  1. Hello! I was wondering if any parents and parents-to-be were interested in meeting up to discuss the practical application side of peaceful parenting. I live in the Denver/Castle Rock area in Colorado.
  2. I made a test AltspaceVR (http://AltVr.com) event if anyone wants to join. It's Saturday at 12:00 AM EDT for an hour. https://account.altvr.com/events/993408138260513377 The idea is to help FDR folks to become familiar with the AltspaceVR tools and get the kinks out before scheduling more regular events. It will probably be mostly people from the unofficial FDR Members chat on Discord, but folks here are welcome of course. There is a 2D mode so people with traditional non-VR setups can join and most VR headset technologies are compatible; as are phone based VR solutions. I'll be notified of replies here, but I should be available to answer any questions in the #tech-talk section of the FDR Members Discord chat (https://discord.gg/2CQ2AK8) if one is interested in a more timely reply. Hope to meet you there! Bleak Morn
  3. The vegan hippie central of the South West! To all of you who concern yourselves with topics more taxing on the brain than "ethical treatment of snails" or "how people just don't get alternative music" please feel more than welcome to get in touch with me and we'll see what time suits us. My working hours are very flexible, so I'll be free pretty much whenever with a week's advance, if that. See you soon.
  4. Are there any FDR listeners in the greater charlotte area who would like to meet up?
  5. I made a new group on Facebook for any philosophers or around Orange County. https://www.facebook.com/groups/785068861547541/ I don't mind driving all over Southern California to meet you, either! Please join! I'm planning the first next Tuesday night (8 pm on Jan. 20) in Costa Mesa. Salute! Andrew
  6. Hello! My name is Tim and I am a listener of freedomain radio since about 3 years. I have made some huge changes in my life because of this show and I experience a great deal of happiness every day because of it. Now I find myself kind of "bursted out on the other side" but fairly lonely here since practically no one dares to follow. I have an absolutely fantastic and truly brave girlfriend since a few months back who I share everything with and we are both committed to creating the best and most honest relationship in the world. Now I think it is time for me to find some like minded friends and build some real friendships. If any of you live or spend time somewhere in Sweden, Skåne I would love to meet up! And even if you don´t live around here but are just interested in a digital friendship I would be very glad for that to. Best wishes, Tim
  7. Noticed the old Montana thread was closed, just as I wanted to post! Lets get a regular meet up going. PM me if this thread gets archived, i love to connect with local freedom loving Montanans. Also check out http://www.freemt.org/move-to-mt---faq.html they are like the FSP, without the "State" part .
  8. If you happen to live in Southern Missouri, Northern Arkansas, NE Oklahoma or SE Kansas and you would like to meet other FDR members please join our Facebook group to keep track of future events. If you don't have a Facebook account you can PM me and I'll make sure to notify you before every meetup. https://www.facebook.com/groups/365176386966594/ We usually meet in Springfield MO once a month. For more information and pictures from our past meetups please visit the link below: http://freedomainradiomeetup.weebly.com/recent-meetups/category/ozark
  9. Are there many FDR listeners here in Auckland? I have moved to the city recently. It would be great to meet some like minds in this city.
  10. [Due to the discontinued Meetup Everywhere platform, this article has been updated. - Feb. 5, 2015] Tips for Starting & Organizing FDR Meetups If you're one of the members of the FDR community who are interested in meeting fellow philosophers in the area in which you live, you may be wondering where to find each other. Up until December 1, 2014, the place to begin checking was on the site at http://www.meetup.com/freedomain-radio; however, since then, the Meetup Everywhere platform was discontinued by Meetup.com. Since then, if you're looking to find and meet FDR members who reside within a geographical area close enough to meet face-to-face, take time to check for FDR Meetup groups in your area. Try searching on the Meet n Greet Section of the forum here on the FDR Board, Meetup, or Facebook. In the meantime, if you don't find a group already out there and are interested in starting one, here are some suggestions to help in starting and organizing an FDR Meetup group: Momentum is key when starting your Meetup group. New members are just as enthusiastic and excited as you are about meeting others. Make sure you've got a Meetup scheduled. Take the initiative to schedule a definitive date, time, and location for the Meetup. Though posting the "does anyone want to meet" type of comments can establish interest should someone respond, results show that these types of posts can linger for weeks, or even months, before a Meetup gets planned, if at all. Choose and post a date and location; if someone is interested in meeting, they can choose to make the commitment to attend or not. Follow-through with your own commitment to attend an event you've scheduled. If nobody else RSVP's, be there anyway, even if only for an hour. It does happen that people attend without ever RSVP'ing. For first-time Meetups, choose a suitable venue. When people are meeting for the first time and getting to know one another, choose a venue where people can easily converse and hear one another, without distracting noise in the vicinity. Conversations should be able to be had without having to shout over loud music or bowling pins. Also, in the beginning, choose a venue where people can easily leave when they're ready (unlike a hike and they're in the middle of the woods). Include info about the venue; address, link to the venue's web site, anything that will help attendees to foresee the setting and become familiar with where it's being held. If the venue is in a metro area, provide info about the parking and/or transportation options (nearest and cheapest parking garage, nearest train station, cost and availability of street parking, etc.). People will come in by car, train, bike, and most recently, even by plane (which is awesome!). Include an explanation in the description stating the specific goal or activity for the scheduled Meetup (meeting for coffee or a meal, hiking, etc.). This helps people know what they need to bring (money/credit card, comfortable shoes for walking, water, etc.). If it's an outdoor event, include rain/shine instructions. Promote the Meetup using social media such as posting in the Meet 'n Greet section of the FDR forum, create a group on facebook, establish an account for your group on Meetup.com, etc. Reach out individually to the people who are already members of FDR in your area by searching on the FDR forum. Do a search on the FDR forum for your city and/or state in both the Forums and Members drop-downs and contact those you find via PM (private message). In your message, introduce yourself and let them know you have a Meetup planned and where to find out more about it. If having the Meetup at a venue with a host/hostess, let them know you are expecting the arrival of others who may ask about a Meetup. If possible, seat yourself where you can see the entryway, so that way you can watch for people as they arrive and who may be inquiring about a Meetup and/or are clearly looking for the group. Place an item on the table or in the vicinity or on your person that can help identify the Meetup. Of course, after the group has met several times and everyone knows each other, this wouldn't be necessary; however, keep in mind that new people may attend that have not RSVP'd and will be looking for the group. Use a table card or put a label on your shirt with the Meetup or FDR logo on it, stand up a copy of the RTR or UPB book on the table, or whatever method you feel would be most effective for the venue in which you're meeting. Some may be comfortable with posting and exchanging their contact information on a group's site; however, keep in mind that if a group's site is set to public that the information posted is viewable by the public. With that in mind, if you wish to keep your contact information private, consider another means of communication to exchange information. Consider taking a group photo during the Meetup. This should be determined by the organizer as to whether it would be appropriate for the group. If it is, consider sharing the photo on the group's facebook page or other social media, but be certain that you have everyone's permission to post it online before doing so. Photos give a reality to the group; one that tells others, we're real, we're getting together, and we welcome you to join us. After the Meetup, leave feedback on the social media where you promoted it, to let others know the Meetup was held and people attended. This helps to confirm to others that the Meetup actually took place and the group is active. Schedule the next Meetup and keep the momentum going. It gives potential members a very compelling reason to join by showing there's activity and it gives current members something cool to look forward to! For those of you who decide to take an active role as an FDR Meetup Organizer, there is a Freedomain Radio Meetup Organizers group on facebook and we welcome your participation. The goal of the group is to provide a forum for those who are active in organizing Freedomain Radio Meetups and to help each other as we develop and promote FDR Meetups in our local communities.

  14. If you read the post, like the idea, live near Richmond VA, but don't have a forum account, feel free to reach out to me via Facebook! I'd like to hear your feedback and ideas. Hello, folks! I'm greatly interested in starting a Freedomain Radio / Philosophy meetup group. I've already worked to advertise and manage an online Skype group called the "Young Philosophers" for teens and twenty-somethings of the FDR community to connect with like minded individuals around the world. I've greatly enjoyed the experiences, conversations, and relationships I've fostered and maintained there for almost a year now, but I'd love to expand that into physical reality. If you're a curious, empathetic, and intelligent lover of ideas and seek genuine connection as I do, I want to facilitate that. Today I ask if you live within driving distance of the Richmond tri-cities area, would you like to help me start a Freedomain Radio / Philosophy meetup group? I'm 20 years old, and have a friend who is turning 21 soon who expressed that he'd be interested too if there's support for the idea! I invite men and women of all ages to participate - it'd be an awesome opportunity to connect and network regardless of age differences, offering and reciprocating value for value! Please do let me know if this is of interest to you! I'd be willing to expend the time, planning, and resources necessary to make it a reality. I look forward to your responses, Nick

  18. So, I've decided to create a peaceful parenting meetup group. I've been a member of a few groups in the past, but they included all types of parenting styles and I never quite connected with anyone. Most of the women were stay-at-home moms and they all seemed like great parents, but I wanted to create a group focused on peaceful parenting strategies. I wanted to ask you all what you think of my description of the group. Is there anything I should add or subtract? Also, do you have any suggestions for a link to provide at the end? This is a group for parents who are dedicated to using gentle discipline with their children. A peaceful parent does not use coercive parenting methods such as spanking, yelling, humiliation, or domination. A peaceful parent focuses on bonding with her child, validating her child’s feelings, and using age-appropriate reasoning to negotiation win-win solutions. She thinks about what type of person she wants her child to become and acts as the model. A peacefully parented child may not always be convenient for the parent, for she is learning to reason, question authority and advocate for herself, behaviors that a majority of parents want for their children in adulthood, but often fail to practice with them in childhood. Peaceful parenting does not mean: Never setting boundaries, letting the child make all of the decisions, never getting angry as a parent, never letting your child experience anger or frustration. To learn more about peaceful parenting and find out if this group is for you, please visit: FYI, If any of you are from St. Louis, MO, I would love for you to join the group. I added "lies" to the list of what a peaceful parent does not use.
  19. With the Philosophy Europe Convention - Prague 2015 on September 12th and 13th we want try something new: We will offer you a seed crystal where your energies and passions for philosophy can do a gravitational slingshot maneuver and charge full speed ahead (with "we", the FDR fans organizing the convention are meant). The event will offer you all the qualities of a large FDR meetup with some conference-like aspects. We organized a large room where everyone is invited to hold a presentation. The organization and program of the convention are "open-source", anyone can organize a group activity, prepare a presentation etc. The Philosophy Europe Convention - will be a place where you can connect first hand with the people whose posts you digitally liked and commented in the FDR forums and groups. A place where you encounter other FDR listeners and for once you are not the one with the outlier ideas and philosophy. The roots of the FDR community are tied to the emergence of the internet but there are some good arguments to sometimes return to the archaic, millennia old custom of convening, talking and dining together. It will assure your subconscious mind in powerful way that the FDR community lives in the real world in the minds of 3D people, not just on 2D screens. We like to invite all FDR listeners may they live in Europe, America, Asia or elsewhere to come and share their thoughts and passions. Get updates and more Information by RSVP'ing on the Facebook event page: https://www.facebook.com/events/848338805251127/ We would very much appreciate your support of this event. We are open to all ideas. Some workshops and presentations from other participants are already in preparation. If you have a project you are working on, or a concept you would like to talk about, let us know. We need your help! Thank you. If you have any questions just write it on the wall of the event or directly below this post and we are going to answer it. Just to be clear, a visit by Stefan is not part of the convention. The Philosophy Europe Convention is organised by fans of FDR.
