Upstate SC Community Project - who we are and why you should join

11 Upvotes

upstatesc.org

Upstate SC Community Project is a discord that is focused on being a digital third space. Third spaces, traditionally churches, community spaces, bars/taverns, etc are great places to meet people in an unassuming environment but have become less common since the advent of the internet.

We have daily conversation and frequent meetings. People have met lifelong friends, gotten job connections, advice about moving and all sorts of other benefits. We hope to embody the idea of community and togetherness with a purpose by uplifting each other.

We would love to meet all of you. Here's a link straight to the discord invite if you don't want to go through our website:

Trivia Night Options Near Anderson?

3 Upvotes

Hi! I would like to find some weekly/monthly trivia night options near me (western part of Anderson, SC) to meet some new people and get out of the house.

I am open to trivia in Anderson and neighboring areas (preferably within ~30min drive or less, so Greenville is a bit too far but Clemson and Pendleton would be in that range).

Please share any recommendations or experiences! I would love as many details as possible: especially day/time, typical vibe of attendees (e.g., age group, family/children attendance), whether dog-friendly location, how crowded/popular, etc.

Finding Events in the Upstate

Thumbnail busybeeboard.com
2 Upvotes

Isn’t it annoying and aggravating when you find out about local events AFTER they happen?  That seems to happen all the time now.  The giant social media algorithms are stacked against us.  Do you remember when we could look at a local newspaper and look to see what’s happening on a particular night?  Maybe I’m showing my age here.. Try using [insert social media giant here] events app to find actual local events this weekend – it’s MADDENING.  Wouldn’t it be nice if you could use an app that shows anything from DIY punk shows to local church bake sales – ANYTHING (legal) – in a given timeframe for a given place?   I always wanted to address this, and so I took a stab at it.  There’s a new website that aggregates local events by date, location, and category and lets you filter how you want.  Right now, it’s only active for the upstate of South Carolina – theoretically, this could work anywhere.   Best of all, it’s FREE.  Seriously.   You can browse events on the site for free any time.   You don’t need to create an account or log in to browse for events.  AND you can post events for free if you create an account – up to three per month.  So, check it out!    Get BUSY!!

I bring my dog absolutely everywhere and she used to get socialized with dogs and people in daycare but now she can’t I’d really love places and ways to meet new dogs/ people for both of us. We live in Anderson but are willing to drive a ways for a really good spot. The dog park over here is dead and most of the people that go have elderly dogs and my dogs energetic and wants to play
We also love cars and Nintendo thank you

Greenville SC coven?

13 Upvotes

43m, gay, happily partnered, eclectic Pagan, lover of tarot & crystals, student of the occult, horror fan, avid watcher of paranormal shows. I was a participant in Earth Spirit public circle until Covid. After that, the group seems to have disbanded, and there is no trace of them at GUUF.

Being that we are in the bible belt, Pagans dont often advertise themselves. Im having real trouble finding my tribe. Is there anyone out there?
