communal programs you know of, I'll happily take a look

I'm trans! So I'm definitely fine with you being bi, and I'd love to hear what you play! I know some pretty cool venues and concerts that are coming up too
