Looking for a poem with my camera

Come as you are …

Thank you Dubai. 🧡 In a world obsessed with differences, Dubai reminds you how much we actually have in common. I was born in Russia, spent my teenage years in Germany, and for the past five years I have called Dubai home. To me, Dubai represents a place where your religion, nationality, or background simply doesn’t matter. You can say where you’re originally from, and people understand that your country of origin is not your identity …. it’s just part of your journey. You are simply a person who happens to carry a certain passport.

To me, Dubai/ UAE represents a place where your religion, nationality, or background simply doesn’t matter. You can say where you’re originally from, and people understand that your country of origin is not your identity … it’s just part of your journey. You are simply a person who happens to carry a certain passport. This place taught me that people from every corner of the world can live side by side in peace. Sometimes a city shows you what the world could look like.

“Whenever the United States wants to bring peace, they find oil.”

In the age of the internet and AI, it’s fascinating how many people still trust influencers aka. clickbait monkeys 🐒 for information optimized for attention, not TRUTH.

The beauty of bitchat UAE 🇦🇪

X is full of algorithm-trained clickbait monkeys fighting for their crumbs of attention, until their focus jumps to the next “current thing.” An amusing takeaway from watching the latest Middle East developments.

If Bitcoin disappeared tomorrow, who would you still be?

Culture is moved by outliers.
