The Invisible - (2007) dir. David S. Goyer

I want whatever gender he had in this movie

[astriferias]

there was this movie, probably like 15 years ago at this point? (ew), called the invisible and the premise was fucking phenomenal. the execution was corny and the story wasn't that great but the concept was *chefs kiss*

it was a fucked up love story slash supernatural teen drama (tm) about two kids who went to the same high school. the girl is from ~the wrong side of the tracks~ and the boy is from a comfortable and supportive "good" family. the girl and her friends end up jumping the boy one night, and they believe they killed him. her ~extra bad crowd~ friends go back and hide his body deep in the woods somewhere or some shit.

except he's not dead - he comes to learn he's in limbo, essentially a ghost walking among the living. no one can see him or hear him.

except her.

she's wracked with guilt over what happened bc she's Actually A Good Person (tm). she ends up becoming infatuated with him, trying to learn about her. meanwhile, the boy in limbo is following her, hoping to learn what happened and save himself (iirc he has to solve his own murder or something to wake up? idk that's where it lost the plot for me). he learns she can hear him, and he figures out how to communicate with her, and once she realizes he's alive she wants to save him.

i don't remember all the ~drama~ but in the end his body is found and he's taken to a hospital where he's in a coma. the girl is trying to get to him and gets shot by her ~bad friend~. she makes it to the hospital and to the boy's room

and she climbs into the bed with him and he's starting to regain consciousness and wake up??? except shE'S DYING ON THE BED NEXT TO HIM. they get like a brief moment together and then she dies and he fully wakes up.

anyway imagine this concept but done correctly. a love story about guilt, about hauntings, about empathy and forgiveness. where they meet in the the middle, in limbo, for a few fleeting minutes as one dies and the other rejoins the world of the living. it has sO MUCH POTENTIAL.

When it comes to doing something about what is wrong in the world, Jesus is best known for his fondness for the minute, the invisible, the quiet, the slow – yeast, salt, seeds, light. And manure.

"what i’m really trying to paint is the invisible. the identifiable things in my paintings are really signposts to describing the invisible relationships and components that surround them" ... charles yuen

"so many books, so little time" ... frank zappa

"recently i’ve been interested in microwaves and radio waves and magnetic rays, as metaphors for social emotional cultural things. there are invisible forces that course through us and influence how we behave" ... charles yuen

"but for my own part, if a book is well written, i always find it too short" ... jane austen

"there is a meandering quality to the work, which is a critique of rationality. i think the rational is not the end-all in terms of a description of reality. i view my paintings as being iconoclastic, in that i don’t think they are endorsing the popular culture; i hope they are a critique. i want my paintings to be non-goal-oriented, not logical in our pragmatic daily lives — poetic" ... charles yuen

Some people don’t want to hear this but sometimes accessibility is not sustainable or eco-friendly. Disabled people sometimes need straws, or pre-made meals in plastic containers, or single-use items. Just because you can work with your foods in their least processed and packaged form doesn’t mean everyone else can.

"Don't just throw ripped jeans away, you can repair them using these 10 cute Visible Mending techniques!!" unfortunately my friend the first point of failure for every single pair of jeans i have owned in my life has been the Crotch and Ass. Knees: fine, cuffs: fine; but 3 years in, and all that stands between the world and my astronaut-patterned taint is 0.5µm of denim worn so thin that every squat threatens to tear it to shreds like wet toilet paper. If the Tiktok craft community could figure out a way to resurrect jeans afflicted in such a way that doesn't involve adding a whole ass buttpatch like some sort of inverse assless chaps situation then that'd be great

Since the Paralympics are happening and I’m seeing all sorts of people saying “See? This person doesn’t let their disability stop them!”

I would like you to remember that Paralympions are OLYMPIC LEVEL ATHLETES.

How would it feel if I compared your output to that of a literal olympic athlete and used that to justify not helping you or giving you what you need?

Oh, well Michael Phelps and Simone Biles can do it - why can’t you?

Thats how you sound.

Just a reminder that people who still live with their parents as adults deserve respect and for you to stop being ableist. There are multiple reasons someone could still live with their parents! From invisible to visible disabilities, finance issues, and more!

Stop using the “well they’re gonna turn into a creep living in their parents basement” punchline! It’s disgusting. STOP. BEING. ABLEIST. STOP. FORGETTING. THE. POOR.

Something I want able bodied people to understand is that I don't want a diagnosis cause I wanna be sick so bad; I want a diagnosis because there is already something wrong with my body but I don't know what the fuck it is.
