I've noticed a trend of creators uploading custom content to curseforge, and either not linking it here on tumblr, or hiding those links. If you go to a download link and "rightclick -> copy link" and see that the link includes "forgecdn", that is a curseforge link. But bypasses the page and downloads the content immediately. Before you can even tell its a curseforge link.

A lot of creators are trying to use curseforge to host their content, and then hide this from their blogs or download posts, hoping you wont notice when the link takes you to a direct download from curseforge.

stop using curseforge

the fact that Israel can precisely target ONE apartment in an entire residential block in BEIRUT to kill two hamas leaders, proves once again that they CHOSE to carpet-bomb Gaza and murder 31.000 Palestinians to "defend themselves" against Hamas. Israel CHOSE to kill civilians, they CHOSE to bomb every hospital, every school, every refugee camp, every residential block. israel does NOTHING to spare the lives of palestinians, they want to thin out the population of gaza so they'd be able to settle their citizens there.

this is a genocide it's an ethnical cleansing PLEASE WAKE UP don't stop talking about Palestine it is not a trend, people are still dying, Israel has no plan to stop if WE don't force it to, through public pressure and protesting and boycotting. it's the least we can do.

tumblr changed again, what is this live thing? i do not know and I am not likely to learn because:

I really do not spend much time on tumblr these days. I don't know. You end a near-decade long relationship and life just kinda changes, what a shocker. Anyway! I just haven't been spending quite so much frivolous time on the internet, so I don't know if I'll return to the Xiaos ):

but hey, what's one less legacy really?

[garbagedad95]

Last month, I had the idea that I was going to make a bunch of black sims this month in honor of Black History Month, but then February rolled around and life is just kicking my ass and everything keeps breaking and going wrong and I just have no interest in anything and no energy to make sims.

Anyway, I guess I'm on hiatus which feels funny to say when I think all but maybe 3 or 4 of the blogs that follow me are very clearly pornbots. I know it's not a unique problem at all, but it does still surprise me anew every time I check tumblr.

I am proud to say that I have filled up the queue with Xiao posts until Friday! I'm hoping I will maybe be a bit better about keeping up with them, but I probably won't be let's be real.

SHE'S HERE. Welcome to the land of mobility, Frances Xiao! She rolled charmer, which is very fitting (whereas fussy doesn't actually suit Morgan that well). Emerson is writing and hanging out with the babies. And he got a haircut! And peep his sick ass collectibles that I finally put up! Technically it's just the landing, but it serves as Em's office space so he can work and still be with the kiddos :))

Birthday date birthday date birthday date! Sara just gave birth so they had a nice little at-home date and Emerson made some ~gourmet pasta~ which Sara absolutely inhaled because she is a glutton (very annoying trait when you want to make food for the household in advance, let me tell you). It was cute and slightly awkward because they are still a kind of mismatched couple.

Welcome to Adulthood, babies! Also, how good does Emerson look?

[garbagedad95]

I didn't mean to do a baby cliffhanger, but babies are just so uninteresting that I literally didn't take any pictures until post-toddler-ification. Morgan is happy to have a new sibling! But he is not happy to get a hug from mommy :( I have a ton of mods to maximize autonomy and make sims as individual as possible, and Sara is a shining example of those working because I have never had a sim who seems so strangely ambivalent about being a parent! She doesn't (and didn't) have a fear of pregnancy or anything, she just... doesn't click very well with the tots? And she doesn't actually try very often, so when she does it is often rejected. On the contrary, I'm not sure I've ever had a sim so immediately enamored of parenting as Emerson, who seems to adore every second of it and wants to spend all his time with the kids. I feel a little bad for Sara, but am fascinated by the dichotomy.

[garbagedad95]

Emerson excels at parenting, by the way, and seems to adore every second of it. Morgan does not excel at makeup-doing, though.

I can't help it and I'm not even sorry, I just love this little booger. LOOK at him! He is pretending he is a kitty cat! Loki looks so sad to not have a toddler clapping in his face, but don't worry Loki he loves you, too.

[garbagedad95]

Meet Morgan!!! He is fussy and absolutely precious. Emerson looks like he might faint. He loves fatherhood, but much like myself is thinking, "YOU JUST GAVE BIRTH!" There's no time to dwell on that though, because Sara has to go to an impromptu expecting mom's club in the city center in the dead of winter. But hey, look! Marisol is pregnant too!

[garbagedad95]

Sara has the nurturing trait, but is surprisingly not-very-nurturing in practice. And also not particularly inclined towards motherhood.

Oh, and yes. Yes, these pictures are in the correct order, she immediately got pregnant again. You just gave birth Sara!!! Classic family sim behavior though- want a million babies, be weirdly indifferent to said babies, ignore them to go do a sexy growl at your best friend.

[garbagedad95]

I just think that top pic feels so cozy. Sara was teaching Loki to sit when she went into labor! She seems mildly uncomfortable, but mostly pretty chill. Emerson is losing it, but Sara is just like "hold on, I have to finish teaching him sit"

[garbagedad95]

The baby room is too small to take good pics in, apologies.

Sara moved in! And the house got some kid-friendly additions :)
