Today is quite the special day: Two of our German states are having their election today, and in both, the oppositional right wing party AfD is expected to effectively steamroll the election. I don't see myself supporting the party, but I still believe this likely outcome won't hurt the country on a federal level. It is quite the opposite in fact. For way too many years we've had politicians in charge who no longer tried to enforce of what the people want, but instead, they dictate what is...

There is something I find very interesting within the group dynamic of my new schooling program I am in. There are people with very different age groups, from 21 all the way to way beyond 50. But that isn't what I find interesting. What I find interesting is the fact that when there is something going on that causes anxiety of one of the guys I do group work together with then I will naturally take the lead of it. I do it for the sake of him not mentally shitting himself because I know how it...

Last day of the year. Not gonna lie, I wanted to write this a year before, but that was when I started getting knee deep in some unholy shit. Unbelievable in all honesty. Anyway, let me summarize this month: I met my mother again, last time was 2019 at the funeral of my grandmother. This time it was at home. We didn't really talk much, or at all because the whole conversation was basically just my mother and stepmother. My father, my younger halfbrother and me barely said a thing. I admit, I...

I wanted to write an entry about a week ago, but I had another appointment that was re-scheduled to yesterday so I waited to make this. So far everything seems to be going great to get an apprenticeship next year and everything is gonna covered. Nothing is set in stone yet, but so far there is nothing standing against it which is great. Not having something negative to look at for once feels great and looking at it back now, it does make me realize that I'm starting to change my usually...

I want to keep things short in this one today. First of all: Financially everything is settled again, a great relief not gonna lie. Secondly, everything is looking good regarding the possibility of getting into programming. So there is an upwards momentum in my life again which is great. It is ironic that as soon as my life is starting to go the right direction again, another war breaks out. This time in Israel. And while I educate myself about the history of the region so I can understand the...

The title says it all. It's been almost two months since my last entry, and many things have happened, some good, some bad. First of all, I am now unemployed, but I am still in contact with a company that contacted me a few weeks ago trying to get me employed somewhere. Talking about "leasing" workers. It's an abusive field in Germany, but it's better than nothing. Or so I thought. Don't get me wrong. I need work. But I won't travel way over 2 hours to work 8 hours inside a large hall...

For those that know my political views, you know my stance on the German Empire. I want to give a brief summary for those that do not. Personally, I like using symbols from the German Empire, mainly to honor it in what it did good for us Germans. And that is a lot. The unification of the German states is the primary reason why it is right to honour the Empire. However, it is also essential to be aware of its flaws and mistakes, the biggest being the genocide against the Herero, the...

It has been almost a month since my last entry, a lot of things have happened. Some worth mentioning, other things not so much. I want to put a bigger focus on the good things today: I have only one week left to work, then the company shuts down and by the end of the month my contract ends. While this does currently put pressure on me on hopefully finding an apprenticeship in time, it also gives me great relieve because I can finally see the end of an era pretty much. Working in a social field...

I just want to write down my personal thoughts about something that just happened that I feel important to me to write down my own stance on this. So I happened to, somehow yet again, end up on a game server with the same streamer guy I already stumbled upon recently. It was...interesting and fun up until a certain point where a random viewer from the chat joined me. I didn't know this player personally, nor did I tell him about the situation or ask him to join. He joined by himself, which he...

The title says it all. What a week this has been! One of the disabled people I work with collapsed this monday. The first time ever I was in an emergency situation like this. I'm glad he seems to be better by now as far as I know, but that monday, I was...overwhelmed. I was really afraid something permanent was going to happen, not to mention the worst. Thankfully there were others around me who were more competent at taking care of him so I was able to just focus on making a call and getting...
