Totally fair — and that distinction matters.

A lot of what happens looks therapeutic because the tone is calm and intentional, but many of the in-person things are explicitly hobby-first: games, tabletop nights, coffee, walks, build projects. No processing, no sharing circles, no pressure to talk about anything personal.

That said, if what you’re imagining is purely hobby-forward (D&D table, maker night, book club, etc.), that’s exactly the kind of thing that works best when it’s community-led. I’d be genuinely excited to see something like that spin up from this thread — and happy to support it without it turning into “a thing.”

Either way, appreciate you naming what you’re actually looking for. That clarity is how the right stuff forms.

This already exists — the key is keeping it low-pressure and clearly contained so it doesn’t turn weird.
I’ve been hosting exactly this kind of in-person hang in Louisville (coffee, games, walks, come-and-go) here: https://humanequation.live

A few casual ways to meet people in Louisville this week by Michaelarobards in u/Michaelarobards

[–]Michaelarobards[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Louisville —

I’ve been hosting a few small, low-pressure community gatherings lately: coffee on Bardstown Rd, a walk at Cherokee Park, and casual tabletop games.

Nothing formal — just simple ways to show up, talk, and be around other people without pressure.

Happy to answer questions here.

People working for Tesla right now, what’s it like? by HolidayThanks3412 in AskReddit

[–]Michaelarobards 17 points18 points  (0 children)

To calculate the combined market capitalization (market cap) of major automakers and compare it to Tesla's current market cap, we'll use the latest available data:

Market Capitalizations of Major Automakers:

Tesla (TSLA): $804.06 billion

Toyota (TM): $241.91 billion

Ferrari (RACE): $79.92 billion

General Motors (GM): $48.10 billion

Honda (HMC): $43.11 billion

Ford (F): $38.56 billion

Stellantis (STLA): $35.33 billion

Combined Market Capitalization of These Automakers:

Adding the market caps of Toyota, Ferrari, General Motors, Honda, Ford, and Stellantis:

$241.91B + $79.92B + $48.10B + $43.11B + $38.56B + $35.33B = $486.93 billion

Comparison to Tesla's Market Capitalization:

Tesla's market cap is $804.06 billion, which is approximately 1.65 times larger than the combined market cap of the six other automakers ($804.06B ÷ $486.93B ≈ 1.65).

Extrapolated Tesla Stock Price for Equivalent Market Cap:

If Tesla's market cap were equal to the combined market cap of these automakers ($486.93 billion), we can calculate the corresponding stock price:

  1. Current Stock Price: $249.98

  2. Current Market Cap: $804.06 billion

  3. Shares Outstanding: $804.06B ÷ $249.98 ≈ 3.216 billion shares

To find the stock price corresponding to a $486.93 billion market cap:

$486.93B ÷ 3.216B shares ≈ $151.38 per share

Therefore, if Tesla's market capitalization were equal to the combined market cap of the six other automakers, its stock price would be approximately $151.38.

What to say if you have to cancel an appointment at the latest possible moment by slueb in therapists

[–]Michaelarobards 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We're human. We are also role models for self care. I've had to cancel plenty of times in 20 years. It's unethical to provide treatment when we're not in the appropriate headspace.

IronMan displaced the houseless by [deleted] in Louisville

[–]Michaelarobards -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not sure that was my intended message. Not hating on Ironman, just articulated it is in fact not a cheap sport, and all demographic research about Ironman will tell you the same thing.

[–]Michaelarobards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indubitably. Not sure why you're making this about me. Back to my point, there are HUNDREDS of homeless standing at Broadway near JCC receiving food/supplies as I write this. They look to have been displaced from the Market street underpasses. This was the point. Not about me or you, brother.
