In Which we have a post for the Thanksgiving Holiday 2025: from an Exhausted Brazilian to dear America

Good afternoon, dear friend, reader of this present post! It is another day of November, the week of Thanksgiving too, in advance I should say happy Thanksgiving, and I wish you the best. It would be needless to add, but I will do it anyway: grateful to all my dear friends, online or IRL. I am grateful for you, dear reader! And all the good things that came to be this year of 2025, the year of the APopCalypse, the year of the collapse of Brazil's economic purchasing power. I would add moral collapse, societal collapse, overall the burning down of a whole nation, but it has been gone for a while now, what we have is the crumbling of the rubble. Anyway, still, in my personal life, even with the exhaustion, the tragedy, and all sorts of burning out, I am grateful, I am okay, I am cheerful because it is Christmas season. I will not let any catastrophe take this from me, if I can help it. I still have some agency, as such, it is Christmas, I should decorate whatever is left of my rubble...

In Which we say Farewell November! First official month of Christmas Season!

Hello everyone! Good morning, happy Monday! Merry Christmas Season, Happy Thanksgiving season also, I know the hype for saying thank you died out a bit, but it is always important to say so anyway! And happy second last day of November! How was your month overall? My month was alright I'd say, just enjoying the computer, didn't spent much overall, as the end of October saw me refunding AOE4 for lack of having a proper machine to run it. I did spént some at the end, because it's Christmas anyway, I got a subscription for some music course, that I believe it can add something to my life, I got Stellaris, which is a game I've been on the fence to get it for a while, this end of November is not only Christmas, but also the season of big discounts, so better take the best of what we can get. Christmas decorations arrived late, unfortunately, but fortunately I already took some pretty wonderful pictures of it. In spite of some bad stuff that happened yesterday, which I'll tell, won't hide anything from you guys, a friend blocked me for the like 10th time on Discord, always feels like the last time we'll chat, but well, anyway. Time moves forward, and sometimes I get sick of his lack of thick skin. And I'm saying this because sometimes I feel really sick of being "moderate" or "looking the both sides", nah, I'm representing myself, I'm saying that without the care of looking biased. Anyway, Back to Christmas! Took some nice pictures, more to come, of course, and I'm glad I got to have a very big night of sleep, because otherwise I'd still be sad and upset due to friend issues. I had a very good breakfast, which is nice, also! And I'm already searching for some wallpapers for December, of course it will be filled with Christmas and wonderfulness! Let me share one of the pictures I got:


Found it on the internets and I'm very happy to see it! All the beautiful blue of the night and the yellow of the reindeers! A dream come true! I've been talking to a friend from Austria these days, he is wonderful and we have a lot in common, such as the love for Christmas, a love that many share, thankfully! In my fashion, I'll also change subject just like that, I will remember this November as the Europa Universalis era, one that came after the vacumn that I was having after the Anno 1800 era. Important to say, I still love Anno, and they are coming with some more content soon, not sure if it'll be the last content for the game, ever, and they will be working on a new title for the franchise in the future, so we better enjoy each moment! But yes, I've been playing lots of Europa, it is a mad fun game, it puts me in the charge of running a nation, waging wars, raising monuments and upgrading them, expanding territory, taking care of the budget, of the diplomacy, describing like that, reminds me of Civ, but it's only superficially similar to Civ. Well, I'm overstaying here, the post is getting long! You guys know how I feel about long posts, don't you, at this point? Can't believe it will be 4 years of blogging this 2022! Wow! Well, hope I can write some more real soon, specially when December arrives, but maybe (30% are the odds) before that also. See you all real soon, wish you all the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
