Usually my younger siblings wait until I’m done with work — they’re in earlier time zones than I am, so they’re being polite — then the group chat lights up: “Splat.” “Splat.” “Splat.”

In the interest of bonding, I started hanging out with them on FaceTime while we played Animal Crossing together.
