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. The evidence over fraud or at least something very eerie happening to the process is enough to, unfortunately, I must tell, because some certainly deserve the shaming, absolve people from any b...

Picture of the week! In which I missed Monday's post haha

Good morning everyone! Happy Tuesday and I wish you the best! How are you today and how are things going? I do hope all is well and things are fine! As for me I woke up, drank coffee, hang out a the stream of a friend, and onw I'm here trying to recover the lost time, God how talkative I become when I drink coffee! Moving on, how is the weather where you are? Here it is pretty much summertime, which doesn't fit a nice Christmas, I know, but well, you work with what you got, and I love Christmas time either way! Christmas in the tropics indeed, and speaking of Which, I completely forgot to post anything yesterday, just when I said I'd try not to procrastinate in this month haha, well, like I said, try, is not the same thing as succeed, and anyway, sometimes you fail, which is fine, I always love every day is a new day so we can try again, and save the success we already had on the day before, you see, that's the road of life, I'm afraid, paved with failures, but also with small gains, leading towards happiness I hope, sometimes the road is better than other times, but anyway, I divagate myself, which is also the name of this blog haha, well anyway, today I wanted to share more Christmas with you guys! So let's jump into it! I also would like to share a small poem with you guys on Air Conditioning, so here we go



Air conditioning
Simulates cold
False cold
But he’s good on trying 
Cold is refreshing 
Simulates cold
False cold

Air Conditioning

Air Conditioning
Makes the air bearable
Turn hot places comfortable
But it simulates cold
False cold
Air Conditioning

Air Conditioning
Contributes to Civilization
Introduce tropic regions 
To refrigeration
But it only Simulates cold
False cold
Air Conditioning

Air Conditioning
Brings Christmas to Australia
Convert places to Antartica
But only simulates cold
False cold
Air Conditioning

So this is an impromptu Poem I started in November 2019 and just started adding more bits to it now, really at an improvisation level! I like playing with words, it's cool, this one was more on an experimental level as well, inspired by the opera Einstein on the Beach at first, but it lost its minimalistic appeal as I wrote more on it, like I said, I can't help it, I get talkative when I drink coffee haha, specially in the morning! As I cant drink it on the afternoon or God forbids at night, since that would prevent me from sleeping forever! I know that from practice, you guys, have I mentioned I did a photography course this October? It was a small one, only two weeks time, and there, you could find a coffee so strong that I drank it in 3PM in the afternoon and didn't managed to sleep that night, wow guys what a strong coffee!! Why do I always feel like I'm leaving something out of the post? Well, must be an intrusive thought, anyways, I think I'm ending the post here, thank you so much guys for reading, wish you the best like I said, and see you next time!
