MeFi IRL

Role call! Will any Mefites be attending the True/False Film Festival in Columbia, MO next week? There are tons of great films this year (as there are every year), but perhaps we can find a time to check in!

Any other Mefites on the JoCo Cruise next month? I've submitted a Shadow Cruise event for a MeFi meetup on Monday of the cruise to say hi and put names to faces. Details for the meetup, including specific location, will be in the schedule once that's a thing.

[COVID-19 delay/ reset] Let's do brunch! Parties present at the last meetup agreed* that we should return to The Range in Bernalillo, 10 AM on Saturday, March 21. Let's wait a bit and see how New Mexico fares for the next few weeks. Maybe try again in May? [more inside]

Let’s show the warm, embracing Metafilter community (particularly those in Somerville MA) that the only trivia that is Trivia is right here in City. Jet. Emerald. [more inside]

We're winning and we won't stop now, whoa-oh, we've got to keep on triviaing Wednesday night at Orleans.

First Wednesday will shortly be upon us. Less than a fortnight. You should prepare. And join us at Carol's Pub, sometime after 5:00pm for $5 dollar burgers, $5 dollar craft beers and at least 5 friendly faxes. foxes. faces. Many of us will be in for the long haul and stay through karaoke (which starts at 9:00 pm). Others will not. You choose your own adventure.

Let's go to Dumpling Galaxy! Postponed; future date TBD.

Attention New Orleans-area Mefites! The Empress' 50th Birthday falls on Mardi Gras this year, and I am making an Imperial Tour to your city. Let me know if you'd like to meet (informally or separately, perhaps). [more inside]

Let’s follow up on the very enjoyable victory of last week, where the admixture of non-regulars (non-Metafilterians, even!) was essential to our success.

Free fries* for everybody this Wednesday at Orleans trivia night.

*pounds on table* Raclette! Raclette! Hey DC MeFi, we're one month into 2020! Let's toast the new year over some hot melted cheese. That's right, we're hiking our way out to the Swiss Alps --that is, to Stable in DC's H St corridor for Raclette Thursday. [more inside]

Time marches onwards... It's the usual drill. Your portable craft, coffee and chat. All crafts (or even none) welcome. [more inside]

Screw it--Carol's has a really great $5 burger and craft beer specials on Wednesday. AND then Popup Karaoke starts later in the evening. Join us! Or don't. It's up to you, but we're charming, really. [more inside]
