University Park Commons, 65 Sidney St, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA
Do you think America is collapsing / people don’t want to work anymore / there’s been no good music since the Beatles / social media is polarizing society / the world is doomed? Let’s get together and let it out. Complaining can be frivolous fun, but it’s also a lens we can use to think critically about the way the world works, reflect on our biases, practice emotional resilience, and learn to focus on the things within our control.
Snacks will be provided and there will be an informal dinner afterwards for those who wish to stick around.
