Swimming In Waves Hair | Public on June 5th, 2025

💈Just stepped out the chair with the crispiest hairline in town 😤✂️ I retextured the Lovestruck hair to give it that fresh fade energy, clean, and NATURAL. None of that blocky mess, we’re keeping it smooth where it counts. 👌🏾

When they return, a fun real-world fact appears in a popup notification that shares a piece of LGBTQ+ history connected to the event they attended. These educational tidbits highlight trailblazers, historical moments, and the ongoing importance of Pride.

Functional Modern Luxe Purse

The Sims 4 Modern Luxe Kit was done in collaboration with Sims creator Xureila. All credit goes to The Sims and Xureila, who worked so diligently to create this beautiful kit for us. Since the late 1950s, video games have been a popular American pastime. The gaming industry continues to entertain us, educate us and help shape our views of the world. That's why I am so glad to see evolution of black culture and how we as a community continue to shape The Sims franchise.

This EA mesh edit requires Modern Luxe Kit in order for it to work. Included with this add-on is added functionality to that gives us twice the functionality in one object with "The Baddie's Bag": (1) a lunch bag for quick-meals/drinks and (2) a place for Sims to store their inventory items.

As you can probably tell, I'm a bit obsessed right now with a particular series called Pose. I know I'm late to the craze. All my palm colored friends knew about the show and were practically begging me to watch back in 2021. I'll be the first to say it. Black-ish was a show made about black people for white people to watch. I thought this was one of those same situations. had this one friend who recommended me the show. I told that boy, "I live episodes of Pose everyday. I'm a 21st century autistic, queer black man in an America that is constantly trying to tear down people who look like me". I was fearful that this series was going to be another example of glamorized trauma porn media showing one-dimensional struggles of black people because honey, I already have enough to share with the WHOLE world. But truthfully it wasn't as bad as I thought. The series revolves around the HIV/AIDs crisis. Funnily enough, I've actually noticed many parallels to the BLM protests, covid-19 pandemic and the hysteria surrounding monkey pox. During the 1980s and 1990s, many queer people were kicked out of their biological parent's homes. Mostly in fear of the unknown of what HIV could bring their families. And this fear forced many kids out on the streets. The series follows the lives of a group of characters who are part of the ballroom scene, a vibrant subculture in the LGBTQ community where individuals compete in dance and runway competitions, forming "houses" that act as surrogate families. The characters faced several moments of discrimination, prejudice, and hardships but also found strength and catharsis in their chosen families and artistic expressions. I really admire how the show tackled the hardships and they really didn't sugarcoat anything. Overall, the show presents a rich tapestry of themes emphasizing the importance of self-acceptance, community and advocacy, all of which are things that a modern black queer person like myself can really resonate with. I truly saw myself in so many of the characters.
