New Starting Time: 12:00 For space reasons, we are limited to a certain number of attendees, so please update your RSVP if you can't come. If you are new, come and say hello, as we know that suddenly going quiet for 45 minutes and staring at that blank page can be intimidating when it's your first time. We have a lot of long-term regulars who will be happy to help you feel welcome. In between sessions, we have a Telegram chat: https://t.me/joinchat/ERW3pxD5kfELGeWs9SUhjw For more information, visit [https://shutupwrite.com](https://shutupwrite.com/).

Welcome to Terrible Football Berlin!
Do you want to play football but don't want to pay? Are you a bit unfit, a bit old, or a bit Terrible? Want to have a relaxed kick about and a couple of beers after? Then Terrible Football is for you!
Anyone can play: any ability, any age, and any gender. Terrible Football is about miss kicked clearances, sweet half volleys and desperate diving saves. We play in the rain, sun or snow. It's completely free, and always will be. It's open, inclusive and Terrible. We usually play on Astro (artificial grass) and sometimes on grass, depending on numbers. Bibs, balls, and cones are taken care of! Just bring sporty clothes and a pair of rubber studded football shoes you'll be good to go! You don't need shin pads and **we don't allow hard plastic or metal studs.** The exact location of the event is in the Telegram group description ([https://t.me/joinchat/OkWQBBcw3b7ptauwrIEfig](https://t.me/joinchat/OkWQBBcw3b7ptauwrIEfig)). Still trouble finding us? Send a message in our Telegram group and we'll help you out. You'll also stay up to date with last-minute changes!

We'll start off the session with a run in Gleisdreieck park that might include scaling some walls, visiting a few sites in the area to explore their opportunities for climbing and balancing, or going up or down stairs in unusual ways. After the outdoors bit, we come back to our gym where we focus on building strength, working as a group, and learning basic martial arts techniques. We are a small, accessible, mixed-gender, queer-friendly group open to anyone, without any prior knowledge or specific degree of fitness required. Our martial art is Jutaijutsu, a traditional Japanese one focused on self-defence. Sounds interesting? We'd love for you to drop by and join us. You'll need running shoes and comfortable workout clothes, including a raincoat or the like for the park if the weather is bad. Once indoors, we train barefoot. The first three Meetups are free of charge. If you'd like to join our group beyond that, we would ask you to join our association, https://yanagi.berlin, a martial arts school based in Berlin. Membership there is 30 EUR/month and you will be able to train three times a week.

Worship and prayer

Ok everybody, it's 2026, and after taking a break for the holidays, games are starting up again as usual. We'll meet, have a beer, and play a round of cards against humanity. Laughs will be had, groans will be groaned, beer will go down the hatch. This event is public, and prior experience with the game is not required. You are not required to drink alcohol, but please note that we are crashing a bar (cash only), so a beverage purchase or two is appropriate and necessary for us to maintain their goodwill. See you there!

Good wine. Great cheese. Even better conversation. Some things are simply better together. The right wine with the right cheese. The right person at the right moment. The trick, in both cases, is knowing what you're actually looking for. **Pairing** is an intimate afternoon for singles in Berlin. Guided by a wine expert and a professional matchmaker, and held at the cozy and unpretentious Nicki's on Mommsenstraße, you're invited to this elevated singles event. No prior knowledge required... just bring your curiosity! The format is simple: a guided tasting of carefully selected wines paired with cheese & nibbles, good conversation, and a small group of internationally-minded singles who are there for something real rather than something swiped. You will taste 3 wines: a pinot noir, a cabernet sauvignon, and a chardonnay, and experience how the right cheese can transform your experience of them. We promise: no speed-dating, no name badges, and no awkward introductions. Just wine, cheese, and a comfortable atmosphere that leaves no one excluded. Amongst the specially selected wines, we'll weave in conversation cards, a short talk from a matchmaker's perspective, and playful details throughout. **Your hosts:** Alysia Tofflemire is Germany's only certified matchmaker and founder of [Alto](https://www.altomatchmaking.com), a boutique matchmaking agency for internationally-minded singles across Europe. Annie Jia is a Berlin-based wine expert with deep expertise in wine & hospitality from Shenzhen to Paris. **Details:** 📅 Saturday 16 May 2026 🕒 15:00 to 17:00 📍 Nicki's · Mommsenstraße · Berlin-Charlottenburg 🎟 [€35 per person](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/pairing-a-wine-cheese-tasting-for-singles-registration-1988267931907) · includes guided wine tasting, 3 carefully-chosen wines with complementing cheese & nibbles, water, and expert facilitation 👥 Limited to 12 guests **This is a ticketed event!

After a lovely first Poetry in the Park gathering in Bürgerpark Pankow, we’re bringing the idea into a second round — this time with a photographic twist. Join us for a spring afternoon around Schloss Charlottenburg where photography and poetry meet. Bring a poem you love — or one you wrote — and we’ll begin by reading a few poems together. Then we’ll set out for a gentle 30 minute photo walk through the park, capturing details that catch our attention: blossoms, reflections, statues, hidden corners, fleeting scenes. Using the images we gather as inspiration, we’ll meet again on picnic blankets to write short poems from guided prompts and share them in an informal circle. No photography skills needed. No poetry experience required. Just curiosity, observation, and a bit of spring magic. Bring: * A poem to share (optional) * A journal + pen * Your phone or camera * A picnic blanket Duration: approx. 2 hours. This meetup is donation based. Your contribution helps keep this community alive and is highly appreciated. You can either contribute in cash or via Buy me a Coffee: [https://buymeacoffee.com/butterflyradar](https://buymeacoffee.com/butterflyradar) Questions?

Whether you’re deep into embedded systems, exploring new ideas, or just getting started, you’ll find a welcoming space to collaborate, share, and get inspired. **New to electronics or curious about tinkering?** You’re absolutely welcome. If you’re a beginner and want to experiment, I’ll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things out—whether that’s blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors.

This session will be at the Worthington Park Library in the Olentangy Meeting Room.
