I'm about to receive my copies of The World Aflame in a few days and I may be already crying just thinking about it.
You have no idea how much work goes into creating a book like this. Dan and I have to go through 5,000-10,000 photos every time, to have a final selection of only 200.

We spent 2 years working on TCOT, and 2 years working on TWAFL.

And there's a lot more to come!
By the way, you can pre-order on

Thank you! x
(Coming out in the US in August. May in the UK and Netherlands)

While I'm not working on any new sports-related projects, check out these photos taken during my exhibition at the German Football Museum in Dortmund!

Special guests were Hans-Joachim Watzke (CEO of Borussia Dortmund) and Klaus Fischer (German former footballer and coach).
Three more...
This project was made in collaboration with Fussball Bild. You can see some of the colorized photos here: bild.de/wa/ll/bild-de/…

Congo before and after colonization.

In the period from 1885 to 1908, many well-documented atrocities were perpetrated in the Congo Free State which, at the time, was a colony under the personal rule of King Leopold II of the Belgians.
Failure to meet the rubber collection quotas was punishable by death. Meanwhile, the Force Publique were required to provide the hand of their victims as proof when they had shot and killed someone.

The rubber quotas were in part paid off in chopped-off hands.
In theory, each right hand proved a killing. In practice, to save ammunition soldiers sometimes "cheated" by simply cutting off the hand and leaving the victim to live or die.

genius lawyer bakugou who only takes difficult cases and wrongfully convicted “serial killer” kirishima who has been dubbed as manipulative and sociopathic because of how charming he is
bakugou co owns a law firm with midoriya who insists bakugou leave this case alone. it’s dangerous, especially with how ridiculously famous kirishima has become since he was arrested for the dozens of murders.
half of the country hates him and the other half is obsessed with him, midoriya is more than worried about what that could mean for the lawyer who accepts his case.

"I for one say you file for divorce after Sarang's birthday party. Then sue for full custody." Namjoon suggested. Guk nodded, echoing Namjoon's sentiment.

"She deserves to have loving parents. Maybe that's why her biological father doesn't know and now this."
#TaeKookAU;

"I'm not saying I'm the best parent, hell I'm barely around half the time, but at least I try to be a part of her life. Iseul stopped trying the moment I asked Jeongguk to work full time." Tae rolled his eyes staring up at the ceiling.

"Appa...eomma no wuv me?"
#TaeKookAU;

All eyes went to the little girl in Guk's arms who was staring at her dad with wide eyes and a wobbling bottom lip.

"Is it because Sawang no listen eomma?" She sniffled. "Sawang sowwy, but she no tweat Googie-bear wike he sick. It not wong to wuv boys! Samchon do."

Thinking about this whole 'merit' and the 'greedy, lazy teacher' bit. According to a @OCT_OEEO report from 2018, almost 1/5 of accredited teachers drop out of the profession in the first 5 years in ON.

They suggest this possibly has to do with job insecurity. But we cannot discount the fact that Education is a tough job. Devalued by many.

We are yelled at, hit, spit on, kicked, bitten... sometimes by parents and other community adults as well.
We all have had excellent teachers - those who gave of themselves and reached us when no one else could. Mine was Mr. Jones from @MartingroveCI. He introduced me to #coding and opened a whole new world to me.

But I do not judge all EDUs by that one incredible person.

The following days since winning the student council electing and being sworn into the tresorial seat were amazing. Jaemin felt a little more powerful than he already was.
A lot of his juniors would always greet him every time he passes by, but the number of them drastically increased in just a short amount of time.
As expected, those little minions are all over him, which means he has more people to control and manipulate into doing things that would benefit him. However, there’s been one person that’s bothering him: Lee Jeno.

Guuuuyyyyys I'm sure I'm not the first one to think of this, but what if like... When Connor has nightmares, he doesn't just *experience* them, he projects them into household electronics by accident?
So like, he has bad dreams over all the shitty times he was hurt or killed, and Hank wakes up to static, voices, gunshots on his TV, blurry and poorly defined first person images. He legit thinks he's being haunted until he figures it out.
He catches on when he realizes all the memories are bad, that he's in some of them, that Connor's voice crackling over the speakers is closer than all the others. He wakes Connor up, freaked the hell out, and just holds him tightly enough to make him creak from the pressure.
