Dying isn’t any fun… but at least it’s a living Mickey7 is an Expendable: a disposable employee on a human expedition sent to colonize the ice world Niflheim. Whenever there’s a mission that’s too dangerous—even suicidal—the crew turns to Mickey. After one iteration dies,

SOTW0624 Eidola "No Weapon Formed Shall Prosper"

Since we're in the process of knowing each other, let me tell you this straight up: I really, really, really like hardcore music. This week one of the bands I follow in the genre released new music and, of course, it has become the song of the week.

Ready for the Super Bowl LVIII?

Hey guys! I just wanted to have a quick post about the Super Bowl LVIII. It's not like I follow sports – you may have noticed from the lack of following in the posts – but even I know the Super Bowl is much more than sports. For me, it&

SOTW0524 Too Close To Touch "Control"

In 2022, I rediscovered Too Close To Touch, a band I loved but unfortunately forgot about, only to find news about the lead singer, Keaton Pierce, passing away a few months prior to my rediscovery. I haven't stopped listening to them since then. Well, on January 31st guitarist

AELO Book Club

During COVID, some friends and I started a little book club in an attempt to spend more time reading – more like forcing ourselves, I guess. We would each propose a book, give a brief synopsis of it and vote on them – obviously reading the one with more votes – and then

SOTW0424 Yellowcard "Ocean Avenue"

Just last week I was telling you about how working from home led me in a search for ambient music and what I've found so far. Well, turns out I was missing on some familiar faces, too. Yellowcard released a reinterpretation of their legendary hit "Ocean Avenue&

Crunchyroll's Winter 2024 Lineup - First impressions

The time has come. I've spend the last couple of weeks watching Crunchyroll's Winter lineup for 2024 and these are my first impressions for each series. Will I drop them? Which one will I rank as the best of the season? Guess you'll have

Palworld, what Pokemon should have been

Palworld is the best I've played in a while. I've spent a few hours playing it during this weekend and I cannot stop thinking about it. I just wanna play more! #Palworld has sold over 4 million copies in only about 3 days! Momentum has increased

SOTW0324 Kenichiro Nishihara "Sincerely"

Ever since starting working remotely – from home, if you may – there's a constant need in my life: background noise. Working from home has a lot of positives, but there's also a few negatives that can make your experience really shitty. I would say the worst of

SOTW0224 The Smiths "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out"

Yeah, yeah, I know. The freaking song from (500) Days of Summer. What a joke. Well, yeah, I'm with you. That movie – which we all loved and now love to hate – is the first thing that comes to mind when hearing the song. I don't know

The longest Japanese TV commercial... and it's for my favorite anime series

There's always some reporting on crazy specific – or ridiculous – records in every field where records can be set. Like, you know, the longest time breath held voluntarily underwater (for a male), the longest stand-up comedy show by an individual and, my personal favorite, Tesla's fastest lap

Trying to Watch Crunchyroll's Winter 2024 Lineup

Hey! It's a new year... Do you know what that means? New anime. Fuck yeah! Well, I'm trying something this year, and just like people on the internet say, I'm doing it only for the content. Nah, just kidding, I'd do it

New year, new AELO (kinda)

If you know me, you know – or quickly realize – that I'm a "that's so cool... but maybe it's not for me" kind of guy and, really, I'm not afraid to let you know I am. That applies most of the

CDLS 47 2023 - Corook CGI (Louis La Roche Remix)

Ayer estaba con mi prometida en nuestra cervecería favorita – ¿única? – de la ciudad y mientras disfrutabamos una buena cerveza comenzo a sonar un beat y unos hit hats que reconoci inmediatamente. En cuestión de segundos estaba en la preparatoria otra vez. No tengo mucho más que decir al respecto, sólo

Tal vez no tener comienzo fuera el principio. Tal vez no inician las cosas ya finalizadas. Lo se y, aun peor, hace tiempo que lo sabes: nuestra propiedad no se conjuga. Aquellas vibraciones no tienen eco, no murmuran, no bailan. Pese a la frencuencia, no hubo resonancia. Pintamos lienzos en

Why is writing so hard?

It's starting to feel like writing is a little bit more difficult each day, but why is that? I remember in my teenage days some of my friends used to do writing. Some did poems, some used to write songs, some used to enjoy when a teacher asked
