I Have Talked About Videogames On Some Occasions, But Not Many Times.

I listened again to my favourite album of Mägo de Oz (Ira Dei) and the instrumental part of the beginning from minute 1:58 of the album reminds me of a battle against a Pokemon boss 😂😂. Is it just me or does it happen to someone else?

Link to the song, which is called Jerusalem D.C.

By the way, I love the beginning of this album, especially the beginning of this instrumental part, which is Celtic-like.

Ya subo las primeras cuatro páginas del cómic (en realidad la primera página es la portada). No pasa gran cosa, y me gustaría dibujar más rápido, pero hago lo que puedo 😬

I've uploaded the first four pages of the comic (actually the first page is the cover). Almost nothing happens, and I'd like to draw faster, but I do what I can 😬

Me gusta hacer escenas largas, con espacios intermedios entre diálogos, porque así la historia no queda tan acelerada y forzada. He aquí el principio:

I like to do long scenes, with spaces in between dialogues, because this way the story is not so rushed and forced. Here is the beginning:

He puesto un link a la siguiente publicación, que son las siguientes cuatro páginas, para que se pueda leer de continuo.

I've put a link to the next publication, which is the next four pages, so that you can read the whole.

Sé que solo con estas páginas no cuenta mucho, pero una vez que la historia transcurra será otra cosa, espero 😅

I know it doesn't say a lot with just these pages, but once the story unfolds it'll be something else, I hope 😅

Y repito por si alguien no se ha enterado: si alguien quiere la versión en español, que me lo diga y lo subo

And I repeat in case someone isn't aware of it: if anyone wants the Spanish version, let me know and I'll upload it

Así queda. Me ha venido de lujo que la carpeta tuviera una parte para pone una tarjeta con el nombre del dueño.

This is how it looks. It was great that the folder had a part to put a card with the name of the owner on it.

Mi impresora es daltónica 😭😭, no distingue los tonos de azul que hay en el dibujo...

My printer is colorblind 😭😭, it can't distinguish the shades of blue that are on the drawing...

Obviamente, no es lo mismo color luz (en lo que de basa el dibujo digital) que el color pigmento (en papel). Sé que hay muchos programas que tienen implementado el color pigmento en su programa para imprimir los dibujos, pero en el programa que uso en el móvil no tiene. No sé si es por eso que no capta los colores o directamente es la impresora 😆

Obviously, light colour (on which digital drawing is based) is not the same as pigment colour (on paper). I know that there are many programs that have in their system implemented the pigment colour to print the drawings, but the program I use on my mobile doesn't. I don't know if that's why it doesn't capture the colours or if it's only my printer 😆.

No me desagrada el resultado, pero no me convence

I don't dislike the result, but I'm not convinced

Después de un tiempo, aquí llegan las siguientes páginas del cómic.

After a while, here are the next pages of the comic.

Es hora de ponerse serios, Spock quiere saber ya qué es lo que pasó

It's time to get serious, Spock wants to know what happened

Siento volver a retrasarme en subir las siguientes páginas del cómic 😓. Mi idea, si alguien no se ha dado cuenta, era subir algo cada dos días, e ir turnando el cómic con dibujos random. Y, bueno, hace dos días tocaba el cómic y no lo había acabado aún (en realidad, si me pongo en serio, podría subir cada día el cómic, pero me distraigo con cualquier cosa).

Sorry to be late again in uploading the next pages of the comic 😓. My idea, if anyone hasn't noticed, was to upload something every two days, and rotate the comic with random drawings. And, well, two days ago the comic was due and I hadn't finished it yet (actually, if I'm serious, I could upload the comic every day, but I get distracted by anything).

Pero no he desaprovechado el tiempo, he estado aprendiendo a usar el mod de Minecraft de Custom NPCs, tengo que decir que está muy muy completo, y eso que lo que he visto es muy poco. Quizás suba algún vídeo enseñándolo.

But I haven't wasted my time, I've been learning how to use the Minecraft Custom NPCs mod, I have to say that it's very very complete, and what I've seen is very little. Maybe I'll upload a video showing it.

También he escrito algunas ideas de un fic del que me gustaría subir el primer capítulo antes de que acabe agosto, ya que la temática es de verano. Es de Spones (cómo no, este blog está dedicado a Spones). Lo explicaré en este otro post.

I've also written some ideas for a fic that I'd like to upload the first chapter before the end of August, as the theme is summer. It's about Spones (of course, this blog is dedicated to Spones). I'll explain it in this other post.

Además, he estado practicando cómo dibujar en el ordenador (con una tableta gráfica que han comprado a mi hermana). Como digo, he estado practicando, porque necesito practicar mucho 😆. Se me da fatal, pero hay una mejoría con respecto a las horribles creaciones que hacía hace tiempo en el móvil (nunca llegué a guardarlas). A lo mejor me animo a subir alguna de mis monstruosidades digitales.

Also, I've been practising how to draw on the computer (with a graphic tablet that my sister has been bought). As I say, I've been practicing, because I need to practice a lot 😆. I'm terrible at it, but there's an improvement compared to the horrible creations I used to make some time ago on my mobile (I never saved them). Maybe I'll upload some of my digital monstrosities.

Y he visto algunos videojuegos de miedo. Aquí tengo que aclarar algo. No me gusta el terror. Sin embargo, he descubierto dos juegos con una historia estupendísima. Además, tienen sentido científico. Se llaman Man of Medan y Little Hope. Son uno "continuación" del otro. En realidad la historia no tiene nada que ver, pero siguen una trilogía o algo así. La siguiente continuación se estrena este año. No dan mucho miedo, lo único sustos y tensión. Repito, la historia me ha encantado, sobre todo Little Hope. Mi hermana me recomendó también Until Dawn. Este no me ha convencido. Hablo de este juego en otro post, por si alguien lo ha visto jugar a alguien o lo ha jugado. Lo explico aquí.

And I've seen some horror videogames. Here I have to clarify something. I don't like horror. However, I have discovered two games with a great story. Moreover, they make scientific sense. They are called Man of Medan and Little Hope. They are a "continuation" of each other. Actually the story has nothing to do with each other, but they follow a trilogy or something like that. The next sequel is coming out this year. They're not very scary, just give scares and tension. I repeat, I loved the story, especially Little Hope. My sister also recommended Until Dawn to me. I'm not convinced by this one. I talk about this game in other post, if anyone has seen anyone play it or played it. I explain it here.

Y por supuesto, un videojuego singular, increíble y muy bien hecho todo, la historia, los gráficos, los personajes... que también he visto es Detroit Become Human 🥰

And of course, a singular video game, amazing and very well done everything, the story, the graphics, the characters... that I've also seen is Detroit Become Human 🥰

I'm just rebloging this because of the lack of research I see here, especially this last reblog.

Hi all, I'm a Spanish woman. I was born in Spain and lived all my life in this country.

I'm a lot offended (and I'm sure every Spanish person who reads it will be). If you don't know about Spain, don't say anything (@lightdancer1)

When classifications of this kind appear, it is very important to know the criteria that have been taken into account to establish a classification; depending on the values chosen, the classification can change considerably. These are the criteria offered by the World Health Organisation:

Patients' rights and waiting lists

Long waiting lists lead to the chronification of illnesses and even deaths due to the failure to provide the required medical service in time.

Prevention

We usually think of healthcare as acting exclusively in the face of an already acquired disease, but these rankings also take into account prevention programmes and all the actions carried out to prevent transmition of illnesses in the population.

Access to free healthcare

Even if the medical service provided is excellent, if there is no service that reaches the majority of the population, one cannot speak of quality medical services.

Eficiency

The capacity of a public medical service to provide solutions to patients.

Life expectancy

It is well established that quality health systems, in combination with other factors, ensure a longer life for the population.

Public investment in health

In this case, I don't talk about total investments, but in percentages, usually in relation to the country's GDP.

According to these criteria, Spain is ranked 7th and the US 37th.

The Law recognizes the right of all citizens and foreigners to obtain the benefits of the health care system.

With the approval in 1997 of Law 15/1997 on new forms of health center management, the door was opened in Spain to the construction of new private hospitals paid for with public funds and to the privatization of health care management.

That is to say, if you aren't from Spain and you have an accident, you will be treated immediately if your life depends on it. And because the health care is public, operations are not as expensive as in countries with private health care. If it's a non-urgent operation, there's a list in order of when you requested it. In Spain there are also private health care centers if you don't want to wait.

In my opinion, having the option of public healthcare helps those who don't have a lot of money to have the right to healthcare, something that is essential. You must know that ongoing reforms are being carried out to improve Spanish healthcare. These reforms are aimed at improving their efficiency.

From this point on, I contradict the words of @lightdancer1 :

First of all, the term "first world" refers to those countries that have achieved a very high Human Development Index (HDI) and Inequality-adjusted HDI (IHDI), these countries enjoy the highest possible standards of living, thanks to good health, life expectancy and quality of services.

HDI of Spain is 0,904 points out of 1 and the life expentancy is 83,58 years. So, nobody should say that Spain is a backward country or things like that.

Secondly, Franco's dictatorship ended MORE 50 YEARS AGO. Nowadays, the current government of Spain is leftist, i.e., just the opposite of fascism. Spain is a monarchical, democratic country, in which the king has no power, he only represents the country on trips abroad when the president cannot go.

So, WE ARE NOT RULED BY KINGS. We are a monarchic country but the crown doesn't have any power. Just because my country has a monarchy doesn't mean it's like the monarchies of 10 centuries ago.

Spain was very influenced by medieval times, that's reflected in the old buildings, but that doesn't mean that we're proud of everything that our country did in that era. If you don't believe it, study some Spanish history.

Last of all, something I don't like is that Spain is only associated with Sevillanas, paella and bullfighting. You are totally wrong. It's something that is part of our culture, but not in all regions. In fact, in my region they don't dance sevillanas and there are hardly any bullfights anymore. About bullfighting, there is a lot of controversy: many Spaniards are in favour and many others are against. I would appreciate it if you would stop adding bullfighting to any post that talks about Spain, if you don't mind.

what a deal.

He dibujado una escena de Star Trek TOS de McCoy y Spock (Spones). (No se me da muy bien dibujar personas en perspectiva 😔).

Por cristinardvaya

Quick drawing on papel. I may do it in digital later (just to give it some colour)

Por cristinardvaya

This is terribly true. I don't really ship Spirk as much as I ship Spones, but a few tears escaped me while reading it. 😢😢

Oh, poor Spock! How much pain he is suffering!!

Spock is my favourite character (McCoy as well). I am a very sensitive and empathic person, so I could feel the emotions you mencioned. Such a wonderful analysis!! I LOVE!!!

And also the dedication of Nimoy developing his character... I wish there were more actors like him ❤️❤️

We all know that the song Maiden Wine slaps, but I was wondering about what it actually means.  And then I realized— if we take a minute to consider it in the context of Kirk and Spock’s relationship, it takes on a heartbreaking significance.
