Am I just old, or do all these newfangled LED headlights feel like everybody’s got their damn bright lights on? #oldmanyellsatclouds

After all these years of casually playing #StardewValley and #AnimalCrossing, having my first real garden (since 1988) seems very… familiar.

Yay! This bugs me! The overused misuse of the now buzzword term "analog" tinyurl.com/yc638d7d herrrm. I get it that most folks misusing it are just saying "not digital" but it still kinda drives me crazy. In the pictured marketing copy, "acoustic" would b more accurate.
