We actually have more control over what our Miis do and who they become friends with. It’s awesome because we can really shape their lives and see how things play out!
As we bid adieu to January 2026, a rather sobering thought has settled over many a crypto enthusiast: Bitcoin’s once-glorious narrative is crumbling faster than a cookie in a black hole.
