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...

In which we have a Farewell to Ethan

Hello dear reader of this post, and good morning, and happy Wednesday! Hopefully it will be a nice one, a day in which I'll manage to do lots of nice things, and feel happy by doing them. I did had some anxiety this morning, but I also took my meds, and decided to shake things a bit, by coming to my comfy chair. Well, this week has been nice, though some bad news happened. Sometimes bad things happen in good times, and I'm not necessarily on a bad tiding! I can't wait to move places, for example! But anyway, as I said, bad things in good tidings, so today I'd like to say some words for my friend Ethan, or Ethanerinow as I'd love calling him, though he didn't approve of that too much. So, it goes like this:


Ethan is a great friend, I would say was, but he will still be a friend, no matter for how long we stay without chatting. I don't remember anymore how we first start talking, it's kind of a blur at the moment, but we did, and he offered me support in many key moments of my life, such as when the monster humiliated me in March of 2020, almost a year from now. We had some streams together, was a nice small era of my life, in which we'd play Uno (Ivan was there as well, my other friend), Don't Starve, at some point we tried playing Europa Universalis, in fact, he gifted me both of those games, so kind of him! He's strong, stronger than he realizes, he is down to earth, sober, neutral, distant. I told him I'll never forget him, and I hope I do not, though many of our good conversations are a blur at the moment. He introduced me to the show MushiShi, that I watched for a while and enjoyed it, a rare experience I had with Anime. Door Monster introduced me to him, even if he doesn't follow DM anymore, and even if I still do, and I love DM, I am not on their discord server anymore. He turns to a nice memory, it's a poetical way of putting it, though I hope we may chat some more in the future, even if it's a far one. Time moves forward. Anyway, it is what I wanted to say in this post, a farewell to Ethan, my online friend that I love, as he moves on in life. We won't stop being friends, but I don't know when I'll see him again. He didn't like my drawings, or my writing, and wasn't afraid of telling how bad I am, but well, anyway, I posted the drawing I made of him either way. Thank you, dear reader, for reading this, and I hope to see you again real soon.
