SUMMARY:SF: Kinky Speed Friending with PsychoKitty
DESCRIPTION:Get tickets exclusively on Plura! \n— \nFeeling social pressure to find someone to connect with? \nWe can’t promise love\, but we can help you with a fun night full of meeting people\, a lot of people\, fast. \nOur purpose is to encourage you to meet new people. \n– Find people with similar kinks as yours. \n– Find people with whom to explore new kinks. \n– Find new friends. \n– Find new people to play with. \n  \nPeople will be separated by appetite\, either top or bottom. (Switches can pick a side or wait to see what side is needed more.) And then you will get two minutes with each person and a chance to connect afterward. \nThe evening is about meeting people who complement your kinky appetite\, not about identity or gender. The people you meet will be worth meeting\, even if they aren’t your appetite. \nOnce the event has started\, we can not add new people\, so please be on time. \nPRESENTER: \nRyan “Psychokitty” has been helping people connect with similar events for over a decade\, from the old Shibaricon in Chicago to Dark Odyssey: Surrender\, or hosting events at the SF Citadel\, Catalyst\, and of course Wicked Grounds. \nACCESS: \nIn SF\, this event will be held at Trellis. Please note that doors will close quickly so we recommend arriving 15 minutes before the event starts for check-in. \nWe cannot admit anyone after about 7:10 (once the event has begun)\, so please plan accordingly! \nPlease do not attend in person if you have any respiratory symptoms whatsoever. Anyone displaying signs of respiratory symptoms may be asked to leave\, regardless of vaccination status.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Mindful Swiping with Marie Thouin\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Mindful Swiping is Dr. Marie Thouin’s transformative framework for using dating apps with intention\, authenticity\, and self-love. \nWhile dating apps aren’t designed for our well-being—they’re gamified to prey on our attention and self-worth—they’re also a powerful tool for sparking new real-life connections. Let’s outsmart the downsides and learn to use this technology with next-level integrity and skill! 😌 \nInstead of getting stuck in the swipe-scroll trap\, we’ll learn how to use the apps as a practice—to cultivate discernment\, inner peace\, creativity\, and loving-kindness\, all while fostering real and meaningful connections with others. \n💫 What You’ll Learn:\nThis is a high-impact\, practical workshop exploring Dr. Marie’s Mindful Swiping framework in depth. You’ll learn how to: \n🕯️Ritualize your Use of the Apps: Set clear goals\, practice digital hygiene\, and create meaningful containers around your dating practice. \n📸 Build an Authentic Profile: Choose photos and write prompts that reflect who you really are—while turning profile creation into a growth experience. \n🧭 Practice Discernment: Strengthen your self-trust when deciding who to match with\, how to message\, and when to walk away. \n💞 Lead with Loving-Kindness: Stay grounded in your values\, treat yourself and others with care\, and transform dating into a path of connection and growth. \nThis isn’t another sleazy “get-them-to-like-you” class 🚫. \nThis is a soulful\, actionable strategy for turning online dating into a practice of self-discovery\, empowerment\, and intimacy 🌱. \n🌈 This virtual workshop is geared towards daters of all genders\, orientations\, ages\, and relationship styles! \nPRESENTER: \nMarie Thouin\, PhD is the author of “What is Compersion? Understanding Positive Empathy in Consensually Non-Monogamous Relationships\,” the first-ever comprehensive scholarly book on compersion. She has been featured in several publications and podcasts\, including ELLE\, the Savage Lovecast\, The Times of London\, and HuffPost. Marie has also published seminal research studies\, the first encyclopedia entry on compersion\, and is the creator of www.WhatIsCompersion.com\, a popular website that features her research\, blogs\, and resources on the topic of compersion. She is the Founder of Love InSight\, a Mindful Dating & Relationship Coaching practice where she supports and guides people of all backgrounds and relational orientations to create intentional and vibrant love lives. \nTICKETING: \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/a443d33e4f

SUMMARY:SF: Kinky Queer Speed Friending/ Dating/ Whatever - FOLSOM EDITION Jumpstart Your Folsom Shenanigans with @GreenMir and @impossiblepain
DESCRIPTION:You know that feeling when you meet a hot queer and you can’t tell if you want to kiss them\, go directly to the U-Haul rental\, or stay up all night talking about a shared interest? Queer relationships can be deliciously fluid\, defying categorization. \nJust in time for Folsom Street Fair 2025\, @GreenMir and @impossiblepain bring you a speed friending/ dating/ whatever for kinky queers who want to meet other kinky queers. We’ll provide a lighthearted\, low-stakes atmosphere with conversation starters in case you find yourself tongue-tied by the beautiful queers before you. You bring an open mind\, adventurous spirit (this can be aspirational)\, and a bottle of water to stay hydrated. At the end of the evening\, drop a note and your contact info into the mailboxes of the cuties you want to connect with\, and see what unfolds! \nQueer\, trans\, and questioning kinksters of all genders and kinky proclivities are welcome. There will be no kinky play at this event — save that for the weekend! \nPRESENTERS: \nMiriam Green is a kink educator and coach with over twenty years’ experience in the public BDSM scene as a participant\, educator\, house top\, party host and former gear-slinger. Mir owns Wicked Grounds\, a kink and sex-positive education business to help playful people find and traverse their kink journeys. Mir is not\, in fact\, an extrovert — but will have you fooled by the end of the night! \nimpossiblepain is an impact switch\, a gleeful sadist\, and an accomplished masochist. They have been playing publicly with consensual violence since 2014. impossiblepain enjoys kink instruction that makes safe\, creative\, and whimsical play feel accessible to anyone. \nTICKETING: \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/7222a9ee68
