In Which Civilization has a SimCity moment, a bad omen

Hello there, my good friend, kind reader of this post! Happy Friday! Hopefully another beautiful day, maybe we should indeed give it the benefit of the doubt! How are you, my friend? How have you been? I have not write much these days, alas... It is that thing of having some stuff in my head but not being able to take them out to my satisfaction. I mean, we could as well be seeing the collapse of the Civilization franchise, for example. I think I wrote it before here, that I am not optimistic about this title, that their heart (if at all) is in the wrong place for this entry... I could smell the miasma, but now it is clear: reality is even worse than the predictions and projections of before. The Steam consensus, this morning, got as low as 33%, an absolute catastrophic number for the franchise, it is a snapshot of the bad User Interface, the lack of customisation on the game, its mechanics ossifying the main building, or ot is what is implied on even the milder of reviews.

Album of the month! In which we talk about the Superb Christmas Record by Hannah Huston!

And here I am again! With the album of the month! But for the ones dropping by right now: hello to you! And welcome! Wonderful to have you here and I wish you the best!
So, going back to the album of the month, today I listened to the new christmas album by an artist I've been a fan and been following since 2016, Hannah Huston, that I first heard of on the 10th season of The Voice. It is simply SUPERB! I'll just go ahead and share the link to it right now and then talk about it, so you guys will have an idea of what I'm talking about...


First of all, the title of the album is really wonderful, and it delivers what it says: Believe in Christmas. Believe on this wonderful holiday, on the magic of it. After listening to the superb voice of Hannah, so hard to define because it is just so spetacular, please believe me, it is spetacular, it is hard not to believe in it. Featuring many known christmas songs, she brings her immense personality to it with blues, jazz, soul, that even evocates the name of another wonderful soul artist that I met on The Voice: Michael Sanchez. After listening to that, and knowing the similar background of Michael and that he also has work on Christmas, I wonder how spetacular it would be for them to have a song together, that would shatter earth, that is for sure! But coming back to Christmas and Hannah, this is indeed an album that caught my attention way too much, going beyond Christmas even, it's quality work for its diverse rhythms, for the hard to believe voice of Hannah, her great approach to classics of the season, truly some album that has the power of improving days. This is indeed quality work, and I couldn't recommend it enough for you guys! If you guys want, go give it a listen and I think there's a good chance you won't regret!
And for today this is it! Thank you so much for being here! Wish you the best and happy December for you!
