Unfortunately my original werewolf Mcsm save file is most likely corrupted. I have attempted to save my progress multiple times but I haven't been able to. It freaks out if I have it loaded longer than a few minutes, less if I try to build. Nothing has worked, no matter what I tried. I have been able to remove some broken mods which seems to have solved the problem, but I am no longer have interest in that save file because of the problems it has. I am very sorry for delaying the storyline and constantly changing the lot builds but I'm gonna have to again

Fortunately, I got the City living expansion and the Strangerville pack today, and I think I have a better idea for how the story starts. it might also be fun to incorporate the graffiti crew au into the storyline.

Nope now it’s at the point that i’m shocked that people off tt don’t know what’s going down. I have no reach but i’ll sum it up anyway.

SCOTUS is hearing on the constitutionality of the ban as tiktok and creators are arguing that it is a violation of our first amendment rights to free speech, freedom of the press and freedom to assemble.

SCOTUS: tiktok bad, big security concern because china bad!

Tiktok lawyers: if china is such a concern why are you singling us out? Why not SHEIN or temu which collect far more information and are less transparent with their users?

SCOTUS (out loud): well you see we don’t like how users are communicating with each other, it’s making them more anti-american and china could disseminate pro china propaganda (get it? They literally said they do not like how we Speak or how we Assemble. Independent journalists reach their audience on tt meaning they have Press they want to suppress)

Tiktok users: this is fucking bullshit i don’t want to lose this community what should we do? We don’t want to go to meta or x because they both lobbied congress to ban tiktok (free market capitalism amirite? Paying off your local congressmen to suppress the competition is totally what the free market is about) but nothing else is like TikTok

A few users: what about xiaohongshu? It’s the Chinese version of tiktok (not quite, douyin is the chinese tiktok but it’s primarily for younger users so xiaohongshu was chosen)

16 hours later:

Tiktok as a community has chosen to collectively migrate TO a chinese owned app that is purely in Chinese out of utter spite and contempt for meta/x and the gov that is backing them.

My fyp is a mix of “i would rather mail memes to my friends than ever return to instagram reels” and “i will xerox my data to xi jinping myself i do not care i share my ss# with 5 other people anyway” and “im just getting ready for my day with my chinese made coffee maker and my Chinese made blowdryer and my chinese made clothing and listening to a podcast on my chinese made phone and get in my car running on chinese manufactured microchips but logging into a chinese social media? Too much for our gov!” etc.

So the government was scared that tiktok was creating a sense of class consciousness and tried to kill it but by doing so they sent us all to xiaohongshu. And now? Oh it’s adorable seeing this gov-manufactured divide be crossed in such a way.

This is adorable and so not what they were expecting. Im sure they were expecting a reluctant return to reels and shorts to fill the void but tiktokers said fuck that, we will forge connections across the world. Who you tell me is my enemy i will make my friend. That’s pretty damn cool.

some thoughts that are probably petty and silly (and not exactly self ship related, but more about the source material(s) for one of my f/os) but that have been on my mind a while:

I really miss the old ego stuff. I know time moves on and things are different, we've all grown up more and gotten older and circumstances have changed. The pandemic fucked up a lot of things. Creative projects evolve over time to expand and experiment and improve, or they get scrapped and reworked or rewritten. I get it. but I still miss stuff like the cryptic clues and teases and small glitches and glimpses of what was to come. that period between 2016-2018 when the ego stuff was most prominent was such a fun, cozy time for me and I wish the ego stuff could still be like that. I understand why it can't be like that anymore, why it has had to change and evolve, why S.ean is pulling away from YT in general to move towards bigger and better projects and opportunities. I understand that we've all grown older and changed between 2018 and now, especially after the pandemic. but it makes me sad that things aren't the same anymore.

At many points during the hiatus (if that's the right word for the gap in this case), between 2019 and early 2022, I genuinely thought all the ego stuff had been scrapped and abandoned. Especially in the midst of a quarantine when we were all struggling mentally, I thought maybe the spark had died and S.ean just didn't feel like making ego stuff anymore, so he would just...stop, and that would be it. Or I figured he was probably looking towards bigger and better things, and I held my breath waiting for him to say that he wasn't coming back to YouTube because he found better stuff to work on elsewhere. Not that I could blame him if that was the case (and I mean. I already know things are shifting in that direction), but at the time, I would have been crushed to see him go. The mere thought of never seeing A.nti again in official stuff was devastating to me.

I love the concept of the IR.IS project and the way the lore and characters are slowly getting fleshed out. "An.omaly Found" and all the community hype and chatter about it made it feel like old times. Just knowing that the egos weren't abandoned helped quell some of my anxiety, and I was once again content to wait for more updates. But I admittedly feel a bit conflicted about future ego stuff being split into different formats across different platforms/media. Like right now, they've just started releasing comics that tie into the over-arching lore and focus on different characters. Admittedly, I haven't looked into it much or ordered any of the current issues because...I'm kinda not interested? I don't know if they would really hit the same as the videos. It also makes me a tiny bit worried that if canon, plot-relevant ego stuff gets split up across a bunch of different formats and platforms, in order to get the full story and understand what's going on, we would have to keep up with all the different releases and the timeline and pay to buy or to access each thing. we'd basically get paywalled out of the full story/experience, or at the very least, it might get confusing to try and keep up with.

and that's probably not fair to say because I know YouTube is fucking abysmal for creators trying to make money off their work. Ad restrictions, copyright claims, demonetization, all of which are absurdly easy to get hit with no matter how hard you try to avoid it etc. etc. And I know S.ean puts a lot of heart and effort into what he does. He wants to do it and do it well, and stuff like IR.IS and An.omaly Found ain't cheap to make. Dude's gotta make money somehow. He's gotta pay for production and pay the crew/actors/editors/artists/etc. he hires and he has to pay his own bills. We've been spoiled for a long time, getting a bunch of ego stuff on YouTube for free over the years. And I don't think he'll completely stop posting ego stuff to YT once it's ready to be shared (at least not in the immediate future...I hope), but I know logically it makes sense to want to branch out into different creative avenues and try new things and ultimately, the price of a comic book is a small one to pay for cool new content from a project you like and helping to support the creator and the writers/artists at the same time.

idk, my little gremlin brain always dislikes change anyway, especially with stuff I like. I guess I just worry that this will be like. A New Thing and it will lose the heart and core of what made it special. Which is honestly pretty unlikely, since (to my knowledge) S.ean is definitely still very involved in everything and working on writing a lot of it...idk. many thoughts head full
