The very first one I went to was a Friday evening Warhol Museum trip with dinner afterward. I made a couple friends there. They've done some wine tour near the Strip I believe, a North Park full moon night hike, queer cinema get-together, etc. Kenny plans some really cool things and it's well-organized. Unfortunately sometimes the notifications go out waayyyyy late so definitely subscribe to that group and stay on top of the invites. I won't be able to make the zombie thing tonight so hopefully something good pops up again next month. Also, it's not all guys. I think it's usually like 60% men, 40% women, thereabouts.

I wish I knew. Grindr and Scruff are absolutely terrible the past few years. Especially if you don't live in Shadyside or Squirrel Hill or idk what the next trendy neighborhood is. When I lived in Columbus I started a litter sweeping group and met a few guys that way.

I'd recommend volunteering or hobby group first to make friends, and then go from there. I haven't made the time for anything this year due to a crazy work schedule but I probably will now that things are slowing down.

Also, there's a LGBT singles meetup group that meets once a month. They're meeting tonight at a Halloween event if you can make it. I have gone to their events before and they're pretty solid.

As usual, they started entirely too late this year. I don't think most construction started in earnest until probably July. Now they're rushing to catch up. Not to mention a lot of the sites I pass on a daily basis are empty of workers probably 3 days a week.

Lol I forget that place even exists until I'm heading down Flaugherty Run to go someplace. Is it any good?

I work in Wexford and they have probably majority green trees still but then some of these absolutely bright-ass rose-red trees much brighter than the one on the left in the picture, I can't explain haha.

Yep it's looking pretty good around here and the best is yet to come. I have been looking at last year's pics (I moved from Beaver to Butler literally this weekend last year) to gauge when the best colors will come. I'm definitely excited, after this chilly weekend.

It usually means someone testing the waters of sobriety and feeling conflicted on how to express it. This isn't a term i would ask someone to clarify, just offer some suggestions where alcohol is completely absent or at least very cloistered.

Edit: Don't forget Sober October and other cessation experiment months are out there. Probably expect more of this question in January.
