This election day, I'm thinking of my Nana.
I'm thinking of how as a young woman, she fled political violence in her native Colombia to build a new home in a more stable country. I'm thinking about how she lived a long life, but not long enough to see her home country elect its first ever progressive president (just a few months ago!).
Coincidentally, I was living in Colombia at that time (in the very city she grew up in), and I was able to witness what felt like a miracle. A very conservative country, suffering from the violent inheritance of colonization and catholic invasion and the war on drugs, against a backdrop of the dangerous global rise of the far right--this unlikely country managed to elect one of the most progressive heads of state in the world, in 2022. That's a pretty big deal.
And I'm thinking about this, this election day, because that election was won by a very thin margin. I'm thinking about how it almost didn't happen. I'm thinking about how it was only possible thanks to the highest voter turnout in 20 year. And I am thinking about the countless number of voters who chose to vote for the first time. I am thinking of the poorest and most disenfranchised citizens who showed up at the polls. I am thinking of the indigenous women who rode 12 hours on public buses to vote at the 'nearest' polling stations. I am thinking of all the money and corruption that went into preventing minority citizens from voting, and I'm thinking about how they showed up in the millions and voted anyway.
I am thinking that I would like to see a miracle like that in my own home country.
So if you're on the fence about waiting in line today to cast your vote, I hope that you will think--about the country you want to live in, the future you hope will unfold, and about all of the people it takes to make a miracle.
Because history may deem us nameless and faceless, but when we show up en masse, we are the ones who make history happen.
And yes, maybe also spare a thought for my Nana. Who was in fact a very angry and judgemental woman who supported the republican party for 50+ years, and who would be turning in her grave right now (if the family hadn't had her cremated). Think about the mean angry ghost of my Colombian grandmother, who very much wants you to not show up at the polls to support abortion and other sinful progressive values. Think about her. Do it for her. Do it for Nana.
#Do it! for her#not a shitpost#serious post#politics#ask to tag#I love you Nana but i disagree SO vehemently with almost all of your personal political and religious values#also you should have treated my mom SO MUCH BETTER when she was a kid. all of your kids really#i see you very much as a victim of religious trauma & childhood poverty#followed by the cultural isolation of being a first generation immigrant with no local hispanic community to provide support#plus the failure of late 20th century mental health care almost certainly compounded by medical sexism#recognize sympathize and am indignant on your behalf for all of those reasons and more#but that truth can also coexist alongside the truth that#hot DAMN Nana you and Papa very much failed to provide your children with an emotionally safe and stable environment in which to grow#and me and my sibs are still dealing with the generational trauma#and who knows how many of my cousins. I HAVE TWENTY-ONE COUSINS AND I DON'T TALK TO ANY OF THEM#that is too many cousins to not be in contact with any of them#(and fyi that's on *one* side of the family. on the other side are a dozen half-aunts-and-cousins I've never met#because Other Grandpa was a Certified Piece of Shit)#Anyway. ANYWAY...#apparently i really needed to overshare today. know what? no judgement. judgement free zone#i have no judgement thoughts or opinions i am finally FREE#........gosh that sounds so relaxing#ANYway#yeah. break the cycle of abuse or your descendants will grow up and critique your parenting choices on third-tier social media platforms#when people say 'they will always be remembered' at a funeral--that is a THREAT#what they actually mean is 'OH HONEYBUN YOU DONE FUCKED UP'#.........i want that in my eulogy actually

Hello! I really enjoy your blog! I was wondering if you have done Gaz or Soap with a short hispanic s/o that's like scary quiet when their mad?
John " Soap " MacTavish + Kyle " Gaz " Garrick x Hispanic scary quiet lover. ; Gender Neutral
♡Headcanons/Drabbles ♡The damn dentist asked me if I wanted to file down my fangs, i should but my fangs bro imma cry ♡I added abit of Reader forgiving them bc I love my boys:) ♡Sorry it was short or feels rushed, I'm sick and I'm trying to get as many fics I can before possibly going to the hospital.<33

Tumblr media
John " Soap " MacTavish
Hes confused and panics after listening to you mumble something in spanish as you walked away during an argument.
After his time in Las Almas, he's picked up quite abit of spanish from Alejandro and Rudy.
Still can't clearly translate what you said, so he went to Ale.
When he tries to repeat it to Alejandro, it comes out as a mix of gibberish and a scottish accent. His personal translator has no idea was he was saying.
John left with still no idea what you were muttering about.
When he got back home and saw you on the couch reading a book he was expecting atleast a look but slightly hurt when you didn't acknowledge the fact he had just arrived.
" Hey, Love. " He called out to you, putting the car keys away. " Hey. " You mumbled quietly, not looking up from your book. John fiddled with his fingers nervously as he sat near you on the couch and looked at you with puppy eyes. You were completely focused on what you were reading. Whatever you were reading could not have been so interesting to not look at him. ' Shite.. ' He thought to himself, thinking of ways to make it upto you. " Hey, (Name). " John whispered, his eyes sad and soft. How could you be mad at that face? " What is it, Angel? " You asked, your demeanor changing as you instantly softened up. He crawled towards you and rest his head on your lap, looking up at you with his blue eyes. " Were ye mad at me? " He asked, looking up at you with lovesick eyes. " Yeah, still am. But your eyes are pretty so I decided to not be mad for right now. " You told him, cradling his head as you rubbed his mohawk back.
Kyle " Gaz " Garrick
Genuinely confused.
Tries to talk to you several times, but only being met with mhms, yeah, and sure.
I feel like Rudy taught alot of spanish to Kyle, but you talking quick and with your accent made the wires in his brain spark.
Follows you around like a puppy until you speak an actual sentence to him.
Makes a :I face whenever you death stare him.
" Darlin' please. " Kyle pleaded, his eyes begging along with his voice. You glanced at him and looked back at your lap as you got ready for bed. He has been getting the silent treatment for a solid 12 hours, but for him it felt like eternity. He felt like he was gonna explode if he didn't get a full sentence from you soon. He sighed loudly and sat on his side of the bed, looking disappointedly at the wall as he changed to his pajamas. After he was completely changed he laid on his side, facing the wall. Kyle suddenly felt arms wrapping around his waist with a forehead being pressed to his back. " I love you. " A quiet voice muttered, causing him to grin as he turned to face you. " I knew you couldn't last being mad at me. " He teased as he faced you, his brown eyes glistening. " Don't push your luck, Garrick. " You warned him, pulling him into a hug as you enjoyed his warmth as you fell asleep.

I’m having a lot of feelings about it tonight so I just have to say as a Mexican person, it means so goddamn much to me that a Mexican man was cast to play as Luffy in the live action One Piece
And not only that but Taz Skylar being Spanish and playing my favorite character Sanji feels like the biggest treat in the world to me and there’s so many videos of Taz and Iñaki speaking in Spanish to each other and it feels so natural and wonderful and damn do I just love being Hispanic
Los amos a todos!!

Noone asked me but it's my blog I I wanna express myself: The thing with the eggs is crazy. Just like Quackity said, this is role play. If someone wants to kill an egg, so be it. If the eggs survive, so be it! Is not that deep! As long as you don't mess with the real people behind the characters, that's fine. As soon as you start getting way to attached or, on the contrary, you can't enjoy the server just because of a few eggs, then that's on you. Both extremes are unhealthy bc you are getting waay to emotional involved on a roleplay. Is not real. Go outside and disconnect for a little bit. Is not healthy to care that deeply over something like this. Hope that didn't sound too aggressive bc its not my intention at all. More Than anything is an advice from an adult who has been on fandoms since I was 10.

Helmeppo: Dos shots de mistral, joven. Barman: En seguida, señor. Koby: ¿Qué estas haciendo? Helmeppo: Invitándote un trago. De nada. Koby: Estamos trabajando. Helmeppo: Ay, por favor. Al menos hay que disfrutar esta cacería absurda… No te gusta beber, ¿o si? Sigo sin entender a Garp y esa mania emperdernida con sombrero de paja. Koby: Dos más. Helmeppo: Estás lleno de sorpresas. Koby: ¿En serio esto es lo que deberíamos hacer? Helmeppo: ¿De qué estas hablando? Koby: Tal vez los Sombrero de Paja no son los villanos que la Marina dice que son. Helmeppo: Creí que ibas a necesitar más licor para sacar tu lado amotinado. Koby: Solo parece que… si seguimos cometiendo estos errores, nada nunca va a cambiar. Helmeppo: Oye, ya escúpelo. Sé que sabes algo. Koby: Garp es abuelo de Luffy. Helmeppo: De todo lo que pensé que ibas a decir, eso no lo tenia en la lista. Koby: Se nota en cómo ambos aman la carne. No le digas a nadie. Helmeppo: Pues tiene sentido. ¿Por qué otra razón, un vicealmirante iría tras un niño de goma jugando a ser pirata? Koby: No esta jugando. Di lo que quieras sobre Luffy, pero está en otro nivel. Helmeppo: Eso no importa. Al menos no a Garp.Si coloreas fuera de la line, simplemente te corta el brazo……¿Qué? Koby: Parece que te conecta. Debió ser duro, crecer con un padre como… Helmeppo: ¡No soy como ese Sombrero de Paja! Barman: Un tipo con sombrero de paja vino el otro día. Koby: ¿Sabes a dónde se dirigía? Barman: Tal vez. ¿Cuánto vale esa información?

it's so telling when someone says radical feminism is "white woman shit" and you bring up the fact that in many places such as africa or asia, the only feminism that prominently exists is radical feminism, and for those places it's just considered regular feminism that you get told those women live in places that aren't progressive enough for them to understand their actions properly. to say these women are too dumb to realize that their beliefs are "bad" simply because they don't align with western mainstream liberal feminism is rooted in xenophobia and racism, not to mention a lack of understanding of the struggles and violence women from these countries regularly go through, which can range anywhere from fgm to men rubbing and wiping their cum on the back of women's clothes in trains. but of course, as usual, there's no intelligent response to this so you just end up getting blocked or get rape wished on you.

Crying at the video of that dude going around asking poc and black folks if they could change their race, what would it be and every nb in that video we’re saying “white,” because of privilege with their whole chest, albeit, a little bit ashamed, while EVERY black person looked at the dude like he was crazy and was like “NO!? What the hell are you even talking about?” Like….. yeah, of course.
