Parrots

A relaxed outdoor meetup for creative parents and their children at a playground in Rummelsburg (close to Ostkreuz) Day Dreamers Playdate is an informal gathering where parents can connect, talk, and share experiences while children play freely nearby. It’s a simple, open space to meet other creative people navigating parenthood, without pressure or structure — just presence, conversation, and community. Bring snacks, coffee, and whatever you and your child need. We’ll meet, let the kids lead the rhythm, and see who shows up. A small step toward building a local network of creative parents in Berlin.

Leben wir in einer Zeit der Beziehungsfreiheit oder der Einsamkeit und Entfremdung? Während die Auswahl scheinbar unendlich scheint, sprechen die Zahlen eine andere Sprache: 56,5 % aller Berliner Haushalte sind Ein-Personen-Haushalte. Etwa die Hälfte aller Rentner lebt allein, oft gegen den eigenen Wunsch nach Bindung. Welchen Einfluss hat das digitale Dating auf Partnerwahl und Familie? Und wie soll man mit modernen Partnerfindung umgehen? Führt es zum Glück, wenn man sich vollständig den Dating-Algorithmen der Agenturen anvertraut? Führt das zu einer Gamifizierung der Liebe? Es gibt Leute, die das Wisch-und-Weg-Dating des Beziehungsmarktes mit einem klassischen Gefangenendilemma vergleichen. Weil jeder insgeheim Angst hat, durch Verbindlichkeit eine noch bessere Option zu verpassen, maximieren alle ihren kurzfristigen Nutzen. Viele enden langfristig in der kollektiven Einsamkeit. Ist der „perfekte Partner“ ein statistischer Mythos, der uns unfähig macht, echte Unvollkommenheit zu lieben? Gibt es eine „Pflicht zur Fairness“ im Dating? Wo verläuft die Grenze zwischen legitimen Vorlieben (Präferenzen) und einer moralisch fragwürdiger Grundhaltung? Die alten Drehbücher des Patriarchats sind glücklicherweise überholt, aber die neuen sind noch nicht geschrieben. Wie verhandeln wir Erwartungen (wer zahlt, wer wirbt, wer bindet sich), wenn traditionelle Rollen wegfallen, aber evolutionäre oder kulturelle Muster tief in uns weiterwirken? Gibt es ein so etwas wie Rezept für Partnerschaft und Familie, das man beherzigen sollte? Sind Patchworkfamilien und Partnerschaften auf Zeit unser unabwendbares Schicksal, wenn wir uns binden? Dieser Abend soll die intimste aller menschlichen Verbindungen durch die Brille von Philosophie, Logik, Ethik, Spieltheorie und Soziologie betrachten. Im Zentrum steht die Frage nach dem angemessenen Umgang mit dem Thema Partnerschaft.

Bringt gute Laune, schönes Wetter und Interesse mit. Wir treffen uns je nach Tour an unterschiedlichen Orten. Am 1. April 2018 um 15 Uhr gehts los am Eingang zur Akademie der Künste am Pariser Platz neben dem Brandenburger Tor.

Ditch the old book club, where everyone has to read the same book...this is better! It works like this: Bring your own book. Come chat, have some tea or coffee, get to know your neighbors. Then we quietly read together, side by side, for about one hour, each one reading their own book, and afterwards we talk with each other about what we are reading. The usual agenda: - Arrival and introduction (~20 minutes) - ⁠Silent reading (~1 hour) - ⁠Discussion (~30-40 minutes) - ⁠Join us for a bite at a local restaurant afterwards, if you like! You may read in any language, you may read any book. We are a group of international residents of Berlin from many different countries, of all ages, and we converse in English. We welcome you! No registration needed – the event is donation based. All funds support the Offenes Wohnzimmer.

Please contact me on WhatsApp if you’d like to join our group, as this group will soon be deleted from Meetup. 017684589930 Thanks, Marco We play every Sunday—year-round—and are looking for a few players who are willing to join regularly. Average age is around 27-50. We play on grass using poles as goals, which allows us to adjust the field and goal size depending on the number of players. Please arrive on time, as we need to divide the teams. Game starts 11:30 sharp. Wir spielen jeden Sonntag - ganzjährig - und suchen nach ein paar Spielern, die sich vorstellen können, regelmäßig dazuzukommen. Alter im Schnitt ca. 27-50. Wir spielen auf Rasen mit Stangen als Toren, wodurch wir die Platz- und Torgrösse flexibel a die Anzahl der Spieler anpassen können. Bitte pünktlich da sein, weil wir die Mannschaften aufteilen müssen. Das Spiel beginnt pünktlich um 11:30 Uhr.
