>> Were Elon Musk and His Brother Illegal Immigrants in the United States? πŸ‡ΏπŸ‡¦ πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ Kimbal Musk Says So - In This Video! πŸ’πŸΌ‍♀️πŸ“°

Image
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...

>> πŸ’‘ LEGO’s Bold Creative Ideas: Stranger Things, Twilight and Avengers in Bricks Bring Iconic Pop Culture Moments to Life!

Image
Hello again everybody, Welcome back to this blog that is bursting with creativity and ideas yet again! Today, for example, we are diving into the different themes Lego has taken on when releasing new sets like Twilight, the German national football team, botanicals, Stranger Things, Harry Potter, the Natural History Museum and Avengers, including the world famous gauntlet, for which Thanos unfortunately successfully compiled all the stones. I was quite surprised by the variety they release and this is just to name a few.  I think these sets make great gift ideas if you pick the one that fits the recipient best, based on their field of interest. There is always time for a little bit of romance  with grumpy Edward and moody Bella on the piano. Twilight for example. You will probably remember the movie series, the books and the hype around the whole thing. Who else but LEGO would create a set of the Cullen house - years later?! It was just released in February 2025! Close to...

>> Delicious London Restaurant Recommendation: Pho - Fresh Flavors and Authentic Vietnamese Dishes 🍜

Image
Hey everyone, Welcome back! I am not currently in London but I have a nice food recommendation for you. I think this is a chain with several locations in town. Is it ok to miss London food options the most about this whole city? 😊 Pho is a stylish, modern eatery serving authentic Vietnamese noodle soups and street food in a relaxed atmosphere. Chicken Pho - This was my super delicious and healthy lunch that day There was one located near my previous office. Once I discovered it, it was hard not to go there at least once a week. Oh and I miss you too, Chipotle. Let's all agree that Chipotle used to be much better, but it's still good. Fun fact: In Canada, I used to live a 5-minute walk from Chipotle. I made use of that. Successful living. πŸ˜ƒ

>> OSCARS ✨ Highlight Of The Event: Respect Where It Is Due - This Performance Was Epic!

Image
Hallo everyone, Welcome back to the most versatile blog there is. As you probably know by now, we absolutely love creativity, magical things, music and talent. The opening performance at this years Oscars ceremony had it all. Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande presented a Wicked -themed medley that culminated (brand new word for me I just looked up) in a duet of 'Defying Gravity.' I saw ' Wicked' in the theatre in London in 2023. It was quite good and I was moved by this song back then as well because it just is a great composition but the wizard was way too scary for the children in the audience - and me!! As for the movie, I didn't want to watch it at first, but I was overruled by the acquaintances I was with. I wanted to see t he Muppet Christmas Carol ! That is an essential classic - every Christmas. Then the cinema could not show it because of a technical error/its format being from the 90`s. So it was between Paddington Bear in Peru and Wicked in the end. And I ...

>> How Social Media Is Destroying Society πŸ“± Down With Big Tech πŸ§‘πŸ½‍πŸ’» Gatekeep Your Input At All Costs πŸ’‘

Image
Welcome back to your favorite blog about critical thinking, as it turns out. We are on a mission to inform and inspire. Another good YouTube recommendation came our way. I have never considered YouTube to be a part of social media. YouTube started in 2006 and is a video platform. Ok, shorts are annoying, adhering to the pressure of providing short form content too. Today's featured video is called:  How Social Media Slowly Ruins Society & What You Can Do  by content creator Mikey Posada. We think it's encouraging to see some emerging YouTubers demonstrating critical thinking,  despite growing up in an era dominated by screens. Check out the video here:  Especially this part about input is interesting, because I realized that I am 'g atekeeping my input at all costs' since quite some time now. I do not use any social media, I keep news/negativity input to an absolute minimum and try to fill my brain with things that interest me, content that is uplifting or I ca...
