Once or twice a month I will send out an advertisement free newsletter with some thoughts, interesting links, and post updates.

People who subscribe to the newsletter will also receive a password which will change in every newsletter, providing access to a protected blog and unlisted video page only visible for subscribers of the newsletter.

By having a subscribers-only page I'm trying to protect myself more from hateful people who want to attack me. Even though privacy and a safe-place on the internet is an illusion, in a way it makes me feel more secure to share certain things behind a wall, because I have more tools that way to figure out who attacks me in case someone does.

Subscribing to and using PhotoandGrime.com is free and your information will not be shared with third parties; unless you violate the law and send me (death)threats for example. In which case, you can safely assume I will provide any information I can to the police. If you're a good person, you have nothing to worry about though :).

WELCOME TO PHOTOANDGRIME!

What it means? Photography & Film, and a whole lot of other bullshit. I didn't want to go with the word shit, so I settled for grime instead; a nice way of mentioning something dirty.

LITERATURE

I like to write. If you like to read, here are the 3 categories I mostly write in: 

INSIDE THE SYSTEM

Reality. Mental health stories. Opening up the conversation about the topic, and the accountability we can put on our changing society regarding it. Trigger warning.

Where all the metaphors go. Blurring the line between fiction and reality. A selection of my spoken word videos, and poetry. Sometimes simple, sometimes experimental.

I hear the snide voice of Exurb1a through the phone. I've never before heard such a cold voice directly aimed at me. Sure, I've had arguments with people before, but hearing this tone come out of someone's mouth, is definitely new to me.

I feel dizzy and suddenly crave fresh air. I don't want to be here anymore.
"Can I have a copy of the police-rapport?" I ask.

What can we learn about society through Kim Kardashian? A lot, actually. In this blog I will talk about female empowerment, and the war against it. The enemy? It's not uncommon she has a vagina.
