Frage: if i go to the einwohnermeldeamt will they be able to help me register (me being technically homeless) or at least tell me what to do next? I don't want to risk a hours-long queue to get sent away with nothing
sturdy shadow
I think they should, but I've never Einwohnermeldet myself
safe yacht
I don't think so. I never dared to go before I had an address to register at, but I wouldn't expect it. But can't you technically stay in Germany as a tourist as far as they're concerned until you have an address?
pallid kelp
i need to register because practically anything requires me to give them my address
right now i'm in a ferienwohnung but apparently i can't use it to register
although i'm negotiating that with my renter, i'm practically barred from making any progress until i get my address registered
can't look for a job, can't get a proper bank account, can't get a rent because i can't have a job
safe yacht
Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I know you need a registered german address to open a bank account, but can't you use your current address and bank account to look for a job?
sudden panther
Nah they're being dicks to him and consider him homeless until he gets a real address.
safe yacht
When I first came to Germany I registered somewhere I didn't even live a month after I moved...I don't know if that's an option for you and if you know someone who'll let you do that, and ofc not very legal but fuck it
sudden panther
Also Berzi, didn't riot or someone tell you "don't fokken come here without a job or ye'll die" or something about a month ago?
safe yacht
But I think they might even require a rental agreement now, fortunately I didn't need one 4 years ago, but idk what the laws are now and if they're different for every city
pallid kelp
Arrem I didn't have a way to find a job before coming here, I'm not done super qualified memer that anyone would like to hire even if i don't live here yet. Also many ask for the months pay, how the heck would I get that before moving here
That applies only to people who work for international firms or have very good titles
I already asked around and nobody seems to be willing to give me an address to register. My boyfriend has relatives in Germany but it's another state and an area basically only inhabited by factory workers
What kind of place is that where you lived for less than a month? Not a proper rent I imagine?
safe yacht
I lived at a place I found through connections, a friend of a family friend or something, but she was renting the place too and illegally subletting it to me
I lived there for longer, I just found someone who let me register at his address, again the same way. It took me 6 months to find a proper place to live.
pallid kelp
So for the anmeldung itself can I just register the address or di they need proof that I live there, or even worse do they need something by the vermieter? In the former case I could just register this place, otherwise I'd have to wait for the renter to make up his mind
safe yacht
I don't know, at the time I just needed to say an address
But I think they changed the laws and require a rental agreement now, at least in Munich. Might be different where you are.
pallid kelp
Dortmund. Hopefully it's different. Guess I'll do some research. I also don't want to wrong the renter by registering without his permission
Thank you for sharing your experience btw

In that case you will just have to stay awake.
But you should go to bed a bit earlier than you normally would.
lost dagger
if I go to bed before 10:00-11:00pm ish after regularly going to bed a lot later, I invariably wake up at around 1:30 am
no matter if it's 7:00 pm or 9:00 pm or whenever when I go to sleep
opal sequoia
That's fine.
opal sequoia
Yeah, or stay awake.
But either way, it's the best position to be in to reset your schedule.
Rather than going from sleeping all day, straight to waking up at 8am, it's a lot easier to go from day-sleeping to waking up at around midnight-5am time period.
And keeping that consistently is easier.
And from that you can make it a bit later until you have a good spot.

That makes sense, thanks.

I can understand the encouragement to vote third party, but it sadly really can't work in the US. It works in countries like Australia though, because we have preferential voting and so on.

In the meantime, you can use work your way around that by saying "die Person" but that's not really a good alternative

there "are" ways, but it's nothing official yet

as a person who uses they/them pronouns it was one of the first things i considered tbh

Yeah, "es" has the same negative connotation as using "it" in English

most folks prefer you just ask if ur unsure, tho using they at least in english is safe if you're unsure
now im just flashbacking to getting my die/das/der wrong in school all the time
pine ginkgo
can be weird sometimes :)
agile dock
even now im just like german is weird :^D
thick charm
Yeah. I have been speaking this language for over 20 years now and still royally screw up from time to time
That's just part of the package
hot cloak
yeah people on the internet are generally dickbags about trans or nb people tbh
but irl is different, more accountability for the garbage you spew
eh need to scroll down before talking sry
opal sequoia
Hmm, but what about like, when you're writing about not a real person in the general sense in writing? It's just "man" then?
Or not necessarily writing, I guess.
But you know what I mean. When you're using a singular non-gendered pronoun but not talking about a particular person.
thick charm
As in "One can do this if they.."?
opal sequoia
Or about someone whose gender you can't ask, I supposed too.
Yeah.
"If they wanted to, they could ..." is a type of construction I'd use in English to refer to someone as a general human doing something.
Or do you just use "er oder sie" ?
thick charm
There's no actual gender neutral word for someone. Man in that case describes a hypothetical person
opal sequoia
Hmmm.
hot cloak
i suggest we adopt the finnish hän
opal sequoia
What's that?
agile dock
doing a little reading i saw someone saying that they use sier or xier but are often misunderstood as mispronouncing sie
twilit garden
I have never heard of that tbh
agile dock
yeah it seems like its only a v small sub-set of ppl in online spaces

Wormic?
pine ginkgo
What you got so far?
dry lynx
keeps ur data safe
the people keeping it safe can do bad stuff w it
sell it rtc
etc
pine ginkgo
Contra: Invasion of privacy, Unclear levels of access for third parties, possible selling of personal data, unclear length of data storage
Contra: Possibly link your data for one thing to data for other things
(Like personal ads things)
dry lynx
got some pros ?
pine ginkgo
Mhh, well mostly the things that are contrary to the contras :D
Pro: prevents unauthorized access to private data (in theory), your activity can't be easily tracked by others, dsta won't be sold for others gans
Something like that
Cant think atm xD

@pallid kelp what does that even mean??? (google showed untervermietvertrag =under rent contract) so till now u were living illegal?
naive charm
Untermieter ist the person, who rents the apartment
You would translate it as lodger
lunar moss

naive charm
He meant "Untermietvertrag", i guess
As far as I know there is no "Untervermietvertrag"
opal sequoia
They were staying in temp accommodation, kreigu, and looking for a place to stay.
naive charm
Also as far as google knows, the word Untervermietvertrag doesnt even exists in the german language, so it ver likely was just a typo
lunar moss
