Or maybe Latin America that has been fighting oppression, genocide and war for years? definitely when the pain is not white it is invisible.

The best thing my parents have ever said to me:

mom: "stop talking about movies, focus on work", when I told her I was thinking of going to the cinema.

Dad: "I thought I had "normal" children", when I told him that I didn't want to be a woman, that I was simply born a woman.

I am this 😈 but also this ☺️

I found them in the park so I took a picture. Enjoy 😘

small cultural & Colombia/Latin related details from Encanto 🇨🇴

the flowers on Isabela’s dress and in her hair - cattleya trianae orchids (may lilies), national flowers of Colombia

Camilo snapping his fingers when he is excited

Mirabel using her lips to point

flowered balconies (like in Cartagena)

ruanas (ponchos) that Bruno and Camilo wore

Dolores’ “squeaks”

inviting the whole town/neighbourhood to a party

sombrero vueltiao - traditional Colombian hat

Isabela being covered in the colors of Colombian flag (🇨🇴) during her song

and many many more!

(this is for all the people who still say Encanto is not about Colombians ; sorry about the quality of the gifs)

Reblog if you love this movie

Cómo no amar a mis demonios si son los únicos que han estado a mi lado toda la vida... Y cómo no amar a los animales si son los únicos que me han amado...

How not to love my demons if they are the only ones who have been by my side all my life ... And how not to love the animals if they are the only ones who have loved me ...

Just some PSAs since it’s the start of Ace Week.

Hey you 😘 This tiny dino, Steggy, wants you to know if you ever need a hug or support - he will be there❤

it's our week :)

If body positivity seems too difficult at the moment, aim for body neutrality.

• You may not like your face but your eyes, ears, nose and mouth allow you to sense the world

• You may not like your hands but they allow you to pet animals and help others and make art

• You may not like your legs but they allow you to walk and run and dance and jump

• You may not like your stomach but it keeps all your organs safe and protected

• You may not like your arms but they allow you to hug and defend others, to climb trees and point up at the stars

You don’t have to love your body right away, but practice acknowledging all the incredible things it allows you to do, irrespective of its size and shape.

To any suicidal followers I may have: This is a sign to not kill yourself. You are loved and the world is special because you are in it. Keep holding on.

Reblog this when it’s on your dash. You will save someone’s life.

that feeling of shame and discomfort that you get when you have big boobs and you have to jump in front of men while you are doing exercises is priceless ☺️

Do you know what is difficult? Come out asexual, 'cause anyboby understand what means:

- so do you like men? 🤔

- no 🙄

- so you are lesbian don't you? 😳

- no, I don't like women either 😑

- 😦😮😲😨😰😱🤯😵

- 🤦🏽‍♀️

And growing up in a latino catholic household don't make it easy either. So, yes thanks for coming to my Ted Talk. 😘

Something strange that happens to me: I want to talk but the three languages in my brain fight for the control of my tongue, so in the end I don't speak in Spanish or English neither French 😢
