As a creative I think it’s so important to create simply because you want to. It doesn’t have to be monetized. It doesn’t have to be sold. Simply creating for your soul is so so vital.

Palestinian students at Otto von Guericke University in Magdeburg, Germany received an email from the school that they’ve been recategorized as “stateless” due to governmental “changes in the statistical requirements.”
