Like I wrote earlier, I’m really enjoying the exploration elements of Tears of the Kingdom, but the writing could use some work. I’m going to take a break from the story and go back down into The Depths. I might even start exploring some sky islands.

The Garbage Keeps the Rent Down

A friend recently told me that her parents are visiting Philadelphia as tourists, and she asked me what they should do here. I honestly couldn’t tell her. This city is made of garbage, and there’s not much to see. It’s a great place to live, though. I get the feeling that Philadelphia is one of the only American cities where it’s still affordable to go out to eat, and it’s nice to be able to walk into a grocery store, pay $20, and leave with a backpack full of fish and vegetables and mushrooms like it’s Breath of the Wild.

Seriously though, probably what I’m going to recommend are the Magic Gardens on South Street. Taking literal garbage and turning it into a unique and beautiful lived environment seems to be what this city does best.
