ok, the tent is sort of to the side, but it’s off-center and it cuts off the walking path along the river, I mean come on

i put D to work i told her if she's going to be player one she has responsibilities and she can't do the fun stuff she wants to do until she labors doing the unlocks so that the rest of the family can enjoy the game. i'm considering this a meta-level explication and analysis for her of the capitalist themes already present in the game.

i zipped through the 5k miles in my first playthrough, looking forward to opening to a house. My partner has no intention of playing this game, which is a bummer.

The price Timmy is willing to pay for imported fruit is a revelation

i finally visited another island (a mystery resource island, basically) and it happened to have the same native fruit as my own (pears). we eat a lot of pears here on Boneyarden

I'm telling you people, need to get on the poxyfule slack so we can share announcements of when airports are open

honestly, i'm afraid that if i get on poxyfule slack i will lose any shred of productivity i ever had, whether working or free-time/creative hours

i did manage to steal a coconut tree from the island i visited, though. hope it's not an invasive species!

whoa how do you steal trees

send me pears

eat your mega native fruit, and attack the tree with a shovel

just looked that up last night so i could do some landscaping around the front of my house
and to steal coconut trees, of course

i built and paid off a house in two days, so i’ve decided i’m moving to this island in real life, it’s the only way i can get ahead in life now

Hey guys it ocurred to me that I am playing southern hem and y'all are playing northern, so we absolutely need to visit each other - opposite season fish and bugs! Right now I got seasonal cicadas, grasshoppers and such til end of March. Tombot I saw you online earlier but your gates werent open dammit.
Alas now I am working for the next 3 hrs.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 27 March 2020 02:47 (four years ago) link
Oh also I landed on a mystery island y'day and it had BAMBOO all over the place. I assume it will be a future very handy building material so I yoinked as much as I could.

Ive already caught a few of the rarities! Coelocanth, dorado and arapaima!

But New Horizons is also a seriously stressful game. Tom Nook increases your debt about a millionfold in, like, the first 20 minutes. Spiders sprint after you at breakneck speed. And don’t even get me started on how passive-aggressive some of the island’s citizens can be. (They should’ve called this game Crossing Animals, amirite?
wrong! incorrect! this is a chilled out game! it can be a stressful game, in the same way that meditation/yoga can be stressful fi you make it that way

however, the main point of the article is to teach you how to multitask, so i will put up with this nonsense and read on

hope more nintendo items appear in-game. got some nice areas setup on my town now: a little beach hangout, a market with stalls, a swap shop... would like to move some residents' houses but it is spenny...

PRO TIP: instead of collecting items around the island and selling them to timmy one at a time, simply roll the rich fucker

The seemingly miles of beds being set up at Javits. It is absolutely unreal to see what the National Guard & first responders have put together here in just days. pic.twitter.com/dD0AQg4PO4— Sarah Boxer (@Sarah_Boxer) March 27, 2020
Heh.
My daughter has learned you can apparently travel to an island full of tarantulas, protect yourself with holes you've dug, and then harvest at will.

it really really annoys me that wallpaper covers up your windows

i want to change my wallpaper but it makes me claustrophobic
Windows vary by wallpaper, try out different ones!

I got the Super Punchout wallpaper. Paired with a dirt floor and a haystack bed. Weird lifestyle I’m leading on Dang Isle, land of ripe peaches

I still don’t have a goddamn ladder
― El Tomboto, Saturday, 28 March 2020 00:47 (four years ago) link
i unlocked it late last night, just before i went to bed, and was so tired that i thought "what will i use the ladder for?"
now, it seems obvious!
you'll get it soon tomboto

I built the bridge then i located 2 of the new resident homes on a diff bit of the island not reachable by the bridge lol. I wonder how that will work.

Also, muttering "gotta remember to give that fish to that horse later" is a thing I say now.

I just unlocked a flooring and wallpaper that looks like a garbage dump. Need tires, cans, and old boots as materials. I’m so doing it.
