Dean's mean ranting machine

After three weeks of heat, sweat, good food and some interesting people, I made it back in one piece. Not all is good though. Some impressions were anything but good. The Philippines is not what I would call a good place to visit. In it's current state it has become far too dangerous for tourists to explore by them selves. Theft has increased dramatically since Covid, so did poverty. Beggers nearly on every street corner asking for money. Many kids too.

Even though you might bump into friendly people from time to time, it is just not a place for a relaxing vacation. Life is damn hard in the Philippines and you see it everywhere. If you have other options, take them

Covering a topic that deals with the decline of memberships on Tinder in Germany. The newer platforms such as Humble or Bumble seem to attract more attention towards those who believe they can find a long term relationship. You can probably guess how I view these things and cynical as I am, I don't trust this development at all, nor do I believe anybody should be using one of those three apps.

But hey... Modern day problems, right?

stay tuned for more ranting on the next subject

This topic was long overdue. I am not completely in favour of the so called "Awareness Teams" or "Awareness programs" being used in clubs or discos. Aside from the fact that it is obviously important to ensure safety and protection to all guests, it also takes away many possibilities to get to know someone. When even the slightest innocent look of a man can be interpreted as a threat, then we have a security model that just doesn't work. Open communication might be in jeopardy if all of your actions can be misunderstood by the person in front of you.

First time now that I will be talking about the brand new single pf Peter Gabriel upcoming I/O album. My thoughts and guesses for future songs or the direction the album might take for the most part.

In the begining however, I talk about all sorts of things in terms of an update. 15 minutes in, I'm getting to Gabe.

Ceers!

Well hello there!

Dating in Asia as an online option. Is that even realistic and can someone have a positive experience?

Today I want to highlight those things by comparing them to the standards of dating apps in Germany, like tinder, but more specifically how women behave towards you.

Quite interesting if you aks me. O_O

enjoy :D

Merry Christmas and stay safe ;)

This time I am really raging against Valve and their idiotic approach to nerf weapons once again, but this time the must ridiculous way possible. I start to swear a lot on this one, so I setting it to explicit might be better. But it is unfortunately true, that Valve is just afraid to loose money, if they do not comply, and I try to explain here why.

Cheers!

This is it boys and girls, Gabriel is back with new material and going on a world tour in 2023!

Cheers!

It's time to talk about Peter Gabriels latest cover of Leonard Cohen, Here it is. My thoughts on the track, my thoughts on why and when Gabriel fans have been divided over the years, when ever something new came out, or of course the ongoing Genesis era vs. his solo career.
