I was teaching kids today and they got fixated on the usual ‘are they dead now?’ question when I was talking about historical figures. So I was just like ‘Yes, they’re dead now, everyone who was alive in the 1800s is dead now.’ and then one kid was like ‘Except for you’.

in the interest of nostalgia, here are some mods i've found to restore old game behavior that was removed or changed by updates.

mean interactions for any age - removed in OFB. anyone else remember booting up the game and seeing lilith duke it out with her parents?

kill visiting playables - self-explanatory. removed in seasons.

fewer hobby wants - to keep FT wants from cannibalizing the older wants.

no pet obsession - same as above, but for pets wants.

no shade eyes salute - removes the salute added in M&G.

let me know if there are any i've missed!

I've read people saying that autistic people should be full on sterilized! I'm honestly worried with autism being more and more demonized in the States!

i have a lot of things i should really be doing which did NOT include making a bunch of recolors of one of my fave cc items so really this is the perfect time to make a bunch of recolors of one of my fave cc items :^) n what i chose to do was bienchen83's animated lizards & rodents cages!

i shall talk more about it n provide links under the cut!

so i loveeee these lizards n rodents sm !! i don't even use the lil womrat cage that comes with the pets expansion tbh ,, which is ironic bc i DO have recolors of that, n i couldnt find more recolors anywhere so i decided i shall make some! (there is a womrat cage in the set tho! i believe there's also a default replacement there too but also a custom version).

i used a few palettes: lack colors from michelle, luasims colors, ricardo colors from icad, n yeti colors from shastakiss (i didn't do whites or like the dark blacks--there's a white recolor provided but i just mashed the original white wood recolor together with the original white cage recolor if that makes sense, n there's already a dark black wood recolor available in the original download). i wanted to do anna colors too but i didn't use color actions (cries all over firealpaca) n got burnt out flipping between the blending modes n seeing the colors not being close enough for me to settle. maybe for the best bc...

all together there are ,, like 104 recolors bc leave it to me to get too carried away with something, i didn't realize i made that many until i was done lmaoo. they're separated into folders with the white recolor just chillin outside of them so you can just choose for yourself if you'd like! there's also pics of the color palettes included since i don't have any more spoons to get a full swatch on the mesh, n all files are named after both the palette n the color!

the meshes are NOT included, but the link to everything you need is right here on modthesims!! the master mesh is the squirrel cage so all the rest of the pet cages will pull these colors too :^)

i hope im not forgetting anything i'm tired n recovering from being sick i feel like everyone's getting sick in maryland. everyone please take care! n lmk if there's anything wrong!

River Brooks for @bakedpecans Wishing for Winona

Traits: Cringe - Evil - Party Animal River Brooks, 25 y.o. your local aspiring tattoo and piercing shop owner. He spent most of his childhood on the streets, painting the town murals and also hanging out with his friends. To be fair, River never actually stayed at home, his parents just gave all the freedom - "Do what u want River, just stop being annoying". He just took his backpack and travelled around a lot, from one city to another. River eventually returned to his hometown, Windenburg, and got a tattoo gun, and started to ink his friends at first. Now he has a small local shop. River would love to ink Winona if they wouldn't mind, yeah! :) Random facts: - Dyed his hair green himself when he was a teenager - Can't live without a coffee with a cigarette - Used to be in a garage band - Has a snake pet "Noodles" - Whistles a lot - Gives a free tattoo for a birthday - His parents still don't understand their son - Uses the same playlist while making tattoos - Likes to chill after work at shop with no lights and music - Likes the rainy days and thunderstorm, it's refreshing - Thinks he would a great parent (aspiration) More for Winona to find out! :)

working on early horses, i wanted to do a quick sketch to show how small Eohippus was compared to an extant horse (this one is about 150cm tall). as you can see, it wasn't big at all. a perfect little lap horse :)

Stocking Stuffer 5/5: 2 Functional AC:NH Conversions for Toddlers

You've reached the toe of the stocking!

The lovely @decat2 converted a bunch of beloved objects from Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and I thought a couple of them might make cute toddler toys.

First up is the "unfinished puzzle", which now functions as a logic toy. Toddlers will still use the shape puzzle blocks with it but I thought it looked kind of cute so I left it. It comes with the 6 original Animal Crossing textures Decat converted as well as some new recolours you see here; a clipart painted cottage, this sweet ACNH screencap by user aforestlife, these flowers by Ellen Crimi-Trent, this pastoral scene by Leon Devenice, this adorable kitten painting by Lucía Verdejo, and then three of my old Freezer Bunny calendar pics.

And second, we have the bird pool ring, cloned from Rebecah's pool tubes. Toddlers can be placed in the floatation ring and will splash around while the ring is animated. Comes with all 6 original Animal Crossing recolours converted by Decat.

I hope you enjoyed this mini gift event and have/will continue to have a lovely holiday period!

summoning the magician for help with the motel, got ms. crumplebottom instead. 😬

also tried my hand at a sims 2 ui-style tarot card. a little hodge-podge, but i felt like it was worth sharing.
