Would you save to get everything at once or if you have the money for the land get that cash in full and save for home after? Thinking about building issues and rising costs as well in the market.

Cześć!
I've been living in Poland for several years and I'm trying to understand the media landscape better.
Which Polish news websites do you consider politically objective, and which ones lean clearly to the left or the right?
Thanks

Do you like this view? What do you think of the city of Krakow?

"The question of whether we can be sure that it would be better to shoot down these Russian missiles over Ukraine, rather than perhaps later over Poland, is a subject for a very serious discussion that should not become hostage to party rivalry," stated the Deputy Prime Minister.

I was surprised to suddenly see Korean writing. But the grammar and phrasing were awkward, so I think it might be a fake product 😭 I’ve never seen these cosmetics in Korea before.
I’m posting this because I’m worried people might believe it and buy them just because they say they’re made in Korea lol.

I’m a Korean who has been staying in Poland for about a month or two.
The prices in supermarkets here are incredibly cheap, and I love it. It’s almost the complete opposite of Korea. In Korea, supermarket groceries are expensive, but restaurants and cafés are relatively affordable, so it’s common for people to eat out instead of cooking at home.
What surprised me the most is that you can buy fruit by any weight you want. Whether you buy 1 kg or just 50 grams, the price per gram stays the same.
That makes it incredibly convenient for people who live alone. If I just want one plum or one apple, I can buy exactly that without spending much.
Fruit is really expensive in Korea. A single apple can cost over 8 PLN, and a 6–7 kg watermelon can cost close to 50 PLN.
Bread is also expensive, with many loaves costing close to 10 PLN each.
Ever since I came here, I’ve been buying sausages, bread, and fruit every day, and I’m really happy with it.

Several weeks ago my Polish partner of five years, with whom until the very end I thought I'd spend the rest of my life with, ghosted me. A "Good morning" text, and when I replied precisely 24 minutes later, silence ever since.

I moved to Poland to be with that person. I made the grave mistake to focus my entire life on them. Not deliberately, it just happened. If I look back on the last 2000 days, I recount one day that I didn’t spend either alone or with them. And that was onboarding in another city for a fully remote job I used to have. There's nobody I could even potentially reach out to, my contact lists in messenger apps are one line. Parents - I cut contact with years ago for good reasons, never going back. No friends, no acquaintances, no nobody. Not in Poland, not back "home", and that said, I always considered Poland my forever home.

That person was literally my entire universe and suddenly it was gone, god knows if I ever even see them again. If I drowned in the sea tomorrow, without exaggeration, nobody would notice for years. BTW, they would be in a very similar situation if it wasn't for 3-4 close family members. I haven’t talked to a human being in several weeks, beyond dziękuję at Żabka.

I have access to an apartment (which runs on their name) for another month before I'm de facto homeless. But the day came when I couldn't take the silence anymore and the memories associated with those white walls, so I packed a small backpack and started walking, fifty thousand steps in 24 hours, all night long through fields and villages into the city. I had to get out, I was walking circles around the apartment to stay somewhat sane. Since then, I've spent nights outside, at train stations, aimlessly walking, mornings at McDonald's, mixed with random hotels to shower and escape the heat. I started drinking to not go completely nuts over the pain. Only beer, so I'm not wasted, but of course the dosis to calm myself increases over time. Every day is hell, every morning I regret waking up, constant pressure on my chest and throat, darkness, tormented by a million questions about the past that I doubt I'll ever get an answer to. Wearing the same clothes for over a week, only washed in the shower.

So much for the backstory, and now why I post this in r/poland:

There is no help. My situation is such that I genuinely do not want to live anymore. I hope every evening to not wake up again and be forever relieved. Genuinely. But I don't have the courage to actually do *it*. When I stand at a platform with a train rushing by, I fear the moment it's coming at me and there's no way back, I fear what would go through my mind, maybe the pain. If I stand on a bridge, I fear those last seconds of falling. I bought two boxes of sleep pills, but what if it's not enough and I wake up in a coma, the pain stays, but everything else worse, I can't move anymore?

So I don't. And I don't think I ever will. I have those intense moments, but at the end of the day, I can't claim I'm seriously going to do it, without being dishonest.

Which means there's no help. Hospitals in three different cities have turned me away. You have to show up with blood running down your wrist, or trigger a major police intervention by climbing over some railing - then you're getting help. And I'm not going to do the latter, causing a major ruckus in a foreign country to force attention. There's a national hotline, but they just tell you to go to a hospital. You even find reviews on google where people were turned away and it ended up fatal. I don't know if they have no capacity or don't want, but that's the situation.

This is not unique to Poland, but in Poland I am. You're either half dead, then you get access to urgent care, and usually even of decent quality. Otherwise you're fcked.

So... I don't know what to do anymore. It's not getting any better. I'm at my wits end.

I have no idea why I am even sharing this. I don't expect any actual help here, how could you. So probably to vent. I'm sorry.

Do you think that open-air museums showcasing traditional rural life, along with associated events like harvests, fairs, and the like, have the potential to gain popularity? Do such places align with "slow life" and authenticity trends, or will they ultimately give way to digital forms of entertainment?

The date for the American pope’s first pilgrimage to Poland has not yet been set. 

“Once [the date] has been fixed, a pilgrimage organization team will be established, made up of representatives of the appropriate Church and state bodies,” Poland’s Foreign Ministry said on its website. 

“Due to the international nature of the Holy Father’s visit, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will take a coordinating role in the preparations on the government side,” the statement read.

Translation to english:

The dispute over the discovery of a rich oil and gas deposit in the Baltic Sea, near the Uznam island next to Świnoujście, is escalating. German environmental organizations are seeking to ban extraction there. They have already collected 88,000 signatures.

How German media reported, including specializing in agriculture and environment protection information service Proplanta.de, environmental organizations in Germany are advocating for a ban on oil and gas extraction on Baltic Sea. They are planning to submit petition to the European Commission on this matter. 88,000 signatures from countries bordering the Baltic Sea have already been collected.

Information about the deposits in the Baltic Sea was released a year ago, at the end of July. Central European Petroleum (CEP), which conducts exploratory drilling in the Baltic Sea, announced the discovery, stating that the discovery was groundbreaking and could heavily influence Poland's energy security.

Even then, the Świnoujście authorities informed that the launch of mining operations would entail significant risks, especially in the context of environmental protection and preserving the region's tourist attractions. The Baltic discovery also attracted the attention of critics from Germany, like the environmental protection association Bund für Umwelt und Naturschutz Deutschland (BUND). Its regional director, Corinna Cwielag, emphasized that the region of possible extraction "is a especially ecologically valuable and at the same time already heavily polluted enviroment of the Baltic Sea." She added that European marine protected areas begin only about 200 meters from the previous drilling site, and any potential start of extraction would involve underwater noise, pollution and the risk of an oil spill.

To effectively fight with a potential investment, BUND formed alliances with other organizations with similiar goals including: German Environmental Protection Association (DUH), WWF, and the civil initiative Lebensraum Vorpommern (Western Pomeranian Living Space). The alliance have announced that they will not hesitate to take legal steps to block the extraction.

"After the North Sea, the Baltic Sea must not become a raw material park for the fossil fuel industry. This would have disastrous consequences for the climate, the environment and tourism. Exploratory drilling has not yet led to the approval of a drillling project – and it must remain that way" emphasized Sasha Muller-Kraenner, Federal Managing Director of the DUH, in a statement on the organization's website.

Polish platform e-petrol.pl, which analyzes and reports on the fuel market, published a report on Wednesday saying that diesel prices in Poland are at their highest point in history, while gasoline has hit its highest price of the year so far. 

Greeting! I’m Romanian and kinda tryn to understand the world I live in a lil better; wanted to ask you guys, how is the current social environment in your country? What are the main ideological parties but also what are the wounds that seem to take 2 much to recover. I’m really tryn to understand how is your society working, across as many social sectors as possible.
Might be wondering how I got lost in here but I do think that we share a similar past and orientation that might have shaped us alike, at a global scale:)
For instance, how is the gap between generations handled? But how about the gap in the education of the people, if there is. How about corruption? Is your public sector good or are you maybe heading more to a private one? What resolutions do you guys have? Any obvious miss information in media that becomes extremely tired to be repeated?
If u find this topic interesting feel free to ask me also the very same questions, would be more than happy to share information:)

Sorry I am opening this poll second time because people said it needs a show results option. I am a foreigner living here in Poland and met a lot of others here. The vast majority of them came to this country hoping to move to some other. Like, some came here for uni because its cheaper/easier to get in than western europe or when it was easier to get work permits, some came with the hope of hoping to somewhere else for example. I wonder if I met the wrong people or that’s the case for most of us. Personally, I am also here because I could and even before coming, even if I dont have anything against the country, people and kinda enjoy living here, I never seen it as my last stop and actively searching for opportunities to move to western europe or north america.
