AOC Joins Nintendo's 'Animal Crossing'
- 4 years ago
According to Business Insider, "Animal Crossing: New Horizons" is the new thing! Everyone is playing the hit Nintendo game— even Congress.
Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the most recent join, with millions of people playing it while sheltering in place during COVID-19.
And while playing, AOC is making what she dubbed "House calls" — a nod to her job in the US House of Representatives.
This included playing with a family of three on Thursday night. They exchanged virtual fruit, took pictures and she signed a note through touch screen.
She also opened her Twitter DMs, which she says is rare.
"Honestly never in my life did I think opening my DMs would grant me faith in humanity."
She continued, "But the brief window actually resulted in a lot of these messages being very wholesome. People are asking for surprise visits to their spouse's islands!! This is the love everyone deserves."
