I went on my first date with a girl today!

So i was looking at some very old newspapers from Mexico, November 1959 and found a very good looking beer advertisement (Carta Blanca beer) and decided to edit it into this poster... what do you think? (Model name: Lorena Velazquez)

[nm-autumn-vibes]

A New Mexican in New England, 5: We visited Salem twice. The first day, it was raining. Niether of us had remembered to bring an umbrella, so we toughed out the rain until we could make it to the Army Surplus store. Sa;em is beatiful in the rain. The grey sky leeches color from above but richly saturates the trees and buildings.

Some alive Georgie headcannons + a shipp for him because he deserve it

[Sorry for the trash english]

• First of all, he didn’t die (oh really?) but that doesn’t mean that Pennywise don’t exist so yeah all the shit happen

• Of course that Bill told to Georgie not get envolved and thanks god worth it

• But Georgie had to see (and hear) it all his brother wake up in the middle of night crying and in really bad days, screaming

• And he had nightmares too, and when he wake up after sleeping a little bit he just can’t sleep again

• When Bill told him that Bev was going to live with her aunt he was sad too, so he just ask it (maybe crying) to his parents let Bev stay in their house and after asking A LOT, they accepted. BEV WILL STAY HERE YOU BITCHES

• And they become brother and sister like really quick, they’re adorable. and beverly and Bill are who make cookies for Georgie when he’s sad

• And finally your little baby has 10 years old and in his birthday the Losers take him to the Quarry

• In this fucking day everybody discover that Stan, Richie and Georgie are the best together

• and in this day after YEARS being idiots who can’t see that they love eachother, Richie and Eddie finally kiss

• Georgie yelled “FINALLY” and everyone laughed. You can fight me on this.

• After speeding the day in the Quarry they all go to Richie’s (Maggie and Wentworth aren’t house) to make a movie night with junk food and pillows

• Stan and Bill were sitting next to each other cuddling and Bill kissing softly Stan’s forehead during the film

• Beverly was sleeping between Ben and Mike and she’s smiling, because she love her boys :D

• Richie and Eddie are sleeping together because being so fucking gay is exausting

• And Georgie it’s sitting in the ground watching the movie drinking hot chocolate and eating cookies. He’s really happy like A LOT

• YAY HE’S 12 :D (i’m doing some time skip because Yes)

• When he’s 12 all the Losers are 17 and wow Stan and Beverly are GOURGEOUS (and Stan is dating Bill THANKS)

• And Georgie is confuse, like “i like boys? But i like girls?? BUT I LIKE EVERYBODY?!”

• So he go talk to Bill, his best fucking friend, about it

• “how do you know you like boys?”

• “…ilinksta”

• “What?”

• “…i like Stan…”

• Bill just tried to not laugh at his shame, but he fail and your little baby it’s just blushing and slaping his brother with his pilow screaming at him “STOP LAUGHING AND FUCKING HELP ME”

• And when Beverly heard the screams she ran to the Bill’s room and just saw a little boy hitting an almost adult with a pilow

• After everybody just calm down they explain everything to Bev (including the part that says that Georgie likes her too) she just say that he is probally pan or bi (spoiler: he’s Pan)

• And of course that all the Losers wanted to show to their little brother (FIGHT ME ON THIS BITCHES) how they acepetted him, and all them helped him to came out for his parents and thanks god they acepetted pretty fine

• He was happy really happy.

• Now a very long time skip, OUR BABY IS 17 AND IN HIGH SCHOOL YAY

• He become like REALLY TALL, TALL AS A REAL FUCK

• And if you want a base to know how he is. Thomas Brodie-Sagster, thank you very much

• The Losers aren’t living in Derry anymore, they’re in college but one time in the year they come to visit Georgie (and everybody else) but all the rest of the year the Denbrough’s house is pretty quiet and solitary so as Georgie

• So when he has his nightmares it’s very very very bad, they happen almost everyday.

• BUT AT LEAST he has two new best friends two girls called Dany and Valky (my Oc’s too thanks)

• Dany is a smal bean filled with hate, angry and sometimes sadness. She has red, curly and long hair, green eyes, some freckles and a really really pale skin. Valky call her ghost and she’s Bi (pastel goth style)

• Talking about the devil. Valky is a little bit tallest than Dany and she is a little brat who cares about everyone besides her. She is mexican, her hair is black and short and she’s really skinny. She’s Asexual and Pan (punk as a fuck)

• THEY’RE THE BEST

• The Quarry belong to them now. You can’t fight me on this

• I talked about my girls style right? Ok, Georgie’s is just love his pastel sweaters and flannels shirts, he’s adorable

• Was everything in the major peace until the day that one new guy came to Derry and eventually to Georgie’s school

• His name is Harry, and want a base for him? Young Jake Gyllenhaal (Young = Jake Gyllenhaal in Donnie Darko) and for Georgie’s luck he’s just a little bit tallest than him and he doesn’t have a style but he wears a lot of blue clothes, band shirts and he sometimes wears glasses (just to read)

• And damn, he’s smile is beautiful

• So yeah ya boy Georgie (Gie how he is called by the girls) has big a crush

• He and Harry have English, Math and Chemistry together and in Chemistry they’re a duo

• Btw Georgie is horrible in Chemistry and Harry is great

• But Georgie is great in English and Harry is like trash

• both are good in Math, thanks god

• So they started to help eachother, and Georgie discover that Harry is actually really funny and a real dork and that he’s a really cute person, and he eventually discover that Harry is gay

• And Harry discover that Gie is a really innocent and a precious child

• So they become friends, like best friends and they’re like a dinamic duo

• another Time Skip, sorry The crush that Gie have in Harry (and Harry have in Gie) is so fucking big that everyone could see, beside this two idiots

• So one day Dany and Valky asked to Georgie “when the fuck are you going to tell Harry that you like him?!”

• “I don’t like him! I mean, not as you… You know! But I like him as a friend! Why? You like him? I mean, it’s not a problem because ya know he’s really cute, and has a beatiful smile a-a-and… Ok, fuck I like him”

• “Well Dany, my darling I told ya so give me my five dolars”

• “FUCK YOU”

• Then the plan to the two blind idiots started and he only worth it when the Losers came back to the city (next to Christmas)

• And only worth it because Bill inveted Harry to the Christmas party and he went because his parents really don’t cared about Xmas

• Maybe Bill get a little bit of regret because shit Harry and Richie has the same fucking sense of humor

• And still yet, Georgie loves Harry’s jokes because he knows that Harry love making jokes

• And Harry love making jokes because when Georgie laugh his heart just melt

• And noticing that the Losers make a emergency reunion

• Beverly and Mike call Georgie to help them with the dinner

• And Eddie and Richie call Harry to talk

• Meanwhile Bill and Ben prepare the mistletoe

• After everything is ready they call Harry and Georgie to the trap

• And they kissed, F U C K Y E A H

• So they had an amazing christmas party and the Losers stayed wake up watching films

• And Harry and Georgie went to Georgie’s bedroom to sleep but they just sit on the bed looking for eachother

• Both are blushing and smiling a little bit

• And Georgie’s just goes “So we… we just kissed”

• “…I know”

• “I wanted to… told you… that… that… I…”

• “Yeah, I know, me too”

• “…Wait what?!”

• “I love you too, idiot” Harry it’s just smiling as a fuck

• And Georgie is just BITCH I’M SHOOK

• And than Harry just kiss him, and is soft and lovely

• Georgie wanted that kiss to last forever but sadly human being need oxygen so they separate and both are smiling so much because they’re so fucking happy then both start giggling and laughing softly

• Then after they stop laughing they lie in the bed (in the same bad)

• “So… now we are dating?” - Georgie

• “If you want too, yes” - Harry says kissing Georgie’s cheek

• Then they sleep just like that

• But how i’m an evil person - by @mayumimad

• Georgie has a nightmare, a really bad one and he wake up in middle of the night with all the house in silence

• But for his luck Harry wake up and hugged him asking if he was fine, telling him that was just a bad dream and that he loved him

• After Georgie calm down he hugged Harry too and hide it his face on Harry’s shoulder

• And Harry stayed wake cuddling Gie until he sleep

• And in this night was the first time that Georgie could finally sleep in peace after a fucking nightmare with that fucking clown

• because he was finally feeling protected like nothing could ever touch him.

+ add more if you want.

Mexican pink, New York pink

Mexican pink = What is your favorite lyric from your favorite album?Okay, can I give multiple answers from different albums? Because I love all of these:Album = Love Yourself: TearMagic Shop: "You gave me the best of me, so you'll give you the best of you"Paradise (낙원): "It's okay not to have a dream (꿈이 없어도 괜찮아)"Stop running for nothing, my friend" (I'm so cool and have so much time on my hands, I'm even including the hangul B)Album = Love Yourself: Answer (my fave!! ♡~♡)Epiphany: "I'm the one I should love in this world. Shining me, precious soul of mine. I finally realized so I love me. Not so perfect, but so beatiful (I'm the one I should love in this world 빛나는 나를 소중한 내 영혼을 이제야 깨달아 So I love me 좀 부족해도 너무 아름다운 걸)"Answer: Love Myself: "You've shown me I have reasons I should love myself"And the entirety of I'm Fine. Now I know I shouldn't write all the lyrics, but I love them so much I can't not put them here, so enjoy (do note that the song makes even more sense if you listen to Save Me first): "Open your eyes under the cold blue sky. The pouring sun makes me dizzy. My breath is quickening, my heart is racing. I can feel it so easily that I'm alive. It's alright, even if it's not us, even if sadness erases me, even if there are clouds, even if I'm in an endless dream, even if I'm endlessly crumpled, even if my wings are torn, even if some day, I'm not me anymore, it's alright, only I am my own salvation. I won't ever die on this walk. How you doin'? I'm fine. My sky is clear. All pain, say goodbye, goodbye. My cold heart has forgotten how to call you. But I'm not lonely, I'm fine, I'm fine. The darkness of the night shakes away my sleeping dreams. But I'm not afraid, I'm fine, I'm fine. I'm feeling just fine, fine, fine, I'll let go of your hand now. I know I'm all mine, mine, mine, 'cuz I'm just fine. I'm feeling just fine, fine, fine, I don't want to be sad anymore. I could see the sunshine shine, shine, 'cuz I'm just fine, just fine. I'm just fine, all of my pain, I can overcome without you. I'm just fine, don't worry, I can smile now, because everyone knows your voice. I'm so fine, you so fine, all of the sadness and scars became an old memory now, so let's smile and go, we so fine. I'm so fine, you so fine, our future will only have happiness, so put away your fear. Enjoy it, you worked hard, we so fine. My cold heart has forgotten how to call you. But I'm not lonely, I'm fine, I'm fine. The darkness of the night shakes away my sleeping dreams. But I'm not afraid, I'm fine, I'm fine. I'm feeling just fine, fine, fine, I'll let go of your hand now. I know I'm all mine, mine, mine, 'cuz I'm just fine. I'm feeling just fine, fine, fine, I don't want to be sad anymore.

I'm feeling just fine, fine, fine, I'll yell it out myself, casting a spell on this repeating nightmare. I'm feeling just fine, fine, fine, I'll keep telling myself again.

Witch one is the real “Dia de muertos” movie?

I had seen a lot of post about dia de los muertos movies, especialy before the premier of Coco, a lot of people speak about how they stole the tunder of the book of life and that it was imposible for a corporation like disney to imitate the amazing and beatiful spirit of the Mexican traditions, or after the premier of Coco, someone praying about how it was better than the book of life and a most powerful emotional journey, it seen like it was imposible to think that two movies about the same holidays could co exist. 

Well the millions of movies about christmast could disagree but thats not my point, my point is that none of these movies are “the movie” about el dia de muertos. 

Both of them are beatiful and emotional and in some points really really accurate but both of them are, how to said? Gringo production, MADE IN THE USA  movies, one in a complete other level than the other, i remember a special video about the made of coco in witch the animators take a two week trip to some towns in Mexico to see the celebration, and that  is not bad enought but... eh.... 

And yea i know that guillermo del toro produce the book of life and that a lot of mexican talent and love is behind it but, still... there is something really romantic about it, not in like romantic love tone, but in the  real tone of the movie, every time i watch the book of life i see a romantic version of mexico, like a fairy tale about Mexico, i don´t know how to explain it. 

My point, because of course i have a point, these are not our only two options, they are movies, complete mexican animated movies that are about El dia de muertos and is make me crazy that aparently no one knows about them, but how could you? 

These are Las Leyendas 

Is a little movie about a boy, Leo San Juan that lives in Puebla and can see sobrenaturals creatures, so he get a few ghost friends, calaveritas and alebrijes, and has adventures fighting agains some the most iconic Mexican monsters,  is produce by Anima studios and i m not gonna lied the first movie is not even close to pixar  quality, no... o boy not even close. But is the first one , they made FIVE OF THESE. 

La leyenda de la nahuala is follow by La leyenda de la llorona, la leyenda de las momias de guanajuato, la leyenda del chupacabras and finally la leyenda del charro negro. 

Each one of these move is better than last, and i mean it, this morning i watch la leyenda del charro Negro and it was amazing, really really great. 

Not of them are adulcorate version of mexican leyends, some of these monsters really scare the kids, because i must said, and is something that its really bothers me about Coco and not so much about the Book of life (because chivalva) there has no scary feel. 

And you must think “ooooo dia de muertos is not halloween is not supose to be scary” and i could laught in your face. Dia de muertos is not a scary holiday but Mexico legends are some really mess up tails, a big part of our culture is about a deep deep respect for the death and the things we dont understeand, and im speaking like an exceptical atheist, i don´t believe on ghost but i would never never in my life put my feet on a grave because they deserv my respect, las catrinas en el panteon el 2 de noviembre are there because they are gorgeous but also the little kids are afraid of them, and the little “cameo” of la catrina in coco is play for laughts and its feel... im sorry its feel gringo, it has the Made in the USA print right there, is a love letter for mexico yes, but is for Mexico not By Mexico. 

I saw La leyenda del Charro Negro today, but whait... Why? La Nahuala premier was 1 of november 2007, La leyenda de la llorona opens on october 23 2011,  Las momias october 31 2004 and El chupacabras october 2016, why El charro whaits until january? it doesnt make sense, is a dia de muertos movie¡ 

Well they are not stupid, realese a dia de muertos movie on Mexico on november of 2017 would be a suicide ...you know why 

So all these rant make some sense? i just so sad that aparentely El charro is the last one of the pentalogy or werever, so si puedes ve a verla, if you can go and whach it, and if you dont live on Mexico and dont understeand spanish (i dont know if they are sub or dub for any of these movies) go and watch the cartoon on Netflix, because of course that it has a Netflix cartoon, and watch the real mexican cartoon about mexico, by mexico, for Mexico .
