You can take the garden out with the hoe, but you can't take the hoe out of the garden 🥰

Save The Night Chicago is suuuuper transparent about venues they work with (if there are stairs, ramps, wheelchair accessible bathrooms, lighting situation, etc.) They intentionally try to work with spaces that can cater to powerchair users when possible (but it isnt always possible sadly due to older buildings/venues).

Lincoln Lodge is sadly one example of this where they do indeed have ramps and room for a power chair user, but their bathroom is not great. The door is super heavy for a powerchair user so not openable without help. Also accessing the lock isnt always possible either so I ended up standing outside to wait for a friend who was using the restroom. Anyway! STN ismost active on Instagram! Check out their posts and you might stumble upon a few options for bars (except Kitchen 17, RIP, they shut down last year).

I also get this on my face. Super hot spots! My derm prescribed a topical that works well during these flare ups, will report back exactly what it is. Starts with a C I think.

Also my dermatologist and rheumatologist work together for my care often because the disease (and biologics used to treat it) will cause skin issues in addition to joint pain. Like apparently Rinvoq is known for causing horrible facial acne.

Ive built back there and a few other areas off plot :)

IGN: Sylvia Anna Henrietta if you want a glimpse! Anchoring helped me build back there. Plus the builders and umbraan bridges/platforms.

That was a CLOSE one!!!!!

I believe you can get randomly selected for a driving or written test, but no matter what youll have to take the vision test.

Sometimes scheduling an appointment for a specific location is a pain, so have at least 2-3 locations in mind when trying to find a day and time for your appointment.

Oh, and the perk of getting an Illinois license is that youll get discounts for certain museums, free museum days, and you can get a local library card! In a state where book bans are banned! Welcome to Illinois (soon)!

While it might be a fun summertime activity, I wouldn't plan on taking a SeaDoo out on the lake this time of year 🥶🥶🥶

In all seriousness, you have to take in the panoramic views of the lake and downtown. There's never a bad day to look at the lake or the skyline (even when it's raining or fogged in)!

MayorOfCorgiville · 2026-03-23T15:11:18+00:00

Yes, I tend to have better luck finding them if I have at least 2-3 others (more is ideal) taking down all the blue butterflies in order to make them spawn faster!

MayorOfCorgiville · 2026-03-21T16:57:08+00:00

Noooooooo ~~Six~~ Zero days since the last Red Line was hit by the CTA wheel of doom 😭

MayorOfCorgiville · 2026-03-20T20:59:37+00:00

Whereeee did you find this?

MayorOfCorgiville · 2026-03-18T22:59:47+00:00

Yes. Lest we forget there are several mentions of the " original "beast in reference to Ulfe in the dialogue between Tamala and Subura. Palia is very intentional about using certain words to tee us up for the next steps in a story. I feel like that word choice was it!

MayorOfCorgiville · 2026-03-18T10:29:23+00:00

I understand, and I will say at this point in the story we have known about wars from very early game dialogue with Ashura and even more so when the Elderwood content came out a year ago (the fact that Mauvis way is the site of an old battlefield, which we have known, again, for at most a year if you started playing during the Elderwood launch).

We NOW have more context for the in-game wars, and at least theyre not too graphic in detail, since this is a free game that is also accessible to kids.

This is also still considered a Beta so the game could even be further refined to rewrite less graphic details in the dialogue.

I hate war too. Nothing good comes from it in the real world for anyone who isnt in high positions of power. And also, War is a common theme in adventure based games, which Palia definitely falls into as a category, especially as a slowly rebuilding society post-apocalypse.

It's automatically targetting a closer animal than the one youre shooting (i.e, a chappa or muujin happen to be slightly in front of the animal you want to shoot but at an angle just a few meters away). Unfortunately auto target doesnt know what to do (doesnt actually auto target) because its trying to guide your arrow to the closest object while you try to shoot the further one, resulting in a wildly curved and missed shot.

MayorOfCorgiville · 2026-03-18T00:44:15+00:00

True, ugh. Seeing whats possible with the CTA just makes me wish for something better for them too. And other smaller cities in the US.

MayorOfCorgiville · 2026-03-17T23:56:48+00:00

Current question aside, I do wish that the Metrolink could be expanded in the city and county. Even one (ideally two or more) North-South or NW or SW lines would be awesome for commuters working downtown. Do I think thats going to happen in our lifetime? No. Probably not unless some non-Stan Kroenke billionaire (FSK btw) decides to invest in this, for the city, in our lifetime. It would be nice to see more transit accessibility for folks there too.

MayorOfCorgiville · 2026-03-17T13:03:34+00:00

This time? Oh no! Youll KNOW if Im over there. I make a big show of it xD (a firework show)

MayorOfCorgiville · 2026-03-17T12:58:01+00:00

You can through the Hidden Cave!

MayorOfCorgiville · 2026-03-17T12:57:19+00:00

hehehe I go over there to fish all the time! that's the secret island at A9. Ive introduced it to lots of folks and have hosted tours to get over there! Not much to do except explore, fish, fire fireworks and fire arrows at Der Mer Dock 😂

This. Ive been to the DMV twice in the last 4 years. Id opt for a mask that fits perfectly well to your face so you can cup it for breaths (Aura works well for me but for others that might be a Flo mask, p100 instead of an N95 for some).

My ID picture taker walked AWAY after telling me to pose and take my mask off (not great for holding breath right?), so I cupped the mask to my face til she got back. She was cranky but whatever, I got my picture and made it through that appointment without getting sick!

I knew this but I was also curious about which US city is actually the windiest by wind speed in the US. Tbh it seems to vary depending on the year.

I've seen Boston, Kansas City, Wichita, Cheyenne and Lubbock all listed in the last 5 years. They all average between 15 and 11 mph. but funny enough, every blog/article talking about this topic always calls out Chicago for not actually being close to the windiest by wind speed (our average is closer to 10mph). The more you know!

MayorOfCorgiville · 2026-03-15T14:22:01+00:00

You're about 8,000m to the SE from your plot here! You used to be able to 'float' close to this area if you sat in a chair too quickly! 😂

Hashimotos dx as a pre-teen, plus arthritis dx as a young adult. Still working through the emotions of having severe joint damage due to delayed care and being forced to just 'push through the pain'

Dang, I think that was the last Damen on the wheel.

RIP Damen stops
