From Reuters 🇩🇪 Germany's interior minister on Wednesday backed Berlin’s decision to strip a man of his citizenship for supporting Hamas, saying naturalised citizens should forfeit their nationality when they are found not to uphold German values.

The decision comes as Germany tightens immigration and citizenship rules amid a debate about who belongs in the country and the rise of the far-right.

Good Idea: Detox from everyday distractions

Beatriz Flamini, a Spanish mountaineer, lived alone in a cave for 500 days as an isolation experiment. She avoided all human contact, kept video diaries, struggled with time loss, hallucinations and psychological strain, briefly exited due to equipment failure, then returned and finished the goal.
Flamini’s story shows how stepping away from everyday distractions can sharpen focus, build resilience, and help you figure out what really matters. Even short periods of intentional solitude (like a digital detox, a solo hike, or a quiet weekend) can give you space to reflect and gain perspective.

Planning ahead is key! Preparing physically, mentally, and logistically makes challenges manageable and safe. Documenting your experience, through journaling or notes, helps track progress and notice subtle changes in yourself.
