Hola a tod@s, Continuamos con nuestras charlas mensuales en el café La Opera. En esta ocasión yo mismo realizaré la charla. Para los que no me conocéis soy Doctor en historia contemporánea por la UB y fundador de este grupo de meet up. ¿Sabías que la ley de vagos y maleantes en la que se apoyó la dictadura franquista para reprimir la homosexualidad era una ley aprobada por el gobierno de izquierdas de la II República? En esta charla exploraremos la represión de la homosexualidad durante el franquismo. Conoceremos el armazón ideológico-legislativo que enmarcó dicha represión. ¿Sabías que existieron colonias agrícolas donde estas personas eran aisladas y sometidas a trabajos forzados? Desde 1954, el régimen franquista convirtió a los homosexuales en “enemigos” legales. En esta charla analizaremos los argumentos pseudocientíficos en los que la dictadura se apoyó para justificar esta persecución. RESUMEN DEL PLAN: TÍTULO: **GAMBERROS, HOMOSEXUALES, VAGOS Y MALEANTES: LA REPRESIÓN DE LA HOMOSEXUALIDAD DURANTE EL FRANQUISMO** Ponente: Miguel Garau (Dr. en historia contemporánea y animador de este grupo de meet up) Duración de la charla: 60-75 minutos A continuación preguntas y tertulia abierta LUGAR: En el primer piso del mítico Café la Opera (Las Ramblas). Sala reservada exclusivamente para nosotros, donde podrás disfrutar de una bebida mientras escucháis Aforo limitado. Por favor se ruega compromiso, si no vais a venir desapuntaos previamente. Precio: 14 Eu (consumición aparte) Muchas gracias de antemano a tod@s, ¡Os espero! Miguel

See you on the train 🌧️ Breaking News: The weather forecast for Sunday has officially decided that our beautiful picnic at Cala Sant Francesc should instead become… a group swimming exercise fully clothed. Apparently the rain gods are very enthusiastic about our social life. Since most of us prefer our picnics without soggy sandwiches and existential reflections under a tree, we will move the Cala Sant Francesc picnic expedition to NEXT Sunday. Same idea, same beach, hopefully with less aquatic drama from the sky. But fear not, our stomachs shall not suffer because of this meteorological betrayal. This Sunday we will execute Plan B: Operation Peruvian Survival Dinner at Kenko, near Metro Encants. And honestly… this might be the universe doing us a favor. For those who have never tried Peruvian cuisine, prepare yourselves. Peru didn’t just invent good food, they basically looked at the world’s ingredients and said: "Yes. We will combine ALL of this and make it glorious." In conclusion: Nature cancelled the picnic. Peru saved the evening.

Let’s walk the gardens and enjoy what has spring has on display.

This is a free, in person meeting. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
