To commemorate the three-year anniversary of our fateful 2020 shutdown, we’re joining forces with our kinky friends at Hit Me Up to bring one of our wildest digital getdowns to life:

FRESH MEET 💾 Dirty Computer

Together, we’ll be dialing up a cyber-fest worth setting your AIM away message for.

:::: FEATURING ::::

the floppiest disks

the hardest of drives

videos that take days to load

illicitly downloaded music

chatroom flirtations with strangers

kinky cord management

porn malware ruining the family computer

At 11pm, we transition into the afterparty Dirty Thursday: Y2K to dance til the download is done.

:::: LOOKS ::::

The dress code is Y2K Cyber Chic, so stun in your Oakleys, drip in your Claire’s, and shine like a CD-R.

FRESH MEET is an event where non-monogamous, polyam, non-traditional + curious folx gather over cocktails and throwback grooves.

Whether you’re already deep into the scene, dipping in for the first time, or just an open-minded reveler looking for a good hang, we got you.

Mingle, flirt, play our weird-ass party games, enjoy the drink specials, and maybe even take away a tasty lil midnight snaq.

21+
