In Which we return to SimCity 2013, victim of blind spots...

Good afternoon, my friend, reader of this post! Happy Tuesday, how are you? How have the first week of 2025 treated you? An auspicious start, so I hope! As for me, I am okay... at moments, because I have been trying some different things on my games and computer, I feel in the dark, walking in circles with no purporse and so I become frustrated. The hobby has also caused me to be less mentally available for drawing or writing, at least over the past few days, which is also a source for dismay. In retrospect, though, it's not all bad. I think my first drawing of 2025, the cherry tree, tradition since 2022, looked quite charming, and I trust I will do some more at some point real soon, there is no reason for any stress I'd say, even if I stress all the same. The year caused me to become surprised with its walking, because on a chain of events that started with SimCity 4, released 2003, I ended up returning to the infamous title SimCity 2013, famous for ending SimCity as a franchi...

Music of the Week! In which we wonder: was all of this For Nothing?

And hello again!!! After the album of the month, time for the song of the week, our last of August!! The day is still fresh, I'm still on my slippers, and I hope you're still fine! 
Today I wanted to bring a song by one of my favorite artists: Riley Elmore!! He was my absolute favorite on season 11, back in 2016, and I became a mad fan of his, and I still am! Riley is just superb, but if I start talking on him this post will be much bigger than I was intending too, so let's just leave the appreciation post for later, for now we wonder: was all of this For Nothing?


Here's Riley, btw

He released this song recently, and I was very excited and curious to hear it, cause he's amazing and I'm such a fan! I was expecting something Jazz from him, since he's a jazz singer, instead the song has a lot of R&B and it's much more like a modern pop song or a contemporary jazz, it was something I wasn't expecting, so it took me a while to get comfortable with it.
But listening to it for the third time, I was completely sure that song was fantastic! Riley's voice is so soft and subtle and milky, I love it so much, and in this song we experience it at its best! The lyrics are nice and the whole track is really well produced!! I cannot wait to see what he's coming next, cause he's so wonderful!!!! I definitely should make an appreciation post on him very soon!
And if you don't have Spotify don't worry! The song is also on Soundclock, and you can listen to it right here!

And that is it for today!!! Thank you so much for following me on this musical Friday!! You're the best!! And let's say Goodbye to this very nice August! Hope 2019's August be fine too!
