Another busy week at work, but now things will settle down for a while. And while I wasn’t much online this week - being away from the computer when not working - I did enjoy some great TV shows on stream.
I think starting next week I can start having content recommendations and comments again :)
In the latest Otakusphere, Iniksbane mentions how Moyatorium is their favorite name for a blog, which I kinda have to agree. Compared to all blog names I ever had, it’s on a whole other level of coolness.
But I realized I also never talked about this title blog’s domain, my previous ones, and my complete incompetency at coming up with a great decent name and sticking with it. So let’s chat a bit about my blogging adventures through the decades.
These past couple weeks have been busy, but I hope things are going to fall back into schedule soon.
Fanfic as old as time
Too many cool TV shows, too little time to watch all of them. Who else has this problem?
It’s a common scenario for me: start a new TV show, watch it over a week or two, and then wait a whole year for the next season. But then when the next season arrives, you are already watching so many other new TV shows that you end up leaving it for later, but never go back to it.
52 paused, 120 abandoned. That’s a lot!
Busy week didn’t let me check much online content this week, but at least I kept reading and managed to finish a book today!
This OST is so god, and so nostalgic to me! It brings me back to the early 2000s when I was making new anime-lover friends, going to my first conventions, and we finally were getting some cool mangas (like Card Captor Sakura) published. One of the first few songs - Groovy - is one of my favs, I think.
One of my goals for this year is to read more: books, manga, articles, poetry, anything. This is part of something that gets more and more important to me every year as I get older, which is spending time on things that are worth my time.
I can also play games and watch great shows and movies, of course, but I think reading is a great way for me to focus, and be away from the computer and smartphone.
Warm and sunny Sunday here for me, and I wish everyone is having a great weekend.
I already shared Raon Lee previously here quite some time ago, but here I go again! Her Digimon cover is fantastic, and the has so many great content. I suggest just listening to all her covers.
Recently I shared a post on how to automate downloading images and videos from Reddit comments, as well as saving links present in those comments. Today I’m adding one extra step, and making it also find the correct posts for me. That way I can download screenshots and videos for a whole show!
Cathedral of The Sea (La Catedral Del Mal) is a 2018 Spanish show that has 8 episodes and is based on a book by Ildefonso Falcones from 2006 (which has a follow up named Los herederos de la tierra/The Heirs of the Earth). It’s a rag-to-riches story set in a tumultuous era: plague, inquisition and anarchy.
In the heart of medieval Barcelona, from the Great Plague to the Inquisition, Arnau, a young peasant, endures the worst torments and humiliations to become a free man. His extraordinary destiny will make him the hero of a whole people. In the fourteenth century, to the rhythm of the construction of the church Santa María del Mar - masterpiece of Catalan Gothic built “for the people and by the people” in record time (fifty-seven years), Arnau Estanyol tries to conquer his freedom.
This week I have a few blog posts to recommend, besides the usual music and what I’ve been watching and reading!
