8:30PM

Al: I'm home.

Missy: You are! With plenty of time to spare, thank you sweetheart. I know you think curfew is annoying but it gives me such peace of mind to know you're home. Hungry? There should be some leftovers.

Al: Uh no, I already ate. Can I talk to the both of you? About something important.

Missy: Of course!

Al: This is something that I've known for a really long time. It'll probably make a lot of sense, too! I don't want to hide about this anymore. So please keep an open mind.

Missy: You're not pregnant, are you? Because young lady-

Al: No. I'm not pregnant... And I'm not a young lady either. Mom, Dad, I'm trans.

Meanwhile

Fatima: Transgender?

José: Yes.

Fatima: Is there a different name you want to be called?

José: Oh uh, no? I haven't really come up with one yet. I mean one day probably... But I like my name since it's Papi's name too. I suppose I have always felt it's more his name than mine.

Fatima: Ah, perhaps a little. When you find something that speaks to you more, let me know.

José: I will. But... You're ok with this? You're not asking a ton of questions. What, did you somehow already know?

Fatima: [chuckles lightly] I did not. But I'm glad you told me. I never want you to pretend to be someone you aren't. I did have an inkling that you might have brought home a boyfriend one day to meet me rather than a girlfriend.

José: [laughs] What if I bring home one of each?

Fatima: Bring as many as you like, so long as they treat you well.

José: … But that's all? You're not angry? Concerned?

Fatima: Now why would I ever be angry? That you're being honest with me? If you couldn't be honest with me it would mean I'd failed you as a mother. My only concern would be if you were unhappy. You know that.

José: I know. Thanks mama.

Fatima: Of course, mija.

9:13 PM

Al: Sh-she kicked me out. I di-didn't know where else to go [sniffles].

Μερικά από τα χαρακτικά του José Guadalupe Posada στο Ένας κόσμος ανάποδα του Eduardo Galeano

Οι μηχανισμοί της καταναλωτικής ισοπέδωσης υπονομεύουν την αξιοθαύμαστη δύναμη των ανθρώπων να αναγνωρίζονται στις διαφορές τους, κι αυτές να τους συνδέουν. Το καλύτερο στοιχείο του κόσμου αυτού είναι η πολλαπλότητα των κόσμων που εμπεριέχει, οι διαφορετικές μελωδίες της ζωής, τα βάσανα και τα χρώματά της: οι χίλιοι δυο τρόποι να ζούμε, να μιλάμε, να τρώμε, να εργαζόμαστε, να χορεύουμε, να παίζουμε, να αγαπάμε, να υποφέρουμε και να γιορτάζουμε, τους οποίους ανακαλύψαμε στο πέρασμα των αιώνων.

Cinzento

"Lisboa, esse vulto constelado de luzes frias do outro lado do rio é um animal sedentário que se estende a todo o país. É cinzento e finge paz. Atenção, achtung, mesmo abatido pela chuva, atenção porque circulam dentro dele mil filamentos vorazes, teias de brigadas de trânsito, esquadras de polícia, tocas de legionários, posto da GNR, e em cada estação dessas, caserna ou guichet, está a imagem oficial de Salazar [...]"

José Cardoso Pires, "Balada da Praia dos Cães"; fotografia de Eduardo Gageiro.

I've seen the movie about 4 times. Now, seeing it with good restoration. First time since my dad died. It's not the same without him to share it with.

My mom has her own interesting takes on it. She's got a retroactive crush on Franco Nero.😅 It's still as good as I remember it.

Learning mechanics is easier than learning male psychology. You can figure out a bike, but you can never figure out a man.

Un uomo con una buona storia è quasi un re

“Teoria generale dell’oblio”, J.E. Agualusa

[iishmael]

I wasn’t expecting that about one in ten books alters my brain chemistry while doing this “reading a book from every country” challenge. Holy fuck Angola’s “The book of chameleons” by José Eduardo Agualusa is absolutely stunning breathtaking amazing. How is this not an international bestseller on the same level as Franz Kafka and Mario Vargas Llosa. I’m a slut for modernism!! Not that Agualusa is technically a modernist, the book was published in 2004, but fucking hell it’s Kafkaesque, it has an unreliable narrator, the dream sequences. The themes. The subversiveness of gender, the identity issues. EXQUISITE
