Asobi - Part 1

Hi Simmers!

We are starting the month with our brand new collection: Asobi! The name means "pastimes" or "leisure time" in Japanese. This time, our collection is all about a trip back to childhood with analogcore gaming, old-school Sega gaming consoles, and lots of game cartridges.

We’re kicking things off with a small gaming nook with plenty of clutter and details for that messy, lived in look. We also feature an old-school game console inspired by the Sega Genesis. For this special piece, we have both a brand-new version and an old, rusty version covered in stickers.

UPDATE: We've just added a fully functional, playable version for the game console!! With all the swatches as the decor versions. Hope you guys like it!

Asobi - Part 3

We’re back with a brand new set!

It’s perfect for adding that realistic, cluttered vibe to your sims room.

To top it all off, we’ve included a lava lamp as an accent piece to add that moody atmosphere. 🫧💡

Im going to hold your hand when I say this. It is not realistic to expect yourself or your family to be able to survive solely off of food you have foraged or grown in a garden. People with more knowledge and experience have tried and failed. What do you think happened to all of those communes in the 60s? Most of them failed. Famine and malnutrition have been constant companions to humanity until industrialized farming and food supply lines came along.

It feels like a uniquely American capitalist take to assume these traditions will make you completely self sufficient. You need a lot of people, a lot of time, a lot of knowledge across a lot of subjects, and a lot of luck to provide for everyone's nutritional needs.

So should you even bother trying to be more self sufficient with your food? I argue yes. Foraging and gardening are fun and will teach you so much about many things. They are deeply rewarding activities that can supplement your diet. There are herbs I haven't bought in years because I grow my own. There are dishes I can only make with foraged ingredients because I can't get them in stores.

You may not have the power to do everything, but that doesn't mean your efforts are wasted. Getting 5% of your nutritional needs from food you have grown or foraged, even for a season, is a massive accomplishment.

[rosstmcd]

It takes approximately 2,000 calories a day to fuel the average human. A family of four needs roughly three million calories in a year. You're not going to get that from a backyard truck garden and a couple of chickens.

But you can get variety, flavor, and vitamins even if the bulk of your calories are coming from somewhere else. And if you grow more of something than you need, it gives you something to trade or gift to other people.

[bitchesgetriches]

I have chickens, bees, fruit trees, and an absolutely massive garden... all in a major American city. My spouse also hunts and fishes regularly.

In a good year, these efforts account for maaaaaaybe 15% of our food intake.

We still rely on grocery stores for the majority of our calories and nutrition and that's ok. It doesn't mean the garden is a waste of time or that hunting is a waste of effort.

The first eggs all of my niblings ate as children were from MY chickens, that I lovingly raise in a healthy, humane environment. I start every morning with a mug of black tea sweetened with honey from the bees that industriously pollinate my garden. I can't remember the last time I bought salsa, marinara, or bone broth, but I had to build new shelves to store my abundance of canned food only last week!

Growing or foraging your own food is not a wasted effort even if it only replaces a tiny percentage of your grocery store haul. It's an enriching (and time consuming and difficult) hobby that's good for you and good for your community.

Shrimpmas: Blood Overlay

This year lovely @surely-sims opened Shrimpmas up to the community and suggested that we use it as a time to learn a new skill. My offerings are... very small and basic, I've been so busy for the last couple months and I wanted to give myself something that was actually achievable lmao.

Item details:

11 swatches

Blood will show up over clothing and also on uncovered skin

Found in gloves category

A beautiful 1 poly

Enabled for masc and femme frame, teen to elder

I yapped, so download and details below cut 👇

An item of accessory CC I really like are t-shirt decal overlays; I have a small collection and they're a fun way to change otherwise plain tops and show Sim personality. I've been meaning to figure out how they're made so that I could create more and then lovely @j3lly-fish made a tutorial!

However: instead of making t-shirt designs, I realised I could use this to create something else I've been in need of... bloodstains that overlay the clothes Sims are wearing.

While my story was running, I often had to recolour individual items of clothing to show bloodstaining because it bothered me that characters were wearing pristine clothing despite being wounded, or holding others who'd been wounded.

I still think that if you want the best outcome, recolouring the specific clothing your Sim will be wearing is the better option... but hopefully these will be useful, especially for those one-off shots where you maybe don't want to go to the effort of recolouring a whole set!

Known issues:

Placement accuracy depends entirely on the clothing used! They worked with all the EA clothing I tested with, though multi-layed items/larger collars may interfere. They also worked with the majority of MM CC clothing I tested with. Alpha clothing is much more hit and miss and rarely worked!
