Are draculas inherently sexy? Can there be a non-sexy dracula?

True Blood tried to answer this question by having the vampires stay exactly the same as they were when they were bitten and Never Ever Change, like that was the whole moral dilemma of being a vampire or whatever idk

but anyway, i want to say it showed a person who wanted to be a vampire trying to get in shape so they could look their physical best forever, and the vampire that was going to turn them showed them this vampire guy who was painted as this slob: fat, greasy, spotty and generally UnSexy in the True Blood World (TBW).

it was shown like a cautionary tale; this guy can only get blood by ordering pizza to his house and eating the delivery boy, you don't want to be like him, do you??? you want to get your blood the sexy, neck-bitey, non-sad pizza guy way, don't you??

the point is, in the TBW, becoming a vampire didn't suddenly make you Cool and Suave and Sexy and Desireable, you had to be all that Beforehand, otherwise you'd just sit around in your house all day and only eat delivery drivers WITHOUT having crazy hot sex with them first

anyway, that's fucked up. that's the fucked up and completely wrong answer to the question.

the True and Correct answer is that Of Course all draculas are inherently sexy. To be a dracula is to be sexy, there's no two ways about it.

End of.

La ciudad de las sombras

Lotus penso que lo conocia de hace mucho, pues todo lo que el era le hacia sentir en confianza, a pesar de ser tan temible como se hablaba entre reinos.

No sabia si el demonio al que todos temen, incluso ella en su tiempo, fuera realmente la barbarie que se cree. De todos modos gracias a el, la ciudad de las sombra y la de los vivos estan en tregua.

Sentados en la oscuridad de la noche, sobre una raída carreta que los llevaba quien sabe donde. Penso sobre esto y no pudo evitar sentir vergüenza por el escándalo que le provoco al señor de las sombras hace unos dias

- mmm oye Roy - dijo lotus jugando con los trapos de su ropa sin siquiera mirarlo

- mmm..?

-yo ... Realmente siento haberte amenazado de muerte, no sabia que el demonio que .... El demonio que conocía era otro

Roy que estaba recostado en la carreta mirando la hermosura del cielo nocturno, se levanto de golpe para mirarla con curiosidad- ¿me vas a decir como conociste a ese demonio? te lo he preguntado muchas veces

Lotus rodo los ojos y solto un suspiro- porque te interesa tanto eso. Te acabo de pedir disculpas

- con todo respeto, hermosa señorita, sus disculpas no me interesan. Ya te explique como son las reglas ¿no?- dijo mientras acariciaba un mechon del pelo de lotus - Y... Me interesa saber quien es este tal demonio que se atrevió a "intentar" imitarme. Obviamente debió haber sido un intento bastante burdo

- ah, osea que no me vas a perdonar

- creo que eso dije

- y entonces ¿que se supone que vas a hacer?- la luz de la luna era traicionera, pues mostraba a detalle lo bellas que eran las facciones de ese demonio, y a lotus se le empezaba a revolver el estomago - supongo que me comeras y usaras mis huesos como adorno para tu templo

-planeo comerte- dijo saboreandose mientras se le acercaba sutilmente y le tocaba la oreja - te voy a devorar lenta y completamente, cada parte de tu cuerpo voy a saborear - bajo su mano lentamente al cuello de lotus y le acaricio la garganta, mientras la miraba con una sed aterradora

Lotus trago saliva y roy quito sus manos- p-porque me lo dices de esa manera, no me mires asi

-¿de que forma ?

-tu saves, asi

- ¿te da miedo ?- se rio coqueto mientras se volvia a recostar con las manos bajo su nuca- pense que no le temias a nada, despues de todo me amenazaste y te lanzaste hacia mi sabiendo mi reputacion

- es distinto, no me miraste de la forma que lo hiciste recién

- osea que si me tienes miedo. Descuida, te va a gustar

- roy de que estas.. - en ese momento la carreta freno y se tambaleo. lotus tuvo que bajarse de un salto para no caer - ¿que pasa rin?- pregunto al nińo que iba guiando la carreta

- es que ranita no quiere seguir caminando- rin se bajo para ver como estaba su burra- ¿quieres una manzanita ranita? ¿estas cansada? - saco una manzana de su bolso y se la dio, pero el burro no acepto

- no es ese el problema rin, creo que le asustan las luces que se ven entre los arboles

-que luces lotus- rin se apretaba las manos de los nervios- no veo nada

- fijate bien, agudiza tu vista... ¿Lo ves ?

- s-si, ahora si. Crees que son peligrosas- las luces que veía eran rojas y titilaban en la oscuridad. Eran como pequeñas bolitas de fuego que danzaban por el busque. De ellas se escuchaba un suave sonido como el de los silbidos del viento

-mmm... Pues no lo se- apretó sus labios y toco su espada a su costado

-hoy es 2 de mayo- dijo roy aun acostado en la carreta- hoy los espiritus van en buscan de un lugar para dormir, si los molestan se vuelven errantes. Solo miren, pero no hablen

- ¿pero y si escuchan mi respiracion? Siento que suena muy fuerte - rin estaba hiperventilando, tenia sus pequeñas manitas temblando y sus ojitos algo llorosos

- pues si te escuchan te seguiran, y no te dejaran hasta que se coman completamente tu alma- lotus dio vuelta sus ojos soltando un suspiro, penso que aveces el señor de las sombras no actuaba como tal - ¿que ? Es verdad - le dijo Roy

-no te preocupes rin yo estoy contigo- sonrío mientras se sentaba a su lado y lo abrasaba

- ¿cuando vamos a llegar al lugar perdido lotus ? Estoy muy cansado

- ya vamos a llegar, no te preocupes. ahora guarda silencio y miremos como pasan las almas- al rato, roy tambien se fue a sentar con ellos para mirar las almas pasar.

The Philippine Navy (PN) finally provided some more updates about their upcoming planned acquisitions to the Public recently.

First is that they said that they are planning to acquire to more Corvettes, which I assume means something similar to the Miguel Malvar class Corvettes of the PN that is currently being built. Around two Weeks ago, they said it was going to be, “… either Corvettes or Frigates …”, so now it seems they have settled on what to get.

Second, they said that they will be acquiring six more Offshore Patrol Vessels (OPV), which I assume will be similar to the OPVs that are currently also being built in South Korea (SK).

Personally I am not so enthusiastic about those upcoming OPVs, I got a close look as them during the Asian Defense and Security (ADAS) several Months ago, and they are not really good Surface Combatants.

I was going to do a Video about them, but it is just one of those Topics that kept being pushed aside due to one Reason or the other. I intend to make that Video though one of these Days. It makes me wonder if the PN should really be investing in OPVs at all, especially one that seems eager to go to War with a Superpower Country like China.

I think the PN should be investing in more capable Ships, and just leave the Law Enforcement-type Patrolling to the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) and the Bureau of Fisheries and Resources (BFAR). Instead of six more OPVs, they could just get two to three more Corvettes or Frigates in place of those.

But that is just my Opinion, of course, up to them to do what they want to do.

Windshield Replacement - What About It? Windshields have not always been "shatter proof". In 1890's auto glass was ordinary glass, and in the event of impact the glass would shatter into sharp fragments causing sever injuries and death.

In 1905, Eduardo Benedictus introduced laminated glass which consists of two layers of glass with a layer of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) sandwiched in between.

Windshield replacement has become more difficult as there are ADAS cameras, lasers and sensors that have be calibrated. OEM auto glass is still preferred by all major insurance companies.
