Hi all! I’m Kita, 28, and I was born and raised in Ohio, though my heart’s in Alabama. I’m a lover of learning, soap operas, classic TV shows, music, reading, writing, naps, and food. I am an author of erotic and LGBTQ romance, and I’m also a part of the LGBTQ and BDSM communities. I’d love friends who enjoy concerts, trying out new restaurants, going on hikes/walks, reading, spontaneous trips/drives, etc. I’m looking for someone loyal, kind, caring, funny, honest, patient, nonjudgmental, and talkative. I’m not picky on age, but being a part of the LGBTQ, disability, and alternative lifestyle communities are a plus! So, let’s talk!❤️😁

Hi! I'm a country blues, singer/songwriter from Louisville, KY. I'm playing 6-8 PM on January 25, 2025 at Rambling House in Columbus. We need a couple of Columbus bands to hop on the date. Please DM if interested or comment some suggestions. Thanks!

Hi! I work for a consumer research company. I'm looking to talk to people who are social/know the bar scene in Columbus, likes to host parties at home, and is the type to explore new restaurants but also have their go-to spots. This is in-person research on Wed Nov 13 or 14th, with compensation starting at $200. If anyone is interested, please DM me!

Any suggestions for a local bar or any place around Westerville to find singles?

Dinners, walks, movies and more… Mostly Westerville and Dublin areas. DM for questionnaire and invite!

Yeah, the title is exactly what is going on. Me (new to ranting on Reddit) and my gf are looking for some folks to hang out with. Yes, we have friends but they converted to being complete introverts, constantly flake, always out of town, or seem to be too busy to have fun. We would like to have some friends or groups to belong to that periodically meet up for a good relaxing time. Like unwind and enjoy a drink or two ya know? If you want to start off online, we can maybe video chat first or game it up online to get a feel for how we vibe that's cool as well. We just would like to meet up with some new local people.

Also, if anyone is interested let's talk and if you have a group or know of a group with good vibes, send the info my way..if you please. Thanks in advance :)

Hello all! I’ve got two COSI tickets for sale for $13 each, I can no longer go and just want to get rid of them. I was able to get them discounted as an OSU student!

here's my bio:

Dan Alten is an intelligent goofball from Kentucky who has headlined shows in 30 states playing everything from theaters to punk basements to art galleries to beloved comedy clubs. Doing over 200 shows a year bringing his tight night surreal nonsense to the people, like if the Ramones were one guy with a mustache and good jokes. He has opened for Kyle Kinane, Bobcat, Sam Tallent, Rory Scovel, Sarah Sherman from SNL, Johnny Pemberton, Hari Kondabolu, rapper Open Mike Eagle, DJ Doug Pound & David Leibe Hart from Tim & Eric, various punk bands with silly names, and a guy at an open mic who tried to throw his father’s ashes into the crowd. He has recorded 2 albums, written a zine, and filmed a pilot for an Amazon Prime stand up show that was lost to history. He’s funny. You will enjoy him and if not you can spit on his car

and here's a lil clip:

I'm a comedian on tour coming to headline Hashtag Comedy Club this Friday and I was wondering if there were any local blogs, Instagram pages, arts papers, or events calanders folks look to to find out about shows. Any info is appreciated!

thanks!

Hello everyone! Long time Columbus resident, and I've always had a passion for movies and seeing them in theatres. Reaching out to see if anyone would be interested in seeing movies together once a month or so. I am 29 (M) and interested in all kinds of movies (going solo to see Alien Romulus today pray for me). The group doesnt have to be anything formal, the movies and times can be tbd. I was thinking just a group chat would do for coordination. Comment or DM if interested!

Hi everyone I’m 24(F) I’m looking for some cool people to hang out with! I live in the Dublin area with my cat Tito. I enjoy going out for drinks, art, creating, shopping and connecting with nature! I would like to explore more of columbus and try new things ! ☺️

Hi all, 27M looking to make some more friends around central Ohio. I enjoy things like playing games, either indoor or outdoor. I used to be big into Volleyball and Ultimate Frisbee down by OSU Campus just haven’t played in years.

Hopefully looking to just meet new people and connect. Since OSU Football season is right around the corner I figured now might be a good time for making friends and watching games at the bar, party or whatever.

Hello, I’m new to the Columbus community and I moved here a few months back. I started to working at a job that guaranteed me and my roommate hours then we ended up not getting out on the schedule for weeks then once we actually started working there we only got about 10 hours.. long story short we fell behind on rent and now we’re about to face eviction court. We do work now and talked to our landlord about catching up but they are not willing to work with us and want the full amount of rent. Does anyone know of any assistance we can apply for or have any advice. I also have dd and Instacart.

Come join us for an unforgettable evening of gaming and camaraderie as we host The Autonomy Project's Tavern Night and dive into the magic of board games, card games, Dungeons & Dragons, and much more! Whether you're a rogue, cleric, wizard, or warrior, humans of every race, gender, and sexuality are welcomed to a diverse, inclusive games night for which we'll be busting out all of our favorite card games (okay, some of our favorite card games...) from Fluxx to Uno to Side Effects and a whole lot in between.

Every background is embraced, and every story is celebrated. We'll be dusting off classic favorites and exploring hidden gems across a number of gaming stations. We'll have D&D campaigns for you to jump into, whether you're a beginner or a seasoned pro, and an Euchre Table to check out. Adventuring and gaming is hungry work, so naturally, we'll have a selection of delectable snacks and energizing non-alcoholic drinks to quench your thirst and satisfy your hunger!

So join the adventure and grab your tickets soon to secure your spot at the table. Come dressed in whatever attire you feel most comfortable - casual, Renfaire, Festival, Cosplay - and while you're here, why not try your luck in our Tavern Night raffle? Every adventurer deserves to go home with some extra loot, and fortune favors the bold, right? We can't wait to see you there!

Bring your fellow adventurers and your lucky dice, and prepare for an evening filled with laughter, competition, and shared tales. Let the dice roll and the cards fall—it's Tavern Night, and the adventure begins with you!

This month's meeting topic: Meshtastic & LoRaWAN LoRaWAN (Long Range Wide Area Network) is a standardized protocol for low-power, wide-area wireless communication. It’s designed for connecting battery-operated devices over long distances.

Meshtastic is not LoRaWAN; it builds on LoRa technology but creates decentralized mesh networks.

Additionally, we chat about projects the group members are working on, some show-and-tell, and seek assistance from other members. Any maker topics are fair game: Electronics [Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ESP32,...], Laser Cutting/Engraving, 3D Printing, CNC, woodworking, metalworking, plasma cutters, textiles/fabrics, ...

Moved here last year, and been trying to find a group to play with. No luck so far but if anyone has any ideas or advice thanks in advance.

Hey, looking for a date night restaurant near some where downtown Columbus. This weekend. Key requests: • Somewhere with nice food and nice environment • Budget around 150 dollar. We don't drink so just the food. • Steakhouses yes and currently thinking about The Top, looking for something a bit more unique. • My girl and I don't drink so alcohol is not our priority just the food, the vibe and the price. • Really really just care about high quality/tasty food and overall vibe experience. Thank you for your suggestions.

[Moved to 5/20 as 5/27 is Memorial Day]

We miss pajama parties. There. We said it. We miss the playful indulgence of youth, the mischief, the laughter, the sounds and smells of a time and place when adulting was a distant concern, and the only thing that mattered was having fun. They say you can't go back again. We say you can. And you're invited to join us!
