Blogging Groups Los Angeles

Los Angeles Blogging Mastery and Networking Mixer

We are getting together for a relaxed evening of conversation and connection at the Los Angeles Blogging Mastery and Networking Mixer. This is a space for writers, content creators, and digital storytellers of all levels to step away from the screen and talk shop in person. Whether you are currently building a niche site, working on a long-term personal project, or just looking to brainstorm new ideas with others who understand the unique rhythm of the blogging world, you will find a welcoming group here. We will keep the agenda loose, focusing on genuine conversation rather than formal presentations. Expect a mix of shared experiences, advice on navigating the current online landscape, and the chance to meet people who are doing the work right alongside you. It is a great opportunity to expand your local circle and gain some fresh perspective on your current projects. If you are free and interested in connecting with fellow creators, please let us know you are coming by clicking the button below. We are looking forward to seeing everyone there.

A San Marino/Lacy Park & Beyond, 10k-Steps Challenge #46 [TCP MOAI Adventure]

**Welcome to [The Canis Pack IKIGAI 10K Adventure] + Purpose, Friendship, Togetherness & Support!** **We Will Not Wait Until Life Is Not Hard To WELCOME Strength, Beauty & Joy Into Our Lives!** **SNIFF - EXPLORE - EXERCISE** [**THIS IS A WALK FOR PEOPLE WHO DO NOT HAVE DOGS - AND FOR THOSE WHO DO**] **AGENDA;** **\- Gathering at 5:45 \- 1485 Virginia Rd\. Lacy Park** **\- Leaving at 6:00 pm Promptly** **\- Bathroom Break as we head out** **\- Continue with the Inner and Outer Loop walk** **\- After the Loops\, then exploring the surrounding San Marino neighborhood\.** **\- This will be a 10K Walk – About 6\.2\-5 miles** **\- 2 Hours or so Walk** **\- 8:00 pm \- Returning to Lacy Park** **WHAT TO BRING;** **\- Water** **\- A Warm Jacket for Chilly Nights** **\- Flash Lite** **\- Bug Spray** **\- Snacks if needed** **\- Good walking shoes** **\- Comfortable walking clothes** **\- A bright Jacket for the Dark days** **LISTEN, THERE'S MORE;** **Goal: A STRONG LIKE-MINDED TOGETHERNESS!** \* We will Establish Togethereness \* We will Bring about a Strong Awareness \* We will Establish a Strong National Presence \* We will Be Active and Responsible \* We will Always Think as a Like-Minded Group \* We will Put our Health and Wellbeing First \* We are a Pack-Family **\* We will Gather and Walk with Harmony** I know—10,000 steps might not sound like a lot, but for those of us who sit at desks or stand in one place all day, it's not always easy to hit that goal. And while 15,000 or 20,000 steps would be great, they also require more time. So to make it fun and manageable, we’re starting with 10k steps as a challenge—and we may increase the goal in future events. **THE IMPORTANT POINTS ARE THESE;** Space is limited, so **please RSVP only if you’re 100% sure you’ll attend.** 🙏🏾If you RSVP and don’t show, you will be 🚩Red Flagged 🚩for future events—we all appreciate reliability and respect for others' abilities to get a spot to walk!🙏🏾 Expect to hit somewhere between **10,000–12,000 steps (approximately 7.5-9 miles),** depending on the pace and group. This **midweek walking event** is going really well. So, let’s **stay active together** and **make this a Strong part of our routine. See You There** [COMMENT BELOW IF YOU ARE IN AGREEMENT] **NOW IS THE TIME, LET’S GET TO WALKING** Btw. Yes, Lacy Park allows dogs. However, they must be on a leash and it will be your own responsibility. No running involved. Just a casual, social walk. Bring water if you need it. **Free street parking is available in the surrounding areas. Please avoid parking inside the park lot, as the gates may close before we finish our walk.** **Park closes at dusk so I strongly advise against parking inside any of the lots. Just drive around, and you can easily find free open parking spaces.** **Lacy Park is located at 1485 Virginia Road, San Marino, CA 91108**

Spiritualism and its Evidential Theologies

Bake Stuff with Lindsay - Live Baking/Comedy Show + Dessert

live baking + audience chaos + special guests + questionable decisions ### **Bake Stuff with Lindsay** The most unhinged baking show you’ve never seen. Bake Stuff with Lindsay is a live, audience-immersive baking experience where chaos is encouraged and we actually eat the results. It’s a fever dream for anyone who’s ever wished TV bakers would loosen up, get messier, and curse a little (a lot) more. Along the way, we attempt to answer important questions like: Do feelings matter more than the recipe? and Does the 5 second rule count with liquids too? **What to expect:** *• Live baking (in real time, with real stakes)* *• Audience involvement throughout the show (games, prizes, FUN)* *• \*SPECIAL GUESTS\*, commentary, and mild spiraling* *• Questionable decisions, emotional detours, and laughter* *• Dessert served (assuming nothing is completely destroyed)* **Theme: HALLOWEEN TREATS** Featuring: Kyle Ayers (Sous Chef) and a panel of special guests! * **\*\*You must buy your ticket through the Eventbrite page [HERE](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/bake-stuff-with-lindsay-live-bakingcomedy-show-dessert-tickets-2002971464569) \*\***

Talking with Frenemies, and other engaging dialogues.

In today’s world, it can be extremely daunting to have a conversation with family or friends who have a different view from our own, especially when the topic is politics. Most of us just avoid the topic. But does that really get us anywhere? Whether you're a Democrat or Republican, most people agree that, as a country, we’re fighting over problems instead of working together to solve them. Resolutionaries is one of countless organizations working to make conversations possible, so we can start to find common values and create solutions to our many challenges. In past events, we have focused on high conflict topics such as gun control and immigration - how these issues affect us and how we can share our views in a way that unites us rather than divides us. Resolutionaries aim to change our current paradigms of "us vs them" and "we're right, you're wrong" to "we have much in common" and "we all want solutions, let's find them together."

🍜 Hainan Chicken, Noodles at Nandao 🍜

This time we’re heading to **Nandao Rice & Noodle**, a newer Monterey Park spot specializing in Singaporean-style Hainan chicken rice, noodles, wontons and a few things that sound suspiciously like we’re going to order way too much food. Their **Hainan chicken rice** is the headliner: tender poached chicken, savory rice and three sauces that give you plenty of opportunity to pretend you know exactly which combination is correct. The braised beef noodle soup, spicy pork-and-shrimp wontons and chicken lime cold noodles have also been getting a lot of attention. The *LA Times* recently went so far as to call Nandao one of its favorite SGV spots right now. [Los Angeles Times](https://www.latimes.com/food/story/2026-09-10/best-hainan-chicken-in-la-nandao-rice-noodle?utm_source=chatgpt.com) Yelp diners have been praising the tender Hainan and soy-sauce chicken, flavorful rice, friendly service and seasoning, which is usually a much better sign than a restaurant describing its own food as "mouthwatering." [Roadtrippers](https://maps.roadtrippers.com/us/monterey-park-ca/food-drink/nandao-rice-noodle-monterey-park-ca--0) So come hungry. Order something you've never tried, steal recommendations from the person next to you, and meet some new people over bowls of carbs and meat. Basically civilization at its finest. **Yelp:** [Nandao Rice & Noodle on Yelp](https://www.yelp.com/biz/nandao-rice-and-noodle-monterey-park?utm_source=chatgpt.com) **RSVP Info:** Space is limited, so RSVP early. Reminder: Please bring enough cash, Venmo, or Zelle to cover your portion. My Venmo is @Marvin-Quitoriano or Zelle me at 6264845164

Hike around Haunted Hayride

We will walk around the haunted hayride to check it out. Walk is easy walk less than 1 mile. We are NOT going on the rides or inside. We will walk on trail that goes around it. They usually charge for parking so tell them you are here for a hike and not a customer of the ride. We will meet in front of the merry go round. We will wait 15 or so minutes.

AI, Art & Vibecoding - StrangeNew.World @ 310 Coffee

We frame ourselves as **"a support group for the technological singularity"** and we are an eclectic mix of open-minded thinkers, artists, and tinkerers who believe in embracing the emerging technologies and capabilities in the most humanitarian way possible. Our meetings have a super casual and open atmosphere where all are welcome to contribute. Feel free to come late or leave early. So whether you're an AI enthusiast or skeptic, a creative professional already using AI on the daily, or someone just starting their first vibe coding project, this group may be for you! **NOW NEW & IMPROVED** We are doing "Hack-a-salons" after every meeting (starting at 5pm) now that 310 Coffee is staying open later. So please bring your laptops or art projects, or works in progress that you have questions on or want to present to the group. No podiums... only passion projects, good people and great vibes! ☺️ **What to Expect** Interesting conversations, relevant content, and educational resources. We are a diverse community of people who want to help each other and the world around us. We meet in person once a week at **310 Coffee in Culver City from 3-5pm**, we share our work and interesting news in our Whatsapp group, put on remote Learning Labs, go to events together, and encourage our members (who have the availability) to participate in a learning collective where we can volunteer to give each other one-on-one crash courses in various artistic, technical, and entrepreneurial disciplines. Here is a list of what we can teach: [https://strangenew.world/labs/what-we-know](https://strangenew.world/labs/what-we-know) We also encourage each of our members to take on a Passion Project, which could be as simple as getting up and running with a new artistic medium or project, or as complex as laying the groundwork for your dream business or career. We believe there has never been a better time (at least in OUR lifetimes) to set your sights on what your ideal life would be two years from now and then just start moving toward it. And maybe we can help you do that by giving you the hand-holding you need to get over that first hump, which can sometimes be the most difficult part. **How to Give Back** If you are a member looking to give back, or if you like what our organization is doing, then please follow, subscribe, rate us, and smash that like! 🤣 I know it seems silly to many of you, but in the attention economy, just the act of following us, liking our posts, and reviewing our events can make a huge difference in how the algorithm shines upon us. Also, if you would like to support us in a more direct way, please consider giving us a one-time donation, subscribing to one of our tiers, or sponsoring us. We pay for a lot of stuff out of pocket, so please consider becoming a patron to support the overall longevity of our group and vision. [https://strangenew.world/support-us](https://strangenew.world/support-us) **More Information** What we explore during our meetings really depends on who shows up and what they want to discuss: * The changing job market. What skills will matter in 10 years * The future of business and the creative industries * Chatbots, LLMs, and Agentic Workflows * Using AI for scientific or artistic exploration * Will generative art destroy Hollywood or save it? * What is consciousness? What constitutes intelligence? * The various types/platforms of vibecoding and which is best for your project * The end of capitalism as we know it * Are we entering the 2nd Cognitive Revolution? **Learn more at: [https://strangenew.world](https://strangenew.world)**
