I am "exponentially" better at nothing in comparison to others. There's always this one kid, who will do whatever I do, far better than I can ever do.
Gangnam style ? Non, je ne regrette rein ?
Disclaimer: I'm not trans myself. My experience/opinion is formed by listening to my trans friends and observing their experience.
Berlin is largely leftist with some anarcho spaces. Trans acceptance is mandated entry requirement. I'm sure some ahole wiggles in occasionally but I've seen others get very vocal and kick them out immediately. I would say it's an accepting place with several social events geared towards the LGBTQ community. A friend of mine is from the US too and she came to Berlin because of the issues she faced in her home country as a (trans) woman. It's been about a decade since she got here. I can find out about some forums, spaces you can talk / ask questions in. I don't want to presume the details and speak for the trans community. Shall I look into it and pm you ?
Queer German woc here. And in tech too ! :D Yes, I do find it conservative. I live in Berlin. For all the hate that non Berliners like to lay on Berlin, it's an accepting vibrant place. And if you are vegan, you'll be spoilt for dining options. Vietnamese is crazy good here. And, concerts, there are multiple shows for different genres practically everyday. And several of them at sort of low-key underground places with their own charm. Berlin has its pitfalls but I don't underestimate the peace of not being stared at constantly for just living my life. Oh, and racism in rural areas: If you ain't white, enjoy some extra stares even when grocery shopping. Living outside the ring zone will give you the relatively quiet life you want. Rent is not cheap though. Cheaper than Munich though. But the rental crisis here is no joke either. There are some fun hacker and maker spaces here in Berlin: xhain and cbase for example that could be interesting for you. One thing I do live about Munich: if you are a hiker / mountain climber, that place is excellent. So many mountains and trails are nearby !!
Would you be able to afford remote workcation kinda thing ? You can test out the cities and see how you vibe with it.

A woman. I'm interested too... It's really tiring keeping track of it on an analog Calendar.
If you can't find anything, I suggest you make her a barebones one or get her to use something like etar. It's all local.
Don't know if it's called messing with it but installed GTA and pretty much played that any chance I got. Also learnt that "sound" is just an additional aspect of a game I can get by without
Potatoes. I can make it into whatever I want and it has never disappointed me to date.
Mmm, make plum compote and gift a big jar to all your neighbours and jumpstart you career as the beloved neighbourhood grandma
Never heard of that in German. It's just marshmallows with a generic German accent instead. But it's cool to learn something new. Which region says that, OP?
