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 chat about future post ideas, plants, new monitor, and so on, just what comes to mind

Hello everyone! Good monrning and happy Tuesday! Another day to just write on the blog, something I haven't done in some days... I feel the impulse to apologize, but also, I don't want the posts to be mediocre ones, ones that I won't be proud of publishing, but anyway, sometimes we just can't tell if it's going to be a good one or not, just gotta write! Today, I am in high spirits, not necessarily overly inspired, or with a topic in my head, just in high spirits! So I believe that's a nice way to start. It's been raining a lot, even more so than the expected for this time of year, I like it, I like the rain, I like the cold winds of June, just the chill atmosphere. But, with the rain, and also my grandma not being necessarily motivated to do anything for this corn season, I haven't seen many fireplaces, yet at least. She didn't even decorated the house for it, alas. I won't comment on it, just happy to be around, it's not like corn season is Christmas, but still, the events of 2020 still reverberate today, in a break of spirits for celebrating anything to do with gatherings, going out, doing some effort at all. Such is the goal of the state in the end, break the spirits. It unfortunately worked for us, at least, for now. I just received my new screen, so that is nice! Now, to get used to it! Because I wasn't counting with the fact this thing is way way bigger than my laptop screen, I don't know if mom will approve of my spenditure, It was expensive, the screen, and I don't have a solid income, so I just divided the payment in months and so on. Hopefully it will be fine, I have no reason to think it won't be. With the new screen, I rearranged the desk once again, in order for it to fit it nicely! As for the drawing tablet plans, still up in the air, more distant now, because I haven't been drawing much, even, something I'd like to change, I'd like to be more productive, and I believe a second screen is a way on that path. One step at a time. Also, I received a new plant from my aunt! It is so cute! And I hope to take a picture of it, a decent one, soon, so I can post it here!

What are the plans for the rest of this month, that went by quite fast? I have this idea to write a bit about my favorite historical figure, Marie Antoinette, I should rewatch the movie in order to do so. I've been thinking about getting into movies a bit further, but the fact is, we live in a dark ages for movies these days, and I have watched most of the ones that concerned me so far, that I know of. I'd maybe write about Lupin III, the anime, in the future, because I've been getting back to it and I love that show! I really do, all the characters are so amazing and so on, and the writers go absolutely bonkers on the stories of the show, they have so much fun with it. Too much fun, at times. 

Now, I believe it is time to wrap up this one, this post, I mean. Thank you, dear reader, for being around on my divagation store! More to come real real soon, as writing is a nice productive pleasureable activity. Cheers for that!
