Yeah, I thought as much. I will not agree to anything but being paid and if they insist I will make them do so in writing.

Yeah, that’s true. Thinking about it, the bean bags are probably not the worst approach to the problem.

When I was 17 and I didn’t have my divers license yet, me and a friend thought it would be a good idea to drive to the neighbour village for a party with my fathers car. When I tried to reverse out of the garage, I steered too early breaking off the bumper and scratching the side of the car. We knew we fucked up so we tried getting the car back in the garage, which we just couldn’t do scratching it some more. So we called a friend with a license who arrived laughing at us, parked the car, and just left while still laughing. Needles to say, my parents where absolutely livid. Rightfully so.

My brother told me that his boss will buy him a new tv instead of paying him for about two weeks of working overtime (apparently he also did that before for an ipad). He said that he doesn’t mind because the experience he gets is worth more to him and that the company needs to stick together. Didn’t expect that kind of :bootlicker: in my family tbh.

This comes off as needlessly insulting. Declaring a bunch of philosophers as Hitlerites (Adorno had to flee from the Nazis, you know, and psychoanalysis didn’t have such a good standing with them either) without elaborating and then saying someone is seething with Hitler particles (whatever that means) because they expressed a genuine interest in discussing philosophy is some weak ass shit.

For some context: This protest took place in the context of the Rosa Luxemburg conference, which is a yearly event organized by the newspaper “junge Welt”. As they reported, multiple participants of the protest were heavily injured, including broken bones and a life threatening injury of an elderly man (German interview with a paramedic). As far as I can tell, the injured policemen are, unfortunately, not in a life threatening situation. The headline that they are injured is probably only right wing propaganda.

The place is also a museum where nazis regularly go to. I remember reading an interview with the museum management in which they said they where trying to reverse the intention of that room, in which nazis originally had to stand at attention, by letting people chill there. As if fucking nazis are unable to appreciate their murder symbols sitting down, or standing beside some bags.

A few month back I was offered a new contract at work with 50% more working hours, which I accepted. So the past few month I’ve been working according to the new contract. But because I have a ton of things to do besides working this job and because I am really bad with my finances, I didn’t notice that they never adjusted my pay. Apparently someone in the administration has misread the new number of hours I was supposed to work and they now told me that it might not be possible to pay me the missing amount of money (they didn’t say why). Instead, I will be compensated for it by having to work less in the following month.

But I do want my money and I already talked with one of my superiors about it, who told me that she once was retroactively paid for over a year of work. So it seems that the administration just doesn’t want to be bothered with suckers like me. I will know how this all turns out next week.

I’m also confused about how they blew it up. I assumed they bombed it when I read about it but it looks like they used controlled explosives to collapse the building, or am I wrong? The fact that they filmed it in this way seems to affirm that they did it with controlled explosives (at least I haven’t seen them film a bombing in this way).
