Yayyy its getting chilly here too!
Nothing compared to colorado colds, down here in texas. but at least I'm not melting at 7am anymore :D!

I LOVE CHRISTMAS SHOPPINGGGG
As always, doing it early so things arrive on time.
I think I came on here last year when trying to pick out something for my partner. Back then we only knew each other for just under a year so I was like uhhhhhhhhh music thingssss?
But now I know him too well and I have TOO MANY ideas ;c;

So I wanna share cause its always exciting finding cool shit on Etsy!

He was wanting a Zelda themed room in our home so we decided we should do that for the bedroom. Lots of greens and nature colors, great for sleeping. So this is where I start!

(we set a $50 limit for each of us so we can be reasonable, but I might bump it to $60)
(also his bday is in December too so I get to buy him an extra thing >:) )
I'm also using this thread so I can keep track cause I have too many tabs open now

BIG MAYBE

He really wants to start a little garden on our porch, so I thought of something like these to decorate with. But we haven't started on that yet so it'd probably end up getting strung to the ceiling fan or something instead x'''D

ANOTHER BIG MAYBE

Back when he lived in his apartment, he always had this giant framed poster of this classic piece.
But now--ZELDA-FY IT!
He's seen this before and I know he'd really love it!

BIIIIG MAYBEE

because OBVIOUSLY--
Its a really decent size too! Like, not huge and not too tiny.

MUSIC AND ZELDA

These play the song of storms
HE LOVES STORMS
xD

ITSPRECIOUS

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;v;;;;;

ANOTHER BIIIG MAYBE

He's been super into writing daily poems and I think he would really appreciate this. Plus, something to attach his pen to the journal!
I could also get him new journal.....

There's so many cool thingsssss

I know there's another ACNH thread on here but it seemed more fleshed out and for a better purpose--I just wanted to make a quick thread to screech in a quick burst of excitement and hopefulness that the game may finally start filling with content soon!

Nintendo Direct ACNH updates

Updates coming on Nov 9!
ALthough the whole concept they did with the happy homes decoration bit doesn't sit well with me. Having to buy something AND pay annually/monthly, AND being locked out of it if you dont pay for it. I mean, sounds like mmorpgs but.... shouldn't be on a game that isn't solely for online play. I'll wait to see how that turns out and what feedbacks come of it.

But that aside, I'm excited! How do you all feel about the whole thing?

@star2000shadow:
here it is
Lemme know if the link works :O

@KDA Drew:
Yess I agree! although I'm very much a fan of learning along the way and googling tips later, rather than having a tutorial xD but the game really doesn't have anything TO tutorial from what I saw. Its kinda just empty rn?
It would be nice if they started to flesh it out a lot more. I'll keep an eye on it and see what happens!

@MaxIsConfused:
@milkshake:
Same thoughts! Im excited to see if this turns into a proper game sometime <3
being early access and all, might take some years since its pretty fresh. But I'm cool with waiting~

Sorry Im bad at replying on decent timing, work work work xd

@Minerva:
Oh gosh I try to do that too, make jokes on myself before someone else can. But I probably do it wrong so either way people make fun of me :'''D
I have a serious lack in social skill these days! But when I'm with my partner I get the most relaxed and outward, and thats when silly moments like these happen xD


@blue:
oh goodness lmao manakins could have feelings too!

@Minerva:
I feel like if i had friends to hang out with in the game, there might be more incentive to play. but it really is just, dress up animal and then otherwise seems more like a glorified chat room. which would've worked a decade ago, but not now days xD

but yes, i hope they add more to it!
and make the UI less... huge.
idk though maybe it's intended for children :vanora_xd:

I found this cute gaaaaaame
have any of you played it?

I mean its fun for a moment but there's really not a lot to it. you just kinda run around these various maps, collect and harvest things, to go craft into items to dress up your animal. Thats it. Some things are behind a pay wall it seems.
But its super early access so I hope they bring more to the game to flesh it out :D

I probably wont be playing it again unless they add more content
but look, I made a fox!

Lmao I love these xD
nerds rope
but
the nerds are CRACK
-spooky noises-

I agree, no one's gonna invest in this trick

@Totalanimefan:
I knoooow
but thank you to the old man for looking away respectfully and moving on! :vanora_sweat:

Surprise!! Did you know it is Voltra's anniversary?
Nope! I mean, now I do :D cant believe its been only a few years

What activity do you waste the most time on?
watching youtube or community--its all I really have time for outside of being at work, most days ;v;

What technology are you most hooked on?
Not really hooked, but I do like sitting at my pc when I come home. Also cause its the only chair in the home darn material shortages, my sofa on back order til november

What is one hobby you would like to try?
wood burning/engraving!

What is your greatest new discovery?
That my company made a change to our contracts so that they CANNOT force us to move to any location in the country on demand or demote us if we refuse. Now we're allowed to simply live our lives as asst manager and not be forced to run a store if we dont wanna.

... now if only we could shave off 2 hours of our daily shifts to have a normal 9 hour shift. And pay our warehouse employees more than min wage o/

So, right
I'm walking in the grocery store with fiance'
my adhd rattling off on tangents and mild rants about double standards and sexism in the workplace
I very much talk with my hands, ok
so my dumbass was making a point when my hands decided that they needed to emphasize the word tits

That is when I suddenly locked eyes with a random old man who was unfortunate to appear at the end of the aisle, in front of me, as I've got my hands on my boobs

and he walks to the next aisle, disappearing

my fiance was rolling, while I doubled like ohgodwhydididothat
:vanora_embarrassed:
I really ought to keep myself in check when I'm in public

@Ruby:
Okay :D
You'll have to pardon me if it takes a bit of time to finish
but I should be able to start tomorrow or weds!

@Totalanimefan:
I ate so many I might die x,x
but they're so goooood!

THats so sweet ;;
I'm glad that your mom is trying to take care of you. It can be real hard when trauma resurfaces.
Take care of yourself any chance you get <3
