Presente will reveal the story of Omar Guerra Gutierrez who fought in the Bay of Pigs Invasion against the Castro regime and gave the ultimate sacrifice for freedom. Written and Directed by his grandson Omar Guerra, the film will go back to Omar's life as husband, father and friend. It will dis...
If all you know about the Bay of Pigs Invasion is some hazy memory of an 8th grade history lecture about the "Cuban Missile Crisis" without any real details to go with it, YOU are one of the many reasons why "Presente" needs to be made.
These are amazing stories that should be told, not just to immortalize the lives of these brave men who volunteered to fight for this cause they believed so strongly in, but to fill in the gaps in the story that we aren't told by the history books.
"Presente" is not about the politics in the US Government...it's about the people who fought for what they knew was right; people who thought they could make a difference, and the struggles they faced in order to stand up for what they believed in.
Don't let these stories die out as those that were directly involved pass away or unfortunately have their memories fade with age. Help this story be preserved for future generations.
Tumblr...it's time to use your amazing powers for good.

More Lessons Learned by the Midnight Baker (Cookie Edition)
1. Creaming butter and sugar is the bane of my existence, but it makes such a big difference, one deals with it.
2. When creaming butter and sugar, soften the butter until lightly pressing a thumb into it makes it just slightly give way and then slice it up into inch or half an inch size slices so you can add those little slices in one or two at a time to better control the mixing and avoid the beaters of the mixer (or, your spatula if creaming it by hand) to become all muddled with too much. Patience is key.
3. Leave the cookies to cool on the cookie sheet out of the oven for two or three minutes before trying to move them to the wire rack. They’ll break or stick to the cookie sheet if you try to move them too soon.
4. Air is either your best friend or your enemy, depending on whether you want your cookies to be all around gooey or crunchy on the edges and gooey in the middle. (Let them sit in the open air for a little while even after they cool if you want them a little crunchy on the edges; if you want to keep them totally gooey, then put them inside a tupperware with the top on.)
5. When presented with chocolate-chocolate chip cookies or sugar cookies, 99.9 % of people will ALWAYS go for the chocolate-chocolate chip cookies.
This scene, right here, is why I passed the Bar Exam...I said to myself, "When facing apparently insurmountable adversity...be like Sir Didymus and assume you have already won."
GET TO KNOW ME MEME: [6/10] FAVOURITE FILMS: Labyrinth
Generous? What have you done that’s generous?
Everything! Everything that you wanted I have done. You asked that the child be taken. I took him. You cowered before me, I was frightening. I have reordered time. I have turned the world upside down, and I have done it all for *you*! I am exhausted from living up to your expectations. Isn’t that generous?
Five Facts About Being An Adult No One Warns You About
1. There’s no one that will do the gross stuff for you, so if you want it to get done, you’re it. And, by gross stuff, I mean, for example: cleaning the toilet, unclogging the toilet (even if there’s still stuff in it), killing roaches and other disgusting crawlies then getting rid of them, smelling your own bodily functions to make sure you’re not sick, etc. (and if you don’t know what I mean by that last one — you’re not old enough yet…just wait).
2. Never knowing what it’s like to sleep like the dead ever again. Instead, you’re awake at the smallest noise that shouldn’t be there, such as a strange knock on a wall (that you think is someone trying to get into your apartment, or alternatively, killing the upstairs neighbor), that drip your air conditioning unit shouldn’t be making because it means you’ll have a small flood in your utilities closet if you don’t get up and deal with it that minute (even though it’s four o’clock in the friggin’ morning), and all the friggin’ beeps appliances make now that you had no idea existed until they kept waking you up at random hours because you left the damn door ajar to the fridge, or you forgot to change the batteries to the smoke detector.
3. You have to make, find, hunt, buy, or otherwise invent your own dinner. You can’t call out orders to the parental figure or other adult figure, because that’s you, and if you don’t do it, you go hungry. (which is sometimes an option depending on how badly you do NOT want to cook, or you forgot to leave the meat in the fridge so it could defrost that morning). And no…chips, popcorn, chocolate, ice cream, or any other snack food variety does NOT count. If you’re having any of that instead of dinner, you’re not an adult yet. (Ramen doesn’t count either.)
4. If something breaks down in your house, car, or elsewhere, it’s on you to get it fixed. Unless you’re Cuban, in which case it is allowed to call Papi for help in the fixing, because you’re Cuban and if Papi finds out you didn’t call him and called some strange guy off the street to come into your house and fix it, he will either rant until you want to drown yourself to avoid hearing him, or look all depressed and hurt. (or alternatively, if you happen to know somebody who knows somebody who knows a mechanic, repairman, or handyman, you can call them.)
5. You are no longer allowed to walk away from a boring conversation or pretend you don’t see someone you just don’t feel like talking to. You’re an adult now, and you’re expected to suck it up, make polite conversation, and come up with a credible excuse of why you can’t stay and chat. (Or, alternatively, you can be one of those antisocial adults who everyone thinks is weird and who the little kids in the neighborhood swear is hiding human cadavers in their basement).

That day when you haven’t even stopped to go the bathroom all day...
And things become triple hard because technology (ie, computers, printers, copiers, uh...pens...) refuse to work...
...and when you finally get everything on this ONE project you’ve been working on ALL day finished and you still have half an hour left of your work day and you’re like,
No way am I starting something new.
I’m like, so incredibly...
A quick run-down should you ever find yourself trapped in a horror movie and would prefer to live to tell the tale.
1. Don’t have sex.
Seriously
Abstinence is key.
2. Don’t go out with people you’ve just met that day.
I don’t care how good he says his weed is
he is cuckoo bananas
and he wants you dead.
3. Don’t go to camp. Especially one where someone was murdered.
There are six words you should YouTube, should you get the chance
“Kevin Bacon in Friday the 13th”
4. Find a good hiding place and… STAY. THERE.
If the killer can’t see you or hear you WHY WOULD YOU MOVE?
Possibly the easiest rule to follow and, ironically enough, the easiest to break.
5. Always wear sensible shoes, ‘cause you never know when you’ll need to run through the woods.
Someone will always be barefoot
Or in heels
Or just plain clumsy
And will sprain their ankles
And die.
6. If the town looks deserted, it’s probably because everyone is dead.
Don’t walk around looking for people
House of Wax, anyone?
7. Don’t be a hero.
Unless you’re name is Harry Fucking Potter, you will die.
Hell, maybe even then.
I mean.
8. If you hear something creepy in the distance, like a dog’s yelp cut off mid-bark, don’t investigate.
The killer is there.
Also your dog is dead.
9. Always check the backseat before entering your vehicle.
The last thing you need is to be killed while trying to merge on the expressway.
10. If your car breaks down in front of a dilapidated gas station, don’t ask a sketchy-looking townie for help.
Some part of your body will wind up in his pick-up truck
11. Don’t go into the basement.
They are creepy enough without you dying in one.
12. If you’re trying to buy a house and the real estate agent won’t answer any direct questions about either the history of the home or the previous tenants, DO NOT MOVE IN.
At some point, someone in the house heard voices and cracked.
13. Turn off the television (and run away) if a girl crawls out of it.
It is obviously your wisest choice.
SEE ALSO: poltergeist, daughter trapped in tv because of.
14. If the walls of your house bleed, do not attempt an exorcism.
Move very very far away
Because there’s blood on your walls.
Blood.
Your
Walls
Are
Bleeding.
15. Don’t act like a detective.
Some crazy Japanese kid who meows like a cat will attack you in a closet.
If you live, awesome story to tell your friend, right?
But if you die, it is like the opposite of awesome.
16. Google the location you’ll be vacationing at.
If more than five reports for “Missing Persons” pops up, you know not to go there.
Issue. Solved.
17. Don’t get drunk. Or come under the influence of any mind-altering drug.
Running away from a killer is that much harder when you’re tipsy and giggling.
18. If you see someone in a mask, don’t assume it’s one of your friends playing a trick on you to scare you.
It is the killer.
ALSO: laughing while saying, “Tommy, is that you in that stupid mask? Oh, I’m so-o-o-o-o scared!” is not conducive to your surviving.
Killers are very sensitive about their disguises.
19. Don’t take a shower.
ONLY APPLIES IF:
It’s past midnight at the campground you and your sorority sisters are staying at or
The lock to the door doesn’t work and you hear creepy piano music
AND THE LAST AND MOST IMPORTANT:
20. If the call is coming from inside the house, get out.
Clearly the killer is not outside, now is he
I love this.
Look, if I ever find myself in what appears to be a horror movie situation, I’m going to don a black tanktop with maximum cleavage, acquire some very badass weapon (a supersoaker full of gasoline and a lighter will do nicely, if I can’t find a chainsaw or something quickly. Machete is also a go. As long as it’s big and ostentatious and preferably loud, explodey, or on fire) and start making horrible one-liner quips before and after everything I do. I will try my level best to drive recklessly in cool looking cars and make shit explode. If I can find a small child who is conveniently mute to carry on my shoulders and protect in a vicious mamabear fashion, all the better.
Because the easiest way to survive a horror movie is to switch genres.
Moniquill has just won the internet, everyone go home.
LET ME TALK TO YOU ABOUT PLUTO.
NASA just flew the New Horizons spacecraft by Pluto. PLUTO.
We’re going to have HELLA pictures of Pluto very soon. P. L. U. T. O. Even more HELLA than the “teaser” picture right before the flyby:
LOOK AT THAT ADORABLE MOTHERFUCKER WITH A HEART ON IT AND EVERYTHING.
You know where that picture was taken from? 476,000 MILES AWAY (766,048 KILOMETERS) You know what the closest approach distance was for New Horizons? 7,800 MILES (12,600 KILOMETERS) FROM THE SURFACE OF PLUTO.
That’s right. That means YOU AINT EVEN SEEN SHIT YET, SON.
It took us over 9 years to get to our solar system buddy 31.9 AU away.
Do you know how far away an AU is? 93 MILLION GODDAMN MILES or 149.6 MILLION HOLY SHIT KILOMETERS. Multiplied by over 30. With a (dwarf) planet flying around in some CATAWAMPAS ASS orbit.
WE JUST HIT A DAMN NEEDLE IN A HAYSTACK AS LARGE AS THE SOLAR SYSTEM.
Because of this distance, the New Horizons spacecraft will take 16 MONTHS to transfer all the data from the encounter back to Earth.
In conclusion:
GUESS WHAT KIDS
As IF New Horizons wasn’t cool enough, WE JUST RECEIVED WORD FROM THE SPACECRAFT that it is A-OKAY.
That means that the spacecraft sent us a message to say HEY EARTH SUP I PASSED PLUTO AND IT WAS AWESOME. And then that message traveled FOUR AND HALF HOURS through the vastness of our solar system to get to us. THAT ALL HAPPENED TODAY.
And the best part? New Horizons called home to the Mission Operations Manager. THAT’S RIGHT. It called home to MOM.
I see you NASA, you clever motherfuckers.
THE EXCITEMENT ISN’T OVER YET. Images come tomorrow!!!
STAY TUNED. SCIENCE ON.
Bonus: Swagtastic New Horizons Team
4 FOR YOU NEW HORIZONS. YOU GO, NEW HORIZONS.
PICS OR IT DIDN’T HAPPEN, NEWS HORIZONS.
Well, let me tell you, New Horizons delivered.
CHECK IT.
One of Pluto’s Moons: CHARON.
And the BIG BADDY ITSELF:
I’m sorry, I can’t hear you over Pluto’s ICE MOUNTAINS, that may potentially be ICE VOLCANOS.
CRYOVOLCANOS.
NASA’s got even MORE shit to figure out because it looks like Pluto’s surface doesn’t have many CRATERS, which means it may be a lot younger.
YOUNGER? Okay great, what does that mean?
It means something’s active. Volcanism, migrating ice, latent heat from a possible INTERNAL OCEAN?!
Only time will tell…
Alright that’s all I got. Can’t wait to see what new things Pluto will tell us!!
Just think, you were tuned in when humanity explored a new world for the first time.
And that’s pretty fucking awesome.
I hope all of my followers who are looking for jobs get them.
Good vibes to all y'all
Thank you i needed this

Aw, you’re sweet. To tell you a little secret, I have parts of the next chapter for IOTaM written, and if I remember correctly, a favorite non-cannon character couple makes an appearance in it. I just haven’t had the inspiration/time to continue it. But every so often, I open it up and read it over and go, “yeah, that’s good, so...what’s next?” and maybe I’ll write a sentence, and then I’ll have to do something else, or I just won’t be inspired to the next bit and so I’ll sigh and move on.
Same thing happens with Stupid Cupid every so often. Part of the next chapter is already written, and I’ve rewritten one section in it EVERY damn time I open it up, but I’m not happy with it, so I disgust myself and go do something else.
I have every intention of finishing them - I really MISS writing, as a matter of fact...I miss being creative and being hit by creative inspiration so hard that it’s all I can think of until I get it written down...

It only takes a moment!!! :D
:) I think I should throw IOTaM into a ring with Stupid Cupid and let them have a knock-out-drag-out-head-to-head match and see which one wins (and winning would be whoever gets the most support from the fans).
I’m kinda evil like that.
