Comprar LA ATALAYA RECORTADA CONTRA EL CIELO (editorial Libros del Futuro)

Sinopsis:

Bran tuvo una adolescencia complicada, y su vida adulta no es mejor. Una sucesión de pérdidas familiares, una gran cicatriz en la cara y sus circunstancias personales han forjado en ella una personalidad esquiva.

Y como si fuera una maldición añadida, la protagonista hereda y debe hacerse cargo de una casa familiar, epicentro de buena parte de las desgracias que se abatieron sobre sus seres queridos.

Una visita a la enmohecida y arruinada vivienda, ubicada en un pequeño pueblo madrileño, sumergirá a Bran en una travesía angustiante por túneles oscuros, estancias claustrofóbicas y seres terroríficos.

Respecto al color del culo de un camello, pues ahí me has pillao porque no tengo ni idea. Tendría que buscarlo.

A ver si va a ser como cuando la gente llama "color vainilla" a algún tipo de amarillo y luego vas a ver cómo es una vaina de vainilla y es marrón caca-de-oca.

No pasa nada si estos términos se usan en el lenguaje coloquial o en un documento técnico, pero si escribes un artículo sobre el uso correcto del castellano hay que tratar de evitarlo.

Que tampoco es tan grave, claro, pero queda feo.

Romero once said that he got inspiration from an unexpected source: the "Black Smurfs" story by Peyo. I can't find the source (I'm commuting with a crappy connection).

Awesome. Discovered that I forgot the master passphrase for my server's encrypted disk. Again. After the last crisis, I saved a copy. On the laptop I just nuked. Fortunately, I still have all the disks setup from last time to just copy everything back. Always one disaster ahead of annihilation.

No sé cómo, pero voy a estar en la mesa redonda del día del tentáculo. Si os apetece ir, ya sabéis ❤️

I'm a big fan of the movie and the Stephen King's book. I consider both to be totally different stories with a somewhat similar plot and characters with the same names and I like them for different reasons.

Regarding the movie Lolita, it's OK, but the depiction of the eponymous character there invalidates somewhat the overall idea: Sue Lyon (the actress) looks too adult for what the book is trying to convey. The character in the book is clearly pre-pubescent and looks like a child.

Lo que sí sería triste para mí es que esa desaparición supusiese pérdidas de puestos de trabajo, que no lo sé aunque tampoco me extrañaría.

A bit cumbersome for my taste, but there are some good ideas there.

Sculptures of two knights, one who resembles Sam Elliot and the other Woody Harrelson. Text reads: Contemplating that time in the 1520s , during the Ottoman siege, when Budapest was saved by Same Elliot and Woody Harrelson.

But the best geriatric game is, of course, Doom.

This is such a fun movie with a somewhat unique premise.

Yesterday’s Mystery Person was Karen Silkwood.

From Wikipedia: Karen Silkwood was an American chemical technician and labor union activist known for raising concerns about corporate practices related to health and safety in a nuclear facility.

She worked at the Kerr-McGee Cimarron Fuel Fabrication Site in Oklahoma, making plutonium pellets, and became the first woman on the union's negotiating team.

"Britney Spears. Dead."

🤦 I'm so sorry.

Wait, are there any movie with a title that isn't made automatically funnier by adding "...Between my Legs"?

How shitty some people can be?
