Quote of the moment Vol.2

“Any one thinking of the Holy Child as born in December would mean by it exactly what we mean by it; that Christ is not merely a summer sun of the prosperous but a winter fire for the unfortunate.” - G. K. Chesterton, The Streets of the City, The New Jerusalem

In Which December flies in the sky with Santa Claus and the Reindeers!

Hello, my friend, reader of this present post, maybe past ones as well, perhaps future ones too. How are you, this new week? Another one for the height of the most beautiful season! How is the christmas going? For me, it is quite tranquil, I don't want to lament much. I do have some bad moments, for example, as I mentioned on the other post, when Sims 3 broke on me, and took me a week to figure out what was causing such issues. I have great news, concerning that! I figured it out: it was OneDrive! I understand better why so many have Windows 11 fatigue, though I resist to share of the sentiment. It did bother me that I was facing the OneDrive overreach issues, but once they were solved, I could resume my Sims 3 shenanigans. Of course, as I mentioned before, I was even committed to take a break from the game. Though such commitment is not necessary, nor justifiable anymore, neither is respectful towards all my hard work on figuring out the issues, an era ended with Sims 3, but anoth...

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!
