To say Latinos are people of colour is to say that white Latinos are somehow less Latino than their non-white counterparts.
Latinos can be literally any race.
To say that Latinos are a race when we’re not implies that we’re a monolithic group of people that “all look the same”.
Rio Grande do Sul is currently going through extreme flooding and the government is basically doing nothing about it.

What happens if I kiss Leo on the cheek...?(つ・・)つ
(Sorry if I disturbed you too much...)
I couldn't not draw both versions. Recalling how young Leo was always so "EEW!" whenever he saw people expressing romantic love, But I imagine him being king of confidence as an adult.
I bring a sort of "can't read social cues" vibe to every social situation that I can't tell if anyone likes or not
Edit please stop going on about how sometimes cishet people say stuff is platonic to be queerphobic. No one is more aware of this truth thanI. This is a post about aro erasure and demonization over headcanons in fandom.
Stop equating arospec concepts and identities to queerphobic fuckery pulled by cishet amanormative culture.
Question why a post about aro people wanting to exist and explore ourselves through fictional fun makes you think about bigotry.
reader x turtles doodle dump because i simply do not have it in me to clean these up
bonus raph one. it wasn't gn so I wasn't sure whether to include it but hey ho! he deserves soft love also
I really loved Because You Loved Me and id love to have fluff with all the boys, sorry its not specific, id just love to see u write whatever hehe ^w^;
Future Boys Fluff
F!RotTMNT x gn!reader
Warnings: fluff, kissing, being sweet, the boys are down bad
A/N: I need more future boys content fr... Wanna kiss and hold them, give them good scratches... This will be the last double posting day for a while. :)
Donnie is very very busy
He will let you kiss him when you deliver things to his lab
But if you manage to kiss him when he's really frustrated with something...
Donnie will pull you into his lap and bury his face in your neck
If you have moment to spare, feel free to crawl into his lap and cuddle while he works
He enjoys when you kiss his neck and face
He'll return the favor, pressing kisses to your neck
When he's free or taking a break?
You bet this man will find go looking for you
He'll snatch you away from whatever you're doing
Donnie can't sleep without you next to him
So if you're not at base, he's working in his lab waiting for your return
Leo is running around all the time
He's trying to make sure everything runs smoothly
So he doesn't really get a chance to be with you
He is amazed you even agreed to be with him considering it's like you two never see each other
If he manages to get a short break he'll run to you
Pulling you into some dark room or closet
Leo really can't get enough of you
If you walk by or give him something, his hands are on you
Tapping and tugging you closer
He normally can't sleep without you
But if he's been up for days on end, he can pass out once his face it's the pillow
When he's able to cuddle in bed with you, you leave with fresh marks on your neck and shoulders
If he's not able to stay in bed with you, he leaves you little notes
They're sometimes short, other times they're fairly long
They're full of inside jokes, love, admiration, and puns
He's also running around
But Mikey is taking care of sick people and food
While also practicing his mystic arts
So he's a busy guy
But unlike Leo, he has a bit more freedom
Mikey will find you and pull you into an empty room
His brothers have made sure to message him before they find him
If you guys have tasks in the same area, Mikey has his hand in yours
Or an arm around you
He touches you every chance he gets
He'll kiss your cheek in passing
Squeeze your hand before you part ways for the day
While Mikey can sleep without you next to him, he much prefers you being there
He's busy training
He has his days filled with adults, kids, literally everyone
He gets a bit worn out
But he always looks forward to the time between classes
Cause you'll be waiting and he can have you all to himself for a few minutes
During these times what happened depends on the day
Good days, Raph is picking you up and kissing you like his life depends on it
On bad days, Raph will just hold you and let his hands caress your body
When he's able to take a bigger break, he's finding you
He's telling you how amazing you are, kissing your face, holding you close
Like Mikey, Raph can sleep without you
But does he want to? No.
You’ve showed in a few of your drabbles and fics the boys’ more instinctive behaviors when it comes to the people they like (like Leo with his tapping/claw fluttering). Do you think you could tell us a bit more about how you think each of the boys act differently around the person they like due to their instincts and more “turtle-like” behavior? I think it’s super cute and cool that you try to incorporate those traits into your fics! I’d love to see more of it 💞💞💞
꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖♡ ;; small habits that you've picked up from the turtles
taglist ;; @apostlephobe
req ;; yes/no
gn reader—they/them prns
warnings ;; swearing
raph ;;
— not just because he's an alligator snapping turtle, but i think he would display a lot of cuteness/affectionate aggression!!
— i.e. playful bites, playfighting (very, VERY careful playfighting. he is a big boy and can crush you easily.)
— he deffo chirps and churrs, but it's absolutely the deepest out of the brothers. like it's SCARY how deep his churrs can get.
— on the topic of sounds, he deffo makes like dog-whining sounds when he's upset :( like the high-pitched ones (he makes them whenever he's really REALLY worried or just upset)
— big tail go whoosh. mostly sways when he's nervous/happy!!!! he loves u but stay back when he's REALLY happy mans can knock you into your feet by accident :(
— do not the tail unless u tell him first + get permission. easy way to death is to touch his tail without asking bc his first reaction will be to swing it HARD (not intentionally) and it WILL give you a concussion.
leo ;;
— prone to chirping. that's it. loves to chatter and prattle on, especially about how much he loves you, and will only ever stop if you give him kisses + affection, and will do so with soft chirps <3
— ALSO CHURRS!! but gets embarrassed about it and tries to do it in private/ when only you are around (p.s. he churrs almost all the time when y'all r alone)
— like mentioned in the post, he flutters and taps his claws!! this one is more instinctive so he gets HELLA embarrassed when y'all r doing whatever and his hands go to your face and gently tap or wiggle against your cheeks
— (melts if you do it back to him)
— y'all seen those photos of red-eared sliders riding on top of softshells?? yeah that but you. he will LAY ON YOU any chance he gets homeboy loves to cuddle
— his tail isn't as big as raph's, but deffo is as expressive, it wags alot, mostly when he's happy,, but like his churrs, he normally tries to control himself and his reactions so around others, his tail will twitch a little around you, but it's full-on wagging when ur alone :]]
donnie ;;
- homeboy growls more often than actual churrs, but u can BET UR ASS that as soon as u say sumn as little as 'wow, that's so cool!' or 'ooh, ur so smart!' to him HE LOSES IT homeboy becomes a chirruped, churring mess
- obv he's preferential w physical touch, but is in heaven when u massage his shoulders after a long day of missions/work (shrimp posture) and he subconsciously churrs (despite him denying it)
- when feeling needy/ in a lovey-dovey mood, he tends to nudge ur head w his, veryvery gently
- so much so that it can be a silent way (cough cough bad boy image) of him asking for affection/ attention from u w/o having to actually ask
- unlike raph and leo. does not. NOT like having his tail touched he will bite and snap at u outta pure instinct.
- SPEAKING OF WHICH gentle bites and deffo some playfighting bc softshells r aggressive but he loves u a lot :]] also when annoyed/agitated/threatened. neck. he turns around/ stretches his neck (not much) to look bigger + more intimidating (it just looks silly)
mikey ;;
- straight out the gate we all know he's affectionate and touchy asf. i know i said it for all of them but.
- PLAYFIGHTING!!!!!;;;;!!!!:!!!:: but he don't hold back. he is BITING he is SCRATCHING he is PLAYING DIRTY!!!!!!!!!!!! (he learned it from leo)
- tends to just. bumpbump nudgenudge u when he wants affection (or whines for it bc #youngest-child-syndrome)
- considering how talkative and very open-w-his-feelings he is, he's probbles the most comfortable openly chirping and churring around you, he does not care bc he wants u to know u make him happy/comfy enough to be able to do those sounds :))
- the tail!! wags like CONSTANTLY but similar to raph's, don't touch unless given permission (he bites)
LUV FROM ;; CUPEZ

I'm gonna rant because I am TIRED of gringos talking about brazilian politics without having the decency to research about it
No, "brazil banning x/twitter" is NOT THE SAME as the US trying to ban Tiktok. The US want to ban tiktok simply because it's chinese. Y'all can cry about personal data all you want, but in the end of the day it is because Tiktok is not from the US.
Brazil IS NOT BANNING TWITTER. Brazil wants Twitter to get rid of accounts that organized/fomented the attempted coup last year - which is, in fact, a crime. Elon refused to obey the SOVEREIGN DECISION OF BRAZIL, and is threatening to leave brazilian market (good riddance). As y'all can see: No, here in Brazil it is not "freedom of speech" when your speech is a CRIME. Same goes for racism, xenophobia, homophobia and so on. I am truly sorry that the US as a country has brainwashed most of their citizens to believe that freedom of speech is the human right to rule above all else, including human decency.
What I see online is obviously far right people talking shit about it, but my God if I see another goddamn liberal talk about my country the same patronizing way I am seeing right now, I might as well talk shit about yours too. The difference being that I do not see my country as the paragon of perfection and center of the world, contrary to some if not most US citizens
Fuck you to anyone who gets bothered by any english mistake I made. Got mad? LEARN PORTUGUESE THEN
