Lesbian BSL Club
**What this is**
A lot of women have said they want a space where they can actually meet and communicate properly, so this is a simple BSL social.
It’s a group of women meeting at the bar, practising British Sign Language, chatting properly, and spending a couple of hours together.
Most women come on their own. That’s completely normal here and we make sure you don’t feel it.
Women usually range from their 20s through to their 60s. It’s normally a mix of new and returning women, so you won’t be the only new person there.
If you’re feeling nervous, that’s very common. You can message beforehand or on the day and we can help you settle in.
[www.thelcommunity.com/bsl-club/](https://thelcommunity.com/bsl-club/)
**Where to find us**
BFI Bar
London
**What to expect**
Some women already know some BSL, others are completely new. The setup makes it easy to actually practise and communicate rather than just sit and watch.
You can go at your own pace and join in as much or as little as you want.
**Important**
This is a female-only lesbian space. That boundary is clear and upheld at events.
**How to attend**
You must register in advance to attend

Build Your AI Docs Strategy: Gaps, Playbooks and Automation
**AI is becoming part of many documentation workflows, but how do you turn that into a clear, repeatable strategy?**
At this month’s meetup, we’ll focus on how to build an AI docs strategy by identifying gaps in your current approach, creating practical playbooks, and using automation to support consistent, scalable documentation.
In this session, [Maddy Onyehara](https://www.linkedin.com/in/maddalena-o-bb2372020) (Technical Writer, Cloudflare), [Jun Lee](https://www.linkedin.com/in/junlee98?utm_source=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=member_ios) (Senior Technical Writer, Cloudflare), and [Anita Achu](https://www.linkedin.com/in/anita-achu?utm_source=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=member_ios) (Technical Writer, Upsun) will walk through how to approach AI in documentation in a structured way. This includes spotting where current workflows fall short, designing playbooks teams can rely on, and introducing automation that improves quality without adding unnecessary complexity.

Drunken Philosophy: What’s up with all the AI hate?
**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion
**Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?**
A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad.
My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one.
Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it?
I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction.
Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends.
No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.
