I Break The News

Hello everybody, Welcome back to your favorite blog about no-expenses-spared birthday festivities! I created this blog in 2012, when I had just recently started studying Journalism in London. It was a time filled with a lot of uncertainty. All I knew, was that I wanted to create my own little corner on the chaotic internet. A place for self-expression, observations and calm.     If my blog were a child, I would now have a bratty teenager on my hands. 💁🏼‍♀️ But my path turned out a bit differently.  Maybe unusual even, for someone from my region. No herd mentality for me. Especially not in my younger years. I had this calling, I just could not silence. It somehow had to do with music and journalism.  It was never easy, but it was also necessary, to follow it. Would I have ever thought, when I started this blog,  that the world would be in the state it is currently in - 14 years later?  Absolutely not, because I had high hopes. Still, this is a place for ...

Hey everyone, Welcome back to your go-to destination for compelling investigative journalism!  I thought my week was already over, when it suddenly all just became so clear to me. Why are we still in this loneliness epidemic when the lockdown is over since 3 years now? The business model is this: isolate people from each other as much as possible. When they want to make a human connection by using a dating app for example, force them to hand over all of their data in return but still try to let them be alone forever, more time on the platform, more ad dollars. So I asked the - trusted - chatbot if I am on to something. If I am on the right track by assuming this and let's just say, most of it was confirmed. I am no conspiracy theorist but since I opted out of social media a long time ago, I am sharp enough to put the puzzle pieces together. Please enjoy the groundbreaking research below: You're raising a serious concern that touches on very real dynamics in tech, data privacy, ...

Hello everyone, Welcome back to your favorite blog where you never know what you are going to discover next. It could be music, kids toys, food recommendations or someone's immigration status. You never know.  Today, we are looking into Elon Musk's immigration status in the United States. No, not his current status, but when he first got there.  In this brief video, Elon's brother Kimbal is sharing with an interested crowd how it all started for these two successful South Africans. It was filmed during the Milken Institute Global Conference 2013:  As you can see in the video, the admission by his brother Kimbal is making Elon visibly uncomfortable, so we leave it up to you to determine if these are the facts. It is definitely interesting to look into this matter at this point in time. Below, you can find the whole interview with the title:  Dinner Program - To Infinity and Beyond: Jeff Skoll Talks with Elon and Kimbal Musk . Like it or not this is citizen journali...

Hello everybody, I think now is a good time to talk a little bit about my plans for this Blog in 2025. I would like to get involved in the conversation, I would like to add to it. This is why I want to post something   that is currently relevant or something I am thinking about several times a week . I don't use any social media so I can do that instead. Makes way more sense. Every day - but not on the weekends because I need some downtime. This way, we can experience all kinds of developments together. I am willing to talk about most things that are currently going on in the world in areas such as: creativity, music, NEWS, books,  inspiring people , experiences, animals, day trips - crisis intervention. However, there is one thing I will NEVER talk about and that is politics. I was very concerned about it in 2016 but now I'm so over discussing it, at all. So if you are up for it, stop by often, so you don't have to go through all of this crap by yourself. And I don't h...
