The Berlin courts just ruled that temporarily renting apartments requires a change of zoning from regular residential, to make it harder for new people to move to the city and seek permanent housing. The Greens in Neukölln are quoted as calling the new rule a good day for Berlin renters. https://www.rbb24.de/panorama/beitrag/2026/09/berlin-verwaltungsgericht-kurzzeitvermietung.html

To this day, the peripheral regions of the former Papal State, namely Emilia-Romagna, are left-wing out of historic resentment of the economic and social backwardness of direct papal rule.

Last week I attended management training at work. Got all excited about my job. Then I come back to my job and reality sets in. I have a safe, but boring job. It pays pretty well. They don't work me to death. But I have zero influence to fix anything. I'm not allowed to fix any problems except my own team's problems.
