Animal Crossing is Getting Old
Animal Crossing: New Horizons came at a perfect time. We were inbetween acceptance and denial, reaching for something to bring back normality. Thankfully, that's Animal Crossing's whole thing. We were all chomping at the bit to start our island adventures with some even petitioning for the game to be released early. It started off amazingly, with all the brand new features like keeping us island representatives active. And then some of us hit a wall.

An Ambivert's Guide to Isolation
"Hey, Megan," you're probably thinking. "what the hell is an Ambivert?" Well. An ambivert is someone who falls in the middle of an introvert and an extrovert. "Surely the two dynamics of introvert and extrovert are enough," I hear you cry, "people can only be one of two extremes!" I think most people would actually idenfity as an ambivert more if they knew about it. An ambivert's main idenfitying aspect is that they do enjoy being in a crowd or group of friends depending on the context but also have the limit of a social battery. It is the very definiton of the phrase "I came out to have a good time and I'm feeling so attacked right now." This isn't about the definition of an ambivert, though.

The Sims 4 is a Hot Mess
The Sims 4 is ugly, and stupid and I hate it. That's it. Done. Easy. But if I have to go into more detail.. I really like the art design in the Sims 4. The clothes look great, the hair is fun. The level of inclusivity is unlike anything we've ever seen as the game adds in clothing and hair from every walk of life. The new CAS system? Irreplacable. We love all this stuff.
