Community-Treffen für (un)perfekte Hundemenschen
**Treffen für (un)perfekte Hundemenschen**
Du lebst mit einem reaktiven, ängstlichen, unsicheren oder einfach besonderen Hund?
Dann kennst du vielleicht das Gefühl, ständig mitdenken zu müssen, Situationen zu vermeiden oder dich von anderen Hundehalter:innen missverstanden zu fühlen.
Dieses Treffen bietet einen entspannten Rahmen für Austausch mit Menschen, die ähnliche Erfahrungen machen. Es geht nicht um Training, Beratung oder perfekte Lösungen – sondern um Verständnis, Begegnung und ehrliche Gespräche.
**Was dich erwartet**
* Kennenlernen in gemütlicher Atmosphäre
* Austausch über den Alltag mit unseren Hunden
* Raum für Erfahrungen, Herausforderungen und Erfolge
* Verständnis ohne Bewertung
* Neue Kontakte zu Menschen, die ähnliche Situationen kennen
**Ablauf**
18:30 Uhr – Ankommen & Kennenlernen
19:00 Uhr – Offener Austausch in der Gruppe
20:30 Uhr – Gemütliches Ausklingen & Vernetzen
ca. 21:00 Uhr – Ende
**Gut zu wissen**
Der Austausch findet bewusst ohne Hunde statt. So können wir entspannter miteinander ins Gespräch kommen und den Fokus auf den Austausch legen.
Die Teilnahme erfolgt auf freiwilliger Beitragsbasis.
Die Teilnehmerzahl ist begrenzt, damit eine persönliche und angenehme Atmosphäre möglich bleibt.
**Ort:** Wien, 1020 (Nähe Augarten)
**Format:** Indoor-Stammtisch ohne Hunde
Der genaue Veranstaltungsort wird nach der Anmeldung bekannt gegeben.
Wir freuen uns darauf, euch kennenzulernen.

Checkst du? Comedy – Freches Stand-up Open Mic @TheComedyPub
**Freches deutsches Comedy Open Mic in Wien! Junge Comedians + erfahrene Pros, gratis Eintritt & Drinks – jeden Mittwoch im Comedy Pub.**
## [HOL DIR DEINE RESERVIERUNG!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/checkst-du-comedy-freches-stand-up-open-mic-thecomedypub-tickets-8S49H0?ref=MeetUp)
Willkommen zu **Checkst du? Comedy**, der mittwöchlichen Stand-up-Show im *The Comedy Pub*, bei der junge Talente und erfahrene Comedians gemeinsam für einen Abend voller Energie sorgen. Frech, direkt und immer spontan – hier wird Stand-up neu gedacht und live getestet.
Diese Show ist der Spielplatz der neuen Generation von Comedians in Wien. Sie bringen frische Ideen, mutige Witze und ungeschliffene Jokes auf die Bühne. Erfahrene Profis runden den Abend ab und zeigen, wie Timing und Bühnenpräsenz funktionieren. Das Publikum bekommt so einen spannenden Mix: jung, wild, frech – und trotzdem mit Comedy-Handwerk auf höchstem Niveau.
## 🤔 Was ist ein Open Mic?
Ein Open Mic ist der Ort, an dem Comedy geboren wird. Hier probieren Newcomer ihre allerersten Jokes, während Profis ihre neuesten Texte testen. Manche Gags knallen sofort, manche landen vielleicht erst beim zweiten Versuch – aber gerade das macht den Reiz aus. Du bist live dabei, wenn Comedy entsteht, wächst und manchmal glorreich scheitert. Und genau das ist **echtes Stand-up**.
## 🍻 The Comedy Pub – Der Comedy-Hotspot in Wien
Die Bühne von **Checkst du? Comedy** ist der historische Altbaukeller im *The Comedy Pub* (Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Wien). Oben: Irish-Pub-Flair mit Drinks, Bar-Snacks und guter Stimmung. Unten: Kelleratmosphäre pur – nah dran, direkt und perfekt für Stand-up.
Dank der Lage direkt an der U4-Station Kettenbrückengasse bist du in wenigen Minuten mitten im Comedy-Geschehen.
## 💡 Eintritt frei – Spenden willkommen
Lachen soll für alle zugänglich sein! Deshalb ist der Eintritt frei. Aber Comedy lebt auch davon, dass Publikum und Künstler\*innen sich gegenseitig unterstützen. Wenn du gelacht hast, zeig’s mit einer Spende – fair, ehrlich und der direkteste Applaus überhaupt.
## 🎟️ Regeln für das Publikum
Damit die Show für alle funktioniert, bitten wir dich um ein paar Basics:
* Sei pünktlich – die besten Plätze sind schnell weg.
* Lachen ausdrücklich erwünscht – am besten laut!
* Keine Gespräche während der Show, Fokus auf die Bühne.
* Kein Heckling – die Comedians sind funny genug. 😉
* Spenden sind willkommen – Support your locals!
## 🎉 Warum Mittwoch?
Weil der Mittwoch sonst der langweiligste Tag der Woche wäre. **Checkst du? Comedy** macht aus der Wochenmitte ein Highlight: jung, frech, energiegeladen und mit Line-ups, die jede Woche neu überraschen.
Wenn du Lust hast auf ehrliches Stand-up ohne Filter, dann bist du hier genau richtig.

Thursday Morning Co-Working Session – Get It Done Together
This is a structured coworking session for people who want to follow through and get it done. To join, please register here (takes 1–2 minutes): [https://nocrastination.space/](https://nocrastination.space/)
**We like a touch of mystery!** **The exact location will be sent to you by email 24 hours before the session. Please make sure to register in advance.**
Join our [WhatsApp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/K6LidaoQhe16wZ0Se9pNM6?mode=gi_t). Follow us on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/nocrastinationclub/)
You just haven’t been able to follow through. You start things, lose momentum and find yourself starting over again. You’re not alone.
Most people get support at the beginning. And applause at the end. But the part that actually matters? The middle. The quiet, repetitive, sometimes frustrating part where nothing feels exciting, and everything depends on showing up. **That’s where we are.**
At NoCrastination, we don’t meet for hype. We meet to **show up and finish something, together.** Not perfectly. Not magically. Just consistently.
**What this really is**
This is a space for people who are:
* building something
* figuring things out
* or simply trying to stay on track
**without doing it alone**
You don’t need to be an entrepreneur. You just need something you want to move forward.
**What happens here**
You bring something you’ve been putting off. We sit down together. We focus. And you leave with something done. That’s it. And that’s everything.
**Why people keep coming back**
* “I finally follow through on what I plan”
* “I leave with real progress every time”
**Time and Location**
🕐 **Time:** 9:30 AM – 12:30 NOON
💻 **Bring:** Your laptop, journal, or anything you’ve been avoiding
**Hosted by**: NoCrastination. See you across from the ground floor bar ✨ you will see us sitting at the long table with our laptops
**Friendly reminder:** As we are guests of the venue, outside food and beverages are not permitted. We kindly ask everyone to support the venue by ordering food or drinks during the day.
**Please arrive on time or during the break windows to avoid interrupting the focus sessions** 😊
**Focus schedule:**
9:30 AM – 10:20 AM → Focus Block 1
10:35 AM – 11:20 AM → Focus Block 2
11:35 AM – 12:25 PM → Focus Block 3
**If you expect to arrive late, please come during one of these break windows:**
10:20 AM – 10:35 AM
11:20 AM – 11:35 AM
12:25 PM – 1:00 PM for Lunch + Pitch
Simple structure. Real progress.
**This is for you if:**
* You keep starting but don’t finish
* You feel stuck working alone
* You want structure — without pressure
* You want to express yourself AND move forward
**What you’ll get**
Not motivation. Not a productivity hack.
**You’ll get: ONE THING DONE.**
And then you come back, and do it again.
**This is how it starts**
You don’t need to commit to anything big. Just come once. Pick one thing.
Finish it. We’ll be there. As we’re growing and improving the experience, we’re moving to a more structured system. Registration is part of participating.
**Stay connected**
Join our [WhatsApp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/K6LidaoQhe16wZ0Se9pNM6?mode=gi_t)
Follow us on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/nocrastinationclub/)

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Learning from Everyday Data
**Practical Curiosity: Learning from Everyday Data**
How do we actually get better at utilizing our day-to-day data? Fancy dashboards and complex models might look nice and draw attention, but that’s not where most of us spend our time. In fact those shiny outputs frequently sit unused, while the real insights are drawn from the analyst’s daily practice.
Sometimes it’s as simple and as powerful as noticing that a segment is shrinking, a channel is underused, or certain links keep getting all the clicks. There’s many different places that the spark of insight can come from, but you have to keep your head in the data and know where to look.
In this session, we’ll explore real-world examples of how segmentation, testing, and click behavior can uncover practical digital marketing opportunities. You’ll leave with inspiration for your own use cases, along with a few simple ways to ask better questions, spot meaningful patterns, and make smarter decisions without overcomplicating it.
**About Our Speaker:**
[Elaine Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/elainearmbruster/) is a Director of Digital Experience at the [American Diabetes Association](https://diabetes.org/), where she focuses on using data and insights to create smarter, more effective digital experiences. A lifelong Columbus resident, she has built her career in email marketing and the broader digital user journey, and is finding she most enjoys working in the messy middle where systems, data, and big ideas don’t quite line up yet.

IxDA Chat n Pancakes
You can sleep in on the Sesquicentennial (observed), we’re shifting to the following Friday.
But join the local UX community for a chat and some biscuits to catch up. If you were in CA for Figma Config, tell us all the lines and you can tell me how I can animate an SVG without coding it by hand, and why I’d even want to.
Thanks to the team at Nationwide of supporting the group.
