(Cantonese,Mandarin) shared interests, so come together—like to listen to music
因为爱好所以认识
耳机是体外器官,歌单是私人日记。
喜欢一首歌会循环到天黑,
偶尔也想把耳机分给一个懂的人听。
这个下午,没有主讲人,没有流程,
甚至不需要刻意聊音乐。
只是把你和一群听歌品味相似的人或者爱听音乐的人,放进同一间屋子。
你们可以从最近循环的一首歌聊起,
也可以从歌手聊到生活、从旋律聊到回忆,
或者只是喝杯咖啡,听听别人在听什么。
音乐是起点,终点是认识几个同类。
也许会惊喜发现,原来也有喜欢一样音乐的人,也许发现原来也能学到新知识。或者只是来换个假期放松方式,体验不一样的感觉

Because of shared hobbies, you meet people.
Headphones are an external body organ, and a playlist is a private diary.
When you love a song, you loop it until it gets dark.
Sometimes, you even want to share your headphones with someone who truly understands.
This afternoon has no host, no fixed agenda.
You don’t even need to force conversations about music.
We’ll simply put you and a group of people who listen with a similar taste—or who just love music—into the same room.
You can start with the song you’ve been looping lately,
or talk about the artist, life, melodies, and memories.
Or you can just grab a cup of coffee and hear what others are listening to.
Music is the starting point; the endpoint is getting to know a few people like you.
Maybe you’ll be surprised to find that there are others who like the same kind of music.
Maybe you’ll discover that you can learn something new.
Or maybe you’re just here to relax your holiday in a different way and experience something fresh.
- **Time:** 3 May, 14:00
- **Location:** Venue will be provided after registration
- **Fee:** Free, but please cover your own meal expenses

Pot Luck in the Park!
Inspired by our successful events like "Saturday Mornings @ East Market" and other "Pot Luck in the Park" lunches, this gathering promises to be a blend of fun conversations, language exchange, and cultural insights, all while sharing wonderful foods with each other.
**Please bring a dish to share and anything you would like to drink.**
We will provide plates, plastic silverware and napkins.
So, come hungry and ready to chat!
Saturday Mornings @ East Market
Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating.
Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator.

American Sign Language Beginners Meetup Group
We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able!
Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!

This is a great way to meet new and old friends while chatting about life and practicing English language speaking skills. All are welcome and encouraged to join us anytime between 11am and 1pm. Looking forward to seeing you soon.
Duty vs. Results: What Makes an Action Moral?
When judging morality, should we prioritize **intentions/duty** or **outcomes/results**? It introduces two influential philosophers as representatives of these approaches.
* **Immanuel Kant (deontology):** An action is moral when it is done from **duty** and follows rational, universal principles (the **categorical imperative**). Certain acts—like lying—are wrong regardless of the consequences; you can’t do a wrong thing for a right reason.
* **John Stuart Mill (utilitarian consequentialism):** The morality of an action is determined by its **effects**, specifically how much **happiness/well-being** it produces. Mill argues that some pleasures are “higher” than others, and that good intentions don’t redeem harmful outcomes.
## Discussion Questions
1. **The lying dilemma:** A murderer comes to your door and asks if your friend is hiding inside. Kant would say you must not lie.
2. **Can good intentions rescue a bad outcome?**
3. **The organ harvest problem:** A surgeon has five patients dying of organ failure and one healthy patient in for a checkup. Killing the one to harvest organs would save five lives, and the math works out for the utilitarian. Why does this feel so deeply wrong? Is that feeling a point in Kant's favor, or just a bias we should overcome?
4. **Do rules need exceptions?** Kant insists moral rules must be universal, with no exceptions. But most of us can imagine extreme scenarios where any rule seems like it should bend. Does the need for exceptions fatally undermine deontology, or is the strength of the system precisely that it refuses to bend?
5. **Who gets to calculate the consequences?** Utilitarianism asks us to maximize good outcomes, but we're notoriously bad at predicting consequences. If we can't reliably know the results of our actions, is it practical to base our entire moral system on outcomes? Does this uncertainty push us back toward rules and principles?
6. **Everyday morality:** Think about a real moral decision you've made recently, even a small one. Did you reason more like a Kantian (what's the right thing to do in principle?) or more like a utilitarian (what will produce the best result?)? Do most people naturally lean one way?
7. **Justice vs. the greater good:** A town can prevent a deadly plague by sacrificing one innocent person. The greater good is clearly served. But is it just? Can an action be morally right and deeply unjust at the same time?
8. **The big synthesis question:** Are these two systems actually opposed, or do they often arrive at the same answers by different paths? Is it possible that we need both: rules to guide us in the moment and consequences to evaluate systems and policies over time?
Psychic Development Series II - Pueo Group
Private Group. Closed to the Public
Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy.
In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected.
The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve.
I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
