Interview with a UK photographer and filmmaker, Edward Matthews, who went to Ukraine to help charities document their war effort. It also contains part of a documentary he made which is a very touching interview with a Ukrainian fire fighter.

There's so much going on that I can't post disapproving posts for every single thing. So here's just one blanket one.
It's all wrong. You know, everything. All of it. Not just in the US, but it's happening, or starting to, everywhere. The rule of law is abandoned and people are shipped off to uncontrolled foreign prisons. People's right to be who they are is removed. Institutions to help and better other people are disbanded.
We need to get back to caring about other people. Care about the next generation's ability to get educated. No matter the skin colour, no matter the social class, care about whether people can buy food. Care about people getting a fair trial. Care about people whether they are your gender or not, or have the gender you think they have, or even have a gender.
Care about other people, no matter what kind of 'other' they are.
This is an interesting concept. That maybe when you as a content creator, or any other creative person, feel like you're stuck in a rut and don't know what too create next, maybe you're too stuck in your own head. Maybe you need to allow yourself to be inspired by others. Read a book. Listen to music.

For those in the Netherlands who follow F1 but don't want to pay a lot of money to Viaplay or F1 TV, and therefore can't see it live: due to a deal signed only yesterday it will be on delayed broadcast, for free, on Ziggo channel 13 (so not the normal channel 14). This means that today's qualifying session is repeated at 20:30 tonight and tomorrow's race at 21:15, tomorrow of course. This may not be in your tv guides yet.
The usual summary broadcasts on Ziggo Sport and NPO 1 have been cancelled for this year.
Here's the "origin story" of Roxy Furman. She's a zoologist who makes the most gorgeous wildlife documentaries.

in reply to Gidi Kroon • •Another thing I'm thinking when watching her channel: why is she so worried about viewing numbers? She doesn't need viewing numbers to be an interesting channel, she already is. Ok, so only 816 people watched her previous video. I'm one of them. And I liked it. And even if nobody watches them, who cares, they're still interesting and worthy videos.
Sometimes I post photos on Instagram. I like taking them. The new analytics on Instagram show that these reach between 2 and 5 accounts. So I've long given up doing that for the numbers. I just like taking them and knowing they're out there or somewhere.
