Lonely.

I sent a postcard to myself in the future on Animal Crossing. It’s dated to arrive in a month. It reads:

hai. are you still alone?

Playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons

I got Animal Crossing, since a lot of friends were raving about it being good for being holed up for the time being. My first reaction to it? From the slack channel dedicated to this game:

gwenix uhm… so I’m an indentured servant?

[…]

gwenix geezus, this game is basically Early American Experience, but without all the pesky indigenous habitants in the way.

[…]

gwenix OK, I am no longer an indentured servant and am now a good little capitalist consumer.

No one else was as amused by this as I was.
