Pegado a tu boca mi desorden.
Mi vasto querer.
Lo incomposible entrando en orden.
Pegada a tu boca, pero descomedida
Ardua
Constructor de ilusiones te examino ávida
Como si fueras a morir pegado a mi boca.
Como si fuera a nacer
Y tú fueras el día magnánimo
Te sorbo extremada a la luz del amanecer..

Talvez eu seja
o sonho de mim mesma.
Criatura-ninguém.
Espelhismo de outra.
Tão em sigilo e extrema.
Tão sem medida.
Densa e clandestina.
Hilda Hilst.

The amount of serotonin it gave me to watch this grandma react to her new galaxy light 🥺
It’s dark in here- *gasps in excitement* OHH SARAH!
OHH SARAH! *giggles like a little kid* OHhHhH!!
My ceiling is filled with blue lights… and stars and everything!!
OH Sarah! I can go to bed at night looking at this. OHHHH it’s beautiful!
ppl forget the innocence of the elderly… if there was ever a glimpse of them as a child, this is it
“I can go to bed at night looking at this!” 🥺✨
I love grandmothers. I miss mine every single day. This is beautiful.
I have one! I’ll deadass be in my room with it on listening to music and disassociating for hours 😂
It has a buncha colors but these are my faves
Purple bc insanely gorgeous 100/10 just beautiful
Then the light blue/green makes me feel like I’m underwater, 11/10 love to imagine I’m drowning
And then dark blue bc it feels like I’m in space, 10/10 would love to go there and stop breathing
@haileyhurts where did you get it?
I would love to cry my eyes out in a room this pretty
@yanderrre you can just go to galaxylight.com or if you dont feel like typing: shorturl.link/galaxy
My cat trips balls when I use mine 😂 the stars are lasers so she goes nuts thinking it’s a 1000 laser light toys!! Still cracks me up every time
Same energy

(12/12) “One morning I went to photograph a protest in Queens. It was a political protest of some sort, and it was an angry crowd. I think many of the attendees were anti-immigrant. One man got right in my face, waved his poster, and started chanting: ‘Go Home, Go Home.’ In that moment it became clear to me: I do have a home. This is not my home, but I do have a home. After that day I still worked hard on my schoolwork. But most of my energy went toward building a library in Ghana. I began to speak with booksellers about my vision, and many of them became eager to help. They’d give me discounts. They’d tell their friends about me. I started getting calls from galleries and private collectors, asking if they could make a donation. Sometimes it was hundreds of books at a time. Sometimes thousands. I filled up my entire apartment with books, then I rented a storage unit. Then another. Then another. I’ve collected 30,000 books so far. Enough to build the largest photo library in Africa. The books are currently in a shipping container en route to Ghana. But as my collection has grown, so has my dream. I want to build more than just a library. I want to build an entire learning center. A home for photography in Ghana. I’ve researched the properties. I’ve spoken to architects. I’ve reached out to the appropriate ministries. And I’ve even chosen the name: ‘Dikan.’ Which in our Asante language means: ‘To take the lead.’ The centerpiece will be the library. But there will also be a lecture hall where photographers from all over the world can come and teach. African photographers, especially. Who can teach African kids to tell African stories. There will never be another Paul Ninson. Who has to leave home, and feel this way, just to learn how to tell stories. Everyone will be welcome at Dikan. There will never be someone standing at the gate. No person will be too poor, or too inexperienced, to learn how to photograph. Even young kids will be welcome. There will be a room just for them. Where they can learn to photograph. And look at National Geographic magazines. And watch videos, about animals. I’ve even chosen the name for that too. We will call it ‘Ella’s Room.’”
