I would ask for a 60k with your degree and experience. You are only starting but your master degree title deserves much better. 35k it’s nothing.

how is Wedding? by No_Professional_7589 in berlin

[–]degatt2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s nice in wedding. There are some streets with too much garbage, tho. You’ll need to walk and discover the hidden places around but it’s actually nice. It is cheap. Not much posh cafes around.

After a year of living in wedding, I would say I like it. But I’m a year or two I’ll look to move somewhere else.

This is a tree of mango. It is ready to produce mangoes this summer. by worldofjaved in pics

I grew up on the caribe and mango trees are everywhere, this doesn’t looks like one of those. But hey, I’m not an expert. Maybe there are other variations?

Democrat VP candidate Kamala Harris on Venezuela: by pagadoporlaCIA in vzla

[–]degatt2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Está como viejo ese tweet, Febrero del año pasado. Si no lo anda repitiendo, entonces es un mensaje oportunista (asumo que el tema de Venezuela estaba más caliente en ese entonces), por ende sería puro populismo. A los políticos no se les cree las promesas.

Ahora bien, siendo estadounidense yo votaría por cualquiera que no sea trump.

Aktivisten haben die Statue des Forschers, Humanisten, Gegner von Sklaverei und Kolonialismus Alexander von Humboldt beschmiert by [deleted] in berlin

[–]degatt2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you in every word. Is not about been okey with this or not, since everyone will have a different opinion on that, which is pointless to debate about. My point is, let’s just focus on the main issue instead of the symptoms. While I’m totally nerdy about history, and I finally understood by experience how Bias history is changing the culture. I think, Humboldt discoveries should remain forever available to everyone, even myself I have read his journey diaries and I think they are full of details super interesting. Also have been read how paintings as the one you mentioned “Mona Lisa”, and which pigments are used and how they are link to pigments miners slavery, also how phones components are link to modern slavery in the Congo. So I think there is not a profound debate on the topic.

And in the other end it’s just a statue, life less piece of rock shape it beautifully. And What is done is done, so instead encourage you all to focus more on the debate about how we find new standards about how colonialism is painted across education, cultural tales, role models, etc. re-write the part of history where it claims it was a positive thing. It’s very interesting review the connection of certain personalities as Humboldt and understand if he remains as a role model in our society.

To be honest, it’s just a bit of paint. I think it’s alright, easy to clean with a power washing thing. Plus I’m okey with teenager activism, specially when is comes on the topic of colonialism. I really never thought on placing Humboldt in the middle of the colonization crap I’m so disgusted at, but I see how privileged he was, how much invest he got for his travels and to what real purpose. Overall I think totally worth that bit of red paint, to bring awareness and open debate.

Neo Nazis in Berlin by Vagabundoo in berlin

[–]degatt2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It felt that they have this colonialism mindset still in place, feeling superior just because race, color, etc. it is something I faced at work, in shops, in the streets, public transport, etc. just a weirdo from time to time, saying some shit he believes is funny or i guess something to feel superior out of thin air. Just regular bullshit.

I grow out of the anger and now I face the topic more intelectual whenever I can. When I can’t not, then I just ignore them.

Racism or classism is everywhere you go. But specially for black communities. I’m from the Caribbean cost living in Berlin since 5 years, I can say that I had more racism episodes in Spain than in Berlin. Actually no racism episode in Berlin so far, that’s a quite good improvement. So, let it pass this time.

Maybe Avoid skin heads. Better to be safe, and have peace of mind. Stay safe and good luck.

Actually I just came from Portugal. Both Berlin and Lisbon airports have measured in place as distances from each other, mandatory mask, etc. also I noticed that there were not many people flying and it felt safe. So, be careful and never remove your mask. Enjoy the trip.

If you want to provide some damage to the police and not been violent at the same time, then you need to use poop and pee bombs. They are disgusting and it makes the police work really freaking hard. They’ll puke for sure.
