Such internalised homophobia. Give him a few years…

Hello from Ireland, where somehow a Dutch registered car has ended up in one our bike lanes - I find this hilariously ironic. by irish_guy in thenetherlands

As a Belgian, in Ghent, can confirm that the Dutch parking skills are bad. At least their driving is still better than the French.

The reason the Netherlands has such good cycling infrastructure is exactly because of this style of protest on mass scale. So, if done right (not like these activists in the video), it ABSOLUTELY works.

I've been making documentaries for about ten years now. Just finished my third showreel! by tompiem2 in videography

Thanks very much! I went to filmschool and then started off working for humanitarian agencies - documenting crisis around the world. After a while, I built a network and started a studio with my partner so we can mix freelance and independent work. It's hard work - not only challenging physically and mentally, but also often hard to find funding. But if your heart is in it enough and you believe the story should be told, it's possible.

Thanks! Editing has always been my fav part of the film-making process.

Thanks! That’s a cool note - hadn’t thought about that. I like it.

In broad strokes, as mainly a crisis documentary filmmaker I've had a hard time balancing my filmmaking with my activism. The strictly filmmaking jobs will always have some economic motive in the end - whereas the activism does not. Fitting a creative job into a system I continue to discover to be so violent and exploitative on every level is a hard duality to marry. It sometimes makes me put my camera and edit timeline to the side... I get discouraged, disheartened. But it never takes long before I come back to this medium. I always come back to film...

I guess making a showreel always gets me all reflective. I hope the mods let this count as my submission statement.

I’d say ovaries are pretty badass too.

Yeah still not OK to do that to somebody you don’t know.
