We've all heard that making friends is hard, loneliness is an epidemic, and the internet is making us all forget how to be humans. So let's ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING about it and talk to other human beings!
You'll pair up with the other nice people who showed up and switch partners every so often (kinda like speed-dating, but without the speed and without the dating). A fabulous host leads the whole shebang, and question cards guide conversation a few notches deeper than usual so you don't accidentally talk about what you do for work six times in a row. You can always pick another question if you don't vibe with one. Feel free to come alone (most people do!) or bring a friend.
