A glimpse in the day to day hardships of living in a True Socialist Paradise™
The Venezuelan blackout saga is far from over, it’s going to be one of those long story arcs from the looks of it. Most of the country is now suffering through a very strict “Load Management Plan” (also known as scheduled power rationing but with fancy words) through the entirely Read more…
And thus here we stand, two weeks after Venezuela went through the worst blackout in its history. We still do not have an official and formal explanation of what happened; Maduro’s regime has adhered to the ‘Cyber and Electromagnetic attack’ buzzword narrative that places the blame on America, Donald Trump, Read more…
There really isn’t a dull moment in Venezuela; in my previous post I mentioned an unsustainable “Snapshotted reality” and how everything seemed to be stuck and unable to move forward. I’ve also mentioned in the past how we can’t say “Well it can’t get any worse” because it can, and Read more…
Note: This post was meant to go online before the two long blackouts that took place in Venezuela, so with that in mind I suppose that it didn’t aged well lmao. March of 2019 is upon us; I don’t know if it’s just me but this year is certainly going Read more…
This is a follow-up to my previous post, Antipyretic. The past weeks have been quite interesting in Venezuela, a new game is now being played and the ultimate prize is the country itself. There’s an invisible aura in the air, you can’t see it, you can’t smell it, but you Read more…

Aw yeah boys and girls, 2019 is the year were the Venezuelan government turns the tide. This is going to be the year of our definitive economic recovery! Our Worker-President, Driver of Victories, and Son of Chavez said so! “Maduro claims that 2019 will be the year of economic recovery” Read more…
Here we are, December at last! Deck the halls with boughs of holly, t’is the season to be jolly; I wish I could say that without sarcasm. I really wish from the bottom of my heart that we could exclaim that out loud in this small corner of the world—you Read more…
“If you truly wish to make someone suffer then put them through the torture of obtaining any document at a Venezuelan public office.” —An acquaintance. Imagine for a moment that you’re the Revolutionary, Bolivarian, Anti-imperialist, Chavista, and Socialist Venezuelan Government (I didn’t made those adjectives up). You present yourself to Read more…
Music for the Masses Oh yeah! It’s that time of the year again! The office of the Mayor of Caracas has covered all corners of the Libertador Bolivarian Municipality in joyous celebration. Get your dance shoes on and put a smile on that sad and malnourished face of yours—it’s time Read more…
