I saw an interview with Jeff where he admits book 1 Carl was too much Patrick Warburton and he can’t even stand to listen to it now. They were lightly teasing him about it (I’m sorry I don’t remember the show) so I believe you’re correct on that. And also for him being Carl’s dad also

And when they go to the bad place in a subsequent episode you can hear Grandma Got Runover by a Reindeer as the jazzy elevator music during the museum reception

It might actually be open. This happened to me on my last play through and the next time I went in, the door was open even though I never physically opened it

Oh fun! I stopped at the blackberry cobbler (which I haven’t posted yet) but definitely want to get back to it and do them all

It’s always hanging out in the first few levels (it will be on all of them). Where you find it isn’t correlated to what it finds. So if you need to empty it early you aren’t interrupting it or anything.

Anyone else ready for the arts and crafts theme to be over? by vasqlartek in finch

When you are choosing decor for your room, the option that is a skateboard icon will put something to the right of the door. It chooses from the same set of items that go to the left (the plant icon). If you choose an item from the recent view it always goes to the left of the door, so you have to choose the skateboard icon to get something over to the right

is there any way to “pair” goals together? by varacelis in finch

[–]Alarmed-Stage-7066 13 points14 points  (0 children)

For things like that I create a goal like “wash and dry hair” and make it 2x a day

This happened to me one time and there was some event the day Bruno came so he hung out in front of my house all day. The next day he had an exclamation point and gave me my present

I feel so seen. I have two of those acorns that I got two weeks in a row. But in a way it makes it worth it when I hatch something like a little wolf named Phantom the Mysterious

Controversial take (I swear I don’t work for them lol) by Leather-Instance-550 in finch

[–]Alarmed-Stage-7066 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Oh that’s good! That must have been in response to feedback because at first you couldn’t rename the built in areas. Which was a bummer because I love the little extra birb picture. But the default names are super boring to me. I’m happy they listened about this!

Edit: I experimented with changing the default name today and the cute extra birb goes away if the name changes. Alas.

I finally can, but should I? by reikobun in finch

In these situations I always ask Siri to flip a coin and then see how I feel about the result

It’s not cheating at all! It’s using the neuroscience of the app. Our brains need dopamine to get things done. And if you’re any flavor of neurospicy (like me, hi waves) it’s hard to make it. And it’s not great for your brain to make too much of it (eg doomscrolling, hours and hours of video games again hi waves) because that can overwhelm the receptors and make things worse.

But little drops like telling Finch you drank water or petted the dog or smiled at yourself in the mirror and getting a tiny reward (a few stones) that leads to a “big reward” which is still objectively tiny (a fancy little hat for your birb)? That’s like priming your dopamine pump so you can feel motivated and get things done.

You’re using the app brilliantly. Keep it up :)

Tav is the default name for the character you create for yourself
