Otherkin

The February meetup will be on Saturday, February 11, 2:00-5:00 PM Pacific Time. Please note that this is a change from our usual scheduled date (which would have been Sunday the 12th).

We hold our online meetups in a Jitsi chat room. The service is similar to Zoom with video and text chat. No account is required. No download is required if you use a web browser; Android and iOS apps are available if desired. Sharing video is not required. Joining the voice chat is also not required, but is recommended as it is where most of the action is.

You don't need to live in the San Francisco Bay area to attend! We welcome visitors, just as we would at physical meetups.

RSVP by commenting on this post or sending me a PM and I will send you the room details and password.

P.S. We are beginning to think about possibly returning to in-person meetups, held outdoors only, in April after Shining Hearth.

The August event for the SF Bay Otherkin Meetup has been cancelled. Our next event will be Saturday, September 8th, probably in Redwood City.

The November meetup has been cancelled. Our December event will be in San Francisco.

The March SF Bay Otherkin meetup has been cancelled. The next meetup is scheduled for Sunday, April 9th.

The SF Bay Otherkin Meetup has been sending out our monthly event announcements through Meetup.com since September 2011. We will be moving to a privately hosted list after the September 10 meetup (to take place in San Jose, CA).

If you are interested in receiving these announcements, please sign up with your email address (no new account creation or "join with Facebook" nonsense required) at http://eristic.net/mailman/listinfo/sfbayotherkin_eristic.net. The meetup general info page is at http://eristic.net/fey/sfbaykinmeetup.php. If you let me know your email address, I can also send you an invitation.

I will continue to also post notifications on the group calendars on WestKin (https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/westkin/info) and Nor_Cal_Otherkin (https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/nor_cal_otherkin/info).

The main driver for this is that Meetup.com costs a minimum of $12 a month, more if paid month-to-month. For a large group with dozens attending every month that would be fine, but for a small group like ours I think that the same function can be gained mainly through regular email.
