the humanity of the AIDS crisis: the ward by gideon mendel
colorized by me
Never forget đłď¸âđđ
OP you did a beautiful job colourising these shots
Notice how OP says âcolorized?â
I want to remind you this was the eighties. THE EIGHTIES. Color cameras existed. Color VIDEO CAMERAS existed.
Someone put these in black and white to make them seem long ago and far away.
OP is returning them to their proper place in history: ONLY TWO GENERATIONS AGO.
thatâs not fair to gideon mendel, the photographer who took those photos in 1993. he took them in black-and-white even though color cameras were available, yes, but not to âmake them seem long ago and far awayâ. he was photographing in black-and-white so they would be taken seriously.
mendel is still documenting and lifting up the voices of people who live with hiv/aids in the project âthrough positive eyesâ.Â
if mendel hadnât taken these photographs, we wouldnât have a record of these patients and the ends of their lives at all. it was extremely unusual for aids wards to let photographers in, and the patients took a risk in letting mendel photograph them and their loved ones.Â
rest in peace, andrĂŠ, steven, and john.
is anyone gonna point out how David enters the room saying âhiâ when heâs supposed to be in the presence of the Sun Summoner for the first time instead his attention is only on Genya because I think about it a lot
EVISCERATED
For those that donât know, Brockâs mom and dad both bailed on their kids to go dreamchasing for a bit and he had to look after NINE siblings on his own
In other words,
SHOTS FIRED
Brock also just kind of left those same 9 siblings so he could travel the world with a 12 year old and his electric rat
Brock literally hung tight until his dad came home, gave said dad a stern shit-talking about how much of a worthless deadbeat he was to his face, refused to set one foot out of Pewter City until he was sure the dude would stay and take care of his damn kids, and then left to follow the dreams he was never allowed to follow because he was too busy cleaning up his parents goddamn mistakes.
But, like, go off, I guess.
If the one in the first pic is his mom, why does she look younger than him?
Because sheâs not the one who had to raise 9 kids.

concrete meaning "not abstract" predates concrete meaning, you know, the material, by about two hundred years or so
guy who invented concrete was like âthis is the least abstract thing Iâve ever seenâ

welcome to the grishaverse.

âNina knew that look. It came after the shipwreck, when the tide moved against you and the sky had gone dark. It was the first sight of land, the hope of shelter and even salvation that might await you on a distant shore.â
GENYA SAFIN & DAVID KOSTYK | 1.05 -Â Show Me Who You Are
the ending of ruin & rising is staggeringly staggeringly good. it is the only conclusion that could ever happen from the story leigh was trying to tell. and if you donât see that, if you still believe there was an ending which didnât result in alina losing her powers, then we read entirely different books.
the whole central theme of the trilogy is that of power corruption, and how even if it is sought after with good intention, âabsolute power corrupts absolutelyâ. no grisha is meant to have more than one amplifier. it is a level of power a human cannot withstand. by seeking out a third amplifier, alina has so so much power that itâs completely unbearable. she describes herself like an exploding sun. it has bent the laws and rules of the world, and so to balance itself out again, that power leaves alina and redistributes itself amongst hundreds of others. this is also why alina was always going to end up with mal, there was never any debate there, because he is the only person who actually challenges her on whether she should be seeking out this level of power and twisting the laws of reality in quite the way she does
alina keeping hold of that much power would not be a badass âgirlbossâ moment. the whole point leigh is making is that all actions have consequences, and a price has to be paid for that level of power. it isnât misogynistic for alina to lose her powers. itâs realistic. it is the only possible conclusion to the story leigh has been telling all along, and the only way you canât see that is if you have been playing a self-insert game with alina instead of actually grasping the story leigh is telling. alinaâs story is a line between wanting that power, and wanting the peaceful life of love and calm. but the more she seeks the amplifiers, the more it eats away at her mind, the more she has to anchor herself time and time again to remember who she truly is, and the culmination of all of this is she loses her powers. having our heroes pay real prices for actions they make, and facing consequences, is not being misogynistic and itâs not being âagainst powerâ. itâs about reality, itâs about balance. the introduction of merzost by leigh should be an obvious sign of this point she is making, that power corrupts! power is not necessarily bad, but becoming entirely power hungry does corrupt you, and there are very real consequences for it.
and at the end of the story⌠alina is happy. she ends the trilogy happy. it is bittersweet. but she has the life she actually wanted all along. and itâs also important to bear in mind that malâs ending is just as bittersweet. he too has the life he wanted all along, with alina. but, like alina, he has lost his powers too - and arguably for mal, this is even worse, because he has had these tracking abilities for his whole life. both of them paid the price for in alinaâs case taking more power than one person can physically have, and in malâs case enabling that power to be taken. once again, that theme of âeverything has a costâ comes back - just as power can be sought, but it has a cost, so alina and mal have the life they wanted and chose. but that too came at a cost.
if your complaint of the ending of ruin & rising is that you think itâs sad alina lost her powers (which, same! we all do! it doesnât mean it doesnât make sense for her to lose them) and that she should have kept her powers and ended up alone, then we read entirely different books and you self-inserted too much. the framing of the grisha trilogy is crystal clear. it is a story of power and power corruption, framed by the unbreakable love between alina and mal. that is the story leigh bardugo told. if you didnât see it that way, thatâs on you.
