Preserved Scandal: The History of Bob Guccione and Kodak Film

QUARAN-TINDER: A Portrait Series of Thai Youth on Dating Apps During the Pandemic
As the world begins to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s becoming clear just how hard young adults have been hit. Many were just starting out on their educational and career paths when the pandemic hit, and the resulting lockdowns have left them feeling isolated and disconnected from their peers. Even now, three years on, it’s clear that the lockdown had a severe impact on personal development. For those who were just starting out at the beginning of the pandemic, they may have missed out on some of the most important experiences of their lives from their first day of college to finding lifelong friends. These experiences are critical to personal growth and development of important life skills. Additionally, the pandemic has taken a toll on mental health, something that policymakers are only beginning to address as COVID-19 becomes endemic.

I've been post-crossing as werewegian for over ten years now. In case you don't know, postcrossing.com is a great website where you send a postcard to a randomly generated address around the world, and when it arrives and is registered, you in turn receive a postcard from a third random party. It's a fun hobby and one of the reasons I like it is that as well as tourist, Royal Mail or shop bought postcards, I can send postcards made from my own photographs. I make these at moo.com.
