@Yoshi89 beat me to it.

@Yoshi89 You win the internet for the day. Both for the quote and for a very rare beating @Antagonist to the punch!

I have a really expensive idea in animal crossing...

Well, I already have the toga. I can probably save up to buy the crown. My house is almost fully upgraded... but the problem is there are animal homes all over the archipelago. Meaning some are on the same land as yours truly. And they’re unworthy.
So how about I move all the other houses and businesses to the smaller less impressive islands and destroy the bridges so nobody can bother me?
then I can proceed with plan B...

Comet Hale-Bopp last visited us in 1997. It's believed to be a long period comet. Its current apoapsis (farthest point from the sun) is around 370 AU (370 times the Earth-Sun distance). This means that, while it was spectacular on its last visit (regarded as a "Great Comet") we will regrettably not see it again in our lifetimes. Its orbital period was on the order of 4000+ years. On its second to last visit in BC 2215, it probably had a near collision with Jupiter (in June of that year) before it made periapsis in July. This near collision considerably shortened its orbital period from over 4000 years to 2500 or so. I don't know for sure if you saw it when it was here in the 90's or in BC 2215 Taco. So I went into Space Engine and got you a few pictures from it:
This is the Sun from Hale Bopp in the distant future- C. AD 4530. You can see a bluish hue forming because it's gotten close enough to the sun to begin activating.
This is it from the outside. Not terribly spectacular yet.
We see the two tails forming on the comet here and the nucleus is brilliant. I can also see Earth in the picture too!
Finally, here's what it would look like from the Earth itself in that year!
I'm sorry I couldn't do better in terms of gift ideas for you. But I wanted to do SOMETHING at least! Happy birthday my friend. I hope it is as wonderful a day as it can be for you!

Lunar eclipses are somewhat more common thankfully. Solar eclipses are tough. I never saw one in person.
we had one one day when I was 5 but my mom told me to not look up that day because I would go blind. Thanks mom.
There is one comet that is extremely long period. Called Comet West. It’s apoapsis is around 70,000 AU! (1.1 light years). The orbital period is estimated to be upwards of 558,000 years. At those distances it’s not guaranteed the comet will ever return. Passing stars and the galactic tide can perturb the orbit and either send it headlong into the solar system, or tumbling away from it.

@Dank Pony Child You always manage to get me laughing!! Nice one.

As selfish as it might sound, I really hope this is done with soon. I want to kayak this summer.

Doctors: There’s a threat but all you have to do is keep social distancing.My family: *wanders outside to visit everyone closely*

Yes free education and free health, but you can go to private school if you want ! But private hospitals must also follow the rules and you'll be refund by the "social security" ...well it's a complicated system but I never pay for the hospital, blood test, choreography, surgery and all this, I paid like...10% of the real price, everything is covered by the social security
I mean...It's complicated

All I know is this:
When I was a child I had to go to the ER with a large cut on my head. They treated me in 2 hours or less.
In 2008 I cut my hand open because I do not possess intelligence. Needed stitches. In and out in an hour but it sure didn’t tickle.
2011 I had to go to the ER for chest pains. Because it was chest related I didn’t wait in the waiting room for 4 hours. I went straight to the front of the line. And they got me in a room and then I was waiting for about 6 hours after that before finally being seen. I was there for 11 hours by the end of it.
But I WAS allowed to bring a DVD player so I had that going for me which is nice!

Hope you'll be okay! Stay smart but also paid if possible in these super bad times! ♡
@Bastian I'm an anarchist so we're like cousins! If anyone gives you trouble I'll give them a stern disapproval!

So bad news. My coworker has tested positive. She is asymptomatic but was at work the last few days and the results came in today. No word yet on if we are closing the branch for quarantine.
They are “deep cleaning” the branch tonight. The cleaners are shit at their jobs though and will probably just half ass it again.

@Samurai Equine I am doing the best I can. But I made a promise to myself that if I get this thing, I’m going to make its existence within me a living hell. There’s a motto I try to live by: What doesn’t kill me had better start running.

How am I evil? Is it because I imprison people in the sims and Animal Crossing? Because I intentionally lure massive hordes of zombies to random settlements In State of Decay? Because I make people drink sewage in cities skylines? Where did I go wrong?
I can be a good sometimes! Like that time I, uhh... you know. When I... I uhh... remember that time I...
...hmm.
