In Which November 2026 is welcomed with Christmas and more Artificial Intelligence Thoughts!

Good morning, my friend, cordial reader of this present post! Happy Sunday, and happy November!! The month building up to the best of the year! We are closer to the end of a deeply chaotic one, speaking of which, closer than not. 2025 was quite eventful, but 2026 makes 2025 looks as tepid as 2015 in comparison. As the Christmas part of the year unfolds, more and more breathe relieved, though the perspectives for 2027 are nebulous at best. October was a huge pile of anxiety. The glee of the first half of the month, where I live, turned to immense dread and resentment after the election results in Brazil. The events of such horrendous circumstance are still unfolding. I wrote it was as if the end of the Soviet Union... my more pessimistic side thinks it is more akeen to the Hungarian Spring, though. Perhaps, as Poland, we will have a anticommunist upheaval now, and reap the good rewards later. Perhaps we will have a moment of chaos before it implodes, like with the Soviet Union... the ca...

In Which Victoria 3 is coming in 9 days!

Hey everyone! I am so happy to see you! Welcome to another post of the divagation store, I hope this one may be less chaotic than the last, even if I'm still proud of that one, because I wrote it entirely on the phone, with just some minor editing on the computer. How are you today? How are things going? I wish you the best, as always! How is the weather? Here, it is hot, but it did rain a bit yesterday, which makes me happy! I bought some notepads on Amazon to organize myself better. I hope they arrive soon! Planners turned to be way more expensive than I was expecting, but anyway. Next week, not only I hope I can dedicate myself further to college, but also hope I can practice some drawing as well, something I have done very little the past weeks or so. It will be a season of waiting once again, because Victoria 3, as I mentioned on the title of this post, is coming very shortly! I pray that the release may be okay, that the game is good, and people are not too salty about any flaws it may have. I say this because I really don't want Vic to go the way Imperator, another Paradox game, did. I am trying not to expect great things of Vic3, but the fact is Vic2 is a very good game, that deserves a worthy successor.

Today I really wanted to bring a "best of Instagram" Picture, something I haven't done in some weeks. This one is from my senior year in High School, bringing us back to 2016, which was... a mixed bag year? I mean, I did accomplished everything I wanted to accomplish, so it was nice, it was also a year where my intellectual journey truly began, and I believe for many others as well. I discovered some classical liberal and conservative venues and dove deep into them! It was magical, because it was a time where for the first time I discovered I had a point, and I could start building up my confidence better, and my own ideas. This picture was also taken at that Christmas season, so that is wonderful. Christmas is the best!


On that trail of happenings, I canceled my Adobe plan today once and for all! I don't need it, nor I want to need it. I will do editing on in-built apps such as the Windows Photos or the in-built editing picture app for iOs. I also decided to try out the Windows Scanning app, and it works, as good as the HP smart! I mean, it does not allow for editing, it's just barebones, but well, I can edit on Windows Photos. I don't consider this a setback on any career I may have had on Graphic Design. Life is not about closing doors for good. Just that at this moment it is clear my priorities are others.

And with that, I suppose it's time to wrap up another post here at the divagation store, that is still going strong even after 4 years, soon to be five! Dang, 2023 is around the corner... Too early to mention it? Anyway, I wish you the best once again, and I see you again real real real real soon!
