🇺🇲:Oh, hi hello my dears~
How’s everyone doing? Have you eaten yet? Well, I have—I just had a super tasty Maruchan.
Anyway, I DID SOME MORE DRAWINGS TODAY! Though, as always... they turned out kinda meh—decent, in my opinion.
Here are the new ones:
🇨🇺:Oh, hi hello my dears~
¿Cómo están? ¿Ya comieron? Pues yo sí, me acabo de comer una Maruchan de lo más sabrosa. En fin, ¡HOY HICE OTROS DIBUJOS! Aunque como siempre quedaron... Meh, decentes a mi opinión. Aquí les dejo a los nuevos:
🇺🇲:A bit of context for these OCs:
The first one—yeah, the guy with the "talk to me and I’ll kill you" face—is named Ignacio. He’s 50, Cuban, and basically the “adoptive dad” of our main girl. He used to work at the agency as a weapons creator and all that, so he’s... kinda way too obsessed with having weapons literally everywhere in his house (not even kidding—there’s a shotgun under the damn couch). He left the agency 'cause he wasn’t about that life anymore and has been living off his retirement since he was 43. With Gaby, he’s a pretty neglectful and super chill parent—acts like he couldn’t care less about the little devil child. Buuut the moment someone lays a finger on her… well, let’s just say when they tried to take Gaby away after she got corrupted, he almost killed the agency boss for trying to take her custody.
The second one—yeah, the one who kinda looks like a hooker—is named Rosa. She’s Gaby’s biological mom, but sadly she’s dead now (cough I killed her). So Gaby never got to meet her.
She died at 34, was Cuban (like, countryside-Cuban), and owned a bar that was tied to the mafia—though she honestly didn’t care much, as long as the money kept rolling in.
Oh, and yeah, she was kinda a hoe too—always out looking for “yumas” (foreign guys) to hook up with. She’s the daughter of a prostitute and a client. Her mom didn’t want her, but the pimp actually did—he always wanted kids but never had a wife (I decided he was asexual and aromantic, by the way). All this went down at the Guantánamo naval base—where I made up a bar-brothel being a thing—and that’s where it all happened. When Rosa grew up, her “dad” got her a bar in Havana.
The third one is Ludwig, though most people just call him “Novato” (‘Newbie’), and he’s a total sweetheart. He’s also Gaby’s biological dad and Rosa’s husband. Poor guy died at 32 along with Rosa (cough yeah, I killed him too). He was German and worked at the agency with Ignacio and Mateo—they were actually the original golden trio... until, boom, HE DIES. People at the agency were really fond of him and gave him the nickname “Novato” because he joined when he was just 15. His mom didn’t want him at home, so he basically grew up there—and the name just stuck. (And let’s be real, he’s a newbie at EVERYTHING. Yup, that too. You know what I mean.) He worked as a hitman, more specifically a sniper. And about that scar on his nose? No clue. He’s had it since he was a kid—probably fell on his face being a DUMBASS.
My drawings (and English) are still bad, really BAD.
🇨🇺: Un breve contexto de estos OC's:
El primero con cara de que te va a matar si le hablas se llama Ignacio, tiene 50 años, es cubano y es el "padre adoptivo" de nuestra prota. Trabajó en la agencia como creador de armas y cosas así, por lo que está un poco... demasiado obsesionado con tener armas en cualquier lado e su casa (y no es mentira, tiene una escopeta debajo del maldito sofá) pero deja la agencia porque no está para eso y vive de su jubilación desde los 43 años. Con Gaby es un padre negligente y bastante permisivo y tal parece que no le importa la chamaca del diablo, pero nada más le tocas un pelo a esa niña... Digamos que cuando se trataron de llevar a Gaby en cuanto se corrompió casi mata al jefe de la agencia por querer quitarle la custodia.
La segunda que parece prostituta se llama Rosa y es la madre biológica de Gaby, pero se murió lamentablemente (ejem, la maté) y entonces Gaby nunca la conoció. Murió con 34 años, es cubana (guajira) y tenía un bar que estaba relacionado con la mafia aunque a ella no le importaba mucho ya que ella solo recibía dinero y ya. Ah, también era medio puta ya que buscaba yumas para acostarse con ellos. Es hija de una prostituta y un cliente pero, la mujer no quería la niña pero el proxeneta sí la quería porque siempre quiso tener hijos pero él nunca tuvo esposa (llegué a la conclusión que ese hombre era asexual y arromantico). Esto ocurre en la base naval de Guantánamo donde me inventé que había un bar-prostibulo y pasó todo esto, cuando Rosa crece, su "padre" le consigue un bar en La Habana.
El tercero es Ludwig aunque se le conoce por "Novato" y es una cosita toda linda, además de ser el padre biológico de la prota y esposo de Rosa. Murió con 32 años el pobrecito junto a Rosa (ejem, también lo maté) y es alemán. Trabajaba en la agencia junto con Ignacio y Mateo y ese era el primer trío dorado hasta que, pum, MUERE. En la agencia le tenían cariño y le decían Novato por llegar a la agencia con 15 años ya que en su casa su mamá no lo quería y bueno, se le quedó el nombre (al final digamos que es novato en ABSOLUTAMENTE TODO, y sí, en eso que estás pensando también). En la agencia era un sicario, específicamente un francotirador. Y ¿Por qué tiene esa cicatriz en la nariz? Ni idea, desde niño la tiene, seguro se cayó por PENDEJO.
Mis dibujos (e inglés) siguen siendo malos, realmente MALOS.
🇺🇲:Oh, hi hello my dears~
Sooo, I know I still gotta explain a bunch about the lore and all that, but I haven’t really had the time (lies—I'm just lazy, lol). Anyway, since like forever ago, I’ve been drawing my OCs—or well, the most important and iconic ones. I’ve messed around with a bunch of styles, and I think the one I like the most is the one I did in the pic below:
🇨🇺:Oh, hi hello my dears~
Bueno, sé que aún tengo que explicar mucho del lore y tal pero, no he tenido tiempo (mentira, le da pereza explicar) en fin, hace más tiempo que el tiempo, he estado dibujando a mis OC's o más bien a los más destacados e importantes. He probado muchos estilos y creo que el que más me ha gustado es el que he hecho en la imagen de abajo:
🇺🇲: This is one of the golden trios from the lore, 'cause WARNING: there are over 30 OCs.
The girl is Gabrielle, kinda the main character. She's 23, Cuban, and works at the agency. She's got a nasty temper and a permanent "resting bitch face" that just won't go away. She's infected with corruption from a newly discovered phase, so the agency basically locked her up and she almost died—YAAAY. Now she might have PTSD but hey, she's still kickin’.
The half-naked dude is Samuil, the MC’s boyfriend. He’s 25, Russian, and used to be a boss in one of the most dangerous mafias in Russia (COUGH cliché). But now he’s a househusband (lol). To sum him up, his most well-known nickname is “Nympho Psycho” (yeah, I know, I need help—don’t tell me).
The white-haired guy is Mateo, the extrovert of the group. Basically the golden retriever type—super chill and fun. He’s been on Earth for 53 years since he showed up, but looks like he’s 19 or 20 'cause he’s a damn demon who just popped up in ARGENTINA.
(I don't know how to draw but I feel it looks cool)
🇨🇺:Este es uno de los tríos dorados del lore porque, ADVIERTO, hay más de 30 OC's.
La chica de llama Gabrielle que es como nuestra prota, tiene 23 años, es cubana y trabaja en la agencia. Tiene mal carácter con una cara de culo que no se la quita nadie. Es una infectada de la corrupción de una fase recién descubierta por lo que la agencia la retiene y casi muere YUPIIIIII, ahora tiene posible estrés postraumático pero, hey, está aquí.
El chico medio desnudo es Samuil que es el novio de nuestra prota, tiene 25 años, es ruso y fue jefe en una de las mafias más peligrosas de Rusia (EJEM, CLICHÉ) pero ahora es ama de casa (jaja). Y para resumir quién es digamos que su apodo más conocido es "Psicópata ninfómano" (sí, ya sé que no estoy bien de la cabeza, no me lo digan).
El peli blanco es Mateo que es el extrovertido del grupo, el golden retriever o algo así, muy chévere en resumen. Tiene 53 años en la tierra desde que apareció aunque su apariencia es de 19 o 20 años ya que es un maldito demonio que apareció en ARGENTINA.
(No sé dibujar pero siento que me quedó chévere)
🇺🇲:Oh hi hello my dears
Do you remember the lore I yapped about before? Well, I'd like to give you a little summary about it, pretty much shitty, yeah, but easy for y'all to get.
As I said, this story occurs during 2019 or so, pretty modern time but yet nit the 2020's. This is a "dystopia + (sort of) fantasy and sci-fi".
POV: There is a virus in the world (nOt ThE cOvId) that "corrupts" people and, ahaldijslsck OBVIOUSLY, it's called "corruption" (it can't be more cliché). Angels and demons exist too! Based on biblical and satanic religions or smth like that (don't mind me too much, I'm a. agnostic and I wanted to insert all that stuff because my ass says so).
In this world, the corrupts are a taboo subject in society, being seen as murderers, monsters or the most disgusting shi on the planet, while the government sees them as biological weapons, since only "corrupt weapons" can murder the said corrupts. Angels are pure and divine beings, mAGICALLY APPEARING ON EARth as five-years-old-children, more or less, every time someone dies they fulfil some important requirements of the bible itself; the bad thing is that they are under vigilance at all times in case they break any commandment, being punished and turning into fallen angels with the penalty according to their punishment. Demons... they are happy, those people are taboo too but they go pretty much... yolo abt it. Many of them just wreak havoc and, like angels, they appear on earth in the same way only if that dead person meets the requirements of Satanism or some capital sin.
There are three main organisations in this universe: the governments, the criminals and the "scientists". How does it work? Simple, our main organisation is a government paid agency (Umbral Operatives) dedicated to research, weapons innovation, military force and surveillance of the corrupt, who by the way, have hitmen or spies for the control of any potential danger although they are more often used for criminals. Then there are the mafias or gangs of gangsters, people who pursue their own interests in questionable ways, nothing more, nothing less. And finally there are the "scientists" which is more like... a cult who, as you might imagine, are the creators of the virus itself. Why? No idea (yet), my friends.
🇨🇺:Oh hi hello my dears
¿Se acuerdan del lore que les conté? Pues me gustaría hacer un pequeño resumen muy a la mierda pero que sea entendible para ustedes.
Cómo dije, esta historia se basa aproximadamente en el 2019, algo contemporáneo pero sin llegar a la actualidad. Esto es una "distopía con su toque de fantasía y ciencia ficción" ya que existe un virus por el mundo (y no, no es el coronavirus) que "corrompe" a las personas y, por obviedad, se le denomina "corrupción" (más cliché no puede ser) además de la existencia de ángeles y demonios basados en las religiones bíblicas y satánicas o algo así (no me hagan mucho caso que soy agnóstica y me quise meter acá porque me sale de donde no brilla el sol).
En este mundo, los corruptos son tema tabú en la sociedad siendo vistos como asesinos, monstruos o la asquerosidad más grande del planeta mientras el gobierno los vé como armas biológicas ya que solo las "armas corruptas" pueden matarlos. Los ángeles son seres puros y divinos, apareciendo como niños de 5 años aprox en el mundo cada que muere alguien cumplen con algunos requisitos importante de la mismísima biblia; lo único malo es que son velados en todo momento por si incumplen con algún mandamiento, siendo castigados y convertidos en ángeles caídos con la pena según su castigo. Los demonios... son felices, esa gente son tabú también pero ¿Crees que les importa un comino? A muchos no, sólo hacen el caos y, como los ángeles, aparecen en la tierra de la misma forma sólo que si esa persona muerta cumple con los requisitos del satanismo o algún pecado capital.
Existen tres organizaciones en este universo: el gobierno, los criminales y los "científicos" ¿Qué cómo funciona? Simple, nuestra organización principal es una agencia pagada por el gobierno (Umbral Operatives) dedicada a la investigación, inovación de armas, fuerza militar y vigilancia a corruptos, que por cierto, tienen sicarios o espías para el control de cualquier peligro potencial aunque se suelen usar más para los criminales. Luego estan las mafias o bandas de malandros (XD), gente que buscan sus propios intereses de maneras cuestionables, nada más y nada menos. Y al final están los "científicos" que es más bien una "secta o culto" que, como debieron imaginar, son los creadores del mismo virus ¿Por qué? Ni idea, amigos míos.
Yes, I draw this and yes, it's a bullshit.
(Sorry for my really bad English)
🇺🇸: Oh hi hello my dears, I introduce myself as Gabriela although I like to be called Gaby (probably you will call me whatever you want but idgaf) ignore my half-assed english-totally-not-grom-a-translator because that is literally what it is (VIVA CUBA LIBRE). Anyway, during the schizophrenia attacks I get at 3 a.m., I came up with a lore more SICK than your math test.
Of course this lore has a considerable amount (too many) of characters along with a story with so many branches that you don't even realize you missed it.
Obviously in every story there is a protagonist and in mine it can't be missing. This is all roughly based on 2019 because it was a great year before everything went FOR THE REVEREND PINGA.

🇨🇺: Oh hi hello my dears, me presento como Gabriela aunque me gustaría que me llamaran Gaby (seguramente me llamarán como les salga del orto pero me vale culo). Durante mis ataques esquizo de las 3 de la mañana, se me ocurrió crear un lore más complicado que las matemáticas.
Por supuesto, este lore tiene una cantidad considerable (DEMASIADOS) personajes, junto con tantas ramas que ni te darás cuenta que te perdiste. Obviamente en toda historia hay una protagonista y en la mía no podía faltar. Esto está basado hasta el 2019 porque es fue un gran año antes de que todo se fuera A LA REVERENDA PINGA.
Pues bueno, me despido motherfuckers :3
attack on titian review
In the early 2000s, a college student named Hajime Isayama was working in a café when suddenly someone grabbed him by the collar violently. It was this, “the fear of meeting a person I can't communicate with,” that inspired a brilliant idea of writing what now would be the best anime of the decade. Attack on Titan is a dark fantasy manga (Japanese comic) that got turned into an anime. The anime gained a lot of popularity very rapidly and for a good reason. The show hurt me, it broke me in the most beautiful way, every episode left me with so many unanswered questions, every episode left a big impact on me as a person, it changed my sense of morality, the way I view life, it truly took me the whole new perspective.
Now theirs a lot of reason A.O.T is good but some of the main ones are:
The main storyline:
The anime/manga is set in a world where humanity lives peacefully inside cities surrounded by three enormous worshiped walls that have been built for a century, these walls protect them from a gigantic man eating creatures called titans, one day unexpectedly a titan larger than the 3rd outer wall (wall Maria) breaks it causing chaos destruction and fear leaving other titans to enter, titans start devouring humans at high rates as the main character Eren Jagear and his friends try to find his mother so they can enter the second wall and seek coverage but it’s too late, he watches as his own mother gets eaten alive, her shoe drooping symbolizing her leaving her son behind, in that very moment Eren swears that he’ll take revenge and slaughter all titans and give humanity hope for freedom since he’s always looked at the walls as if they are cages blocking him from the outer world ( it’s pretty ironic since the walls are what used to protect them ) then the real story begins following him entering the scouts regiment building relationships with other characters, and very unexpected plots that will change the whole course of the story.
The well written characters:
Attack on titan by far has the best written characters. each character has their own unique personality, different interest, different point of views, a motive and a dream, weaknesses and strengths, yet they all are relatable and have one thing in common; they all are trying to survive or save their loved ones at least. We always see them learning and improving from each other, even balancing each other. For example Armin lacks physical strength yet he has a good head on his shoulder while Eren is the opposite, he tends to let his emotions and humanity take over him. And in one scene Eren was refusing to kill Annie even if it was self defense thinking it was inhumane as he heard those words “To surpass monsters, you must be willing to abandon your humanity.” – Armin Alert. The story is also shown from every character point of view and that left us wondering if maybe Eren is in the wrong, maybe he’s the bad guy . Yet in the same time he’s the hero? The story is the same yet the point of views are changed and the audience are left to think for themselves, and the change of him from being the oppressed to being the oppressor was brilliant. The whole story was a big example of ‘’I can’t blame you nor you can blame me’’.
As Armin once said “A good person? Well… I don’t really like that term. Because to me, it just seems to mean someone who’s good for you. And I don’t think there’s any one person who’s good for everyone.”
Diversity and awareness:
growing up it was hard for me to relate to characters, there wasn’t any diversity whatsoever. Male characters were superior while female characters were never taken seriously, not mention they always had to live up to the white beauty standards that were limiting to so many children. In attack on titan they empowered all genders, personalities, bodies, races , and they did it in a proper way to show awareness for example every female character wasn’t sexualized nor objectified like most shows do and were written as proper humans with feeling and motives they were also respected an seen as equals with the male characters sometimes even stronger , as for appearance we see both woman and men with different unique features , a lot of the characters have a hooked/roman noses, the strongest character is also the shortest, Onyankopon is a dark-skinned man with black hair styled in a short crew cut and when someone asked him why his skin was dark showing ignores he simply answered by saying: because our creator thought it would be interesting if there was a mix of people, we got created cause we were wanted. The anime also explores other issues like parental abuse, in one seen a character was screaming calling out to her father apologizing while getting eaten by a titan and screaming this was a sign of trauma caused by her father’s abuse in the past. In other scenes we see parents manipulating their children or guilt tripping them into doing what they want for example historia and annie, Another thing the show raised awareness towards governmental corruption the show showed people abusing their authority multiple times and in one seen a we see a soldier with access to governmental equipment selling them illegally. The government also had a history of lying to the citizens and hurting those who were brave enough speak the truth (Erwin’s father was killed) In season 2 the government falsely accused the 104 cadets by committing crimes against the crown and they sent people to kill them illegally just because they were discovering the truth. The list goes on and on of the governments greediness.
The dark themes and mixed emotions:
“The world is merciless, and it's also very beautiful.”- Mikasa. as I said before the show showed some serious problems and the dark realistic sides the world in general and with these situations we are bound to get a lot of emotions like regret , feeling used, hopelessness, feeling stuck, losing touch with humanity, losing sight of you goals , betrayal, and more yet in the same time the show showed that in darkness there’s always some light , you see people stuck in a conflict find that they’re actually very similar to each other and becoming lovers, we see Armin achieving his long dream of wanting to see the ocean in with his own eyes , we see characters improving to the best version of themselves . The anime ended with our lovable main character dying and getting buried under the same tree he would sit under with the person he loved the most before the war, which was truly a bittersweet ending.
Attack on titian was very bittersweet and an emotional roller-coaster and it hurt me in the most beautiful way possible, it changed my morals, my views on life, it helped me learn valuable lessons. The anime is a masterpiece and I recommend it for everyone Possible.
Sean bienvenidos a un nueva entrega un tanto especial, ya que tengo el gusto de presentaros Ishibutai, localizado en la prefectura de Nara data del periodo Asuka(592-710). - En un principio se barajaron hipótesis de que podría haber sido utilizado para espectáculos, en la década de los 30, Ishibutai es un kofun y os estaréis preguntando ¿no se supone que tenían ojo de cerradura? - Los podian a ver de muchos tipos se empiezan a construir en el año 300 al 592 d.c pero eso será otro capítulo de la arqueología y prehistoria japonesa. La tumba pudo pertenecer a Soga no Umako un político y ocupa una extensión de 54 m es la mayor estructura megalítica conocida en Japón. - ¿Hasta cuando estuvo utilizada? la edad de uso os dejará helados se construyó en el siglo VI y estuvo hasta el siglo VII para ser más exactos en este segundo dato en el 626 d.c. - En 1957 fue nombrado patrimonio nacional por la Unesco, ¿Cuánto pesa esta mole? un total de 30 rocas que le suman un peso aproximadamente de 2300 toneladas y las piedras del techo suman una friolera de 77 toneladas aproximadamente. - Espero que os haya gustado y nos vemos en una nueva publicación de arqueología y prehistoria arqueología japonesa. - Welcome to a new, somewhat special installment, as I have the pleasure of introducing you to Ishibutai, located in the Nara prefecture, dating from the Asuka period (592-710). - At first, hypotheses were considered that it could have been used for shows, in the 1930s, Ishibutai is a kofun and you may be wondering, aren't they supposed to have a keyhole? - You could see them of many types, they began to be built in the year 300 to 592 AD but that will be another chapter of Japanese archeology and prehistory. The tomb could have belonged to Soga no Umako, a politician, and occupies an area of 54 m, it is the largest megalithic structure known in Japan. - Until when was it used? The age of use will leave you frozen. It was built in the 6th century and was there until the 7th century to be more exact in this second data in 626 AD. - In 1957 it was named a national heritage site by UNESCO. How much does this mass weigh? a total of 30 rocks that add up to a weight of approximately 2,300 tons and the stones of the roof add up to a whopping 77 tons approximately. - I hope you liked it and see you in a new publication of archeology and prehistory Japanese archaeology. - 新しい、ちょっと特別な回へようこそ。今回は、飛鳥時代 (592 ～ 710 年) に遡る、奈良県にある石舞台についてご紹介したいと思います。 - 当初は、1930 年代にショーに使用されたのではないかという仮説が考えられていました。 石舞台は古墳ですが、鍵穴があるはずではないかと疑問に思うかもしれません。 - さまざまなタイプのそれらを見ることができ、それらは西暦 300 年から 592 年に建てられ始めましたが、それは日本の考古学と先史学の別の章となるでしょう。 この墓は政治家蘇我馬子の墓と考えられ、面積は54メートルあり、知られている巨石建造物としては日本最大である。 - いつ頃まで使われていましたか？ この 2 番目のデータは西暦 626 年で、6 世紀に建てられ、より正確には 7 世紀まで存在していました。 - 1957 年にユネスコによって国家遺産に指定されましたが、この塊の重さはどれくらいでしょうか? 30 個の石を合計すると約 2,300 トン、屋根の石を合計すると約 77 トンにもなります。 - 気に入っていただければ幸いです。考古学と先史時代の日本の考古学の新しい出版物でお会いしましょう。
Liddy Bacroff (19 August 1908, Ludwigshafen - 6 January 1943, Mauthausen concentration camp) was a trans woman and sex worker of the Weimar Republic era, persecuted and killed by the Nazi regime during WW2.
I highly recommend Dr. Bodie Ashton's lecture in the video above for information on her life in an English language source.
