    Has anyone ever noticed that Dodo Airlines doesn’t charge for flights? That doesn’t sound like a very profitable business. I’ve decided they’re probably drug runners.
    Or they’re bringing in supplies for the stores. But that’s not amusing so we’ll ignore that explanation.

    The world of Animal Crossing is actually one of post-scarcity, post-capitalist anarchism. Which is why Tom Nook, full of romance for some distant capitalist past, relocates to a completely deserted island to create a his own, private society where money still kind of but not really matters. The Label sister only charge 'money' - which is stuff that literally grows on trees - to humour Nook. Meanwhile, Leif, Kicks, and Redd, treat their visits to the island the way we might treat a Renn Faire, or a LARP.

    And that's why the dodos don't charge for their plane flights.

    The drugs still have to be coming from somewhere. Pascal has to be constantly baked. After all, he’s always asking for food and spouting pseudo-intellectual nuggets of BS.

    I figured Pascal got them from Harv

    Looks like you can get a different bopper from Isabelle when you visit another island. I’ve got the heart and flower boppers now

    We won’t be able to check out the fireworks until 9:00ish our time. Is there anything specific to the start time of 7pm that we should time travel back for, or are the fireworks continuous all night?

    I wonder if it corresponds to your fruit. I have a star bopper and apples.

    I’m cherry/heart. The friend I visited is also, and he got heart. But I got flower when I visited his island.

    Bad move Nintendo: In local multi-player, the non-leader player(s) can’t hold balloons, sparklers, etc.

    Boo, I say. BOO.

    That's lame.

    I discovered while on Toxic's island that you can't drop a fountain firework on someone else's island (unless they're a best friend). My pocket was about half full of them.

    Sorry I didn't join any of the parties last night. I got distracted with other stuff.
    I did manage to grab a bunch of stuff from Redd, including 2 red balloons. I only need 97 more....

    I did a dream upload during the fireworks. Can I trouble someone to check out if that dream instance includes them?

    No fireworks in the dream. :( Thanks for trying that, though! If it had worked, it would have been really cool. ^_^

    The Bowser, Zelda, and Avengers really stood out to me. All of them look great, those three are just so crisp.
