Luxury brand companies such as Christian Dior are now planning on making and selling hand sanitizer. So now you can spend $60 per ounce for a bottle the size of what you could literally get at Walmart for $2. If I’m going to be spending a lot of money on such a thing that bottle had better be made from diamonds, have a 24K gold label and cap, and function as an iPhone!

People are idiots, the panic buying is completely unnecessary and harms access to goods which would otherwise be plentiful.

We're fortunate that younger people generally don't get severe disease. Hopefully with appropriate measures and social distancing spread can be managed.

Nanananana bat flu...or so we are led to believe. So the Covid-19 (AKA The Corona Virus) has arrived, hand sanitiser is flying off the shelves, people are panic buying, schools are closing, events are being cancelled (E3!!), some people are wearing masks and everyone is being told how to wash their hands.

How is it affecting you? Are you worried for your health or staying safe and cozy indoors until this all blows over? Where I live is apparently the 'Corona capital' (or was for a while) as we had the first few cases as well as some 'super spreader' so I probably should be more concerned but it's hard to care too much. I figure I'll either get infected or I won't, thankfully I think my work would be pretty lenient about it and I've got plenty of games to play and things to do if I have to isolate.

I preordered it digitally. I’m hoping that I won’t get any Villagers that I hate and we can kick out a couple of them if we need to.

 Definitely picking the game up! Dunno who to preorder it with though and time's running out! I'm honestly looking forward to everything at this point. Hopefully our boi Brewster will make a comeback so we can get those coffees in though. Will probably keep tradition and call my town "Fuzzy" like in New Leaf and Wild Worlds.

 Frog chair tho.

Anyone getting the new Animal Crossing? I'm sure there have to be some fans here, I've preordered my copy from GAME with the Tote bag. What features are you excited for? We can now move cliffs, waterfalls, bridges, having raised parts on our house and proper outside decoration plus craft furniture, get more customization options, sit on froggy chair and HAVE KNEES. Have you come up with a name for your island yet?

 Had to bite the bullet and buy new Joycons for my Switch today. The amount of drift I'm getting with my left Joycon is honestly criminal. Can't wait to actually enjoy playing the Switch again, though. Especially with New Horizons coming up.

I managed to get a telemarketer not to call my dad’s business for another week by claiming that the person in charge of the credit card machine fees was on vacation in China but unfortunately is being quarantined and stuck inside a hotel room due to the Coronavirus and no one knows when he’ll be back. The woman was shocked and I’m going to use this excuse next time she calls. This is one thing that the virus is good for.

I think it is a real shame that this website isn't as active as it used to be. It could definitely do with a lot of updating.

It's a bug/feature tracker that I used when development on the site was more active.
