  • Worked at a gas station. On my first day my supervisor gave me a folder with screenshots from the CCTV and told me to check it, before I give someone the key to the restroom. It was some kind of a black list with images of people who made such a mess that they checked the cams to see who it was and ban them eternally.

    Once had to tell someone that they’re not allowed to use the restroom due to previous incidents. Felt like I dodged a very disgusting bullet…






  • Yeah. It’s extremely hard to get a “Cannabis Social Club” (nonprofit cannabis growing association, and the original name is indeed in English) approved

    The with work doesn’t end there. Some clubs had to close again after approval because the requirements are high and they’re scrutinized often / more closely than others.

    So for most people who want to consume cannabis, the alternatives are growing it yourself or buying on the black market.

    Or ordering via shady online prescription platforms. At least until they take that away from us again.

    It definitely feels like they’re trying really hard to not offer good alternatives to the black market. The current situation is better than before but still not ideal…







  • They’re discussing changes to this since the Ukraine war began and these changes could be enacted within the next years. The young people currently demonstrating would be directly affected so it’s understandable they go to the streets. If all parties needed for a majority agree on the relevant points, things can get moving pretty fast (see the decriminalization of Cannabis for the whole country or the adaption of the access rights of police to enable them to use Gotham in BW …).

    It’s also worth to mention that the German military has issues with providing enough equipment for their recruits and there are scandals about abuse, racism and sexism on a regular base. The current government fails to address these issues in a proper and transparent manner but wants to force young people to join anyway.
