Wait, the interior of this is so cute. I had forgotten I had finished it. 🤣 Too bad I don't really use CC anymore. #thesims4

I think I'm going to take this WIP I never finished and try to adapt it for Gibi Point... It's got a lot of CC, but I think I don't need most of it anymore. We'll see how it goes. #sims4adventureawaits

I think it was a custom menu background unfortunately. 🥺

I'm getting that defocused menu screen bug again and I can't figure out what mod is causing it?

TOOL, BetterBuildBuy and MCCC are up to date and I don't really use anything else.

I dunno, maybe I have been married too long but I can't imagine earnestly singing that about a man.

And compared to So Long, London, The Black Dog, You're on your own kid, tolerate it, etc? Not even close for me.

It is one of the better tracks on the album but that's not saying much.

I cannot emphasize enough how low my hopes were for this album and it still managed to disappoint me.

I kind of like CANCELLED! but I can’t decide if I’m just desperate at this point.

I never thought I would miss Jack Antonoff.

Taylor may have found true love or whatever with Travis Kelce, but that man sucks as a muse. #thelifeofashowgirl

I will keep playing, but I’m little unsure about continuing to make content.

My sincere hope is that they sell off Maxis and someone buys it who actually cares about The Sims, but it feels like a long shot. 🥺

Age yourself with a film you saw in the cinema as a kid.

Jesus Christ, I don’t know how we managed to end up with The Sims owned by a company worse than EA.

Really hoping that Paralives can pull off a miracle in December.

Honestly, every time I start building something in Planet Coaster (or Planet Zoo) I give thanks for how easy it is to build in The Sims 4.

Is The Sims more limited in what you can build? Sure, kind of, but maaaan building is so slow in Planet Coaster.

Sometimes you set out to make a sim and they don't remotely resemble the vibe you headed into CAS with.

Did you get the Sorcery DLC? 👀 I’ve been really tempted.

Good morning! Today is an update day for the Sims 4, friendly reminder to:

1. Back up your saves

2. Either go offline until mods are updated or remove your mods

And most importantly, not harass modders about when they’re going to update. Happy update everyone!

Usual disclaimer that I love the Sims 4, but I just hate this constant feeling of being exploited for my love of the Sims.

I wish we had something like that for the Sims. We were also promised refreshes, plural and they only ever did Spa Day while they are recycling old ideas and not fixing bugs in previous packs.

Because bug fixing doesn't make them those sweet, sweet EP dollars 😭 Paradox is pretty much as bad as EA in a lot of ways, but I feel like they are at least good at going back and bringing their older content up to par, like with the Stellaris custodians program.

Yeah, it's probably a matter of trying to appeal to everyone and not just family gameplay simmers. It actually is pretty tied to the new EP, which has a lot of fitness stuff and I'm guessing the magnets are to evoke travel. I mean the EP itself is a little all over the place.

C'mon, don't you know kids love throw pillows? 🤣

Actually, I think I can see myself using that fitness top a fair bit.

These are always hit and miss. I'm excited about the magnets - wish we could use them on fridges though. (I'm assuming they're going to be stuck to that board.)

New throw pillows is a win and I think the PJs are cute, too. Pretty meh on the rest myself.
