In Which one writes with his eyes half closed, such is life

Post-Release of the post edit: Because I was so very exhausted writing this post, specially the second half turned very illegible. I was with my eyes half closed, and I only tried to continue because I wanted to finish the post. As such, On September 16th 2025, I revisit this entry to correct and add to the parts that were a mess. Thank you for being here, dear friend! Good morning, dear friend, reader of this post! How are you? How have you been? I certainly hope last week for you was a week of good moments. For me, it was unfortunately exhausting, and I hope you did not have to face it as well. There was the heinous murder of Charles "Charlie" Kirk, by an unhinged, most evil and coward individual, that alone was enough. There is really no other reason strong enough to equal this shock, this most demonic act, when a nightmare drips into reality. I am still recovering, truth be told. Recovering from seeing one of my own intellectual equals being ended in such evil and cold-bl...

In Which I decided to order a second screen for the laptop

Good morning to you, my friend, reader of this post, and welcome to another set of words by yours truly! I don't think I'm doing enough to celebrate the 4th year of my blog, I'm sad, but also, I don't want to force myself into anything, really, want it to be something natural in the end. Such as drawing, also, I, for one hand, wants to draw, but on another, I don't want to force myself and come out with mediocre work. I should do a brainstorm for more ideas for stories and so on... Anyway, as the title says it, I decided to go ahead and do the biggest spending of my financial life. Or... I don't know, I'd call it investment, because spenditure has that conotation of just throwing money out the window, money that I don't have, and that is not the case, I am not throwing money out the window, I am getting something in return, and that is a second screen. Why am I doing it? Because I am done with playing Europa Universalis, or any other game that requires a fullscreen, and getting sidetracked, missing messages, just get drowned into the game, I don't want that anymore, if I am to have more freedom of playing games, more freedom to do my things on the computer, I am getting a second one. One thing that opens up with it, for example, I have Anno 1800 minimized, I could have it maximized and playing it, while I also write on the blog, on the second screen, that's just an example. Now, it was a considerable investment, and I'll pay for it as the months go by, bit by bit, because I cannot afford the full price at the moment, but I also really wanted to have a second screen, to check discord, have something else on it, while I do the main work on the laptop. I felt bad doing that, because I believed it would put me in considerable jeopardy financially, but I am more at peace with my decision now, because things will work out. Nothing will really change on my routine, at the moment. It comes to mind: am I coping with it, by writing this? Am I having an episode of cognitive dissonance? Where my idea of right and wrong becomes divorced from my actions and words? I can't say for sure, I tend to be harsh on myself and say "yes, and you should be punished severely for your lack of delayed gratification", but I also understand my needs, and those include a second screen, because I use the computer a lot and sometimes getting sidetracked, getting too immersed in a game, it is bad. But I also want to play the game, so having this option of a second screen is a Godsend. Anyway, I was vaguely planning on getting an iPad for my birthday, which is, asking my mother if she could afford one for me, so I could start meddling on digital art. But with that second screen, this may be delayed or so. It's okay, though... the iPad was just a vague promise, the second screen is a concrete necessity, for me, as a gamer and a chatter and a casual streamer, as me. I like to putting my thoughts out there! This is one of the reasons to have a blog, after all! In any case, I wish you all the best, I believe I'm wrapping up things here because I wrote a lot! I want to also go and play some Anno, or maybe something else. Ideally I'd try some Europa, but I have two things coming that makes me wanna delay me playing Europa: the second screen, and the new flavor pack and update 1.34! We shall see how it goes. I believe I should save those for another post! Anyway, love you, my friend, see you again REAL REAL SOON!
