Yes it's definitely healthier. But now that you mention Schnaps...

Sometimes, just sometimes I feel a little sad about traditions getting lost. Where I'm from it has something of "taking care of guests", that you hardly can replace without alcohol.

For example "Christbaumloben", a tradition we practiced. It means going from house to house at Christmas, telling people that their tree looks nice and getting Schnaps. It's just a nice way of connecting to people you often don't see anymore, maybe because you moved away from home or so. Impossible when nobody's drinking.

We need new traditions that don't require drinking.

Good point. Funny how legalization of one drug can make the dangers of another more obvious to society.

Yeah I got the same impression, Germany here as well.

And I wasn't sure if it's just a thing in my friends group and if it has to do with a certain age and not being able to drink because of pregnancy and having kids that normalized it. That's why I asked.

I heard of the spooky two days hangover by some my age, but never experienced it myself. Still I lost motivation for drinking, somehow.

 

Do you have the impression that alcohol consumption that was pretty normalized a few years back on every social occasion is getting questioned lately? What do you think about it?

I though of Trigema too.

ArmedAngels is German, ethical and organic, they produce in Turkey or Portugal.

Schiesser is a German brand for underwear producing in EU.

That's just what I can think of right now, the list should be much longer if you mind to look out for it, a lot more than five.

Portugal produces a lot of shoes as far as I know. Veja for example. But I guess there are many more brands.

 

Hey Lemmings!

Do you have any nice stories about dating or finding love to share with those who might struggle?

I see where my mistake was. I searched in "all" not in "communities" only. Thanks a lot 🥰

I'm missing some of my topics. Is noone interested in dating, dating advice, self improvement, psychology and this stuff?

Or am I missing something?

People are nice here. I like that. 😊👍

I once even made the tofu myself. That was a mess. But an interesting experiment. 😅
