Guapis catalanoparlants, fa uns quants mesos que la @aya-kr i jo estem tirant endavant un projecte moníssim anomenat "Dones Modernes": una història il·lustrada disfressada de revista d'època (i més concretament, del 1900).

És totalment en català i tant els textos com les il·lustracions són nostres. Segueix les històries de dues amigues i la gent que té la sort (o la desgràcia) de compartir ciutat amb elles.

De moment estem a instagram i twitter. Allà hi pengem dibuixos i anunciem quan sortirà el proper número (ja en portem tres!).

Si hi voleu fer un cop d'ull, l'usuari és @/cafe_maurici a tots dos llocs ❤

I’m long overdue for some Aubrey-Maturin art, so here’s a quick doodle of the boys.

part of the problem with conscious consumerism is how exhausting it is–every week there’s some article about how cloth bags are actually worse than plastic bags, or wait no the reusable ones are bad too, and have you considering that houseplants can be bad for the earth as well? And it’s so easy to get caught up in this whirlwind of micromanaging all these tiny choices and feeling immense guilt for making the wrong ones, instead of realizing the more straightforward and more radical truth that unsustainable practices will not change until our political and economic systems do

its a trap, and we’re not going to get out of it until what matters is standing up to colonialism and capitalism and not fretting about which kind of grocery bag is the least bad for the environment

This beautifully embroidered costume was seen twice in 2019. It was first seen  in キングダム (Kingdom) where it was worn by Ji-Hoon Ju as Crown Prince Lee Chang.  Several months later it appeared in the television show  나의 나라 (My Country: The New Age) where it was seen on Yeong-cheol Kim as Yi Seong Gye.   

The lighting in My Country is harsher, making the depth and detail of the embroidery not as evident as it is in Kingdom, with the exception for the area of the sleeves, which gives be better idea of the dimension. A different belt has been utilized.

Comments left by Kentaro Miura (author of Berserk) on Young Animal Magazine when he was drawing Berserk and commentaries at the end of the book.

This has been shared before but it is well known that manga authors have brutal schedules they have to work under. So many have died before old age due to health issues.

To quote Junji Ito:

“Sleep is very important. Everyone get enough sleep. Many manga artists die young and it’s because they don’t sleep. Your best ideas will come to you when you’re sleeping. Please everyone get some sleep.”

Remember Manga authors are human beings that deserve better work conditions in their industry.

RIP Master Miura.

Thank you for all the hard work.

De Salses a Guardamar i de Fraga a l’Alguer: les comarques de parla catalana una a una. 26/88: el Vallès Oriental (Barcelona Metropolitan Ambit, Catalonia).

Vallès Oriental (“Eastern Vallès”) is a district that consists of a flat territory completely surrounded by mountains. The central area is very populated and growing, while the mountains have a low population. Its capital city is Granollers.

Some of the mountains in this district include Montseny, Montnegre, and Serralada Prelitoral. Erosion has shaped some of these mountains into cliffs and canyons, such as Cingles de Bertí.

On one of these cliffs is located Sant Miquel del Fai, a monastery built in the 15th century over a site inhabited by Benedictine monks since the 10th century who benerated the Archangel Michael in a cave. In 1832, the monastery was abolished and, since then, the place has become a very popular holiday spot for Catalans, especially writers and poets.

Another well-known place in Vallès Oriental is Cardedeu, a city that became trendy among the Barcelona bourgeoisie. They built a lot of houses to spend the holidays and weekends away from the big city, and for this reason Cardedeu still has a lot of beautiful houses built between 1880 and the first decades of the 20th century.
