This I remember - dad often brought forbidden press in Polish & English, sometimes sewn inside his jacket, we all were reading forbidden books passionately. Yes - CIA helped then. Perhaps now it is a time to return the favour: www.theguardian.com/books/2025/f...

Technology has made me exhausted - this is coming from someone working in tech for over 25 years. How one navigates environmental & ethical concerns of social or AI tech? How one stop getting sucked in into so much bullshit and repetitive reposting? Where is a space for quiet & inspiring dialogue?

It's not a demolition site it's a mass grave. It's not a demolition site it's a crime scene. It's not a demolition site its a homeland. It's not a demolition site it's Palestine. It's not a demolition site it's a genocide.

In May I hosted in my studio few DEFRA scientists & civil servants, who enacted scenarios of UK coasts' floods, prompted by my query why oceans hardly feature in policy making. I asked them about their view of ocean - now & in 50 years. How to Navigate Unregulated Waters.

Aggressively framing climate solutions in way that appeases racists, nationalists and climate deniers results in two things:
- Those people continue hating the technologies as much as they ever did
- You now have a right-wing climate movement

You never dive alone, grouped with buddies. You give them permission to safe keep your life while taking responsibilities for precious theirs. The bond & intimacy is formed, bubble of friendship floating in depth of a sea. Such wonderful community. This is for #scuba folks from last week :) #diving

I wish i could stay a little longer, my soul feeling similarly delicate & faint in a face of what awaits in global North with dark powers unleashed.
I am scared for all vulnerable earthlings, i wish i could protect them all.
