#meetup.com

Just so you all know, meetup.com has taken a stand and is setting up free meetups for those that want to organize to resist the current political regime. Generally there is a cost for hosting a meetup but #resist meetups are free and there is a special page for finding them near you. There are a lot of new angry one star reviews on the app store from Trumpkins saying they are going to stop using the service. Thought my followers might be interested in signing up in their place for your organizing needs.

Meetup is great when you're trying to meet new people and go out more, but I find it hard to find groups that focus on things I'm into or would like to try because some of them have requirements that I can't always fulfill. I would love to find a group for young black girls but the ones that exist are for black women (usually older) and no shade but I'm trying to hang out with people my age, because we have more in common. There was one group called "young ambitious black girls" but the ambitious part bothers me because I'm not sure I'm ambitious. I might have to make my own group, but I don't know that I have the leadership skills to do something like that. I feel like you kinda have to be the life of a party to do that, and I'm really not. Anyway, I'll keep looking.

Anyone ever try meetup.com ? Does anyone have any stories/good experiences from it? I'm on the hunt for friends 👀 and I keep joining meetup groups but am too scared to go
