In Which we return to SimCity 2013, victim of blind spots...

Good afternoon, my friend, reader of this post! Happy Tuesday, how are you? How have the first week of 2025 treated you? An auspicious start, so I hope! As for me, I am okay... at moments, because I have been trying some different things on my games and computer, I feel in the dark, walking in circles with no purporse and so I become frustrated. The hobby has also caused me to be less mentally available for drawing or writing, at least over the past few days, which is also a source for dismay. In retrospect, though, it's not all bad. I think my first drawing of 2025, the cherry tree, tradition since 2022, looked quite charming, and I trust I will do some more at some point real soon, there is no reason for any stress I'd say, even if I stress all the same. The year caused me to become surprised with its walking, because on a chain of events that started with SimCity 4, released 2003, I ended up returning to the infamous title SimCity 2013, famous for ending SimCity as a franchi...

In Which I am in the mood to write!

Hello! Good morning, my friend, and welcome to another entry on the Divagation Store! How are you, how are things going? I hope you are doing fine, and good things happened from yesterday to today, I don't know, much can happen in 24 hours, and also nothing, it's a mystery. As for me, something happened, I received a lovely new statue for my bedroom, that I'll share with you guys afterwards, and I ordered pizza, because I was in the mood for it, and I had some change lying around, which is rare. I should've saved it, but I also enjoyed the pizza very much! I am also in the mood to write today, not usual, either. I wasn't going to start an entry on this blog, but decided to do so because I was having such a good entry on my personal journal, why stop? And also, here's my new Companion: Admiral Spike!

Lovely, isn't it? Very happy with this addition to my bedroom! My new desk fellow! The one Admiral that's gonna defeat all the evil water Squirrels! Lifted me up! I got it on a massive sale online, it wasn't necessarily the cheapest, at around 20 dollars (124 reais), but at the same time, I've been meaning to get one of those since the first time I saw one of those statues, 2017-2018, I think it was worth it! It's quite the coincidence its name is Spike, when I have a streamer friend named Spike as well! Time for another shoutout? I think so! JustSpike is a very nice guy, super friendly and chill! I recommend you guys checking on his channel and hang out with him if you can! HERE is the link to his channel! I wasn't planning on doing a so, but well, you guys at this point know me, I go whenever my mood takes me, writing wise, this is why I call it Improv Writing!

I am in the mood to write, and also to play Europa Universalis, but it is such a massive game, pressing the play button always makes me intimidated. I am also having a quite good game as France, I plan on colonizing the Brazilian Region, and hopefully some other as well. But I also want to regain my lost territories, that I lost for the Ottomans, of all big powers, the strongest, the most hard to beat in a fight. What other games could I play? Well, at this point in time, I have many games available to me, old and new, that I have played before, that I haven't. Some games, like CDs, we just buy to have them. We can't say the same for books, as books are to be read, what we can say is this: some books, most of them, we read just once. Some others, those are rare, we read more than once! That's a better way to compare books to games. On another note, I hate this bright mode of Blogger, it hurts my eyes, specially since I write usually when it's dark. I hope they don't neglect this platform much, because there aren't many places that allow for writing so freely. Wordpress is a paid entity, that it's too professional for me, that write for enjoyability (if there's such word). I think blogger would benefit of having a dark mode, that would be ideal. I wonder when they'll update the platform once again, if they'll do it. I hope they don't shut down. I'd lose quite the archive if they do!

I think, even with my mood to write isn't totally gone, it's time to wrap things up, it's getting big, too much info! Maybe I'll try to convert some of this mood for writing into working on a new drawing, perhaps? I could do it... Thank you for being here, my friend! I wish you a bright rest of the week! And I hope to see you again real real soon! Till then, bye!
