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 say hello to the month of March!

Hello to you, dear friend, reader of this post! How are you today? How is the weather? As for me, I am okay, just had some stress this morning - couldn't find my laptop charger - but I'm okay! As I said before, I have reasons to believe things are looking up! One thing I hope March brings is rain, rain to put down the fire of summer and bring the chilliness of Winter, such is the time of Fall.
Carnival goes, but I'm returning home today, something I'm looking up to. I had a reasonably nice time on the beach, but I do believe it has come the time to return to my place, so I can spend the rest of the holiday resting there.
My classes resume this Thursday and I hope they may be enjoyable, somehow. I hope interrupting my other course to not require too much paperwork or headache. One step at a time. Maybe I'll work on some nice drawings, maybe I'll play some games, hopefully I'll have something fresh coming this month or the next. I certainly need to pay some bills I have, I will do that sooner rather than later. And I hope I may keep writing on the blog! Today I'm not particularly inspired, but it's okay! One word at a time and we'll create a post!


Anyway, this is a picture I edited recently on Lightroom, which has become a very nice pastime, just getting old pictures and enhancing them somehow (not always satisfactory, but it is rather fun to do it) the result is awesome, like, you can see how strong the current is, the wind and the sun. But, through the power of editing, I made the details appear, as before they were hidden by the sunlight and the blurriness of the camera lenses. Sometimes this blurry of the light and of the surroundings can bring something of value to the photo, but most of the time it just hides the delicate details.
And so this post comes to an end, I try to write the post on my new phone. For sure the experience is better, because of the larger screen, though I’d still love for Blogger to somehow develop an app. Anyway, must be costly for them to do so, and the lack of updates in the platform makes me always worried about its future. We never know how long it will last, and I believe I have mentioned that before. Either way, good afternoon to you, wish you the best, and I see you again real soon!!!
