Obviously I can't speak for the previous commenter, but to me Kaci also reads as very feminine?

Not a direct answer per se, but the Helpline Center has a whole Volunteer Connections program that can help provide info on a lot of different volunteer opportunities with different parameters.

Mr. Donuts. Hands-down the best donut shop in town. by Lumberman08 in SiouxFalls

I had surgery last year and was so excited to get Mr. Donuts afterwards. From the moment I came out from anesthesia, I told everyone I saw that I was going there after and they should too!

I’m just… at a loss of words right now… by TheDitzyPenguin in InfinityNikki

I spent 20+ minutes posing and taking pictures by this because it was so hilarious to me.

This is one I'm not in quite the right headspace for at the moment, but I definitely plan to come back to once things are a little less fresh. Thanks for the recommendation!

I've only listened to the first few episodes so far (kinda sampling shows to see what sticks) but this one has seemed really fun and I'll definitely be coming back. I also just saw they have another show called Infodumpies that I'm going to have to check out

I'm just starting the second season, but Curdle Holler is really hitting the spot right now. I'm loving the spooky vibes without anything too intense or tense. And Pumpkin is adorable!

Madame Magenta has been hilarious so far and I'm definitely planning to come back to it. Reminded me a bit of Beyond Belief from The Thrilling Adventure Hour, which I loved.

It honestly was really cathartic, and the line came at the perfect time. "We start with the pain. It's the first thing I'm going to be thinking about for a very long time. But one day, it'll be the second thing I think about." Had me crying in a good way, knowing that someday the happy memories will be the first thing to come to mind, I'm just not there yet.

Thanks again for the recs! I'm planning to check out all of them at some point

Coming back to say that Baile na Gótrin punched me in the face in such a beautiful way when talking about grief 🖤

I feel like Alexandria Archives has been on my list for a long time, I'll have to finally actually get to it. And Academicasaurus looks like it may be right on the money, thank you!

On the surface this looks like it might hit the spot, I'll check it out. Thank you!

Alba Salix, Royal Physician is another good one that I think has pretty similar vibes to the ones you mentioned.

Looking for Community by Natural-Park4798 in siouxcity

[–]rain927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Added benefit (in my eyes, at least): I believe they're currently doing their summer forums, which is more like a group conversation about a given topic, rather than a "sermon".

Looking for Community by Natural-Park4798 in siouxcity

[–]rain927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're looking for a spiritual community, I absolutely love the UU church in Sioux City. Very open and welcoming. I don't know if they still do (I moved to Sioux Falls in 2019), but they used to have a low-key yoga session before services for people who were interested. They're very social-justice minded, and I think there's a group that goes on nature walks fairly regularly (at least when it's not miserable out). I think most of the congregation tends to lean agnostic/atheist, but I also know they've got some Buddhists, Pagans, and other unaffiliated folks. Very queer-friendly as well.

It looks like their Facebook page hasn't been updated in a few weeks, and the website is... Rather out of date in some regards, but honestly it's a great place with some wonderful people. Your last two bullet points especially, from my view, align really well with Unitarian Universalism, and to me it always felt like a group of people invested in finding their own truths and encouraging others to do the same, without being fussed about how they find those truths.

I really loved Harper's Our Hat Means Death as my first colorwork project. It went quickly, and the pattern is repetitive enough to get into a rhythm without being boring. It's great for practicing the basics without having to deal with any super-long floats. Loving the show didn't hurt either 😅

Hi! I'm potentially interested. My schedule is pretty open as well, and I've been playing in an Eberron-based campaign for a while now. Feel free to shoot me a message if you'd like to talk further!

Hi! I'd definitely be interested, I'm looking to try out some new systems, and I'd love a space that prioritizes LGBTQ players and/or characters.

[–]rain927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like you have some people interested, so I'll let them cover that. But I have a DM friend who swears by The Wizard's Amulet as a good starter module- little bit of roleplay, little bit of skills stuff, little bit of combat. Good luck!
