A space for conversations that unfold naturally — no pressure to impress, just room to be curious and engaged. 🌿 Sometimes the most meaningful evenings begin with nothing more than “I’m here.” ✨ Suggested Ice Breaker Question: “What almost kept you from coming tonight?” Orga This meetup is donation based.

Live Music Complaint Party- Let‘s rant, whine and complain together!
Live Music Complaint Party- Let‘s rant, whine and complain together!
**Please note that we invite people through different channels, so there are more attendees than you can see here :)** The Discussion Experiment is a project in which we are exploring methods to have more meaningful, insightful discussions. And sometimes the best way to understand each other is to complain together (and have fun with it). For exactly that reason, we are having another live music complaint party: This event will be our stage to let it all out and rant about everything that’s currently shitty, sad, frustrating, annoying, infuriating, maddening, disheartening, inconvenient, fucked up, and/or insufferable. And: We will have three musicians who will underscore our ranting and whining! The amazing Emanuele, Eric, and Rochelle will be co-hosting this event and will improvise on the keyboard, bass, and drums for us. We’ll take turns complaining about everything — from the tiniest personal inconveniences to the never-ending global polycrisis. You can actively participate or just listen. You can bring a list of complaints or improvise on the spot. We might touch on all kinds of painful topics, but we’ll probably laugh a lot while doing it. (Please note that openness and dark humor are welcome, but discriminatory humor is not.) Find out more in the FAQ below, or [send us an email](mailto:info@diskussions-experiment.de) if you have any questions! *Oil painting by Antoine-Louis Barye, Large Lion (Walters Art Museum). Photo and editing by Igor.* +++++++++ **FAQ** ***What can I expect from the event? + Trigger warning*** Each event is a an experiment so it’s difficult to predict exactly how it will play out or feel. This specific event is intended to provide an opportunity to vent, but at the same time, we want to try to keep it fun and humorous. Please note that individual participants may also bring up very personal and difficult topics. Please be cautious if you have trouble with dark humor or if there are topics that make you uncomfortable when they’re being talked or joked about. ***Who is this event for?*** This event is for anyone who likes this idea and is curious about the event. If you are considering complaining, your complaints do not need to be “original” or “special.” Anything that bothers you is good enough! ***Do I have to actively participate, or can I just listen?*** It’s perfectly fine to just listen. You can decide for yourself at any time how active you want to be and will not be asked to speak. However, there might be breakout groups, i.e. short segments in which all participants talk in groups of 2-3 people. You do not have to participate in these; you can use the time for a break instead. ***What’s the duration of the event?*** Each event lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours. Feel free to stay a bit longer to finish the snacks, chat with other participants, and complain more. ***Is the venue wheelchair accessible?*** The venue is on the ground floor and accessible with wheelchairs. However, there are unfortunately no wheelchair-accessible bathrooms! ***What is "The Discussion Experiment"*** The Discussion Experiment is an ongoing series of events through which we continuously test methods that foster more meaningful and inspiring group conversations. Among other things, we experiment with techniques that slow down discussions, improve clarity, and support participants in expressing their ideas more effectively.

Volunteer Meet-Up by Queer Bridges
Volunteer Meet-Up by Queer Bridges
**Volunteer Meet-Up by Queer Bridges** With ***Munir*** and ***Roby*** For **LGBTQIA+** **[free event with registration](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/queer-bridges-monday/w13-2026-2)** A welcoming and informal space to connect, share ideas, and explore new ways of co-creating Village together. Whether you’re already volunteering or just curious, this meet-up is a chance to get involved, meet others, and feel inspired. ✨ Gently hosted with support from the Queer Bridges team, the gathering offers an open and supportive environment to exchange experiences, reflect together, and share tools and perspectives helping us to create together a meaningful, inclusive, and vibrant space where community can grow and thrive. We’re inviting all we are village volunteers to join a meet-up hosted by the Queer Bridges project lead, together with our volunteer coordinator. Many of you already bring a lot of care and awareness into our spaces—this meet-up is a chance to connect, align, and share what’s working as our community and programs continue to grow. It’s also a moment to put faces to names, get to know the Queer Bridges program, and clarify what to expect when volunteering within it. We’ll share a few practical points that can be helpful when volunteering across activities and teams. The gathering will offer space for collective reflection on topics such as migration, asylum, forced displacement, diversity, community care, and collective responsibility. It’s also an opportunity to exchange experiences: how we welcome participants, collaborate with facilitators, and handle everyday situations in ways that keep our spaces respectful, inclusive, and supportive—without overcomplicating things. Bring your questions, tips, and perspectives. Your experience is a big part of what shapes our culture. This meet-up will also feed into our Volunteer Guidance Book, so it reflects real volunteer practice and supports us as we grow—together. 💬 **What to expect** This space is open for your questions, experiences, and perspectives. By learning from one another, we continue strengthening a culture of mutual support and collective care within the Village. 🌟 **New here? You’re very welcome** If you’re curious about getting involved, we’d especially love to welcome people who want to be part of a team co-creating a warm, welcoming queer community space—one that embraces diversity, respect, and care. No prior experience is needed—just openness and a willingness to connect. Feel free to stay afterward for informal chats and connection. ✨ **Why volunteer with we are village?** Being part of Village means more than supporting a single event—it’s about joining an ongoing journey. Together, we create meaningful, inclusive, and vibrant spaces where community can grow and thrive. We warmly encourage you to join us for this shared moment of connection, reflection, and co-creation. 💛 **Queer Bridges: Forging connections and providing resources for LGBTQIA+ people with migration experiences**. Queer people with migrant backgrounds in Berlin often face unique challenges in their daily lives that can limit their access to supportive communities and inclusive environments. With the support of the **Deutsche Fernsehlotterie Stiftung**, we have developed the Queer Bridges program to overcome these barriers. We provide resources, networking and support in a welcoming environment for queer immigrants and refugees through our special program. Our goal is to foster a sense of belonging to the local LGBTQIA+ community, enabling smooth integration and an improved quality of life for queer folks with experiences of migration and/or displacement. **General Information** **Participants**: This workshop centers all who identify as LGBTQ+ and have experienced migration and/or displacement, while welcoming allies. Language: English / German 🔵 **Freiwilligen-Treffen von Queer Bridges** Mit ***Munir*** und ***Roby*** Fur **LGBTQIA+** **[kostenlos mit Anmeldung](https://wearevillage.org/shop/queer-bridges-monday/w13-2026-2/)** Wir laden alle we are village Freiwilligen herzlich ein, an diesem Treffen teilzunehmen, das vom Queer Bridges Team gestaltet wird. Ziel dieser Session ist es, gemeinsam zu reflektieren und den Freiwilligen Werkzeuge, Erfahrungen und Lernmöglichkeiten zu vermitteln, die dazu beitragen, Bewusstsein, Sensibilität und Fürsorge im Umgang mit den vielfältigen Teilnehmenden und Facilitator\*innen unserer Programme zu stärken. Wir laden alle „we are village“-Volunteers herzlich zu einem Meet-up ein, das von der Projektleitung von Queer Bridges zusammen mit unserer Volunteer-Koordination gestaltet wird. Viele von euch bringen bereits so viel Fürsorge und Achtsamkeit in unsere Räume ein – dieses Treffen ist eine Chance, uns zu vernetzen, uns abzustimmen und das zu teilen, was gut läuft, während unsere Community und unsere Programme stetig wachsen. Es ist auch ein schöner Moment, um Gesichtern Namen zu geben, das Queer Bridges Programm näher kennenzulernen und zu klären, was dich dort beim Volunteering erwartet. Wir werden ein paar praktische Tipps teilen, die dir bei der Arbeit in den verschiedenen Teams und Aktivitäten helfen können. Behutsam begleitet vom Queer Bridges Team, bietet dieses Zusammenkommen Raum für gemeinsames Nachdenken über Themen wie Migration, Asyl und Flucht sowie Vielfalt, Community Care und unsere kollektive Verantwortung. Gleichzeitig möchten wir Erfahrungen austauschen: Wie heißen wir Teilnehmende willkommen? Wie arbeiten wir mit Facilitators zusammen? Und wie meistern wir Alltagssituationen so, dass unsere Räume respektvoll, inklusiv und unterstützend bleiben – ganz ohne die Dinge unnötig kompliziert zu machen. Bring deine Fragen, Tipps und deine Sichtweise mit. Deine Erfahrung ist ein wesentlicher Teil dessen, was unsere Kultur prägt. Dieses Treffen wird auch in unser „Volunteer Guidance Book“ einfließen, damit dieses die echte Praxis widerspiegelt und uns dabei hilft, gemeinsam zu wachsen. 💬 **Was dich erwartet** Dieser Raum ist offen für deine Fragen, Erlebnisse und Perspektiven. Indem wir voneinander lernen, stärken wir die Kultur der gegenseitigen Unterstützung und der gemeinschaftlichen Fürsorge im Village. 🌟 **Neu hier? Du bist herzlich willkommen** Falls du neugierig bist und gerne mitmachen möchtest: Wir freuen uns besonders auf Menschen, die Teil eines Teams sein wollen, das gemeinsam einen warmen, einladenden queeren Community-Ort gestaltet – einen Ort, der Vielfalt, Respekt und Fürsorge lebt. Du brauchst keine Vorerfahrung, nur Offenheit und Lust auf Begegnung. Bleib danach auch gerne noch für einen lockeren Austausch und ein Kennenlernen da. ✨ **Warum als Volunteer bei „we are village“ mitwirken?** Teil des Village zu sein bedeutet mehr, als nur ein einzelnes Event zu unterstützen – es heißt, Teil einer fortlaufenden Reise zu sein. Gemeinsam schaffen wir bedeutsame, inklusive und lebendige Räume, in denen Gemeinschaft wachsen und gedeihen kann. Wir laden dich herzlich ein, bei diesem gemeinsamen Moment der Verbindung, Reflexion und Mitgestaltung dabei zu sein. 💛 **Queer Bridges: Verbindungen schaffen und Ressourcen für LGBTQIA+ Menschen mit Migrationserfahrung bereitstellen.** Queere Menschen mit Migrationserfahrung in Berlin sehen sich in ihrem täglichen Leben oft mit besonderen Herausforderungen konfrontiert, die ihren Zugang zu unterstützenden Gemeinschaften und integrativen Umgebungen einschränken können. Mit Unterstützung der **Deutschen Fernsehlotterie Stiftung**, haben wir das Programm Queer Bridges entwickelt, um diese Hürden zu überwinden. Wir bieten Ressourcen, Vernetzung und Unterstützung in einem einladenden Umfeld für queere Migrant\*innen und Geflüchtete durch unser spezielles Programm. Unser Ziel ist es, ein Gefühl der Zugehörigkeit zur lokalen LGBTQIA+ Community zu fördern und damit eine reibungslose Integration sowie eine verbesserte Lebensqualität für queere Menschen mit Migrations- und/oder Fluchterfahrung zu ermöglichen. **Hinweise** **Teilnehmende:** This workshop centers all who identify as LGBTQ+ and have experienced migration and/or displacement, while welcoming allies. **Sprache:** Die Veranstaltung wird auf Englisch und Deutsch sein.

Meetup #12 — Remaking the welfare state
Meetup #12 — Remaking the welfare state
A welfare state takes responsibility for its people and supports them when in need. When costs are rising, but budgets aren’t, government needs to find efficiency gains to maintain social protection levels. A government-commissioned report recently recommended ways to modernise social and welfare services, making them more people-friendly and less bureaucratic. Meanwhile, small and large projects are underway to make benefits services more fair and easier to navigate, and to make the state overall more equitable. At our March meetup, we will hear about what a modern, digitally transformed welfare state looks like. We will welcome the following speakers: * Florian Theissing, Agora Digitale Transformation * Björn Mohr, Technologiestiftung Berlin * Anja Mayr & Jakob Häußermann, DigitalService des Bundes CityLAB Berlin hosts the event in their stunning 1920s space, a former airport building. All presentations will be given in English. Questions in the later discussion part can be raised either in English or German. Pictures and videos will be taken. ––– Das CityLAB Berlin ist Gastgeber der Veranstaltung und lädt zu seinen beeindruckenden Räumlichkeiten im früheren Abfertigungsterminal des Flughafens Tempelhof ein. Alle Vorträge werden in englischer Sprache gehalten. Fragen im anschließenden Diskussionsteil können sowohl auf Englisch als auch auf Deutsch gestellt werden. Es werden Video- und Fotoaufnahmen gemacht.

Philosophie 2.0 - spielerisch klug durch maximale Klarheit
Philosophie 2.0 - spielerisch klug durch maximale Klarheit
Mit dem Titel "Philosophie 2.0" wird nicht zu viel versprochen. Nicht alles was mit 'Philosophie' bezeichnet wird, hat damit auch zu tun. Das gilt allgemein. Wörter werden zu oft nicht präzise gebraucht, aber wenn man alles mit beliebigen Wörtern bezeichnen würde, könnte man nichts mehr genau verstehen, könnte nichts mehr genau begreifen. Also blieben die Irrtümer bestehen. Das hätte mit Philosophie aber definitiv nichts mehr zu tun. Was also ist das Gegenteil belanglos-vieldeutigen Wörterverdehens mit hochassoziativen Sprüngen bei denen allerlei übersehen wird und ergo das Wesentliche nicht mehr als solches klar erkannt werden kann? Maximal exakte Begriffsklärung. Und das geht! Das geht über einen systematischen Aufbau aller Kategorien - gestützt über einen Algorithmus, welcher Kategorienfehler automatisch vermeidet und mithilft, das Ganze im Blick zu behalten. Dass dies für uns Personen gar nicht so einfach ist, sieht man daran, dass jede Person (auch Du) irgendwann irgendwelchen Irrtümern aufgesessen ist. Jede Person, die sich also für irgendetwas ernsthaft (nicht wegen blanglosem Amüsement, oder wegen ideologischer Rechthaberei) interessiert und ergo dafür offen ist seine Auffassungen weiterzuentwickeln, ist bei dieser Veranstaltung goldrichtig. Ablauf: Bei unserer Diskussion geht es dabei nicht um irgendein festes Thema, sondern jeder schreibt ein Wort in seinem Interessengebiet auf einen Zettel und wir ziehen diese paarweise für je eine Runde. Die beiden Wörter haben gemeinsame Kategorien, aber es gibt auch Unterschiede. Wer diese nicht alle kennt, kann nicht behaupten, dass er tatsächlich begriffen hat, wovon er meint, dass es ihn interessiere; dass er definitiv wüsste wovon er spricht. Dieses Problem hatte schon Sokrates erkannt. Nur haben wir jetzt einen Algorithmus, welcher zu absoluter Genauigkeit verhilft um diese Irrtümer loszuwerden. Daher 'Philosophie 2.0'. Siehe dem Bild oben werfen wir die Bedeutung (die Menge aller Kategorien einer Begrifflichkeit) per Beamer an die Wand. Wir sind nicht in der Schule, d.h. es gibt keinen Zeitdruck, keine Noten, keinen Wettbewerb und keine Profilierungsmotive, sondern jeder hat alle Zeit der Welt um über die schematisch dargestellte Bedeutung nachzudenken - und diese zu hinterfragen. Die grafisch dargestellten Bedeutungen des Algorithmus sind nicht perfekt. Es geht nicht darum irgendetwas zu akzeptieren, sondern andersherum: die Bedeutung anzugreifen und zu verbessern. Jeder kann sie ändern! Die Diskussion ist also eröffnet. Jeder muss Gründe angeben. "Kann ein Walfisch ein Wellensittich sein?" \~> Natürlich nicht, denn Säugetiere sind keine Vögel. "Kann ein Fenster ein Getränk sein?" \~> Jeder weis, das ist unmöglich, denn Festkörper sind keine Flüssigkeiten. "Kann eine Demokratie eine Republik sein?" "Kann eine Vermutung eine Meinung sein?" "Ist etwas zu begreifen das Selbe wie etwas zu verstehen?" Nichts regt dermaßen zum nachdenken an wie die Bedeutung der Begrifflichkeiten algorithmisch stabilisiert zu systematisieren. Und wenn wir uns nicht einig werden? Die Diskussion läuft auch nach der Veranstaltung weiter. Jeder kann online von zuhause die Diskussion fortführen - mit dem selben mitdenkenden Algorithmus. Man könnte sagen, es sei ein neues Gesellschaftsspiel - ohne Wettkampf, sondern in kollektiver Bereicherung an Klarheit, von der alle gigantisch profitieren, obschon jeder nur einen sehr kleinen Teil beiträgt. Das "Spiel" funktioniert auch mehrsprachig, denn der platonische Raum der Begrifflichkeiten ist der eindeutige Raum, auf den das Vokabular einer Sprache nur referiert. Man kann auch von Zuhause aus online mitmachen. Den Zugang können wir dann über die Kommentare hier organisieren. Bring deinen Laptop mit, dann wird es einfacher... Dieses Spiel macht klug: Schach trainiert zwar das Konzentrationsvermögen, hat aber mit der Wirklichkeit nichts zu tun. Dieses Spiel hingegen schon, denn genau mitdenken zu können setzt voraus genau zu unterscheiden. Wer die Bedeutung der Wörter sauber ausdifferenziert wird immer klüger. Mach mit!

Using Philosophy to Cope with Current Events
Using Philosophy to Cope with Current Events
So this month's prompt is more general. I think we can all agree that we are living in "unique" times that require coping skills. I think that one role and/or purpose of philosophy is to help us deal with our daily lives and our "unique" times. So, let's share our feelings and thoughts about which philosopher/philosophy we turn to in order to deal with our crazy events. Who/what helps you stay focused in your daily life and helps you sleep at night. I find that Stoicism with a little philosophical pessimism mixed in goes a long way in helping me deal with what I see as very destructive, fearful and mean spirited public policies at both the state and federal levels. Hope to see you on March 28th!

In-Person Event: The Answers to Depression & Anxiety
In-Person Event: The Answers to Depression & Anxiety
This is an in-person meeting. At this meeting you will get answers to depression and anxiety. Find out the source of them and how to get rid of them. Did you know that unwanted emotions like anxiety, depression, unhappiness, loneliness, hopelessness, anger, fear, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not due to a chemical imbalance in your brain from some nebulous chemical reaction "by chance". Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. 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. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation of Central Ohio and Church of Scientology of Central Ohio.
Arthouse Friday: THE DRAMA at the Drexel Theatre!
Arthouse Friday: THE DRAMA at the Drexel Theatre!
Join us as we get together for an Arthouse Movie Friday event to see the A24 dark comedy /romance / psychological-thriller, THE DRAMA! The film stars Zendaya and Robert Pattinson as a happily engaged couple whose relationship is challenged when one discovers unsettling truths about the other. Here are details, a trailer and our plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: The film follows a happily engaged couple whose relationship is put to the test when an unexpected turn sends their wedding week off the rails. The film comes from A24, is written/directed by Kristoffer Borgli stars Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Mamoudou Athie, Alana Haim, Hailey Gates and Zoë Winters. QUICK WORD OF WARNING: The film hasn’t screened for critics yet and most of the details are being kept tightly under wraps. But, early buzz (possibly promotional) says the film is a brilliant psychological thriller/romance but also provocative, twisty and some contains occasional uncomfortable viewing! I love the cast and trailer, so look forward to seeing for ourselves! ZENDAYA-PATTINSON TRIFECTA CHALLENGE: Robert Pattinson and Zendaya will star in THREE movies together this year, including THE DRAMA, Christopher Nolan’s THE ODYSSEY this Summer and Denis Villeneuve’s DUNE: PART THREE at Christmas! TRAILER: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zmKcUa4Xxk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zmKcUa4Xxk) PLAN: We’ll plan for 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 30 minutes before showtime! Advance ticket purchase not required for this theater but early arrival is advised. Possibly post-movie get-together at the nearby Rusty Bucket! Complete details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer. Take care and look forward to seeing you there, Dan

Let's try a Friday Night Fish Fry!
Let's try a Friday Night Fish Fry!
We thought of one of the interesting things that can be enjoyed at this time of the year. We will be meeting at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church for a "Fish Fry" in Marian Hall on Friday, March 27th at 5:00 PM. It might be fun for you to experience what has become a tradition on the Fridays before Easter. They will have fried fish or baked fish, French fries and Cole slaw, as well as beverages, all for $16.00 for adults. They will have other beverages and desserts available for sale, as well. We have never tried this, and sometimes there are quite a few people at these events so we hope that we will be able to find each other easily. I'll try to have signs outside Marian Hall that Identify our group. We hope to have you join us!
