Throwback to last year at the Louvre when I saw a little girl sitting on the ground looking up to the statue of the goddess Athena. Probably the most Renaissance-like and powerful picture I ever took.
this morning NASA abandoned their mars rover Opportunity (aka Oppy) because it (she) got hit by a storm on Mars and it knocked her camera and wheels out and her last words to the team were “my battery is low and it is getting cold”. I know she’s a machine but I’m devastated. Oppy is the one who discovered water on Mars. RIP oppy ily space baby

The fifth season - N. K. Jemisin (spanish edition)
Finish it! And it was incredibly good. Can't wait to begin the second book in the series!
I'm a huge fan of science-fiction and I used to really enjoy fantasy as well, and specially the one with maps at the beginning and new and different worlds, Tolkien style.
But I have kept away from them because it got boring to me. I began to feel like it was always the same: medieval Europe with male white protagonists and dragons or magic.
This book is different. It takes the same base and it innovates. And at the same time gives voice to all the characters that usually don't even have name.
I could talk for hours about it, but I'm terrible at putting words together coherently, so: Really-really good book.
