blue blood / 1921

Lavis sobbed into his hands, the wool of his gloves catching the frozen tears and ripping them painfully from his skin. He became vaguely aware of warm arms closing around him, followed by the familiar smell of smoky cinnamon. He leaned closer, accepting the embrace, but not moving his own arms.

They stayed like that for a few moments, before Faros pulled away, gently wiping away Lavis’s tears before they had a chance to freeze. It hurt to see him this way, and he knew right then he would do anything to make it better.

            “Lavis, I’m going to ask you something,” he said, his hands still on the gishar’s face, “And I need you to be honest with me.”

Lavis nodded, his breath still shaking as he sniffed, wiping his face on his fur sleeve.

            “Would your life be better if… if your father was… not around?”

            “I… well…” Lavis knew the answer to this question. He was just too afraid to say it loud.

            “Visi?”

He looked up into Faros’s eyes, seeing that he was holding back his own tears. Whilst Lavis was unsure of many things, one thing he never doubted was that Faros had his best interests at heart.

            “You can’t do anything about it.”

Faros shifted uncomfortably. “I could… make some arrangements.”

Runian lore dump #2

Windcaller and Midnightglider, and Embercatcher are canonlogically the only Phoenix Harpies left, Ember going by the name of Empra, however she goes now by the name of Tiaus, disguising herself as a beautiful women in a dress tipped with her own feathers, her son being Midnightglider, however the young Harpy does not know of his mother being alive, as when he was a child, he watched humans kill her and his father.

Midnight is in a relationship with Wind, and they eventually have eggs together.

(Two male Harpies can have eggs together, in fact with Harpies AND dragons, same gender pairs can have offspring, F x F, M x M, F x M, etc.)

This lore belongs to @crayzkato and @crayzkrypto, any theft of any kind will not be tolerated.

Trazyn closed the tessaract and chuckled to himself, - 'Don't you just love when a specimen arranges itself into a nice display, saving me the trouble!'

[staticsqueaks]

(Smoshes face against the window, rapidly bangs against it)

YO! HEY! MR EMPRA! HOWS IT GOING? ITS ME! RIPTIDE! LEMME IN! LEMME IN! LEMME IN!

Hosin keeps his characteristic smile but visibly jumps, turning slowly to stare directly in Riptide’s optics as he smooshed himself into the glass like clay. He stood there a moment, taking in the…interesting sight before crossing leisurely back to the door with his datapad in his hand.

“Ah, I should have known it was you, Starshine! Come in, Riptide, come in!” He opened the door, trying to maintain his composure and not laugh at the hilarious display. “How are you today, darling? What has you so worked up?”

ハートを揺さぶられる声ってあるよね。

Lyraの場合は、個人的に声が低い人が好き。

男性の場合は、それだけで好きになったことある。

女性でもセクシーな低い声は、万国共通のモテ要素。知性があって���力的なセクシーさで愛される。

でも日本だけは、幼稚性が好まれる国だから、高いアニメ声じゃないとダメらしい。

Noelに馬鹿にされる国民性は、きっと日本から日本人がほとんど居なくなる数十年後迄、続くんだろう。

せめて、音楽の世界くらい低いのも高いのも自由に歌え、愛される自由な世界であって欲しいな。

今日は Lyra が素敵な声だなって思ったアーティストの曲を紹介するね。

熱いラブソング。

こんな事、見つめらながら歌われたら堪んない。

👹 - what's the most unhinged and/or feral your oc has ever gotten?

🛀 - what's the longest your oc has gotten without washing themselves?

Thanks for the ask!

I'll answer the first one for Einjal Daju. The most unhinged that he's ever gotten is towards the end when his shapeshifting had become severely corrupted. He fought against Hanasha in his "beast" form and was so consumed by his rage that he tried to eat her, only managing to tear her arm off.

The next one I'll do for Faros Empra, because he's the one who has gone the longest by not washing for three months during a period of deep depression.

Don't have enough time this year for a full 2017 pride lineup, so I drew Empra for it, she's aromantic asexual. ^_^

Empra: Ugh, I hate this room. I don’t understand why she couldn’t be happy monochrome. 

Lightning: She was an artist, dear.

Empra: An artist. HAH! She’s a dreamer and dreamers never get anywhere. What did her computer say?

Lightning: Empra, maybe we should leave her be...

Empra: Leave her be?! This is your family name she is tarnishing. Your legacy. I can’t believe you - Are those...different colored berries living with her?

Lighting: Ah, yes. Her social media shows her living with the pink and purple ones. She’s painted and expanded the cottage. It’s turning into a home.

Empra: This is ridiculous! Living with not one different colored berry, but two!

¡La edad no es obstáculo, al contrario! Emprender a partir de los 45 años.

¡La edad no es obstáculo, al contrario! Emprender a partir de los 45 años.

La edad no es un obstáculo es una ventaja. Tu experiencia bien administrada puede convertir tu proyecto en una empresa de éxito

¿Por qué tenemos tendencia en asociar emprendimiento con juventud? Si a las estadísticas nos ceñimos, no podemos separar edad y emprendimiento, cada  día se crean empresas en todo el mundo, con empresarios de todas las edades.

Es verdad que a partir de una cierta edad…

What has Nate written? Cause I heard the one Ork related thing he did write was unfortunately subpar in orkyness

Severed, which is about Obyron and Zahndrekh, and Enemy of my Enemy, which is about Orks, and very enjoyable, even if the Orks are kinda quirky. I like them. He’s also got a short story in volume 3 of Inferno called Empra, which is about a shellmaker’s perspective on the Emperor, and rather interesting.

Idk what you’d consider to be supbarly Orky, but considering it shows Orks doing something different and not being jobbed, I’ll take it.

Brutal Kunnin’ by Mike Brooks is also a great Ork book.

Derrame de Petróleo:       Un lamentable hecho

09/11/2021

“Hoy en día, en el Perú existe un terrible hecho que está afectando a nuestros queridos hermanos de la amazonía Peruana. Como ustedes bien deben saber existen infinidades de tipos de contaminación ambiental y uno de ellos es el derrame de petróleo, que justamente tratará este artículo.Este problema trae consigo consecuencias devastadoras a la salud, sin embargo no podemos dejar de lado la buena economía  que se ha obtenido durante todo este tiempo. No obstante debemos saber que los derrames de petróleo o mareas negras es un vertido de este hidrocarburo que afecta especialmente al mar. A causa de esto,muchas empresas como “PlusPetrol” no se han hecho cargo de las consecuencias de estos derrames, que tristemente pueden provocar la muerte de animales como de humanos.

Los derrames de petroleo  a menudo ocurren debido a accidentes, Otras causas incluyen desastres naturales o los equipos se descomponen...Ya van siendo

mas de 400 derrames de protelo, entre los años 2000 y 2019, si bien es cierto no 

estamos en el año 2019,es importante darnos cuenta que si entre el 2000 y 2019 

habian 400,imaginense en el 2021!.Esto es realmente preocupante para la poblacion. Los derrames se originan en el Oleoducto Norperuano, una infraestructura de 48 años de antigüedad y con más de 800 kilómetros de longitud de la estatal PetroPerú, Sim embargo otra causa de estos derrames

son los actos de vandalismo en el Perú, muchos actos son dados

en empresas como Petroperu ,Pluspetrol,entre otros. Pluspetrol es la que más multas tiene y la que menos ha pagado. No hay medidas para la remediación y quienes siguen pagando los impactos de la contaminación son los pueblos indígenas.

Por otra parte es importante recalcar las consecuencias de estos actos

Muchas veces los afectamos somos nosotros,como los animales y

plantas. Los problemas pueden incluir irritación cutánea y ocular, problemas neurológicos y respiratorios, y estrés.Otros efectos pueden ser el crudo que forma una capa delgada sobre la superficie del agua e impide el paso de la luz solar,dentro del ecosistema marino hay diferentes especies, como es el caso de las algas, que necesitan la llegada de la luz para poder realizar la fotosíntesis. Si esto no ocurre, muchas de ellas pueden morir. Debido a esto, la de mayor impacto es los problemas respiratorios ya que si no

podemos respiar podemos perder la vida. 

Con la gravedad de este problema tambien se puede

observar  que muchos de los derechos de estas personas se estan vulnerando 

y violando, por ejemplo en el pueblo awajún, derechos como el de tener una buena salud, este derecho se incumple

cuando tienen problemas respiratorios o irritacion que se deberia a los derrames

de petroleo, el derecho a un ambiente sano, este se ve por el olor del petroleo

y provoca los defectos en la salud mencionados  antes, e inclusive el derecho a la vida ya que con estas enfermedades y con ese olor fuerte del petroleo las 

personas pueden perder la vida. 

Los actores involucrados son los primarios, que son todos aquellos que 

participan directamente, como la comunidad y las empr, los actores secundarios(las empresas) y terciarios ( el Estado), ya que no brindan apoyo a estos pobladores para combatir a este problema como por ejempĺo empras como 

PetroPeru,Repsol etc.

Sin embargo no todo está perdido, ya que existe una estrategia de solución 

que permitirá absorber el petróleo de los mares,ríos,lagos etc. Se trata de la Oleo Esponja, desarrollada por científicos del Laboratorio Nacional de Argonne, de la Universidad de Chicago y el Departamento de Energía de Estados Unidos. 

La esponja es un bloque de hule espuma, parecido a un almohadón, que puede absorber fácilmente el petróleo del agua, sin absorber el agua,la esponja luego se exprime para volver a utilizarla de nuevo y el crudo puede recuperarse.

"El material es extremadamente fuerte. Llevamos a cabo cientos de pruebas con él. Cada una de ellas requería exprimirlo y hasta ahora no se ha estropeado", agregó el investigador.

Elegí darles a conocer esta estrategia de solución ya que esta esponja es muy fuerte, muy efectiva según los investigadores y creadores,Además puede potencialmente ser utilizada para limpiar puertos donde el aceite y el petróleo tienden a acumularse por el tráfico de embarcaciones.

Para que esta pueda absorber el petróleo, los creadores ya contaban con una serie de moléculas capaces de atrapar petróleo.Según los investigadores, esta esponja funciona como "pegamento" ante las moléculas de petróleo, las cuales se unen a una capa de óxido metálico pero sin llegar a mezclarse con la estructura de la esponja. Esto hace que tanto el petróleo y la esponja se puedan reutilizar más adelante.También puede extraer aquel que se ha dispersado en toda la columna de agua, y no únicamente el de la superficie.

Primeramente el petróleo es incorporado dentro del sorbente,Después el petróleo

es atraído a la superficie de la esponja,Sin embargo esto no sería capaz de realizarse 

sin la adhesión del petróleo,además de la cohesión del petróleo que causa que mayor cantidad del crudo sea retenido en el sorbente y por ultimo la capilaridad que permite al petróleo ascender a la superficie debido a su viscosidad.

Finalmente yo estoy en desacuerdo acerca del

derrame de petroleo, ya que si esto se sigue dando muchas personas 

pueden enfermarse y fallecer sin embargo gracias a algunas soluciones 

esperemos que se resulvan todos los problemas que estos derrames causan y 

se espera que esta empresas pongan de su parte, pagando sus multas y asiendose cargo de sus actos.
