Events Women’s 18+ Lacrosse Leagues?

• Upvotes

Anyone know of any local women’s 18+ lacrosse leagues? I’ve applied to Riveters via their CSBOXLA website, emailed them, and messaged them on their official Instagram account, but I haven’t received any solid answer for information on try outs or any scheduled practice/games. I just want to play. At this point I’m happy to just scrimmage for the team to practice against lol.

Events Niche TTRPG Nerd Seeking Same for In-Person Torchbearer Play

7 Upvotes

Processing img l0w2udc5hwwh1...

I am a TTRPG enthusiast without an in-person game at the moment due to scheduling conflicts. Torchbearer 2E has just dropped hard copies of their updated Middarmark setting which compels me to try and find 3 to 5 foolhardy souls to brave the challenges of this grim, dark, and dangerous norse folklore inspired world. I have posted on LGS discords and boards already, but also posting here to cast as wide a net as possible because these games I like are rough for finding interested players.

Torchbearer is the classic adventuring little brother of Burning Wheel. It is very narrative and very crunchy game-y at the same time. It is a survival adventure procedural story game at its heart. Combat is a part of it, of course, but is a less central aspect to play than many other fantasy TTRPGs. You take on the role of a group of outsiders, mistrusted wastrels and vagabonds more than heroes (at the start, at least). You have nothing and so you must brave perilous wilds and cursed tombs to pry what coppers you can from the eyes of the dead before you yourself join them.

If you like engaging with a thick tight mechanical play loop where detailed resource management makes every torch and every ration count, this might be for you. You battle against the environment as much as the blades of your foes, fighting hunger, fear, and disease as well as injury. If you can outlast these pressures you may just succeed in service of your Belief and your Creed and make something of yourself in this harsh land. NOTE - the game is punishing in ways, but is actually much more survivable than many others.

I am looking to average a roughly 3 hour session at least every couple weeks. Torchbearer plays best when you can play it for a while, so the dream would be a solid run of a dozen sessions at least. I am not sure what day we will play yet, we'll see when interested folks are available.

TLDR:help us as a community by showing your support for the South circle drive 55+ mobile home park becoming a tenant union and fighting for tenant rights!
There will be a potluck feel free to bring something!

Colorado residents! I am here to ask a little favor if you could possibly show up to our Saturday event! There will be a pot luck feel to bring something! And hang out!! we are at the S. Circle Dr. 55 mobile home Park are here to declare ourselves as a tenant union and celebrating it
And we need your help to show up as a group to show the new owners of our mobile home park and the city that we have the support of the community!

Every renter has rights and I think it's very important that people know that they have rights cause it's not just the mobile home park. It is renters across the United States being taken advantage of.

So on Saturday, if you could join us and show your support for us as a community!
It would be a big help and it'd be great to show the owners that we're not just a small group of people. We're not just one or two that it's real and happening.

Politics A reason to vote No on 134 + 135 NOBODY's talking about (!)

55 Upvotes

As a kid I was always taught that it is NEVER ok for a grownup to ask to look at your private parts.

If we start having a situation where kids are taught that it’s normal for a grownup in an authority position to look at your genitals, it’s very easy for predators to manipulate children.

For example, say a kid goes to the normal, trusted family doctor for a government mandated visual inspection so they can be authorized to play sports.

Then, the next year they go on a trip with their soccer team and their friend’s dad tells the kid now HE has to do an inspection, too.

A kid wouldn’t realize that they can and should report that.

They wouldn’t know it was inappropriate.

(And regarding the sports doctor who would be carrying out the inspection— Larry Nassar literally did this to the child gymnasts he was supposed to be treating— violating them with his hand under a blanket, often in the middle of a conversation with the parents in the same room.

The parents thought that what he was doing was necessary and important for the health of their kids, when in fact he was just assaulting them. The kids didn’t know that it was assault because they took their cues from the parents, who stayed calm and kept talking to the doctor, thinking what he was doing was normal and necessary).

Predators would be drawn to positions where they could get away with this and have plausible deniability and an endless supply of potential victims.

I’m so disturbed by this thought, and I know this is an uncomfortable subject. But for the sake of kids everywhere, I really think this bill is a bad idea with PROFOUND lifelong consequences for our community.

Even with the caveat that a doctor could be the one performing the inspection, this could lead to devastating consequences for the kids. I wouldn’t want to play at all.

Politics Who the heck is Tracie Woods?

7 Upvotes

I watch this sub pretty closely and don’t remember anyone talking about the County Clerk & Recorder race, so I wanted to bring it up.

The Democratic nominee is Tracie Woods, running against incumbent Steve Schleiker. I tried to find out anything about her and came up basically empty.

  • Her Ballotpedia page has no info about her or her race, and only has her LinkedIn which doesn’t mention it either.
  • I looked her up on the Secretary of State’s campaign finance site (TRACER). The only filing is a candidate affidavit from 4/29/2026. There’s no registered campaign committee and no financial reports, so as far as public records show, she hasn’t raised or spent anything.
  • I couldn’t find a campaign website, policy positions, or any statement about why she’s running.

The affidavit appears to have been filed online, and I couldn’t find anything explaining how identity is verified when that’s done.

Wild theories (I could be totally wrong)

  1. Someone filed in her name as a prank or troll and she has no idea. Probably not, since there’s a sworn affidavit and the nomination process involves real people, but I can’t rule it out from public records.
  2. Something happened to her and nobody updated the profiles.
  3. My money’s on this one: with how much people dislike Republicans right now, someone figured a “D” next to the name is enough to win without campaigning.

Whatever the case, I ended up voting for the only candidate who has actually done the job and put out real policy positions. I’d rather make an informed choice than vote by party letter, and right now I can’t make one about Woods.

If anyone has met her, seen her at an event, or knows how she got on the ballot, please share. If her campaign sees this, now’s a good time to speak up.

Wanted to share for anyone interested in the new UFL team coming to Weidner Field spring 2027.

Priority seat selection went live today for anyone who paid a deposit ahead of time, but you'll also be able to buy season tickets at the launch event on Sunday. Should also be able to buy them online afterwards.

The UFL is just a 10-game season, so these prices are for five home games.

Edit: To be clear, they'll have individual game day tickets closer to the season, too.

Politics Disgruntled Ex-Republican, now Independent… which Ballot Measures am I supporting?

Post image
35 Upvotes

Look, the reality is I’m tired of both sides. But at this point if you’ve been paying attention (and not falling for what your MAGA uncle posts to Facebook as fact), you know that “both sides” are not trying to actively pull our country into a Christian Nationalist takeover.

I attended (and was greatly anticipating) the Ballots and Brews event that happened at Cerberus Brewing last week. I was surprised at the turnout and even more surprised learning about some of these ballot measures.

I’m in Federal contracting and for some reason, I love reading the fine print and commonly missed details. After the event last week, I made it a goal of mine to understand the ballot measures from top to bottom.

Listen, Advance Colorado really is a force of Evil Billionaires. I’m not a public speaker but I actually wish I had a soap box and a microphone right now because the passion to set ourselves straight during this election is spewing out of my pores.

In the comments, I’m gonna post all of the flyers I received from this event. After my personal research, I 100% condone the information I’m sharing below and chose NOT to share anything I did not believe in.

I’m definitely not telling you to take my word for it. In fact, I’m hoping you will actually read the info in the images and the flyers posted and do your own research on the subjects.

(Emphasizing you to look into and FOLLOW THE MONEY regarding Advance Colorado.)

PLEASE UNDERSTAND what you’re voting for. I’m happy to help and answer questions regarding Ballot Matters. While I’m not a huge advocate of using AI, I will say it’s better to use it for your advantage to make sure you can comprehend exactly what each question is needing from you when filling out your ballots.

Please vote accordingly.

Signed,
Disgruntled ex-Republican, Now independent.

Is this more of the same "poisoned candy" urban legend that has never actually happened? And now it's "rainbow fentanyl"? It's sad to see our police spread this kind of fear mongering.

Of course take precautions with anything your kids are eating, but this is kind of nutty.

Crank now states that decisions on data center construction should remain at the local level, rather than being dictated by the federal government, and has says that local entities are the appropriate bodies to manage local data center placement and regulations—BUT when it has been time to vote, he clearly has other priorities.

He changes tunes when he’s voting in DC from when he’s campaigning here at home…

Hi! Milwaukee, WI resident here!

I’ll be in Colorado Springs for games 1-3 this weekend (unfortunate timing), and I’m looking for somewhere other than family’s house to watch a game or two. I did some googling and didn’t find much, so I’m hoping Reddit has some insight on any World Series watch parties happening or breweries/bars that will be playing the games (ideally with volume).

Any help is appreciated, thank you!!

Lost & Found Help!! Wedding ring lost at Vasa on Union (maybe)

15 Upvotes

Husband and I worked out today and he usually wears those silicone rings, but today we were both distracted and he forgot his. This has happened before and he is able to slip it onto his key lanyard and has never had it fall off before(before you comment that he was irresponsible, I’m telling you, it’s NEVER fallen off the thick lanyard before and also he feels terrible enough so no mean comments please). We got home, he worked in the garage for a bit, showered and then realized the ring was gone. We’ve searched everywhere, all over the whole car, garage, yard, our room, laundry, etc…no sign, we called VASA and then even drove over just to check for ourselves and nothing. He was mostly by the squat racks and assisted pull up machine. Then we scoured the parking lot because maybe when he pulled the keys out to unlock the car it slipped off?? Now we’ve checked everything at the house again. And Again. No sign.

This ring isn’t inherently super valuable, it’s really just the sentimental value because his grandpa wore it, then his dad, now him. It’s two toned(gold and silver), with a couple different dates inscribed on the inside. (Intentionally being a little vague about the specifics)

At this point it’s been hours and hours of searching and we’re just not sure what else to do.
Hoping it’ll turn up somewhere silly because we really don’t want to think that someone has just taken it and that it would be lost forever.

TLDR: Looking for two toned wedding band that has a few dates inscribed on the inside. Very sentimental, maybe dropped in the Union VASA parking lot?
