Like, this home is a totally bodacious 80's suburban. It's so totally tubular and your family will love living here. You'll fer sure want to grab this so your sims can be like, "Oh snap!" and "That's so rad!" every time they walk through the door.

... and she said yes!

He asked her to move in, what were you thinking the question was? ;)

Constance lived alone in her fancy downtown house, so she sold it and brought with her something like... §70,000! And just like that, we're officially swimming in it. I thought we might get to the next generation before being insanely flush with cash, but nope!

Now that we have enough money for frivolous decorative items, I added this shelf (courtesy of @aisquaredchoco) to Russet and Constance's room, and they've got a very fancy-looking ensuite bathroom. It doesn't fit the humble farmstead aesthetic I've been going for, but whatever, Constance brought §70k with to this household, so she gets to have nice things.

1700s WOMEN - PART 2

Lace as a luxury was carried over from the 17th century, used as a status simple for the wealthy to flaunt. From the mid-century on it migrated to the neck in the form of delicate chokers, which were a fashionable alternative to traditional jewelled necklaces. As hairstyles became larger hat styles became smaller until they were discarded altogether for a time, followed by extremely large hats that accommodated the curls, plaits and frizzed hair beneath.

Things about the sims 1 that make you feel like you're trapped in a post-WW2 suburban dystopia

1. The game has no days of the week. The game is, in a sense, "locked in time"

2. The sims work every day. NO HOLIDAYS.

3. The easiest way to make money and maintain relationships is to have one "breadwinner" sim and one sims who stays home. The classic 50s nuclear-family way of life.

4. Making money or friends when you live alone is quite hard. In a lot of ways, you get married in order to live an easier life.

5. You cannot quit your job, you can only be fired.

6. Children never grow up.

7. Sims never get old.

8. A tabloid is delivered to your house every day. Make sure to gossip about your neighbors!

9. The music makes you feel like you're trapped in a 50s shopping mall.

10. NPCs are not real sims. They're just lower-class automatons that live to serve the playable sims.

11. Using the toilet is so inappropriate of that your ENTIRE BODY is blurred out.

12. There is no weather or seasons. It is always sunny outside. This also contributes to the warped sense of time, and the sense that the sims are living inside of a 1950s sitcom world instead of in a real place.

I understand why people mod it, as playing it out-of-the-box is subject to all the above things and that gets old, but I definitely think it's worth playing the un-modded game for a bit first to really get the eeriness of the original game.

It's a really thoughtfully crafted game.

i might have finally made the 90s-early 2000s camera reshade i’ve always wanted 

[nempne]

𝘚𝘶𝘯𝘴𝘦𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘶𝘣𝘶𝘳𝘣𝘢𝘯 𝘋𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮

A tropical, fizzy siding fit for a backdrop to your finest lawn flamingos … or garden gnomes. Whatever floats your boat. I’m not your boss.

§3

44 swatches (that's admittedly a lot, this includes color alternates and solids)

Named/made from Growing Together's Suburban Dream siding. A simple, fun recolor for trailers or other homes, I think the darker blue would look nice on a house boat, personally.

Some swatches are pretty normal, others are just plain confusing because not all Sims have great taste.

sfs dl More photos on the home I made these for:

Just an afternoon project I really have no idea if someone's done another version of this, but I don't know, I just felt like sharing something and hopefully saving someone else some time so they don't have to make weird sidings. Also a sort of NY Resolution to stop being terrified of sharing stuff I make because they're small things and I'm still learning.

also, check out these outtakes from mother and son who autonomously did a keg stand at 7:34 in the morning:

Hello everyone! I hope you are all doing well! I have a special gift for each of you this month. First of all, I would like to express my deepest gratitude for all the support and love I receive from you while creating mods for The Sims 3. 

Every comment, download, and positive feedback motivates me to keep innovating and sharing my work with this amazing community. 

To thank you for all this support, I am delighted to share an exclusive and special world with you. I know some of you are very curious and interested in my tiny worlds, and I understand that not everyone has the chance to play in them. That's why I spent the last 35 days working live on this tiny world, which was created together with my YouTube community. Pleasantville, intended to be a spiritual successor to Pleasantview (in the sense of recreating that suburban and small community atmosphere), features 30 lots and many stunning buildings.

Although these buildings are empty, they are an open invitation for each of you to add your personal touch and creativity, transforming this world into something even more extraordinary. If you don't feel confident doing this, I recommend keeping an eye on CJ Plays' channel, as he will be sharing a series of videos while he builds and gives Pleasantville his own unlimited creative vision!

I hope you enjoy and have fun exploring and customizing every corner of this world. It's a small gesture to show my gratitude and give back all the love I receive.

Thank you for being part of this journey and for all the continuous support. I can't wait to see what you create!

With love, Boring Bones <3

DOWNLOAD

Recommendations: To achieve the same vision, I recommend using version V2 of my Ts3 Beta Lighting Mod. The mods used are available with the download, and there is a CUSTOM version of my Get Out mod for Tiny Worlds. This way, if you love using Get Out, it will ensure that your Sims don't just walk on foot in this small world.

As a token of my appreciation, I'm sharing a small gift that will be posted in two parts. This will be my first one and it's a set of small starter homes.

For new visitors, welcome and feel free to browse my Tumblr by checking out the pinned post for easier navigation. To everyone, I would appreciate your continued support through likes, reblogs, downloads and follows which are always welcomed!

House Features:

Unfortunately, they will have sparse furnishings due to the limited budget of §16,500 but there is enough space to redecorate once the money starts to come in for the family. All of them are suitable for a single Sim or a couple who want a fresh start in a new town or want to start a family, complete with basic furniture and appliances.

One of the houses contains a small laundry area with just a washer and clothes dryer outside, as well as parking for one car. The second house does have a garage but it lacks the Car-Spot Parking Space due to budget constraints. The third house doesn't have a garage or a laundry room, but it is suitable for four Sims.

I'll be sharing the second small gift with you shortly, likely just a few minutes after this post. Stay tuned!

📣 All my content lots are in the form of package files (.package). Kindly place the .package file into the following folder: Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Library\ .You should find it in your Library bin in the game when you navigate to Edit Town.

suburban gothic;

inspiré par twin peaks, desperate housewives, six feet under, hereditary, welcome to nightvale, euphoria, totally fucked up, american beauty, pretty little liars, murder she wrote, east of eden.

Par où commencer pour présenter ce monde? Pas de contexte déjà rédigé pour le moment, l’idée n’est que latente; si les rues ne se remplissent pas, à quoi bon y bâtir des maisons? Mais l’idée se fait pesante, lourde de ses possibilités.

Pennsylvanie, au pied des Appalaches, la rouille industrielle qui se bat contre la nature sauvage, elle-même lacérée par le tracé méticuleux de l’asphalte. Le long de l’une des ces longues routes, une ville. Une parmi tant d’autres, des milliers comme elle. Plantée sur une grille qui structure l’espace; au centre-ville et à ses bâtiments denses succède l’harmonie de la banlieue résidentielle. L’ordre s’y confond avec la monotonie, le charme se dilue dans l’ennui. L’architecture humaine se révèle creuse, les fissures laissent s’en échapper les échos de complaintes qu’on aurait voulu recouvrir de béton, de gazon ou de peinture fraîche. L’horreur s’excite avec chaque désillusion, secret, péché, danger, crime, frustrations. Le futur est riche en promesses mais demain n’est jamais un autre jour, inéluctable répétition d’hier. On enterre ses rêves sous un lit de bégonias dont on prend soin avec fureur et hystérie, dans l’énergie du désespoir, jusqu’au jour où une bande d’adolescents les piétine pour s'amuser.

La ville est séparée en quartiers; #1 est un petit centre-ville, le lieu des rencontres fortuites, main street, le cœur administratif et commercial du lieu. #2 est un ancien village rattaché à la ville, avec ses rues pittoresques, ses habitants qui n’aiment pas les visiteurs, le calme acheté à prix fort, les fermes reconverties. #3 est l’ancien bassin minier, abandonné, peuplé de mythes et de terreurs, peu à peu remplacé par l’industrie forestière. #4 est la banlieue résidentielle, le théâtre principal de notre jeu de dupes.

L’horreur vient de l’intérieur; du plus vaste, l’intérieur des frontières nationales, au plus intime: le foyer et l’individu. L’extérieur projette: un pays puissant et prospère, des rues propres, un voisinage aimable, des bonnes manières et de jolies choses. Le tout tient du mirage. À l’intérieur, rien ne va, on est à deux doigts de tomber dans le ravin. Les valeurs fières et heureuses sont corrompues; la communauté devient une prison, la religion devient une manipulation, le politique s’achète, la propriété creuse les dettes, le couple se brise.

Tout ne va pas mal; même si le gothique est souvent très sombre, il y existe aussi une place pour d’autres histoires. Edward Scissorhands est LE film du suburban gothic et c’est loin d’être un film d’horreur. Twin Peaks et True Blood mélangent un ton mystérieux avec des moments plus légers. L’excentricité ou la bizarrerie des personnages est d’ailleurs souvent un symptôme des rouages sombres qui font tourner l’histoire. Les tags associés au gothique sur Tumblr mènent à des contenus sinistres, mais chacun.e est libre d’aller un peu plus loin. À titre personnel par exemple, je pense que les Sims 2 est un jeu à l’ambiance gothique (: On fait ce qu’on veut avec le concept de gothique, et ce sera pareil sur le forum si le projet séduit et intéresse. (si besoin, je peux rédiger un texte un peu plus élaboré sur l'american gothic et ses déclinaisons régionales/thématiques)

Les années 2010; LA décennie des différentes gothic aesthetics. L’une des pires crises financières de l’histoire est passée par là et a fait beaucoup de mal au rêve américain. Le traumatisme est bien là, encore aujourd’hui, chez les individus comme dans les sociétés dans lesquelles ils évoluent. Le paysage de certaines régions change durablement; dans le Midwest, dans le sud, dans la Rust Belt. Une nouvelle tâche sur la mystique de l’Amérique. The American Nightmare.

J’ai beaucoup écrit et si vous avez lu jusque là – merci vraiment, et euh, pardon. C’est avant tout une bouteille à la mer, ce post. S’il trouve sa destination, alors on en fera germer les prémices. Il y a de quoi faire je pense. Les remarques, questions, suggestions, toutes bienvenues, j'ai envie de lire un peu après avoir autant écrit.

Contenu additionel; sera posté s'il y a de l'intérêt – le contexte, évidemment – mécanismes de jeu, animations – les postes vacants, leurs dynamiques – la ville, son monde, son histoire – les racines, l'inspiration – aes

un dernier mot: le tumblr n'est pas encore complètement fonctionnel, la plupart des liens est sous construction.
