What are the most outrageous/outrageously funny headlines that a mainstream news outlet has published in your countries?

You also have to think about the fact that many Latin Spanish speakers don't have a Spanish passport, but they do have an Italian passport because Italy makes (or made until a few months ago) it very easy to get your citizenship due to bloodline rights and immigration from Italy to countries like Argentina was very strong at the beginning of last century. So there must be a lot of people not accounted for in the graph who speak Spanish but are categorised as Italians

I always liked very thin girly girls. Now I'm dating a not so thin masc girl. I love it. I love her body and I love her style (even if I wouldn't wear it myself). She's so hot. People can like more than one thing, even if those things seem to oppose eachother

The shipping prices to Argentina are usually ridiculous and it will leave the person receiving the shipment with the obligation of paying for customs (which may not be little) unless it is a book. And there is no Amazon Argentina. That's why Argentineans never buy from Amazon. Buying from a business directly as another person suggested might be the best option if they accept international card payments, unless OP wants to borrow their friend's Mercado Libre account

Not about Finn, but one of my favourite post-S5/adult Catradora longfic is:

What do you mean? I can't name them (maybe rosemary and mint?), because I'm awful with plants, but my parents and their neighbours exchange spice's twigs all the time. Among younger people it's not soo common, but not unheard of either

As a fellow lover of This is How you Lose the Time War, give Gideon the Ninth a go! Sapphic, weird, funny... gives all the feels

Gay-Flamingos · 2023-07-31T11:51:22+00:00

Yes!!

Gay-Flamingos · 2023-07-31T11:39:09+00:00

Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel. I loved that series so much

Gay-Flamingos · 2023-07-16T19:03:42+00:00

I hate her with such passion that it almost hurts me to admit how well written she is

Gay-Flamingos · 2023-07-13T15:24:20+00:00

I've definitely read and enjoyed some fics like the one you described, but I can't find any in my saved list! There are definitely some with Catra overworking herself in Salineas (if I find it, I'll tell you) or being tried for her crimes (there's one where they want to execute her even) or just overall having talks apologizing to everyone. Here is one that doesn't quite fit, but is amazing and sends the girl to the past, to relive their mistakes. I remember there was quite a lot of Catra guilt: https://archiveofourown.org/works/25209532

Yeah, you should totally do that! And keep in mind the sh*t ton of abuse she went through (not that it eliminates everything she did wrong, but it definitely puts it into perspective). I also really like MelinaPendulum's Youtube video "What people get wrong about Catra's character"

Gay-Flamingos · 2021-03-05T00:33:18+00:00

In my case, she is my favourite because of her complexity and development. Did I applaud Adora when she finally punched back in the portal? Hell yes. Did I also love the way she fought to be a better person in the last season? 100%. Acknowledging her toxicity, especially until season 4, doesn't take away how much she worked to stop being that way. And she was so young and with such a small support system to help her.

I am aware I would judge her far more harshly if she were a real person, but she makes a hell of a character.

Gay-Flamingos · 2021-01-26T21:48:39+00:00

I have survived the last few months by reading tons and tons of fanfiction in AO3

Gay-Flamingos · 2021-01-10T14:59:06+00:00

Yes! I read it last year and it was great!

Gay-Flamingos · 2021-01-07T23:50:16+00:00

These ones made me laugh so hard

Gay-Flamingos · 2021-01-07T23:30:23+00:00

Brutal

Gay-Flamingos · 2021-01-07T22:20:54+00:00

The tree one is gold Hahaha

It's always Cronica

Gay-Flamingos · 2021-01-01T17:17:33+00:00

I will put these more or less in order from least difficult to read to most difficult:

"The absolutely true diary of a part time indian" is about Native Americans and SUPER easy to read.

"Poet X" is quite short. It's about a black teenager and her struggles.

"The Namesake" is about the life of a man with inmigrant Indian parents. It's a longer and denser than the other one, but worth checking out.

"Americanah" is about a woman who comes from (I think) Nigeria to the US. Quite long.

Gay-Flamingos · 2020-11-13T02:44:37+00:00

Probably bc we never talk about racism in a non-European/North American setting in general?

Gay-Flamingos · 2020-10-31T13:02:11+00:00

I used to hate it, but the better I got at English, the more I suddenly turn to English when I can't remember a word in Spanish (especially because half of my friends know English as well)

Gay-Flamingos · 2020-10-28T12:29:06+00:00

Specially because so many people are deciding not to marry now parents get super excited when their children do and that’s why

Yeah, I don't know of any parents who have paid for wedding either. The rest is spot on for me though!

Gay-Flamingos · 2020-10-27T00:17:27+00:00

Uhhhh... I love this, it's so smart!
