I finally thought about the Barbie movie enough to pinpoint my issue with it.

It's an intro to feminism that simplifies gender relations, but it simplifies them so much that ends up being white superficial feminism.

Although I HATE golf courses, I don't mind them so much in the Netherlands.

Like, fill up a bit of the sea, play there and try not to drown.

You train to have a bikini body,
I train to get a slutty halloween costume body.

We're not the same.

Like, it is fun and I laughed a lot and had a really good time.

But that's it, it's not a treaty on feminism and people are talking about it like it as if fighting the patriarchy was a new thing. 🤷

The #Barbie movie is just a movie about a doll.
It lacks theory and a lot of depth, but again, it's just a movie about a doll.

If you're finding it too political, take it as an invitation to read more about feminism and gender.

The movie is really not that deep.

I love that the literal translation to Spanish of "congratulations" it's a over - pluralization of happiness.

So when a Spanish speaker congratulates someone, they are wishing "happinesses".

So lots of happiness!

I try to slightly bring out politics with people I getting to know.

Last time I didn't was awful.

I was dating a guy who said he prefers to stay away from politics and after FOUR years he told me he (Mexican!) thought Trump was right.

My sister loooves aliens and UFOs.

She's having the time of her life.

I would totally eat lab grown meat.

Taquitos without the guilt? Count me in!

I wanna buy a fake leather handbag.
Should I make them engrave my name, or is it too unsafe?

I believe that the problem with immigration it's with integration.

Racist people will tell immigrants that they don't belong in the country, and of course they'll create their own micro societies.

And when a third generation immigrant is asked if they feel like they're from the country they have lived on their whole life, they will say no, because they've never felt at home.

It'll be quite interesting to see how Twitter is going to end up, a social network packed with bots talking to each other.

My kickbox teacher said I was getting better and they were surprised and proud of me.

Call me Canela Álvarez 🇲🇽 🥊

So, I finally took my big painting (60x80cms) to the photographer to make reproductions.

I've been slowly trying to figure out my career as a painter.

I feel SO accomplished!

(this one is just a map of Amsterdam)

I've seen a lot of groups of girls dressing exactly the same.

Back in the day, every girl tried to stand out in the group with a "speciality", just like the Spice Girls or Sailor Moon.

My sister is coming to stay with me for almost a month.

I have to hide all the clothes I stole from her when I stayed at hers.

Is adulthood when you start to struggle to maintain friendships?

What I hate the most about cold rainy days is that the climate change deniers come out from their holes.

Netflix, Airbnb, Uber, Twitter and Reddit imploding.

Capitalism turns everything into a self-eating serpent.

I know for sure that my neighbors spent almost 800,000eur for their little apartment and they got the ugliest brown curtains ever.

Not enough money left for buying decent curtains I guess.
