I'm Spanish, from Spain, in Europe.
Not South American, Central American or a Mexican.

Let's not forget that the kingdoms which united to create Spain fought the Muslims for almost 700 years during the Reconquista

My dad was born in a small village in southern Spain, and he told me that a German moved there after the end of WW2. So the entire village called him "the Nazi" until he passed away

I remember reading a news article just before the invasion where Ukrainians claimed it made no sense to protect Chernobyl, since the whole area was radioactive anyways. And after the invasion, reading that Russian troops had to flee Chernobyl due to radiation poisoning made me laugh quite hard

Yeah Spain is known for late lunches and dinners. If I told my friends to meet for dinner any time earlier than 9PM they'd think I'm crazy, same thing if I asked them to have lunch earlier than 2PM

I know not with what weapons world war III will be fought. But world war IV will be fought with the government in the end and the European Union will not allow us to pay for our service.

My grandpa had a series of illnesses throughout the end of his life that made him lose almost all his memory, and he could barely speak by the end. For example, any time I went to visit him he wouldn't know who I was. But one time, my cousin gave him a laptop and told him to write something down, and to everyone's surprise he wrote the full names of his 3 children and the words "I'm very far away". I couldn't believe it when my cousin told the rest of the family about it, memory is such a weird thing

The negotiators can't do informal meetings through Zoom because they may be recorded against their will so they prefer not to take the risk. And doubt me all you want, I learnt this fact from my professor who has been in several climate negotiations

Most of the solutions agreed in international climate negotiations are not actually agreed upon in formal meetings but in informal ones, as it allows members from all states to talk more chillingly about how to solve the issues at hand. Did they need to fly all those private jets to Glasgow? Fuck no, but all countries do need a large representation in the COP

I did debate for about 6 months, and this is the first few things that they teach you before you start making up arguments. It's super useful to know this, and it also helps when hearing politicians' arguments to elect them

People in Spain get shocked when I tell them I can cook, clean, and iron my clothes by myself because they don't expect a young guy to do all of that by himself. Then I tell them that I lived alone, so I had to all of that or I would live in shambles
