This isn’t commonly known but one of the rings of hell is actually being in a fandom wherein the popular bloggers have the worst opinions known to man that everyone else parrots

#Will Miller it's getting called out here haha

@cheesybadgers I pictured your epilogue Javier Peña EXACTLY like those pics of him with the beige shirt

I AM INCOHERENT

#Like it IS him #pedro pascal

The “he was kinda cute when he was young lol” to “I need to fuck that old man nasty style” pipeline

#Good thing about Tumblr is that I can come here and answer Colin Firth to something like that #And it is what it is #Or I could say Mads Mikkelsen #Or Billy Burke

star wars fans really just make anything up

#I have so many thoughts on this 😂😂😂😂

[mariamariquinha]

John Mayer in CSI??????

#I completely erased it from my memory

[mariamariquinha]

#I love when people go over platforms like TikTok to do things like that #Stop spreading misinformation

[mariamariquinha]

Yes, I do! And I think you bringing that up it's REALLY important. You're doing great and you should speak up about it every chance you can!

@mariamariquinha & I were talking about how the Narcos writers wrote Javier Peña so badly & racist as that old Don Juan stereotype, unfortunately, Latino men are seen outside of Latin America. How brilliantly @cheesybadgers reminded me how many fans only think about Javier's sex scenes and make Gifs of it. As I'm not that attached to Carillo, I never noticed, but I thought here, I think the character was also seen as a Colombian, huh? Maria & I noticed, as the Latinas with the most followers don't talk about how the stereotype of some of Pedro's characters are totally racist, as we noticed, because it's not comfortable for them to argue with so many followers that they could lose.

I hope we can discuss more about how AMERICAN CULTURE is racist, even when they thinks they are not.

My community here on Tumblr, at least with the people I interact with, is very small. Even my stories are small and I'm not that active a creator despite being a frequent user.

My contact with people from other countries or creators from other countries is mostly limited to the stories they tell here. Fanfic, likes, etc., and having been on this journey for YEARS, I can say with certainty that my concerns about how we deal with non-white or, rather, non-American characters are evident, but I also see the issue as something tiring. Everyone here is an adult and knows that what is or isn't racism; at this point, anyone who continues to produce things with sexualized content is purely lazy or uninterested on doing the bare minimum (which is quite common).

Fanfics are cultural manifestations, whether you like them or not. What you post may be entertainment, but even in entertainment you can have a little conscience.

Looks like Wattpad is having a NSFW purge. People are talking about it on r/wattpad and r/fanfiction. Anyone here use wattpad and notice? I wonder what the scale and criteria they are using is.

Oh boy. AO3, brace yourself!

when I see something dated 2019 I think “oh that’s not too long ago” and then I remember that 2019 was not only five years ago but those five years have somehow contained several lifetimes

Writing Update

This post is out of respect for everyone who has been following me since I started sharing my stories here. I'll leave it pinned on the profile so don't worry!

Versos de Placer

I'm already well ahead of the last chapter, but I haven't touched the story in months for reasons of: I'm very tired. At some point I will finish it (I still need a good ending) and until that happens, I have no news about it. As soon as I have it, I'll let you know!

(i don't know why i used this gif but it somehow always makes me aware of how unhinged he is lol)

Bossa Nova

This one is closer to being published, but also without a date. Once I finish Versos de Placer, I'll be more comfortable just focusing on it and IT WILL BE THE LAST 'LONG FANFIC' AROUND HERE (at least for a loooong time). I'm experimenting with some ideas about it, revisiting what I've already done and what the next steps will be, but you can count on more Benny!

Narcos

When you go to my profile, you will see that Javier Peña and Steve Murphy are marked 'no longer writing for', and that is… the truth. Maybe in the future I'll come back to them, but I need the right idea and the right mindset, as this particular fandom is curiously complicated. Their stories are still available!

Requests

I'll close them here. Yeah, well, there's not much of a secret, so just understand that I don't have the constant writing capacity to meet demands in this regard. Call me old-fashioned, but I like to believe in a story instead of just writing it. I'll leave this in my bio too!

AO3

Since the end of last year I have been studying the possibility of starting to work more with AO3. It's a platform that I know little about, so I want to make sure I know how to use it before I start producing there. You will also find out when this will happen.

Last but not least... New characters

Everything I did outside the box (with Gurney, Dave York and Mike Duarte) were more writing experiments. I'm always open to doing something like that, as is the case with James Wilson (which I've been maturing and CONSIDERING), but for now the only characters I write for are:

Alfie Solomons (Peaky Blinders)

Horacio Carrillo (Narcos)

Will Miller (Triple Frontier)

Jonathan Levy (Scenes from a Marriage)

Benny Magalon (Den of Thieves)

Frank Castle (The Punisher)

Some always appear more than others, but they are all still in my orbit! Who doesn't love a mix of ambiguous police officers with ex-military men who need therapy and a dash of divorced university professors?

If you have any questions, my DM and ask box are open! 😉
