📚Reading books and discussing them are two distinct experiences! Conversations about books and sharing insights help us better appreciate literature and enrich our lives. Let's grab a drink (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) and discuss books we're currently reading or have recently enjoyed—whether poetry, fiction, or non-fiction. Bring your physical book or e-reader. There's no formal structure or agenda—just books and good conversation.💬 It's a perfect place to get book recommendations and rediscover your reading momentum if you've hit a slump. We welcome readers of all backgrounds and interests! ⚠️**Something Happened?** If something unpleasant happened to you, it may happen to others. Even if it seems minor, don't hesitate to reach out to me. 🔍 **How to find us?** * When I reach the venue, I'll leave a comment in the meetup where the group is seated. Normally, the booking is in my name, so you can ask the staff for the group. * If you're unable to find us, leave a comment in the meetup page. I'll be able to guide you. We highly encourage you to move between tables and strike up conversations with fellow book lovers. These discussions about literature and reading recommendations are often the highlight of the event! As an organizer, I'm always looking for feedback about the event and suggestions for new events, so feel free to suggest ideas to me. 💡 I look forward to seeing you all! 😊

**Hey Spanish Learners!** Ready to practice your Spanish while enjoying a great discussion? Join us for our next practice session based on a short film about the mysterious world of neighbors. We’ll dive into the thin line between connection and obsession as we analyze the curious behavior of Rosa, a neighbor who seems a little too eager to share her secrets. Is she just being friendly, or is there something more unsettling behind her constant calls? It’s a perfect opportunity for A2 students to move beyond the textbook, practice real-world vocabulary, and debate whether the people living next door are true friends or strangers we should fear. **The Plan:** 1\. Make a **8€** payment on **Revolut to @haleema2002** 2\. Send **your email** and **a pic of your payment** to Blanca on WhatsApp **+353 87 761 7792**. 3. **Meet us** on the **18th of March** at **16:00** at the Grafton Hotel Bar **to discuss** the video story. This is an excellent chance to sharpen your listening comprehension and speaking fluency in a relaxed, social setting. I look forward to seeing you there! **¡No te lo pierdas! (Don't miss out!)**

***One family, the heart of the American dream. When wartime delivers profits for Joe, it comes at a price when his partner is charged with criminal manufacturing deals, and his eldest son goes missing in action. Will peacetime bring peace of mind, or will he be confronted by the consequence of his actions?*** Film recording of a live West End performance. Seats unassigned: please [book your own ticket](https://web-booking.lighthousegroup.ie/Ticketing/visSelectTickets.aspx?cinemacode=1001&txtSessionId=35619&showtimeId=1001-35619&visLang=1).

Bryan Cranston (*Breaking Bad*) and Marianne Jean-Baptiste (*Hard Truths*) feature in a five-star, triumphantly acclaimed new production of Arthur Miller’s classic play, from visionary director Ivo Van Hove (*A View from the Bridge*). Paapa Essiedu (*I May Destroy You*), Tom Glynn-Carney (*House of the Dragon*), and Hayley Squires (*I, Daniel Blake*) also feature in this disturbingly prescient play.

Join us every Sunday and tell a story as a group by playing a beginner-friendly roleplaying game. Every week we have 2-3 different games - you will choose which game you play on the day. All materials provided and rules are explained at the start of each game, you just need to bring your imagination. 🎭 **This week's facilitators:** * 🧙 **Dave** with *[Ars Magica](https://www.atlas-games.com/arsmagica/)*, a game about magi in a mythic version of medieval Europe shaped by hidden magic, ancient traditions, and rival powers. In the wild frontiers of the Slavic lands, a child has vanished into the forest. Branded a witch by some, sought as a prodigy by others, he is now hunted from all sides. You’ll follow his trail through shifting woods and uneasy villages, caught between rival factions, a ruthless magus seeking an apprentice, and armed bands closing in. The forest itself resists you: spirits mislead, paths twist, and nothing is quite what it seems. Expect investigation, tense roleplay, moral choices, and possible combat. Who do you trust? And when the hunters arrive, what will you do with the boy? * 🐍 **Adam** with *[Agon](http://www.agon-rpg.com/)*, where you play mythic Bronze Age heroes cast adrift by the gods and sailing from island to island, searching for home and competing for glory. On the island of Nimos, the funeral of the king's son is underway, alongside ceremonial games of hand-to-hand combat in his honour. But the fighters are twisted into savagery by strange elixirs, and the land itself appears poisoned. Will you discover the source and true nature of this dangerous alchemy? * **🏘️ Filip** with *[The Quiet Year](https://buriedwithoutceremony.com/the-quiet-year)*, a GM-less, dice-less game of narrative and worldbuilding. Who... who's there at the horizon? Is that fairies? Orcs? Fairy-orcs? Demons?! Surely not demons... Whoever they are (or will be) - they need a quiet year. You play as a medium-sized community of - well, whatever we collectively decide, to tell their story over a year in a new place entirely. *** Feel free to ask the organisers any questions you have (here or on our [Discord server](https://tinyurl.com/indie-rpgs-dublin)).

This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington. The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo. Writing is largely a solitary craft. Practicing with others in a community setting may be the thing you need to fire your own routine. We’ll meet on Wednesday evenings, starting the clock at 6:30, following a brief period of introductions. This is solid writing time and all inclusive. Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you. The market boasts a Starbucks, a full service bar and various affordable food options. Parking is plentiful, free Wifi is provided as well as outlets for charging your devices, though they are somewhat limited, so plan accordingly. Show up as early as you like, or stay late. This group tends to socialize some, both before and after the alloted time, but this is not mandatory to you. Feel free to come and go as you please and late arrivals are welcome. The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit. Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times. Feel free to message me privately wth any questions and/ or concerns you may have. Happy writing!
