inA lady at the Grand Rapids library said she plays Stardew with her 9 year old every night, and that stuck with me
The lights are much brighter than the old wagon. When the sun goes down, I can see where I'm going." I'm actually going to push back on the whole co-op with kids thing. Splitting farm chores sounds sweet until the kid takes the good tools and wanders off fishing for three hours while you do all the watering. You also lose that quiet solo time where you just zone out and plan your own layout. Honestly, two separate farms on two screens might save you more fights than sharing one.

inMy brother laughed at me for playing Stardew at 0.5 speed, but that slow farm got me through 2020
Did you see that study a while back about how slow paced games actually help with stress? I read something about how games like Animal Crossing and Stardew let people sort of reset their brains when everything else feels out of control. Honestly that makes total sense for 2020 especially. I tried the half speed thing once on a rainy day and ended up playing for like six hours straight, so I get the appeal of just letting the days crawl by. Your brother owes you way more than $20 at this point.

inWarning: reading that the average person checks their phone 96 times a day actually made me put mine in a drawer
Totally with you on this one. Every single person I know who got hit with that "96 times" stat said the same thing, who are these people? Sounds like they just watched a bunch of teenagers at a mall food court for a week.
