she-ra and the princesses of power

So, the last days has been HARD days, in a lot of ways. Not only the world is kind of ending but also the way that everything is going downhill with my mental health because of the quarantine and all this coronavirus + blm movement thing. I'd tried to focus on good or positive thing but has been difficult, so I kind of found a refuge on an animated serie I'm rlly obssesed with right now, called She-ra and the princesses of power.

This serie is a reboot of 1985, "She-ra: The princess of Power", this new version was developed by Noelle Stevenson and produces by Dreamworks Animation and is, at the moment, the one animated series that has a lesbian characther as the main protagonist, with a female love interest. The series finished this May 15th with its finale season when, finally, Adora (the protagonist who has the abilitie to transform herself into She-ra, a mithycal heroine from the magical planet Etheria) kiss Catra, her ex best friend, who transformed into her enemy during 4 seasons and who finally got her redemption arc at the end, along with the happy ending both this girls deserve.

I think this serie has transform, currently, in my emotional support but also in one of my favorites series because of the level of represention it has. And I'm not talking just about something related to my sexuality (I'm a lesbian), but in all the ways. It has characters from differents etnicitys and body shapes, skins colors and personalities, plus that her cast its almost completely female and the male characters are also rlly interesting. Has a married lesbian couple, a married gay couple and trans characthers, its also has a non-binary characther who use they/them pronouns. Talks about war, about friendship, has a little girl of eleven years old who is the ruler of a whole kingdom, and its strong and brave, also a big woman who is no femenine but that has a big heart and it's soft and kind, breaking a lot of stereotypes related to gender and personalities, make you know that the sex you born with doesn't has to stop you for being who you are, also represents child abuse (non-sexual) and give the childs the opportunitie to overcome and survive this abuse without forgiving their abuser and through the love of people that respect their integrity and value, etc, etc.

Idk, maybe i'm obssesed with this series because I want to have some kind of hope that we can get better as society in the future.

a country i would like to visit!

First of all, there are many-many countries I would like to visit, so it's a question that request a lot of thinking for me. I can't choose only one, I think, so I would say first of all Mexico. I have always wanted to travel to Mexico, I think it's such an interesting place witch a rich culture. Visually, I like everything, their art, their architecture, and culturally too, I'm very interested in their history and cosmology, and although I think I might have a few problems with the food, since I'm no really into spicy things, I'm willing to try as much as my paladar allows me if one day I get the chance to go there. Also I must admit that I would like to go with my mom, since she is really a fan of Mexican culture too and I think a grand part of why I would like to go is for her.  There are many countries in Latinoamerica in general I would like to go, but if I get the chance to leave the continent, I would like to go to Asia and go to Korea. I've been thin...

a person i'd like to meet and why that person is angela davis

 I've admired a lot of women in my life since a young age. I was lucky that my mum was not a feminist itself but had a really anti patriarchal ideology when she raised me, so she was aware I would learn about a lot of strong independent and revolutionary women while I was growing up. So, when I read the blog topic of this week, I immediately knew I was going to write about one of them. I thought about musicians I really love like Mon Laferte or Lee Hi or Mitski, only to tell them about how much I love their music and how it help me to go through really rough times of my life. I thought about actresses I admire like Jennifer Lawrence, Lupita Nyong'o or Anya Taylor-joy (the love of my life, oh my god, I would really LOVE to met her, sure it would be the best moment of my life, but whatever) and say to them about how much talent they have and how much I appreciate their hard work in every interpretation, because they have to go through such awful things in that industry.  Bu...

the soundtrack of my life aka my own coming of age movie

Okay, I've OBVIOUSLY thought about this a lot, since I love music and I love movies and I love daydreaming because life is miserable so you have to cope some how, and tbh I actually have a whole playlist about this, and I've decided many year ago that definitely a movie of my life would start with FULL MOON by Black Ghost, from Twilight (2008) so soundtrack, with a shot of me running late to work, or school, or to wherever place I’m going to, probably because something bad happened to me.   that said, i really think Twilight's soundtrack was a big influence to me, since was one of the first things i heard for myself and not because my mom or my brother told me so, I met bands and musicians that keep by my side and on playlist till today such as Florence and The Machine, St. Vincent, Paramore, Muse, SIA and Sleeping At Last, and a lot of other artist that I listen casually. I think was one of the first times I really felt music on another level My music genre is kinda divers...
