It feels like we’ve lived 570 lifetimes since 2016.

I did finish this book and I’m still processing 😵💫
Oooo yes thank you kindly I’ll be adding that to my list 😊
Yeah, the banning is insane but truly unsurprising considering the administration. In my optimistic eyes I like to think it’s backfiring by spotlighting these books- in my case I’d been putting off reading them but now I’m doing so out of spite 😂
I will say Colombians love big words and Gabriel Garcia Marquez is poetic but reading the translated work…. I need to buy a dictionary. I hate having to grab my phone while reading. Context clues are great but I need to see the literal definition of everything I don’t know to file it accordingly 😂
My back just perpetually hurts
The government is saying that violence rules. That snatching foreign leaders and territories, and shooting US citizens in their cars at point blank range, is justified. That resistance is not only futile, it is dangerous. They can say these things. But they cannot force us to believe them.
Just got to a part in CODF where they mention one of the main characters of 100 days of solitude so it seems as if this book is set after. lol leave it to me to start off out of order but i don’t think it matters
I’m also still deciding whether I want to read it in English or in Spanish. It’s poetic either way, judging by Chronicles of a Death Foretold, but I just know it hits different in the original language.
I was going to start off strong with 100 Years of Solitude, which is one of the banned novels- but truthfully I’m scared as I was named after a character in the book. I already have a copy in English and in Spanish, just warming up with Chronicles of a Death Foretold. #booksky
As a Colombian, considering the times we’re living in and the fact that some of Gabriel Garcia Marquez’ work has been banned in US schools- I’m diving into his work this year. I decided to start light with Chronicles of a Death Foretold but I’m already emotional. #booksky
Kristi Noem is a stone-cold liar who has zero credibility.
There is nothing to suggest the shooting of an unarmed woman in Minneapolis was justified.
This heinous killing must be criminally investigated to the full extent of the law.
Happy day of the three wizard kings
I’m so terrified for Colombia. I’m terrified for my family. I’m terrified for my homeland and my people. It hit me tonight as I read Petro’s words as he prepares for the worst… now I can’t stop crying.
Literal.
Did you call your representatives today to ask them to stop the military escalation in Venezuela? It took me literally less than 5 minutes with the 5 calls app.
You can easily use the 5 calls app to find and call your state reps to express your alarm about the US strikes in Venezuela and other issues. The app will provide you with a script and you can call directly from the app. Takes 5 minutes.

All right. There's the confirmation. Call your US reps and tell them to impeach. Call your US senators and tell them to publicly support impeachment. blacksky.community/profile/did:...
You can find your US reps and senators here: reps.fyi
If you call now, you'll get an answering machine and you can leave a message. A great thing to do if you're nervous about talking to someone. Just give your name, your zip code, and demand they impeach Trump for illegally invading Venezuela.
They’re just doing what they please. Rubio has been wanting to get his grubby little hands on Venezuela for a long time.
Democrats need to strongly and uncompromisingly demand that Trump is removed from office for illegally starting a war for oil that benefits no one.
Everytime I think about this I feel so much anger towards the people that were on their puritan high horses behind a keyboard refusing to vote for her. Idiots. Look at us now.
The most ironic thing is that Maria Corina Machado was so far up trump’s ass and now he’s delegitimizing her 😭 as if the Latinos for trump didn’t have enough material to understand that he is not and will never be for us… they still won’t get it though.
They are wasting taxpayer dollars and putting military personnel and civilians at risk unnecessarily.
It’s because of gangs and dictatorship but the US govt is besties with the president of El Salvador who calls himself the “worlds coolest dictator” and has ties to ms13? war crimes on war crimes, contradictions, cognitive dissonance. I’m dizzy and terrified.
They bombed Venezuelan land. They got maduro. Trump is saying Colombian president Petro better “watch his ass”… allegedly due to narcoterrorism but the president of Honduras who was convicted of smuggling tons of coke into the US got pardoned?

Ever since I found out the origin of “high body count hair” I can’t look at Angie the same. Ugh. I’m glad Brittany copyrighted it 😭 #rhoslc
All right I’m going to need this flu to wrap it tf up I’m tired of being sick
