In Which we talk about Apathy: how an Empire fell by a thousand papercuts

Good afternoon, dear friend! This post is going to be a big one in size, I had a lot in mind to assemble! Hope you are well, and hope the weather is lovely! I am happy it is another day on the christmas season, yet I also worry that this post is quite big! Anyway, I in advance beg your forgiveness for not writing some words properly, my eyes are bothering me... I hope my point may come across anyway... let us jump to it... There has been a number of bad events over the past weeks. In Brazil, we are closer to the meme "I can't complain about things (or else I may be in judicial jeopardy)" than not. The election here was a disaster, and not because some group voted one way or the other, that is the wrong way of looking at it. Truth is, it was one election with a predetermined result.

Song of the week! In which we swim to the ocean floor

Hello again everyone, it's so weird how this Friday feels like Saturday already! Here I'm again, now to bring y'all the song of the week! Today, my recommendation brings Madonna back, and one of her most successfull albums: Ray of Light (1998), which also happens to be the year I was born, a very nice coincidence!


It's being a very unusual winter this one I'm having, very hot days, not enough rain, which gave me an idea on what tune to highlight today: Swim! Okay, the song doesn't have much to do with enjoying the water or the pool, instead is one subtle one who talks about sadness and escaping, literally swimming to the ocean floor, in order to run away from all the troubles. It can sounds a little dark, but I promise it doesn't feel too much like that, it's a really nice song and I loved it! I totally recommend it to you guys! Let me share it with you!

And that's it for this Friday! Wish you all a really great day! I see you next time!
