In Which Coffee standands for comfort, and April ends with some videogame novelties

Good afternoon, my good friend, reader of this present post! How are you, today? I hope and I do pray your week has been proceeding alright? As for myself, I am okay, just recovering I suppose, from a day where my anxiety was above average! Quite the pain... not sure what caused it.  In part it is not actually that bad, concerning the fact it was a week of releases on the videogame sphere, of the niche I am happily a part of! We had the new DLC for Victoria 3, the Great Wave, focusing on the naval gameplay and Japanese Meiji Restoration. This one is causing impact on a negative note, even, because the changes in Navy gameplay broke the game in some areas, which are being fixed, currently, just yesterday two more patches were released addressing the most concerning problems.  Lovely bunny painting by VeryBerry! Zoom in for the exact username on Insta and Twitter/X!  We had the release of a huge update on the indie title Memoria Polis, a city builder more focused on storyte...

In Which I am scared of running out of titles for the blog's posts

Good morning, my friend, reader of this post, and I wish you the best! How are you today? How are you today? How are things going? As for me, I am okay! The release of the remaster of Pharaoh and the new continuing update to Vic3 has kept me happily busy! I think I have mentioned before also, classes are back, but I'm yet to properly return to studying, that is not ideal, I must return (or actually start) a proper studying routine. Hopefully today I'll do it, at least one class at the website. I am still to finish that drawing I started, but with the work I did that day, I'm more happy and disposed to return on drawing, perhaps today or any of these days I'll finish this one, and start a new one!! I am also on the adventure of reading the life of Lady Thatcher, as I mention I am on Volume two, and sometimes I get sad because thing seemed to be looking up in the 80's for freedom, while today it seems like we are close to a global dictadorship, either that or the apocalypse. It is very easy to feel dismayed and utterly smashed by how awful things are turning on the world, because the ideas of freedom are constantly being rejected, because the ideas of free markets and free enterprise keep being dismissed. I am aware and I fully subscribe to those, but as a "reward" I get to see the world collapsing due to their stupidity of following collectivism, socialism, that awful monster that destroys everything it touches... the book is a must, indeed a masterpiece of its own, a formidable work about an extraordinary woman. The world needs her more than ever today, and yet, like the Late Romans were denied of an Alexander the Great, we are denied of a Margaret Thatcher on leadership and ideas. On a lighter tone, I am always worried sick about repeating myself on the titles of my posts, this blog has been around for almost 5 years now, and sometimes I feel it's getting harder to not repeat myself in them, I was gonna type "in which I just chat about life" but I probably used that one before. Anyway, also, I am getting used to this keyboard I got, it's not one of those fancy ones, true, but well...

Isn't this image lovely? What a wonderful print! I found it on Pinterest, so many nice things there!

I really needed this! A post just to chat with you guys about what is on my mind, instead of a themed post. Both of those are important and balance is required! Balance, something I tend to fail at, alas. And what I'll do after completing this post? I really am not sure, but I think I could play some Vic3, continue my most excellent gameplay as France. Maybe continue my drawing, do another Pharaoh chapter, this time I'll be going to Meidum, to build some more stepped pyramids to Pharaoh Huni. They are not the very fancy pyramids of the mid-late old kingdom, but they have a certain charm to it! I've been sad because some have been so mean to this formidable project to revive the old city builder... The reviews plummeted, right now they are at 71% of approval, that hurts because I don't think the game deserves this backlash, at all. So many lesser games receiving more approval, I blame the sweaty gamers, what a plague in this earth those are. All of that being said, I am happy to wrap up this very productive post! I really hope I can return real soon with more thoughts and ideas... Hopefully one or two more posts before wrapping up February? Seems like it! See you again, as I like to say, real real real REAL real soon! Happy Weekend!
