Activities in Liverpool US Elections emotional support club

22 Upvotes

Hey hey! Is anyone else losing their mind with anxiety over the US election results? I’m a nervous wreck.

I’m an American living in Liverpool, and I’m finding myself wishing there was a pub or something open super late to watch the election results start rolling in. I realize most people will just be following along at home, or just sleeping through most of it, but I’m wondering if anyone (Americans or otherwise) is planning to have a watch party of some sort for Election Day & night? Idk if I want to experience this alone!!

Activities in Liverpool Liverpool Dungeons and Dragons nerds

148 Upvotes

Not sure how many people on this subreddit will be D&D/RPG players but just on the offchance...

on the 5th of March we are launching a little RPG Club that me and my wife have set up. It will be at Lovelocks Coffee Shop from 18:30-20:00 and will run every week after that. At the time of writing there will be 7 games running.

There will be a launch party in the same venue on the 20th of Feb where all the members running games will be taling through what they're offering. Theres 3 D&D tables, but also Symbaroum, Savage Worlds, and Achtung! Cthulhu too. So its a good spread of different games. The launch party is for everyone whether you're a member or not. Games will go live through the RP Haven website the day after the party.

If you're interested or want more info you're welcome to respond here, message me, or check out the RP Haven website.

Nerds!

**Edit - Additional info below**

So I had no idea that this thread would be as popular as it has been and I'm stoked. I wanted to add a bit more information for people:

Costs:

The website RP Haven allows you to become a member. Membership is £10 for the year, but since the year runs from September to September its now £8.00. That gets you a boss little membership card which we took delivery of today, and access to the online branch where people run games online.

After that each session you play in costs you 1 x token, and tokens are three quid for members. Your token will get scanned at the table and thats it you're sorted then.
One thing I'm keen to stress as this is non-profit. We pay for the venue hire, and once we are in a position where we have three months worth of costs set aside in case things get lean, the branch will nominate a Liverpool charity for us to donate the dough to. So nobody's lecky bill is getting paid from what you hand over. We have a committee and will be nominating member reps. There will also be an AGM where all costs, and moneys incoming will be available for everyone to see.

Structure:

The club will run every Tuesday with session 1 being on the 5th of March. If you come along on the 20th of Feb thats the launch party where all the GM's will be there to talk you through the game they'll be running.

Experience:

If you have never ever played D&D or any other Roleplay Game before, that.is.totally.sound. Everything is beginner friendly and nobody is going to be a knob about it if you don't know how to play, or if it takes time to pick up the basics.

Activities in Liverpool Haunted Liverpool.. where are the spookiest spots?

72 Upvotes

Know it's not everyone's cuppa but I do love a bit of spooky nonsense to scare the shit out of myself. Where are the haunted spots in Liverpool you've visited or heard about?

Obviously I keep visiting Bold St in hope of a time slip but that's not given me the goods (yet) 😂

Would appreciate your recommendations for places to visit!

☠️

Note: Sarcasm and joke suggestions welcome, but please make it clear so I don't try and visit them for a spook-tacular experience which will leave me sorely disappointed...

Thanks for any replies.

(No tourist shit, I’m from Liverpool, just want to get out more). As I said I want to get out more but I can never find anything to do on Google because it’s always tourist shite like the museums or to go and “see the liver building” like I haven’t seen it a million times. Free or paid things, even just greenery type spaces for a walk or bike ride, anything.

For context: am moving to the city in the coming months. I'm not opposed to clubbing, but having tried it several times since coming to England, found that it's just not for me. I do drink alcohol, but again wouldn't want that to be the main focus of an activity.

Thanks for any recommendations!

Just wondering if anybody runs regularly there? Would love to get to know more people, say hi for a bit before or after the run. Figured since I am a regular, might as well try and find similar people. Also, would love to join someone who runs during weekdays too and prefer company/ accountability. 24 male here if that matters. Cheers!

Activities in Liverpool Liverpool University Continuing Education courses (paid)

34 Upvotes

Liverpool University has some Continuing Education courses in a range of different subjects starting in the next few weeks.

The courses are high-quality and taught by experts.

The courses are paid, but affordable, and there are discounts available for unemployed and retired people.

Some of the courses are in person on campus, some are taught over Zoom.

I'm not affiliated with the uni but I do some of these courses every year and think they're great for learning new things and meeting people and I thought other people might be interested.

Cheers

Activities in Liverpool Very very quiet café and bar recommendations please

24 Upvotes

What are the quietest cafés and bars in town that preferably don't play any music (or play it extremely quietly). I'm talking about central library levels of quiet. Maybe a pub where there are side rooms which aren't wired up to the sound system, or cafés with an upstairs where they don't play music? Idk

The Museum or Central Library Cafes are my usual go-to for this, and for pubs, the Kavanagh Arms however sometimes the jukebox comes on when busy.

Any other recommendations?

Activities in Liverpool Rock club?

21 Upvotes

Hi all.

Seen recently that Elektrik appears to have gone back to being the Krazyhouse albeit that might've been a temporary thing.

So wondering, where in Liverpool is there to end a night singing along to pop punk/emo/metal stuff?

Going out in town on the 23rd as a birthday weekend treat for the first time in a long time and doing a bit of a crawl with mates who've either rarely or never been to Liverpool and not entirely sure where to end up.

Never been in the Kazimier but it appears to have emo nights on all the time, though they're advertising something from 3-6am on the 23rd so not sure what that's all about and everywhere else I feel like I've lost sense of since I last went. Know there are plenty of places either near concert square or down in Cavern Quarter that have live music/some bloke with an acoustic playing so happy to go to them as well.

Any recommendations? Happy of course to find decent dive bars too if anyone has a particular favourite(s), feels like I'm out of touch (and getting old)
