How different are things, really?
I was thinking about the past today, and how it feels like I haven't been really in touch with my feelings when it comes to writing in a long time. It's rare that I have the space and time alone to fully experience the world and write about it. I think back to a time in my childhood where I was writing a short story for school, and even though it was just a simple assignment, I felt so passionate about what I was writing. I can remember the way the air felt on my skin. There was a thunderstorm r...6

Find Me in the Atmosphere
This weekend, I wired my website into the AT Protocol. It took an afternoon and one stubbornly old config file, and now my writing lives on the network itself. The short version: Bluesky rolled out support for Standard.site, a set of shared lexicons that let long-form writing live on the AT Protocol itself. In plain...Personal

Trip to Soap Plant WACKO
I went up to LA today with Fig, it was a lot of fun! We were initially going to go to this art supply warehouse place (not in LA) but it apparently is right on the edge of an evacuation zone for this chemical tank that is potentially going to EXPLODE,,, and we didn't want to take the risk on that... If the chemical tank were to explode, it is expected to explode in the opposite direction of the art supply store, but still, we didn't want to risk it. So we went up to LA instead and went to Soap P...2
La caza del movimiento de lazo
En un viaje de Madrid a Barcelona en un Frecciarossa 1000 de Iryo noté un movimiento peculiar, como si el tren me meciera. ¿Qué estaba pasando? ¿Sería el mítico movimiento de lazo, la inestabilidad que puede surgir en trenes de alta velocidad circulando en rectas?divulgaciónfísica
Reminding myself why I write
The last few months, I've been dealing with writer's block. For the love of me, I cannot come up with something to actually write about and it's been stressing me out. As if I were some huge and famous writer who needs to continue feeding the content machine so people are happy with me. I somehow keep forgetting that the real reason I haven't written a single word in 4 months is expectations. My expectations, of course. It's weird how critical of yourself you can be become the moment you start d...writingpersonal
Journal 020825
Yesterday, my golden –retriever– boy Mantequilla woke up with a little hump behind his nose. After much deliberation, investigation and back and forth calls with multiple vets, I now recognize these and call them by the, well deserved, term of fucking mosquito bites. If you're a dog person and it's affected often by mosquitoes, you know how hard dealing with them is. If you have a solution, let me know, 'cause if seems that everything that really kills mosquitoes may actually try to kill your do...mantequillapersonal
On being bored
Every now and then, because of my wife's job, I found myself seating in a coffee for what nowadays could be considered long periods of time—that is to say, two hours, or 3, tops. Today is one of those days, but what makes particularly interesting is that I didn't have time to prepare. I didn't have the chance to charge my Chromebook tablet before leaving, so I only brought my Kindle, my phone and earbuds. I started with some browsing and socials before my cold brew arrived. Once the caffeine sou...personalfrom aelo
Finding home away from home
I have this, very important, very serious, promise to myself: I will visit my friends at least once per year. To note: I will travel to them. With the exceptions of the pandemic years –when my friends got trapped in my city because US closed the border– and the year of my wedding –because saving money– I've been fairly good on keeping my word. Every year I do the, more or less, same ten hours of roadtrip to them and, while it's tiring to drive that far and for that long, I find myself catching t...from aelofriends
Unsociably social
I've spent most the time since the pandemic in a remote / hybrid position at work, which I now swear by and do not want to change, and while it has a incredible high number of benefits it also has really deep downs. I, personally, have found that the most striking change is how my social interaction has changed. I'm by no means antisocial or lacking in the social behavioral rules department, but I've noticed how slow, for lack of a better word, I've become. It's like I'm out of condition in my c...from aelopersonal
On forgiveness
I cannot remember exactly when this came to my mind. I mean, it was today, but I cannot pinpoint at which moment today –as it has happened with most things since the pandemic. I just got the thought burnt into my brain. It was screaming loudly and with an intensity that's now lost but I can recall vividly. It said: And I know it's not as easy as it reads. I mean, I would be the first one to say fuck that, there's things that cannot be forgiven and it's something that's hard-coded in me. You scre...from aelopersonal
On writing nonsense with Oscar
I don't feel the pass of time... Until I return here and try to make something out of my thoughts. That it takes this long is not something I despise or hate, it's just something that happens. That I'm still here, and still me, being able to come back to my corner of the internet is a thing I underestimate. I don't really feel the need to write when morning comes, but I would be lying if I say that I don't think about it. It's all caused by this juxtaposition of my character: I wish I could writ...personalfrom aelo
The one where I meet again with old friends
For how often I use them, it's ironic how much I hate social apps. Why? Well, there's nothing social about them anymore. It's just memes and some bragging here and there. Maybe it's just me not wanting to connect? Or maybe I'm not able to do it in the way the apps set me up to do it. Giving a like to a photo doesn't mean Hey, pretty cool. Where's that and what are you up to? Then again, if I received a comment like that I may forget to reply. Anyways... Lately I've been trying to change. I'm try...from aelopersonal

Blog en tiempos de COVID-19 II: La venganza
Que tal lectorsillos, buen dia. He vuelto. Por fin pude concentrarme lo suficiente como para poner en orden unas cuantas líneas aqui. Les dire la verdad..Esta es la segunda vez que escribo este post. ¿Por qué? Pues resulta que la forma anterior en que estaba escrito — que por cierto fue escrito hace 15 días — era una versión muy simplona y repetitiva del post anterior que contiene actualizaciones respecto al COVID. Y como no iba a serlo, si realmente no ha pasado mucho y la situación no ha mejor...from aeloespañol
