During these dark times, I noticed that I missed your voice and commentary which brought some light into the world for me. I appreciate the video like always, just felt a bit sadder not having those parts to look forward to. Thank you for all your hard work, you are a beacon of light amongst lesser men! Never forget that!

Hey Joe. I'm sad you've gone silent. I love your videos for the banter and the education. Without them, it falls toward the other ASMR content that I pass right over. I play videos in the background while to do my daily tasks and your lack of audio saddens me. I know the world has gotten you down. There is always a fight to be had against one wrong or another; one disease or another... if we all fell silent in protest, who will be our champions? Find your voice. Some of us need to hear it

Respect your protest and your silence speaks volumes but I think your gentle wit and wisdom is greater. Nature, it is said, abhors a vacuum, so if we are silent, that silence will be filled by voices with less good intent than ours. The resto, was excellent considering the crust you started with. Best to you and your family.

Your "Silent Protest" came in loud and clear - with messages of solidarity, inspiration, creativity, and passion. Thank you for using your work and platform to convey your compassion, with a beautiful restoration of a Nakba lost in time, with subtle use of colour, images, and a sensitive attention to detail. While imperfect, the final result is what we hope would be a beautiful metaphor for a real solution that works. Deep respect, Joe. Your creativity is astounding

Joe, may the timeless dove of peace shine down on you, your family and loved ones, and ours as well. Especially thinking of all those immersed in tragedy and loss, who are in desperate need whilst suffering incalculable grief and pain. I write that as just an ordinary ex-military bloke who spent a year in Bosnia at the height of the terrible conflict and dealt with tragedy every single day. Judging by the comments here, I feel we much appreciate your silent mark of respect for humanity, and our sadness for inhumanity. You deal with time, which thanks to your skills, is easy to measure, but impossible to retrieve. But let's all metaphorically click that hacking lever, pause time and dwell on the consequences of our actions, the immense suffering they may cause, and our crying need for that dove of peace with the olive twig in its beak to bring hope. Tempus fugit, so we must not waste it. Thank you Joe for helping us reflect, and for breathing life, beauty and dignity back into that battered old Oris. 🙏 🤲 🤗
