A reminder for these times.

Ukraine is Europe!
We stand by Ukraine.

We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor.

Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.

Five Failures in the Oval Office (video) America hurt itself badly today.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

Neo-Nazis targeted a majority-Black town. Locals launched an armed watch. Residents of Lincoln Heights, Ohio, have organized armed guards after a neo-Nazi march and the spread of Ku Klux Klan leaflets rocked the Cincinnati suburb.

For weeks, men carrying rifles have guarded the roads leading into Lincoln Heights, Ohio, stopping and questioning those who approach.

The men, some of whom wear masks and body armor, are residents of this small, majority-Black town. They say they’re protecting their own. And they’re on edge.

Gints Zilbalodis Discusses ‘Flow’ and the Movie’s Oscar Nominations Gints Zilbalodis’s “Flow” is the first Latvian film to get Academy Award nods, for animated feature and international feature. The director talks about the film’s journey.

I was just in a party in LA and there was a cat and a dog who looked very familiar.

While we worked on Flow the cat didn't have a name. We just called it the cat. I've heard from multiple people that they think that it's name is Flow. People have even named their cats Flow now! So I think we can call the cat Flow!

The most frequent question I get asked is about this scene. To me it's a lot more important to create an emotional experience rather than sending a message. It's something I can't explain with words. If I could, I wouldn't need to make this film.

We established Dream Well Studio in Latvia for Flow. This room is the whole studio. Usually about 4-5 people were working at the same time including me. I was quite anxious about being in charge of a team, never having worked in any other studios before, but it worked out.

This has potential for Latvian international introvert trademark. Being on your own with dog, eating an apple, grey/wood interior, not talking even when you are recognised as TOP5 in the world.
