Me: oh no, my stomach has been acting up a lot for 2 weeks already, and I have a trip to England in a few days... Google: You can't use Imodium for more than 48h!!! Me: Ah, shit. A literal shit! Me: Doctor, please, is there any medication for IBS? Doctor: No, unfortunately. Imodium typically helps. Me: I've been using it and it does help. How long can I use it in one go? Doctor: Up to 3 weeks. Here's a prescription for you. Just take less when your symptoms start to subside. Me: Oh heaven's bless QuQ

The Coffee Chronicles ☕︎

"A cup of coffee has forty years of memories"

- Turkish Proverb

Turkish coffee has this magical way of sparking delightful conversations and weaving strong, lasting bonds of friendship. There's a rather beautiful, historical tale that takes us back to the early 1800s, a time when Istanbul was buzzing with the love for coffee.

In the heart of Uskudar, a bustling Ottoman-era marketplace hummed with life, where the aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafted through the air. It was here that a humble coffee vendor, known by locals for his rich brews and warm smiles, found himself entwined in a tale that would span decades.

On this particular day, a Janissary, draped in the regalia of his rank, marched into the coffeehouse with an unusual request. He approached the coffee maker, a maestro in the alchemy of coffee, and commanded that a free cup be served to everyone present, except for a solitary figure occupying a corner – the Greek captain.

The coffee maker obediently fulfilled the Janissary's directive, pouring his aromatic coffee for the assembled patrons. However, his fidelity towards the principles of hospitality and the spirit of genuine connection defied the Janissary's exclusion, and the coffee maker discreetly prepared two additional cups, one for himself and one for the solitary Greek captain.

The vendor, well-versed in the art of crafting the perfect cup, served the captain a piquant cup of coffee that promised not just a momentary reprieve, but a memory destined to endure. The two men immersed themselves in the warmth of shared conversation, accompanied with the vendor's delicious coffee.

Little did the coffee vendor know that fate had woven a thread connecting their lives. As the two men weathered across the storms of time, a disastrous war erupted, and the vendor found himself ensnared in its clutches. Yet, amid the chaos of battle, a glimmer of salvation emerged. The Greek captain, who emerged as a seasoned warrior, recognized the vendor from that distant day in Uskudar.

Moved by the enduring memory over the shared cup, he extended a hand to rescue the man who had once offered him warmth in a foreign land.

Indeed, the captain did not forget the coffee service 40 years ago.

"A cup of Turkish coffee shared with a friend is happiness tasted and time well spent," the coffee maker mused, echoing the sentiment that had echoed through the ages in the very heart of Uskudar."

The story suggests that a single cup of coffee can create memories that last a lifetime, contrasting with the idea that not all long periods of time necessarily result in rich or meaningful memories, the depth of our existence is not measured by the length of time but rather, the intensity of moments we have lived and felt.

Title: Bryan360's OC - Emme, Scottie, Windy & Jo

Here’s my May’s “Secret Art Trade” for my A-Pal, Bryan360/BryanVelasquez87. 🙂

• His OC trio has come to an end, with these Final three slots in one artwork. Or rather, "four" OCs because my A-Pal wants me to draw two OCs under one middle part. Nonetheless, here are the three OCs that my A-Pal asked for:

• Emme 🦌🌻: A lovable deer who's interested in flowers & seeing cute pictures that will be fitted through her smartphone. Not to mention, Jo's long-time friend & Maxwell's love interest.

• Jo🐆🏃‍♀️: Speaking of, here's Emme's best friend & Sam's love interest who can do fast on either track & field or in the wild through the landscapes of Africa (Hmm... From Morocco to South Africa... Can she handle the long mile?).

• Scottie 🐰📚🍌& Windy 🐰🎤: And finally, the father & mother of Maxwell, May & Sam (which is adopted). Scottie is an illustrator who can draw animated cartoons with his traditional art skills of paper & notepad. Plus, he's a huge fan of "Donkey Kong" when he was a childhood playing with his Nintendo game console. And, Windy is an amateur singer who can sing with her wonderful voice. No wonder, that she's a “Carrot Princess of Pop” from her throwback school years. Nowadays, since she's an adult stage, will she participate in the U.S. singing competition (you know, "American Idol", "The Voice", or "The X Factor")? Who knows?

Aww, man! His entire OCs are now complete! Yeah, even though, I've lost my other files, which I won't talk about it, but hey, I'm happy that I've drawn 34 OCs in 2 years! 😁📝🎨 And who knows? I predict, that my A-Pal will make a brand new OCs, in his future plan(s).

But for now, I deserved a toast to myself! 🥂😊

Well, that’s all for now.🙂 If you haven’t seen my previous revamp digital artworks from this year, then I’ll provide some links down below.↓😉

2024 was 'hard-won and free,' Zelensky says in New Year's Eve message

President Volodymyr Zelensky on Dec. 31 said 2024 was “another step towards justice, a fair peace, our victory, and a life without war,” in a post on social media to mark New Year’s Eve.

“Every single day of it has been won by our warriors, by all our people, by everyone who defends, works, strengthens, and helps,” he said.

“We Ukrainians know what it means not to wait for what tomorrow will bring, but to fight for every single day, and every year of freedom. And 2024 was exactly that — a year hard-won and free,” he added.

Our 2024. Every single day of it has been won by our warriors, by all our people, by everyone who defends, works, strengthens, and helps. Hard work and courage, humanity and integrity of the entire nation filled this year. Along with care, development and love, the desire to… pic.twitter.com/uL3Tq3Gb13

— Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський (@ZelenskyyUa) December 31, 2024

Ukraine has faced a particularly tough year on the battlefield. The entire year saw Ukrainian troops on the back foot, losing territory to the advancing Russian troops in northeastern Kharkiv Oblast and eastern Donetsk Oblast.

Russia captured Avdiivka — an industrial city in Donetsk Oblast — in February, kickstarting Moscow's offensives all across the region.

Taking advantage of a poorly conducted rotation of Ukrainian units, Russian troops launched a push toward Toretsk and Niu-York, towns in the mid-part of Donetsk Oblast that used to enjoy little engagement.

Russia continued to gain ground on the eastern part of the region over the summer, gradually approaching Pokrovsk, Kurakhove, and Vuhledar.

Vuhledar was captured in October. Experts say that Russia could capture Pokrovsk within "months."

As well as further challenges on the battlefield, 2025 will also bring with it U.S. President Donald Trump.

Trump’s previous criticism of U.S. military aid to Ukraine and his intent to “get out” of the war has sparked concerns that his approach may involve pressuring Kyiv into concessions to achieve a settlement.

Zelensky's full post reads:

Our 2024. Every single day of it has been won by our warriors, by all our people, by everyone who defends, works, strengthens, and helps. Hard work and courage, humanity and integrity of the entire nation filled this year. Along with care, development and love, the desire to change reality for the better, no matter what. We Ukrainians know what it means not to wait for what tomorrow will bring, but to fight for every single day and every year of freedom. And 2024 was exactly that — a year hard-won and free. Another step towards justice, a fair peace, our victory, and a life without war. I wish us all strength, unity, and inspiration in the coming year. Happy New Year of life and freedom—Happy Our Year!

Unshakable Faith (2023)

Episode 23 Breakdown

Concerned by Snow Wolf's threat, Dr Bai is worried when he comes home to find Nurse Bai absent, and growls at her to tell him if she's going to be out late when she returns after shopping with Nurse Zhang Ling.

Officer Hongmei catches up with Ji Danyang in the cafeteria and asks him how the expert meeting went and whose approach will be followed. He advises that his approach will save the project 3 years of development time, and Officer Hongmei is impressed and states that his brain makes up for all of his shortcomings. Nurse Bai joins them and they congratulate her on her promotion.

The expert team hasn't seen He Xiwan for a couple of days and they're worried she's upset. They fake an emergency to pull her out of her room and give her cooked sweet potatos as a surprise and she reveals that she'd been busy working on calculations for the hull design that will move their testing forward even quicker.

Officer Hongmei updates Police Captain Chen on the workshop investigation, they've narrowed down 4 workers who have no alibi for the night before the accident. He counsels her to not narrow her suspect pool prematurely and to make sure to not upset the mood of the workers as they are vital to the project. Nurse Bai comes in to change his medicine at the same time Officer Tongbin advises them that Assistant Welder Rui has left the factory grounds.

Officer Tongbin and Officer Hongmei find him fishing for shrimp, and ask him about the acetylene he took to make his lamp. He described how the acetylene reacts with water and can be explosive and the following day gives a demonstration to the experts on using an acetylene explosion to weld titanium plates. Excited by the technique, the experts move forward with their design for a pressurised cabin test.

Ji Danyang visits Hongmei's dorm to gift her the rutile bracelet he promised to replace. She says that this gift was originally from Nurse Bai and he will have to come up with something else as his first gift to her.

The KMT get a report that Ye Xia, the spy from Hong Kong, has killed Ji Danyang's teacher An Wenshan. They also know about the upcoming pressurised cabin test.

Police Chief advises Ji Danyang of An Wenshan's death, and the belief it may not have been an accident, encouraging him to continue the Water Drop Project in his teacher's honour. Nurse Bai and Officer Hongmei offer their condolences and try coax him to eat something but he's sick and won't stay in the hospital, choosing instead to stay in his dorm and work on the pressure calculations for the cabin test. Nurse Bai brings some medicine for his stomach and the experts drop by to check in on him, but he sends them away.

The expert team comes to the workshop to test the newly created pressurised cabin. As they need the pressure readings from inside the cabin they need to have a person inside during the test which is risky, and He Xiwan insists on doing it herself despite several other experts including Ji Danyang offering to take her place. She declares her trust in her design, Ji Danyang's calculations and Master Welder Niu's construction, and the test begins.

........................................................

Our math man and Hongmei have at least settled into communicating via friendly banter without being actually hurt by it. And she looks very happy to have her bracelet back, but is that because it was from Nurse Bai or from Ji Danyang??

I love how the expert team all looks out for each other, and that He Xiwan isn't told that the test is too risky for her because she's a woman, her opinion and dedication is respected as much as anyone elses.

Uh oh. I am just waiting on our math man's depression to have affected his calculations and for something to go wrong. I really don't want that to happen, but with the timing of his teacher's death, narratively that would be the next apt obstacle for them.

[niuniente]

Hi Niu! I wanted to stop by and let you know that I binged all of DHD last night and this morning. It's FANTASTIC and I'm a bit mad at myself for having slept on this for so long. I've been reading the updates you post here off and on and I *finally* took the plunge and read everything. I love it I love it I love it! You are phenomenal 💖💖💖💖💖

Welcome to read DHD! I'm genuinely so glad and happy you've enjoyed it (I binged it myself recently, too - I need to reread what I have done occasionally not to miss anything).

Good thing for arriving a bit later than others to any series is that there's lot to watch/see/listen and you can indulge yourself as much as you like :D

I do have other comics which you might also enjoy.

FUZZY is completed and tells a story of a seer Irene and a solid black monster called Fuzzy. It was very liked and got on Webtoon's front page as recommended series. READ FUZZY

Demon Sanctuary has been in a hiatus for a long time but I do genuinely want to finish it - even if it took me 20 years. It tells a story of a priest Furmann, who rehabilitates demons instead of exorcising them. One of his demons is a little girl's ghost-demon Suzie, who screams at flowers. READ DEMON SANCTUARY

I'd also like to serialize these three poly-flatmate-idiots at some point with 4 panel style but I have not made any big decisions yet. I have their comics on Tumblr now, tagged as #flatmates (needs a proper name)

Ironically speaking I know how Demon Sanctuary ends and I just need to draw it but I haven't gotten to do it...

Second ironic thing is that there's also another comic which I have had in mind for 7-8 years by now. I know the characters (Poju and Siri, series has no name), I know the story, I pretty much have it all thought from beginning to its end. Again, I don't know when (or how!) this story will come out. I somehow have a hunch that some other form than a comic would fit it really well. A book, perhaps? A game?

NOT TO MENTION that there's also ANOTHER comic idea I've been thinking for a few years now and doodled the characters a bit. It would be about a demon who is VERY proud of being able to manipulate anyone - until he meets a woman who doesn't react to him in anyway. Kind of the same idea as in Lucifer series, but a comedy.

Wow, where these keep coming from?! Not that I complain but I have only two hands, 24h per day and health issues (albeit slowly getting better).

But anyway, long story short; THANK YOU FOR READING DEATH-HEAD'S DEAL! If it's up to me I'll keep drawing comics until I croak or my osteoarthritis wins.

May this year bring fortune, happiness and joy to everyone.
