For this book club, I’d like to suggest a story about a woman who is simply trying to live in a way that will make society leave her alone. As usual, it doesn’t quite work out. Convenience Store Woman has been described by The Guardian as “a deadpan Japanese tale of an oddball shop assistant that possesses a strange beauty”. What struck me, though, was not its strangeness but its calm. Unexpectedly, the book helped me find reassurance in routine itself—in small, unnoticed actions, and in the permission to exist sometimes as a function, sometimes as a fictional character. I hope you are intrigued by now. If not, I would still encourage you to pick up Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata— it is quite short! —and to join our discussion, where we will reflect together on questions of normality, meaning in work, and the fragile line between individuality and conformity.

Outdoor calisthenics workouts are a fantastic way to build strength, improve fitness, and enjoy the great outdoors 😁🦾 Calisthenics is a form of strength training that uses the resistance of your body and gravity to help strengthen your muscles and improve your coordination, endurance, and mobility. It’s a workout that relies on body weight with little or no equipment. In fact, almost all common bodyweight exercises are considered calisthenics exercises. Some examples include: - airsquats - pushups - pullups - frogstand -handstand -musclup -backlever aso 😁 Whether you’re a beginner or an advanced athlete, calisthenics provides a holistic approach to fitness. 🏋️‍♂️💪

Join us for a deep dive discussion into *A Clockwork Orange* by Anthony Burgess comparing it with the iconic film adaptation by Stanley Kubrick. We’ll explore themes of free will, morality, violence and how differently the story unfolds on page vs. screen.

Hi All, We talked a lot about Luxembourg's mining past on our hikes. The museum days ([https://www.luxembourgmuseumdays.lu/?lang=en](https://www.luxembourgmuseumdays.lu/?lang=en)) offer the possibility to combine hike with a related museum. Rumelange has 2 autopedestres. Combining them will get us to 16km. The trails look fine. Not flat but not too challenging (for me). The second trail finishes near the museum ([https://mnm.lu/](https://mnm.lu/)). So who wants, can visit the museum afterwards. They offer some guided tours for that day. However, I don't know if we'll make it on time for one. Lunchbreak? You all know me well. We will have one somewhere along the trail. Public transport: 508 direction "Ottange, Pl de Moncontour" from Luxembourg Gare Rocade at 10:10. Leave at "Rumelange, Gare Routière". Parking: There is a larger parking near the meeting point. Try "Rue des Martyrs". Carpooling: https://groupcarpool.com/t/f2bvug Please be mindful of keeping the cars clean. Just because we hikers might be dirty after the hike, doesn't means the cars should become dirty as well. Discuss with your driver about the museum visit. Questions? Hope to see many of you on Sunday Jörg Disclaimer: The hike is at your own risk. Come prepared (water, clothes, food, suncream...). Know your limits. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask in the event or as private message.

As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able! Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!

While some are still meeting online, this is an in person event. Please note that we have attendees of all levels of speaking, including some native speakers. All are welcome! Also, as we meet at the same time and place each week, many don’t RSVP on the app, so we will likely have more attendees than noted here. Note: if you are asked to pay and upgrade the Meetup app, this is not necessary. You can ignore this and still attend our meetings.
