finished reading 'middlesex' last night

i bawled my eyes out lmao and the story truly captivated my heart (mostly the pain of growing up and discovering yourself and the world around you)

ever since I watched 'the virgin suicides' when I was in high school I've been obsessed with grosse pointe and wanted to read every eugenides' book and I had no idea that's where he actually grew up

throughout the book I've also learned about the neighborhood's problematic history which I knew nothing about

reading the virgin suicides next! 📚

I am anon with pink soup that asked for help and I will absolutely try your suggestions when I get home to my computer. It really is the strangest thing as I did the 50/50 method right down to your folder and it was devastating lol. THANK YOU so much for your kind response and tips, I appreciate it. I will also try out the commenters tip about adjust fade distance, etc. Have a lovely day <3

hiii, you're welcome and I'm sorry I can't help you out more, but pink soup is still a mystery to me as well! an annoying mystery x)

hopefully something will work out for you and you'll be able to play your game in no time! <3

Hi I love your downtown neighbourhoods and wonder if you would ever share one. Many thanks

hiii, thank you so much! <3

the ones you can see in the screenshots can't really be shared 'cause in the sims 2 you have to create a clean neighborhood intentionally, without junk files and npcs and such, and I have built those downtowns throughout my gameplay, naturally, without thinking of sharing them and not even knowing if anyone would want them at the time :))

I might create one to share in the future! but I totally don't mind if you want to take inspiration from one of my neighborhoods, I have a layout of my downtown here ^^

Hey! So, first off, I absolutely love your blog, all the content you share sims 2 & 4 <3 You have a lovely aesthetic and I WANT it in my game, lol. That being said, (TS2) your buy mode CC and my game seem to hate each other. I have tried removing all CC and just leaving yours but I always get pink soup. I don't have this issue with other BB CC; my game runs A-OK with others for the most part - I'm just wondering if you have had any other reports like this and/or any tips?

hii and thank you so much! I'm really glad you enjoy my blog! ♥

I honestly have no idea why it would be related to my cc per se, I know that pink flashing is generally a texture memory issue so it has to do with all the cc you have? most of the time I converted maxis match stuff that is low poly, but most of my textures are 1024px and that is what could be causing the issue, but I guess most creators' cc has the same size textures? 🤔 maybe you could resize the textures for the sets that you really like? it's super simple, just extract them, resize to 512px and import them back. I know it sounds tedious but that is the only thing that comes to mind, I'm sorry! 😓

I've always had pink flashing issues once my downloads folder goes above 10gb but I don't think it's related to any specific piece of cc, it's just a general type of thing I guess x) and I never had any alpha cc in my game, only maxis match

played around with the tool mod 'cause this neighborhood desperately needed more trees and a cozy/homey vibe 🌳

hey, hope you’re doing well! i wanted to ask where did you get this bowie poster that’s on the snack shack

hiii ♥

the posters can be found here! ⚡️

[kestrelteens]

my ts2 game is practically unplayable ‘cause of pink flashing that started about a month ago… and I genuinely don’t want to delete any cc ‘cause I need it and it would be pointless… redoing my Downloads folder sounds like a nightmare (12gb). and I really wanted to share some cute houses for a followers milestone (thank you so much guys <3)

in conclusion: I have no idea what to do 🙃

The Snack Shack- a tiny rundown diner + gas station in moonwood mill 🌲

owned by a local family whose son is the only employee way too interested in skipping class and making mix tapes 📼

hello!! for the CAS room boho inspired replacement for the ts2 mod, I downloaded all of the cc required but I am missing the white wall on the right side! i went to go and check again but I do not see it :(

I'm sorry but that was kinda long ago, right now I have no idea what wall that could be, I guess I forgot to link it back then :S

[kestrelteens]

would you be willing to make a top dress version of the 4t2 bow dress you did a while back? i am gonna try to add a link to the post<3 this dress is everything!! post/692208104521318400/hi-friendsss-today-i-bring-you-this-adorable-bow

hiii I haven't worked on any cc in a while and I'm extremely rusty and right now don't really feel like getting back to it I'm sorry! 💗
