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.

Song of the week! In which the author tells the reader some bedtime Stories

Good Afternoon of Friday to you, dear reader! How are you today? How are things going? As usual, I wish you the best! I'm so happy to have you here today on this song of the week Friday! As you know, I'm having a dream week, and the song we're seeing today of course is going to be related to that! We're having our known and dear (though only in our hearts, she's not too dear actually, and proud of not being a dear, but ANYWAY, LET'S SEPARATE THE PERSON'S PERSONAL LIFE AND BEHAVIOR FROM THE PERSON'S WORK PLEASE)  guest: MADONNA, so we can join her in her album BEDTIME STORIES, so we can have a BEDTIME STORY!


As you guys know, this very overlooked album by her is very close to my heart, the whole aesthetic of it fits me very well, with the pastel colors and subtle sounds and sleepy soft reference, definitely eye candy and ear candy as well! This song is absolutely fantastic, being very unique and inventive, as also is Madonna, no one can say she's not unique and inventive, she can pick everything, even saturated themes, and make them fresh and interesting, with no hint of Cliché or tacky, even if the "everything" in question includes cliché and tacky things. Anyway, it's a very soft and subtle song, with an R&B background and a relaxing, sensorial hypnotizing eletronic beat, one of the best pop songs I heard in the last 10 months, I can get tired of it sometimes, but I never 100% stop listening to it, it has it's safe spot in my mind! I think you might like it as well, cause who knows? Give it a chance if you want to, you're totally invited to do so! And if you want to look for it but don't have Spotify do not distress, I have the Youtube link to it right here!

I have another post coming today from a sketch I made because of a dream, but for now this is the end of this post! Thank you so much for being here, you're 100% the best and please do never doubt that! Let's close this post with the cover of Bedtime Stories, because wow what a fantastic cover
