24M Looking for both IRL and Gaming Friends
Hey Reddit, o/
I'm Iris (he/him), 24, and work full-time in the coffee industry.
To start I just wanted to say, I'm pretty progressive politically, so depending on your stance we may not be a good fit — but also very open to having discussions about it.
Normally I play a lot of League, but I'm pretty open to all games. I've recently been getting back into multiplayer survival crafting games like Enshrouded and Palworld, and recently wanted to try playing Minecraft again after seeing a mod that caught my eye.
Outside of gaming; music for me is very theatre- and jazz-adjacent, and I love watching a nice film. Books tend to be mostly fantasy, but I've also been obsessively consuming works by Byung-Chul Han as of late.
I'd be looking to make friends both to play games with, but also to maybe go to a nice restaurant or bar with. Oh, and maybe friends for the Proshot Hadestown coming out October 13! (You don't have to do it all.)
I love talking and meeting new people, so feel free to send me a message. One thing that resonated with me a lot was a content creator Glass Museum describing small talk as surfing, that there's a flow to talking to people and getting to know them.
P.S. If you want me to chat your ear off, tell me your go-to coffee (or cafe) order, and watch me go on a spiel about the different ways you can brew and roast coffee — and how tea is just as deep a rabbit hole to dive into.
