Beautiful series of images by Eduard Pechuël-Loesche from an 1888 book on the strange skies produced the world-over after the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa.
These images also feature in a glorious double-spread in our book AFFINITIES, an exploration of echoes and resonances across two millennia of visual culture.

Hi there 💛
I hope this message finds you well. I'm reaching out with a heavy heart and a hopeful spirit.
My name is Mohamed. My family and I lost our home to the war, and we’re doing our best to start again from nothing. We’ve created a GoFundMe to help rebuild—not just the walls, but the life we once knew.
If you have a moment, please check out my pinned post. Even a simple reblog or share can make a world of difference. And if you’re in a place to give, even a small donation would mean more than I can ever express.
Your kindness, your voice, your support—it truly matters.
Thank you for reading this. I’m so deeply grateful. 🙏

Hey 💌 I’m Saja — a mother trying to hold onto hope through days that feel impossibly heavy.
I know you probably see a lot online, but if you could take just a moment… I’d be so grateful.
💫 A reblog of my pinned post could help our story reach someone who cares.
🌿 And if you’re in a place to give, even a small donation could bring comfort to my daughter and help us feel safe again.
@sajagz, thank you for listening.
Even gentle support creates strength.
From one heart to another — thank you 🤍
$6million dollars appraised in peace strategies or this?
i am tagged in this post, this is my last interaction with a similar account, how should i proceed?
From the heart of unimaginable suffering, I want to sincerely thank everyone who has supported my family 🙏🏻
Right now, famine is hitting us harder than ever, my heart cries whenever I go to the market to buy any basic necessities! The prices are crazy, and most days my children survive on just bread Hunger and thirst are destroying us, and cooking on fire increases our suffering unbearably! Severe eye and chest sensitivity, in addition to constant stomach pain due to the type of food and the way it is cooked.
All this while we flee from one place to another in fear of bombing, bullets, and imminent danger! I cannot describe what I feel, but it is a feeling beyond exhaustion! Despite the exhaustion, your support gives us strength and I hope you will not let us down
If you can donate, please do so, or at least help us by sharing, so we can reach those who can
Your kindness truly keeps us going

the perpetual conflict is an abuse on all, that is to say, inflicts psychological damage on the world at large, aside from those who may cheer its continuance
at most insignificant, there is current personal experience of "deleterious and/or adverse effects" given its existence, though i still have all my limbs
land is not to be owned; unfortunately, it is perpetually horrifically misdrawn and titled, in this place that was delineated, traced, dictated, and designed ahead of most of our arrival here
any increase in what appears to be an unnecessary death toll, or slaughter of children, or of allowing children to be slaughtered, or not doing everything to escape with said children with this most grievous misfortune, is clear depth of field in watching this exercise in mutilation and craft of mangle,
states and temporaries, flows, bordered, porous, or otherwise, require freedom of movement and destination provisions,
at once appears the tattered sculpting of an emaciated symbol, now edging on the despicable to inhabit
a derogatory swivel for terrain i understand is intended to be considered home or sanctuary for many, internally and externally, and has been said to be "holy" by some
this is all to say,
in full secular, unsentimental consideration, what is the defense, pragmatics, or reason,
that/for any person may find themselves worthy to walk on such land?
and for what purpose?
