Cool People Crossing
Dear Kari,
Did you ever feel like Animal Crossing made so much sense because it's kind of a game for avoidant people?
I love the Gamecube era euphorically and Gamecube Animal Crossing is such a vibe. It's perfect for two people to play that aren't gonna see each other often, but once every day you could leave gifts for them and maybe a letter? I don't remember if letter.
So, I think it's very cool that you let me have my Animal Crossing fantasy by letting me leave letters for you in here.
I'm gonna go punch trees and send you the fruit that falls off.
That's one thing that Animal Crossing does right that no one talks about. Are you down with food forests, Kari? That should be the wealthy rapper flex. How many food forests did you lay down? How many people can feed themselves and not have to worry about starving?
I wanna play dual DDR with you like Scott Pilgrim and Knives except not them but you and me.
I wanna know if you vibe hard, like do you feel good and nostalgic or euphoric? Can you feel me? If you can absorb vibes from people, you can have as much of mine as you want. I'll trade you tummies.
A vibe is like a blueprint for a world. I feel like you do vibe hard. I do feel that from you, and right! A vibe is also musical. And you're essentially as black as I am. Being autistic seems similar to being black, too. You're Hawaiian, so you tell me, does anywhere else in the world vibe like Hawaii?
I hope you can feel peaceful and good and happy when you read my letters. Or just feel safe to feel all of your actual feelings.
I think the very first tweet I saw from you attracted me because it was intellectual and vibe compatible with me.
Almost six months have passed since that evening.
I wanna get pizza and beer or whatever you drink and celebrate. Bros before pine cones. 🍻
