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. I did not h...

In which we have a Farewell to Ethan

Hello dear reader of this post, and good morning, and happy Wednesday! Hopefully it will be a nice one, a day in which I'll manage to do lots of nice things, and feel happy by doing them. I did had some anxiety this morning, but I also took my meds, and decided to shake things a bit, by coming to my comfy chair. Well, this week has been nice, though some bad news happened. Sometimes bad things happen in good times, and I'm not necessarily on a bad tiding! I can't wait to move places, for example! But anyway, as I said, bad things in good tidings, so today I'd like to say some words for my friend Ethan, or Ethanerinow as I'd love calling him, though he didn't approve of that too much. So, it goes like this:


Ethan is a great friend, I would say was, but he will still be a friend, no matter for how long we stay without chatting. I don't remember anymore how we first start talking, it's kind of a blur at the moment, but we did, and he offered me support in many key moments of my life, such as when the monster humiliated me in March of 2020, almost a year from now. We had some streams together, was a nice small era of my life, in which we'd play Uno (Ivan was there as well, my other friend), Don't Starve, at some point we tried playing Europa Universalis, in fact, he gifted me both of those games, so kind of him! He's strong, stronger than he realizes, he is down to earth, sober, neutral, distant. I told him I'll never forget him, and I hope I do not, though many of our good conversations are a blur at the moment. He introduced me to the show MushiShi, that I watched for a while and enjoyed it, a rare experience I had with Anime. Door Monster introduced me to him, even if he doesn't follow DM anymore, and even if I still do, and I love DM, I am not on their discord server anymore. He turns to a nice memory, it's a poetical way of putting it, though I hope we may chat some more in the future, even if it's a far one. Time moves forward. Anyway, it is what I wanted to say in this post, a farewell to Ethan, my online friend that I love, as he moves on in life. We won't stop being friends, but I don't know when I'll see him again. He didn't like my drawings, or my writing, and wasn't afraid of telling how bad I am, but well, anyway, I posted the drawing I made of him either way. Thank you, dear reader, for reading this, and I hope to see you again real soon.
