Does anyone know a good online expat community in Berlin who can support with immigration advice?

In #Berlin dürfen Eltern gerade je nach Schule ihre Kinder nur von dort abholen, wenn sie mit dem Auto kommen. Bestimmt weil der grobe Pollenfilter die giftigen Gase filtert oder so 🤦‍♂️

"Mehrere Schulen im Gefahrengebiet, darunter die Schule Königin Luise-Stiftung in Dahlem und die Athene-Grundschule in Lichterfelde, haben mitgeteilt, dass Schüler die Schulgebäude momentan nicht verlassen dürfen. Alle Kinder bleiben in den Gebäuden und die Fenster verschlossen. Die Kinder dürfen nur gehen, wenn sie mit dem Auto abgeholt werden, ansonsten müssen sie in der Schule übernachten."

Feuerwehr sieht keine "akute Gefährdung" durch Großbrand in Fabrikhalle

Im südwestlichen Berliner Ortsteil Lichterfelde steht eine Fabrikhalle in Flammen, die Rauchwolken sind von weitem zu sehen. In der brennenden Halle standen auch Chemikalien, doch am Nachmittag gibt die Feuerwehr Entwarnung.

By popular demand we're moving the GNOME 46 Berlin release party by one week, to Saturday April 6th and Sunday 7th.

Everything else remains the same, we're still going to do hacking, cooking, and talks at @offline on Saturday and more focused hacking on Sunday :)

#gnome #gnome46 #berlin

Announcing the program for the GNOME release party on March 30+31 🥳️

On Saturday we're trying something different from previous editions with cooking, talks, etc. It will be a bit of an experiment, but I think it's going to be a lot of fun 🧑‍🍳️🍲️🥕️

To make up for it we're meeting on Sunday specifically for hacking though :)

If you already know you're coming please add your name to the list on the Hedgedoc: hedgedoc.gnome.org/gnome46-ber…

Edit: The event has been moved to April 6+7

Look at this page:
berlin.de/familie/informatione…

This is a great example of how far we're still away from actual inclusion. 🤦‍♀️

It's about "inclusive" school in Berlin. At the top is a big image - an image that doesn't even have proper alt text, but the alt text only names the image source.

The picture shows three kids (maybe about 8 years old) in a classroom, all busy writing something.
The two kids in the back are a white girl and a white(?) boy. That boy is sitting on a chair that is too low for him respectively at a table that is too high, which already makes this image a shitty example for inclusion. Can someone please take care of this kid's needs?

The kid in the front is black and sits in a wheelchair. Because, right, the only way to represent disabled people that non-disabled people can think of is a wheelchair. 🤷‍♂️
Very obviously though, this is not the boy's own wheelchair (at least that's what I hope for him 😉), as it is not customized in any way, but just some very generic wheelchair model.

So I guess, the photographer was like "Hey kids, we need a picture that represents diversity, can one of you please sit in this wheelchair? Oh yeah, you over there, black AND in a wheelchair, that's perfect!!"

This page is so symptomatic of how people "mean well" but fuck it up completely. 🙄
