pfft, I got my Switch in 2018.

Preordered my first for release with Breath of the Wild. Bought my current with Animal Crossing New Horizons.

anybody up for a visit tonight? Im just trying to grind for bells with exotic fruit and shop for items I need.

@Jen0125 @RCtheWSBC @Joshs_Name @ReggieTheReckless @LinkPizza @Pointman

Do any of you guys still play?

I'm online now if someone is free for me to shop?

Ogurisama posted...

What AC needs is a Red Panda villager!

And giraffes, besides Gracie.

If someone is available, can I visit their island to shop?

FourthDimension posted...

I remember him giving it to me right then and there. I could be misremembering though.

I'm dumb. I gave it to Blathers and completely forgot. It didn't even click until just now that he needed this one before expanding the museum...

Ogurisama posted...

It would be cool to see new tree types, and I wouldnt mind a garden type thing
He could rotate rare trees, and maybe exclusive rare fruit, add in things like vegetables. Maybe ferns, or even garden themed furniture/house plants

Agreed. Pineapples, mangos, durian, or evening pomegranates.

That would be cool, but the lot size would make that hard to work out. If they future proofed the lot size, I would say defiantly do that. Like on the side right now, it was just a little sitting area with nothing there. And Leif puts up a tent after spending X number of bells. And on the next Nook Upgrade (which I hope is next patch) It becomes one shop.

A greenhouse-type of building would be cool. Misters and pleasant music.

Can I visit someone's island? Nook's Cranny has a poor selection today.

I'm not attracted to her now. However, she was very attractive in this video.

I got a meteor shower last week, and I'm getting one again tonight. so I'm pretty sure the update made them more common.

Same. I had one last night and the night before. Unfortunately, no Celeste yet. I don't remember if she's tied to the island center building update?

Do you make it with water?

Usually, yes. Sometimes almond milk, as regular milk doesn't work for my stomach.

I prep them on Sunday and eat them throughout the week.

plain oatmeal

I eat this every day. A cup of oatmeal with fruit and two scrambled eggs.

The concept seems nice enough, but in practice, it'd be too easy to get around to make any real difference. Cap it at $1 billion, and you just get multibillionaires paying some random people $10,000 a year each to hold on to $500 million for them until they want to access it, or continuing to hide it in offshore tax havens like they currently do to avoid paying taxes on it, or even just giving it away to friends and family members instead of letting it be taxed away and used for public benefit. It wouldn't be impossible to make it work, but it's going to entail outfoxing a whole lot of very highly-paid accountants and lawyers, and the sheer cost of the audits required to enforce it long-term could very well outweigh the potential benefits.

Rather than a hard cap, if you want to cut down on wealth disparity, minimum wage should instead be defined as a percentage of the highest wage (including bonuses) in the company. If a CEO wants to make more money, they must first pay all of their bottom-rung staff more money as well (and, by extension, everyone else in between). Growth remains possible, just not to the explosive, exploitative degree that's currently standard, and that growth benefits everybody that contributes to it.

This is always the response to such ideas, but I think it fundamentally misrepresents the issue. The vast majority of people saying such things do feel that, for the most part, the financial elite have earned the privilege to live the rest of their lives in complete luxury. Nobody's saying they don't deserve to be rich. The problem is that they've often hoarded enough money to live thousands of such lives, more money than can ever possibly be justified as useful or meaningful for a single person, and their removal of that money from the economy is very bad for it.

My thoughts exactly.

Hell, the elite rich buy entire apartment buildings or apartment floors and never live there, with the sole purpose being to hide money in investments to avoid taxes. They do this with land, too. Invest and just let the money sit so it goes unnoticed.

The root of the problem is that people who have millions upon trillions of money that they're never going to spend in its entirety. They eventually usually just pass it along to their kids and the kids spend it or add to it and the money just stays within the family tree or in offshore accounts to hide from government.

But hey, that's capitalism for you. And anyone who voices otherwise is a dirty socialist commie. /s (but not really /s)

If we're going with just fast food chains,

Best: Big N' Toasted from Dunkin' Donuts or the bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit from Chick Fil' A
Worst: Egg McMuffin from McDonalds. The smell alone makes me gag.

My all-time favorite, though, is the hot ham and cheese from a local area chain, La Bou.

No. They'd just *pop*.

I don't agree that prisoners should be allowed to vote. However, given that their reason for being incarcerated is sometimes not by choice, such as being incarcerated for a crime that should have been followed by rehabilitation in the case of drug addition or they were wrongly-imprisoned by officers that were prejudiced toward their race/religion/upbringing/etc or a myriad of other reasons, they shouldn't be stripped of all of their rights. That said, the criminal justice system is wholly broken and is in need of serious reform, just like everything else in this country.

when I got a dupe last time Redd came by, I traded it on Reddit. I'll be getting another dupe tomorrow (gallant statue), so I plan to do that again.
I have 20 pieces right now. a few weeks ago I scanned the trade boards every day for a chance to get more art. one day I even got three new pieces for free.

@WastelandCowboy I'm ready whenever.

Cool! Ill finish up something on my second character and be over.

Today is the first day since diving was added that I've been unable to find Pascal. Only found one scallop today, and he didn't show up for it.

I get that a bit. I find a scallop and no Pascal.

Getting drunk, watching movies that aren't appropriate for a child, and having promiscuous sex with random girls.

the church of scientology has proven that no action is beneath them, especially when it comes to their higher profile cultists. will for sure does more for their cult than her, and their cult is fucking dangerous.

maybe they shouldve gone in for some couples auditing. does scientology do that?

heres hoping that she gets the kids and leaves the cult so they can have some semblance of a normal life when the dust settles.

And hes repeatedly denied hes not a Scientologist soooo

Frigging Goron dances are way worse than anything the other has.

Fuck. Thanks for reminding me of this horrible part of the game.

I preferred Spirit Tracks, but I'm also a lover of trains so...

You do know you can drown with a life vest on right?

Yeah, but the likelihood of this happening is much less than not wearing one at all.

FourthDimension posted...

I should be. I just need to remember to check up on this thread.

Sweet. I have two characters Im playing and with both, its a bit of a competition for mining resources. Thankfully, Im sort of dividing their workload. The Resident Representative is trying to get stuff going and occasionally donating stuff and the other is working on museum donations when theyre not crafting.

SunWuKung420 posted...

So sad.

Yeah. Just a sad example of someone who didnt wear life vest.

Phantom_Nook posted...

Are you on now for the trade? I have to leave for work in 20 minutes.
@FourthDimension

No. Im still at work. Been a long shitty day.

ill catch up with you tomorrow?

FourthDimension posted...

@WastelandCowboy offer is still open

Also, I got Gullivarr twice in two weeks :)

I might take you up on this, at least to get started. You going to be available this evening?

This topic doesnt have much potential anymore. Needs pics to really make something worth .

ReggieTheReckless posted...

You want literally every recipe thats just sitting on the beach at my town? This seems like the best way to get rid of them. You could just come and take/use

That works. I may also partake in some fruit? I only have oranges. I planted three cherries this morning.

Ogurisama posted...

Why did you start over?

wasnt by choice. I booted it up last week and got notice that my island was corrupted. Could either start over or not. Choosing not was like ok, but you cant do anything so lol.

Phantom_Nook posted...

when do you want me to come drop them off?

Later works. Im in the office right now but I should be available this afternoon.

Something to think about is making your meals over the weekend, freezing those youll eat lasts in the week. While eating the same thing day after day is a little tiresome, you get used to it after a while. Also spicing it up helps.

Phantom_Nook posted...

I've been selling my recipes lately, but I'll start saving them for you if you want.

nah its ok. Ill just work on them as I get them.

Phantom_Nook posted...

I can drop you a stack of tickets if you want.

That would be muy beneficioso and incredibly generous.

Do you have any duplicate DIY recipes I can use as well?

Oh. And house storage limits. So small. So small.
