**Tonight's secret film will be: Hoppers**
Description
What if you could talk to animals and understand what they're saying? In Disney and Pixar's all-new feature film Hoppers, scientists have discovered how to "hop" human consciousness into lifelike robotic animals, allowing people to communicate with animals as animals! The adventure introduces Mabel, an animal lover who seizes an opportunity to use the technology, uncovering mysteries within the animal world that are beyond anything she could have imagined.

📚 Books & Social 🍸
📚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! 😊

Dream Circle Game
Dream Circle Game
Imagine a game that changes the way you see yourself and the world with every session — if you are willing to let it.
Imagine a game where you do not leave the table as the same person who sat down to play, unless it is your conscious choice to remain the same.
Imagine a game that is at the same time a challenge, a simulation, a mystery, an exploration, a laboratory of decisions, a social experiment, and a catalyst for unexpected conversations.
Could such a game exist?
For us, this is not a theoretical question.
For some time now, we have been working on creating it.
Dream Circle is an experiential game where players explore how collective dreams turn into reality.
Through a sequence of turns representing time, participants make decisions about how to grow their community, what to build, where to invest, and how to develop purpose-driven impact businesses within a small emerging world shaped by cooperation and limited resources.
The game relies on real-world data wherever reasonably possible.
Behind the game there is also a deeper narrative and lore that gradually unfolds for those who wish to explore it.
On the temple of Apollo at Delphi it was once written:
“Know thyself.”
Dream Circle is but another stone in the staircase of that endless journey.

Zazen Meditation + Dharma talk or Kinhin
The meaning of the word zen is meditation, zazen means sitting meditation. In zazen practice we begin to know ourselves, and to go beyond the limits of our personal ego. Within our tradition zazen is referred to as shikantaza, not doing, letting go of thoughts, dropping off body and mind. This sitting meditation is the focus of our practice. Language limits our ability to communicate the true nature of zen; it is something that is better understood
through practice. We are open to everyone interested in learning about zen.
Intro workshop for newcomers is available at 5.30pm each Sunday. The dojo is a sacred place and it is important to be considerate of everyone. We have many people that travel to practise together once a week or once a month. So for that reason it is really essential that we all know the structure of the sitting practise (when to sit, how to do Kinhin, the different bell sounds and their meaning etc), to ensure a silent, safe and meaningful meditation. And it's also great to meet everyone before the sitting practise. And answer any questions you may have.
We have zafus and zabutons (mats and cushions) for all to sit on. Chairs are available too.
Comfortable clothing for sitting, black or neutral tones best.
We greatly appreciate a donation of €5 to cover costs if it's possible for you.
Please arrive 10min before start so 6ish (if you're not doing the intro workshop).
You are very welcome to our dojo!
Cinema Breakfast- The Bride!
This week we'll head to see The Bride! in Cineworld at 11:30am
We'll meet outside the cinema from 11:15 (or inside if its raining)
Book seats in row G to sit together.
Afterwards we'll head to The Black Sheep pub for food and a chat.
Looking forward to seeing you then!

Let’s play… Goat Crashers / Demon Driven to the Maw /Get Lich or Try Dying
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. All materials provided and rules are explained at the start of This each game, you just need to bring your imagination.
***
This week's games:
**Scott** running [GOAT CRASHERS](https://gshowitt.itch.io/goat-crashers). ou're a cheeky little goat who just wants to party. Problem is, the only party in town doesn't want goats to attend. But to hell with them; you're going to get inside by any means necessary and have the BEST time.
**Eoin** running [Demon Driven to the Maw](https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/372360/demon-driven-to-the-maw), a horror adventure set in 16th century Scotland. A grand ball is in full swing at Firnhirst Castle. A thief is hiding among the revelers, in possession of a tremendously valuable marble. But the thief isn't the only strange guest in attendance, and there are signs of sinister machinations occurring behind the scenes. Will you find the marble and escape with your lives?
**Silvia** will run an International Women's Day special (women and NB only) of Get Lich or Try Dying. You have been woken from your not so eternal sleep by a disturbance in the world. A manosphere event is taking place at your ancestral family home. This is unacceptable.
This game has 1 space left, let me know if you want to join. First come, first served etc.

Humanist Program: Fighting the Efforts to Insert Religion into Public Education
The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event.
Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk.
Our March speakers are Molly Gaines and Zack Parrish, co-organizers of the Secular Education Association:
They will share their story of how a small group of Ohio parents grew into a national organization tracking released-time religious instruction and other church–state issues in public schools. The presentation will cover SEA’s early wins and hard lessons, what we’re seeing nationally right now, and how local advocates can play a meaningful role in protecting public education. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of the landscape — and practical ways to get involved.
Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online
