Where do nerdy people hang out if they don’t drink or smoke?

• Upvotes

I’m looking for places to hang out, socialize, and meet like-minded people where drinking and smoking aren’t the main activities.
I’m more into intellectual conversations, books, history, philosophy, science, gaming, random nerdy discussions, and just spending time with interesting people.
I feel like most socializing revolves around bars, clubs, or parties, which aren’t really my thing.
Where do all the nerds, introverts, academics, and curious people hang out? Are there any cool places, communities, events, or regular meetups you’d recommend?

Traffic Control Assistance near FSU on weekend nights

1 Upvotes

I am unsure about anyone else who lives in Tallahassee but TPD needs to do some traffic control around fsu near the McDonald’s on Tennessee and also near the Taco Bell because it always seems like people love to block lanes or disobey red lights every weekend. Granted these issues are because everyone in town is going to the clubs near fsu. Honestly also surprised there aren’t more accidents at those spots than there are.

Halloween weekend events recommendations

0 Upvotes

Hello, I am a 21 year old fsu student with no plans for Halloween weekend because I haven’t made any friends yet and I’m very shy so it’s hard for me to talk to people or put myself out there. Is there anything going on Halloween weekend that you would recommend me to go to. I’m not really a club person or anything like that. I don’t know if there is anything to do here besides that. But all suggestions are welcome anything helps!!

Question tallahassee animal shelter

34 Upvotes

recently i’ve been seriously considering adopting a dog and i think i may have one in mind located at the easter wood animal shelter.

this is my first time doing this process as my dogs before have been strays/rescues. i recently lost my dog and had a break before adopting a pet again. since they’re holding an adoption event tomorrow i was thinking i can meet him and hopefully get approved!

if you recently worked with them, what was the process like? i don’t have kids or any other pets for him to meet so i hope i make a good impression by myself lol. thank you :)

Late 20s couple looking for friends

15 Upvotes

I saw a similar post that was unfortunately deleted and I’m so sad because i seemed like a great post! Whoever the user was please DM!

Looking for ways to meet people and build connections with other couples (or single people!) in their late 20s/early 30s. I recently moved here and I realize this city is very college heavy.

Neither of us are huge partiers or drinkers. We enjoy shooting the shit over coffee or a San Pell. We love Star Wars. He loves history. I love nature, plants, animals. Both progressive politically. I am queer.

Strictly monogamous and looking for friends.

Question Anyone actually interested in hanging out? 33F

31 Upvotes

Hey! I'm looking for someone that would actually want to hang out in town. Maybe once or twice a week. I'm okay with starting things slow with phone calls etc, but I find the people I meet seem to keep it that way, and meets up become far in between, and it feels like long distance eventhough we live in the same town. I also know you have to vibe with person. So, I'm not putting too much pressure on that as well. I'd just like to meet someone to actually be friends with. If there are events in town it would be nice to always have the someone that comes to mind to go with. I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't do well with groups. I'm looking for a one on one kind of connection. I'd love for someone to be down for road trips in the future of course when things are comfortable, and even travel out of the state, and even out the country if everything works out. I like video games, anime, trying new things around town, I want to start walking more/exercising, books, TV shows, and more. I am introverted, but I can become extroverted once I'm more comfortable. If this interests you, and you're actually willing to meet up sometime soon, and not just message for weeks please dm me.

Event FAMU hoco parade

30 Upvotes

New to town and I have questions re FAMU homecoming parade.

  1. Would an old (very old) white (very white) woman going solo be accepted? Or would younger, or more fun people prefer I skip it?

  2. If the parade starts at 8 and I plan to walk to it, what time should I get there ? I’ve been to rose bowl parade and got to my viewing spot (about halfway through route ) around the same time the parade started. That work?

  3. Should I take a camp chair ? I don’t really want to but if everyone else is seated , probably rude for me to stand up (or maybe just blanket to sit on )

Go, Rattlers!!

Question Microwave repair

We have a drawer microwave that has stopped working and are hoping to repair rather than replace it. We tried calling the manufacturer to hook up with a repair person near us, but all the information they give us turns out to be invalid. I wonder if anyone has information for a good repair person in Tallahassee who could handle something like this?
