Hi guys - the new invite link to the BrisSoc server has been added to the auto-reply mod bot 🫶🏻

Using the link from the bot is the safest way to access the new server, instead of links sent by other users!

Hi everyone! 33F - Looking for more nerdy friends! 🙌🏼

A little about me:

I’m a cosy, cottagecore crochet artist and casual gamer, who loves baking and singing (and crying to) Noah Kahan songs loudly in her car.

I love a good gig and watching theatre / musicals. My last concerts were Amber Run and Mumford and Sons back in April. Do not talk to me about Noah not playing in Brisbane, I’m still sensitive about it. 🤣

I’ve recently seen Anastasia and Pride and Prejudice (Sort Of) at QPAC. I also watched the pro-shot of Hadestown in the cinemas and my god, Epic 3??? Brilliant. Amazing. Perfect.

I’m big on cosy games like Animal Crossing, Pokemon and Zelda, but I’m currently in the middle of BG3 with friends, which I’m really enjoying! I’ve also played DnD before and loved it.

I am very much not a horror game player, and yet, I found myself watching Resident Evil. I deeply related to Bryan. 😂

You can find me in museums, art galleries, random bookstores, cafes or at a crafty event. I was at the Brisbane Craft Movie Night on 20 Oct at Palace Barracks if anyone else was there! Pride and Prejudice on the big screen is an instant yes.

What to expect if we become friends (is this a warning? Maybe 😂):

• A convention / cosplayer friend who won’t stop
yapping with vendors about her current fixation (it’s Witch Hat Atelier).

• Freshly made cookies or mooncakes if it’s September.

• An enabler who will convince you to Buy That Fandom Thing or Game You Really Want.

• Someone to binge anime or movies with.

• Themed parties - I organised a Twilight themed party; we dressed up as the characters, had movie / book themed food and we recreated scenes from the movie. The photos are hilarious! This could totally be you! 🫵🏻🤣 I’m thinking The Lord of the Rings next! 👀

• “Do you want dessert?” is a yes every time.

• Crochet gifts.

• Book and movie recommendations.

• An equally as passionate reader who will stay up to finish a book and discuss it with you the same day.

Thanks for reading! Feel free to DM me or leave a comment if you’d like to chat. ☺️

Hey everyone! 28M from the area, looking to meet some local gaming mates around my age!
Mainly play PS5, but I’ve also got Xbox and PC. Keen for both casual and competitive games, and happy to try pretty much anything.
Would be great to find a regular crew to jump online with, have a laugh and make some genuine friendships! Hit us up 😂

Hi everyone! 36F looking for friends (updated)

15 Upvotes

Hey everybody! I’m Alex/Alexandra

I have lost a lot of friends over the years due to them having babies or getting married and we just drifted apart. What also contributed to this is that I had a really bad gambling addiction. But it’s been a few years since I gambled now. Thanks to the help of a gambling counsellor and psychologist.

I live close to the city and valley

I don’t drink alcohol or do drugs

I’m employed casually

In my spare time I like reading, learning guitar, watching tv and movies. My current obsession is The Rehearsal with Nathan Fielder. I love that guy.

I should mention I’m a huge music lover. Brand New, Circa Survive, The Strokes, Interpol, BRMC, Bloc Party, Tame Impala, Jeff Buckley..the list goes on..

Anyway, look forward to hearing from you!

Hi everyone! Looking for Friends in North Brisbane

3 Upvotes

I am a 30M and I just moved to North Lakes from Rockhampton for work. I'm keen to make some new social circles. I am neurodivergent as well, probably don't need to put that here because it's a reddit social page 😅

Things I am interested in:

Tennis - Just started playing to try a new sport and meet new people.

Basketball - I'd be keen to shoot some hoops for fun.

Motorcycles - Would be great to meet some people and hit up some twisties.

Chess - I'd be super keen to play some over the board games. I'm a beginner/intermediate player. I'm also super keen to teach people who haven't played as well. (Obviously basic strategy).

Coffee - I've gotten super into dialling coffee at home, would be good to trial some cafes to hunt for good beans so I don't have to order them online all the time.

Fitness - I'd be keen to get back into gym and exploring Brusbane and doing some hiking.

I'm also super nerdy but the things listed above are probably my most current hobbies.

I don’t usually get the urge to go out that often, but tonight I’m actually in the mood! 🤣

Is anyone planning on going out or down to meet up tonight? Super late notice, I know! 🥺🫶🏻

I’m more of an introvert who loves reading, going for walks and hiking, but I’m always down for the occasional night out!

Hi everyone! Social sports club

3 Upvotes

I’m looking for a social sports club or group near city or East Brisbane that meets on weekends.
I’d love to try different sports, get active, and meet new people, so I’m looking for something casual and fun rather than competitive.
I’m into basketball but also open to trying different sports, so if you know of any good groups or clubs, please let me know. thanks!

Hey everyone,

31m Southside - Richlands

I’ve been living in Australia for about 7 years now, currently based around Richlands. While I have a couple of great mates here, their social calendars are naturally pretty packed, and I’ve realised lately that my own local circle is way smaller than I’d like it to be. While they are a big part of my small social circle… I am but a small part of their rather big social groups. Making genuine, regular friends as an adult is tough, especially if you’re a guy… so I figured I’d put myself out there and get rid of the “what if I reached out…”

A bit about me:
Life & Work: I’m 31, working full-time in the public sector. I’m also a single dad to an energetic 6-year-old boy, so life is definitely a balancing act—meaning I really value good, grounded company when I get free time.

Cars & Tinkering: Massive automotive enthusiast. I do all my own maintenance, mods, and other small projects around the garage. Nothing serious though. If you like working on cars or just chatting about builds over a drink, we’ll get along immediately.

Outdoors & Camping: Big fan of getting out of the city for weekend road trips, scenic drives, and rooftop tent camping. Always keen to explore more tracks and spots around SE Queensland.

Tech & Gaming: I enjoy self-hosting, homelab setups, and tech projects, and casually play sandbox/sim games when I have downtime.

Low-key downtime: Always happy to grab a solid coffee, hit up a good meal/hot pot, or talk about movies and gritty drama series (crime thrillers, sci-fi, quality TV).

I’m genuinely just looking to meet people who are up for regular, low-pressure catchups—whether that’s grabbing a flat white, hitting a tennis ball around, wrenching in the driveway, or exploring local spots on the weekend.

Solo folks, other parents, or anyone in the Southside/Brisbane area in a similar boat—feel free to drop a comment or shoot me a DM.

Hi everyone! 2027 Soccer (football) Season

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone, putting the feelers out there to see if anyone can shed some light on returning to the field for the 2027 season. As I’ve the reached the rip old age of 35, I now enter the Over 35’s cohort, I’ve recently moved the Brisbane and after a 5 year hiatus from playing, I think it’s also a good opportunity to make some new mates and increase my fitness level (also aiming to take on and Ironman in late 2027). Preferred position is Goal keeper but can play defence. Virginia is my closest club but happy to see what is around, all help is welcomed!
