Okay so did we all cry a little when each cast member started entering the place where they shoot friends?

The FRIENDS REUNION was so so pretty I believe because we all get back to the days when we came from school to watch this show or those days when we missed school and run to see the show.

I know, I know many get opinions that there are better shows but actually, FRIENDS will never stop being FRIENDS. Finding out Jennifer Aniston had a crush on David Schwimmer and David on Jenn made us understand the way they get along so good and why it hurt when they couldn't be together.

I still believe Matt LeBlanc is the cutest being as Joey or being Matt that guy looks wholesome.

OHHHHH MY GOD! Let's not take for granted Janice, Maggie Wheeler gave us this annoying laughter and this unique way to say oh my god!

What I would change about the reunion?

The fashion show part: I don't care about Justin Beiber, Cara Delevingne, and Cindy Crawford at the moment. I would have like to see the actual cast in the costumes just as Matt did at the end with "all Chandler clothes".

But that is just my personal opinion. If you havent seen it yet, this is your call to do it.

[thesaintinvain]

I will break down this movie step by step.

Completely flawless from costume to the way they manage to copy some scenes of the original animated movie of 101 dalmatians. And yes! I am talking about the scene Cruella steals a delivery man his bike and the letters he was delivering start to fly all over the sky as Cruella is crying with her whole makeup messed up.

Just as Maleficent, Cruella gave us the twist in which we turned from hating her to completely LOVE HER!.

Second of all Disney always finds a way to show us that we have to go and chase our dreams... Cruella's dream? being a fashion designer. So for those who are aspiring to be designers this movie is spectacular, HIGH FASHION IS NOT MADE OF EXPENSIVE MATERIALS IS MADE OF PURE IMAGINATION AND INVENTION.

Now... we thought this woman hated dogs but... her best friend was a dog, so she stole the dalmatians to her real mother as a way to make her suffer and then boom make an appearance with a dalmatian print. A TOTAL EVIL OR SHOULD WE SAY, DEVIL?

Thank you Emma Stone for leading Cruella in the way you did but I am also thankful for Maryl Steep cause lest being honest women knew what she was doing.

Disney, Disney Plus we love you guys!

Los ángeles del cielo

Nathaniel le pedía a su papá monedas para comprar un algodón de azúcar.

Pero su padre le decía: ¡un algodón de azúcar eso es algo muy malo Nathaniel!

Blop,blop,blop el corazón de Nathaniel se quebraba porque sabía que esa era la única forma de llegar a las nubes donde estaba su madre. Encima de ese algodón de azúcar que era una nube rosada llena de magia.

Nathaniel arrastraba sus pies por toda la casa sin consuelo alguno.

Su padre se acercaba sin decir nada hasta un día que le dijo: ¿por qué deseas tanto ese algodón de azúcar?

A lo que el niño respondió: Es la única manera de llegar a donde está mamá.

...

I have realized that if I die no one is going to die in my place, so no one is living the life I am suppose to live, why not living it to the fullest?

[thesaintinvain]

we are ready for invincible season two.

I know we stayed at the episode where Mark got hit by his dad "Omni man". We were like: what the fuck? What the actual fuck happen, how, when and why is a dad so mean to his son?...

We all cried a little with that episode and that is what comics can bring to us... EMOTIONS!

So this is a second call for you to watch Invincible.

I'm so sorry to break it through but this serie moved aside Game of Thrones.

BECAUSE OF A MISION AND BECAUSE HE IS FUCKING OMNI MAN. Stay tuned.

[thesaintinvain]

DID YOU ALREADY GIVE INVINCIBLE A CHANCE?

WELL IF NOT, THIS IS YOUR CALL.

WE ARE TIRED OF PREDICTABLE SERIES, WE ARE JUST TIRED TO KNOW WHAT IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN CAUSE WRITERS HAVE BEEN WRITING THE SAME STUFF OVER AND OVER AGAIN. THE NICE TWIST OF INVINCIBLE IS HOW THEY WILL MAKE YOU BELIEVE THINGS WILL GO ONE WAY AND THEY WILL GO OTHER WAY.

IM NOT BEING SPONSERED BY AMAZON PRIME... (I SHOULD THO) BUT IF YOU ARE NOT YET SUBSCRIBED TO AMAZON PRIME IS NOW THE TIME TO DO IT SO. AMAZON PRIME IS BRINGING A BUNCH OF SERIES AND MOVIES THAT I HOPE PEOPLE WON'T MISS... AND LET ME TAKE A BREAK OUT OF INVINCIBLE TO RECOMMEND "THIS IS US".

OKAY BYE!

LONG LIFE

I live close to a church. Mom used to say: I hate when they make the bells sound is so tragic is so sad.

I had no concern and didn't even listen to those bells. But then I started to feel trapped and lost in myself and I can hear those bells even when I fall asleep.

It has been weird, is been sticky. A sound that is not disturbing but yet is a sad noisy sound.

Momma said just yesterday... yes is right you are starting to grow old and that is the way bells give you the nostalgic feeling as if things are going by and you start to realize how much time you have been wasting being focus on the wrong things.

Yesterday just yesterday I saw DMX dancing in the street while a fan put on his car X-GON GIVE IT TO YA. Yesterday just yesterday I saw DMX at an amusement park, having the time of his life. While most of the people knew him he was not focused on growing his IG followers but he was just too entertain collecting a good time. Yesterday just yesterday I realize I am looking on the wrong side, cause life is not just life but it goes beyond life, which means collecting good times and that the main thing to do in life is to understand that everything is figureoutable.

One thing this movie teaches: love and patience that's what you need.

Second thing: solidarity and empathy.

Third thing: being understood.

Forth thing: sometimes we imagine things as a way to escape in this case Momo and his imaginary tiger.

Fifth thing: never force, show things through love and you will see the change.

No doubt why this movie has an Oscar nomination.

PS. I LOVED ABRIL ZAMORA AND HER ROLE HERE IN THIS MOVIE.

CORDELIA BROOM AND THE CRYSTAL BOTTLES

If you see some scrumbles on the floor and they draw a path... will you follow or will you not follow them?

My mom used to ask me this whenever she got scared of me going out home. I used to answer, of course, I wouldn't. Then while she sobbed my head I used to ask her... but if you knew those scrumbles were thrown by Gretel of Hansel and Gretel will you follow them?

She laughed as I pointed to a little spark that was always in the corner of my room as she said: that is just a hole in the roof.

Look closer mom it turns on and off... And then she answered is just the sun being covered by a big cloud. Go to bed you need to sleep. As I say: will you read a bedstory to me?

And that night she said: not tonight. Mom left the room and I started thinking about the conversation I had with Anaja, earlier that day.

What is your name?, I asked her.

And she said: Anaja...

Who brought you here? I said. And she answered gently and crying: it was your mom.

My jaw dropped while I made a big effort to talk back again: mmm mm my mom?...

As she said: your mother has a lot of crystal bottles, right?

I said, yes.

You know why? the fairy said...

And when she was about to reveal something to me, mom knocked on the door...

THE ICKABOG A SHORT REVIEW

So I had the curiosity to read the ickabog. I purchase it for 12.00 dollars or so. The truth is once you had known Harry Potter is hard to not imagine JK ROWLING writing about wizards, witches, and all these fantastic beasts she gave us in past books. One thing for sure is that ickabog is a fairytale book that is completely for kids as stories you tell kids before going to bed. It has a clean narrative for kids, easy to understand, magic in it, and the hero who has a mission... kill the ickabog. It is a book for kids but if you as are an adult who loves fairytale stories you can read this book and you will enjoy it. One thing you have to know is to not make the mistake of expecting something as Harry Potter because the ickabog is a different type of narrative. One thing for sure is that Harry Potter will forever be Harry Potter same as Fantastic Beasts but the hot part about all this is that Harry Potter is intertwined with Fantastic Beasts which make Fantastic Beasts even cooler... but ickabog, not sure if it is crisscrossed to any of these two previous stories, but you will never know cause one thing JK ROWLING does in a great way is to crisscross stories, so let's just wait!

IT IS WHAT IT IS

It hurts to age, it hurts seeing mom aging. But you get used and the pain you better transform it to peace. Peace with the timing and his ways cause this is the only way.

THE AGING DAHLIA

And I know it hurts to age.

But I asked the stars just yesterday: why it hurts?

they shine as I cried.

Wrinkles and scars I hate them all

But I love the stories they show.

And I still cry every night knowing I am not in the place where I belong.

But then I notice I am where my heart can still pump blood.

And it hurts how the smile of the child fades.

But it's nice the laughter of the adult that knocked on the door.

As I age I forget and I start to live the most.

I talk to the moon just yesterday and a teardrop came up and it tasted just like dust.

LUPIN

What I loved about the Lupín serie is that they gave Omar Sy the main character.

Is weird that writers write giving the main role to a black person except if the writer is a black writer but we can`t trick the reality even if it is a harsh reality is rare to find black characters leading a book that was written by a white person. Or a black character leading a role in which oftenly society things a white person fits it better.

That´s why I consider Lupin such an important serie see why:

The original character of the book is a white, blonde male so seeing Omar Sy leading the serie made me happy, not only because of his great performance but because he made of Lupin such an amazing character that everyone is waiting to the next season and many people is purchasing the book.

Thank you Omar Sy for always brightening your roles with your charisma and your amazing smile. Thank you for doing a great job from: Samba to Chocolat going through the intouchable, two is family and now Lupin.

Spitting truths PART 1

Everything changes and it´s okay. Everything comes and everything goes and there is no shame in it. Climate change is real love as well as real even if they force us to believe is not. 

In Madrid this year is snowing and in Miami, they are over 48 degrees when it's supposed to be sunny. 

They kill and they murder women, cisgenders, transgenders die daily but there are still people thinking this ain´t real cause is not happening to them or their closest ones. Can you see the problem, the issue?.

Is a selfish society. A society is forced to believe capitalism is the best of the options.

Another day the same pain

I have cried a million times. Sometimes I cry until I finally fall asleep. On the next day, I make it as if nothing was consuming me inside. I turn my back whenever mom passes close to my room cause I know she suffers too. The many times I have wanted to take my life away make me feel angry and in ache. I want a friend, a lover as well.

I want to take all the pain. All the thoughts of not wanting my body and entire soul.

I want to see my dreams come true and that's why I try hard to keep so alive even feeling dead inside.

LOCKED EYES: PART II

Charles please Charles say something. I heard how the phone felt from Charles's hands. I was in charge of every legal deal about that man. I was always there and nothing rare was going on in his life.

He had one son but he never used to visit him, he rarely talked to me about him. He will go: "the kid hates me and I hate him too." It was better not asking the reason why he hated his son cause he will through a: "fuck you Janet stay in your business".

I hated him I do... but killing or kidnapping the old man? it was never an option for me. I'm too good for that, I guess. Janet, that was not the question (an officer said while he pushed a cup of coffee to my hands).

What was the question then?

What you were talking about with Charles when you heard the scratches over his door? And why you choose to call him at that hour when you both have a specific hour to talk out of the office?

I stood the cup of coffee as I remembered the scratches on Charles's door. I wanted to run away cause I had answers but I was not in the condition to give them, I just refused to go to jail.

Mam, would you please... answer the questions?
