[ID: Vico Ortiz miming along to the audio. They have added the caption “Me in every interview for Our Flag Means Death ️⚧️☠️️”. When it says “chaos”, they bring the camera closer to their face dramatically. The “gay alpaca” they hold up is a picture of the Jolly Roger. /end ID]
The Spanish fans of Our Flag Means Death pushed HBO hard enough for them alter the Spanish dub ao that Jim’s pronouns are “elle!” Huge win for Spanish-speaking NBs everywhere!
OFMDesp: After much insistence by the Spanish fandom of Our Flag Means Death, @HBOMaxES you have correctly dubbed Jim’s pronouns!!!! Their pronouns are “elle/le”!!!! Listening to elle on screen has been incredible for all of us.
Sara Pérez (Spanish voice actor for Jim): Being part of this makes me very excited. Jim’s pronouns are “elle/le”. And point. I refused to let them dub as “ella” or “él.” I am very proud to have managed to include this in the dubbing, we are on the right track. It took me a lot of heartache to get this, but I’m so glad they finally let me put it on. Step by step. I made the adjustment with the same love and respect that was put into the original script. Thank you very much @david_jenkins__
Vico Ortiz: I LOVE IT!!! THAT IS!!! Wow super proud of you!! I adore you!!
[ID: Image one is a reply by @SaritaAdam that reads: “Did you mean to write "elle” or “el” ? Just asking to know if they change it for a masculine pronon or a nb one.“ The following images are multiple tweets as translated above. The original text is transcribed in the following Spanish ID. End ID]
[DI: La primera imagen es una respuesta de @SaritaAdam que dice: "¿Quisiste escribir "elle” or “el”? Solo estoy preguntando para saber si ellos lo cambiaron por un pronombre masculino o uno NB.“ Las imágenes siguientes son tuits como los traducidos arriba. Dicen:
piratas y mamarrachos @OFMDEsp: Despues de mucho insistir por parte del fandom espanol de Our Flag Means Death, @HBOMaxES ha doblado correctamente los pronombres de Jim!!!! Sus pronombres son elle!!!! Escuchar el elle en pantalla ha sido increible para todes nosotres. @V_Vico_Ortiz ❤❤❤
Sara Perez @sapetrad: Formar parte de esto me hace muchisima ilusiOn. Los pronombres de Jim son "elle/le”. Y punto. Me negaba a dejar que se doblaran como “ella” o “el”. Estoy muy orgullosa de haber conseguido incluir esto en el doblaje, vamos por buen camino. @V_VicoOrtiz
Sara Perez @sapetrad: Replying to Pofmdesp and @V Vico Ortiz Me costo muchos dolores de cabeza conseguir esto, pero me alegro muchisimo de que al final me dejaran ponerlo. Pasito a pasito.
Sara Perez @sapetrad: el ajuste con el mismo carino y respeto que le pusieron al guion original. Muchas gracias @david_jenkins__ ❤️

The Syed Family Xmas Eve Game Night (2021) dir. Fawzia Mirza, 11 min.
The film stars Kausar Mohammed as Noor, a queer Muslim woman who brings her Puerto Rican partner Luz (Vico Ortiz) home to a family gathering for the first time. The film was written by Mohammed, partially based on her own life.
“Well, I have two [older] sisters whom I love very, very, much. I also have a partner that I love very much, my girlfriend. The first Christmas that I introduced my partner to my middle sister, everything was great. But being there and having the anxiety of bringing someone you love to meet someone you look up to so much, it had my mind thinking up all these things that could go wrong. A Taboo game going wrong was one of them, so was a chai battle. That’s how I came up with the idea for this short.” -Kausar Mohammed[x]
If my English Is not completely off Vico is doing auditions for new roles
Just in case someone wants to tell me again to „not worry about OFMD season 2“. Two main actors of the show are already doing new things and one side character has already said he will not return.
We are as good as cancelled ♀️ I am so tired of it, I do not even have the energy to be angry about it
