What's this? Another simblr?

[genefruitsims]

Dusting this thing off...

I know no one watches this simblr anymore but I just opened blender for the first time in probably a decade and have maybe bit off more than I can chew? With the whole buyout situation and not wanting to give EA any more of my money right at the same time that I've started feeling well enough to think about getting back into simming, I figured now was as good a time as any to relearn meshing. Because the Sims is still one of my favorite games, even if official content is off limits. I have no idea how long this project I have in mind is going to take but fingers crossed I can see it through without getting too frustrated or distracted.

The Simka

I'm back with a multi-purpose build for Ciudad Enamorada. Equipped to be a restaurant, bar, or 1-bedroom residential lot. Very loosely based on a little restaurant I used to go to in Guatemala.

TOU and Download under the cut.

TOU - do not claim as your own - do not post to paysites - don't be a dick

If you post screenshots using this lot, I would love to see them.

Psst. Come hang out with me on INSTAGRAM.

For that matter, come hang out with me on TWITCH.

Insta is specifically for Sims. On Twitch, Sims is just a part of the regular rotation, along with things like Minecraft and Stardew Valley. Once I have the energy and patience to edit videos, I’ll also be tossing some gaming stuff on Youtube but that’s still a task set squarely in the realm of “future plans.” For now, Insta and Twitch are the places I’m finding easy enough to work around my disability and anxiety/depression most of the time. Soooo...yeah. That’s where I am these days, if anyone was wondering.

[genefruitsims]

New simstagram. New legacy.

[genefruitsims]

Y’all, checking out the previews for Paranormal Stuff actually has me excited to play again. Just imagine it: this simblr being active with gameplay and possibly even cc again.

Don’t Know Where to Find Black-Owned Businesses? These Five Apps Can Help - AfroTech

August is set aside to help shed light on Black ownership and encourage others to support Black-owned businesses. This month marks the fifteenth anniversary of the holiday, National Black Business Month , which was started by Frederick E. Jordan and John William Templeton in 2004 . However, supporting Black-owned businesses can be difficult if you don’t know where they are. We’ve rounded up a list of five apps or websites that will help direct you to Black-owned businesses. From restaurants to hair care, there’s a little bit of something for everybody. 1. EatOkra (iOS and Android) If you’re in the mood for food, consider checking out EatOkra. Founded by Anthony and Janique Edwards in 2016, this app helps you locate Black-owned restaurants in 35 different cities, including Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Chicago, and more. Don’t get offended if you log on and notice that a beloved Black restaurant from your city is missing. EatOkra relies on users to help direct it to...

Bee Braids

✊🏿BLACK LIVES MATTER RALLY✊🏿 || ✊🏿Sunday 7th June 2020✊🏿

Hey there my loves.

I seldom have words to really describe how I am feeling right now. I know the same goes for many of us. Distress. Sadness. Anger. Hurt. These are just a few of the many feelings that we are currently experiencing. Most of all. We are TIRED. We are tired of Black lives being taken brutally by police. We are tired of justice never being served. We are tired of the news saying they “died” when they were murdered. TIRED. The murder of George Floyd, one of the more recent victims of police brutality, has sparked protests internationally. The world is waking up; we’ve had enough and are demanding justice.

The Sims, whilst it is a way to escape, is also used to portray life as we know it.This is why I want to organise a Black Lives Matter Rally. 

It’s crazy to me, that 4 years ago the sims community got together and did a rally hosted by @simflux​ and @circasim​. What’s even more crazy is we are back at the point where another one has to be organised. Thank you for the inspiration and courage to revive your last rally, to bring awareness to the injustices faced by Black men, women and children. 

✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 How To Attend The Rally ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽

This Sunday (7th June), using the #BLMSimsRally #Ebonix #Ebonixsims hashtags, I’d love you all to share photos across your social medias of your sims and RP characters participating in the rally. I want to create a huge post of participants once the rally is completed. There is no backdrop, but using my old Rally Pack, your sims can rally on the streets of any town in your game (I would recommend San Myshuno!)

Be creative with it! There’s no right or wrong way to do this. You are just using your own outlet to show support for the movement!  Please feel free to use your own backgrounds, png people and everything else if you wish to. This is your portrayal of your rally and I want to share it with the world.

Rally Resources

I made a Rally Pack back in 2016, which is still being used today, so feel free to use it, recolour it, do whatever you want. It definitely needs an update.

Download BLM Rally Pack Here 

I’ve also created some more recent t-shirts and sweaters for this rally, which I hope you all like. If you make CC, don’t hesitate to make your own!

Download BLM Merch Here

Mesh Credits: 

@elliesimple​ - 80s Ombre Shirt @ooobsooo​ - Sweatshirt 3 @jordutch​ - Brands Sweater @youn-zoey - T Shirt (included)

I will be reblogging any creations by creators who’s made content related to BLM also.

If you play TS3 and want to join in, I’d love to see your rally posts too! You can download merch by @simflux​ HERE

If you play TS2, I don’t know if there are any pieces yet to be made, so if you are a creator and would like to help TS2 community to participate, I’d greatly appreciate your support with this!

✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 What You Can Do To Help ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽

Aside from the Rally, there are a number of RL things you can do to make a change and impact in fighting for justice for Black lives. 

On my website, I have provided details of organisations you can donate to, material you can read and petitions you can sign. You can make a difference in this. We all can. Get the info HERE

I hope to see your sims at the rally ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 

Black Lives Matter.

Home - Black Lives Matter

The official #BlackLivesMatter Global Network builds power to bring justice, healing, and freedom to Black people across the globe.

While I have enough of the Rabble legacy prepared for quite awhile and some new pride month cc in the works, it feels wrong to post it just yet. I would rather support those in need of whatever help can be given. Due to my disability, I can’t give physical support. Due to having zero income, I can’t do much monetarily, either. I can, however, bring attention to black creators, black businesses, and legitimate funds. First and foremost, Black Lives Matter because that is a phrase that should not keep requiring repetition and they are an organization that should not have to exist and yet here we are in 2020 still in constant need of reminding and still desperately requiring someone capable of speaking loudly enough to be that reminder.

BLACK LIVES MATTER

End of story. 

[llamaloaf-deactivated20201005]

Hi, I was surprised & pleased to find your post of Bob Pancakes in his #BLM t-shirt! Especially now. May I ask where I can download this amazingly vital piece of cc? Thank you so much!

Here ya go! I separated them by DLC. The City Living ones (first photo) replace the activist shirts for men and women, as long as your sim chooses “World United” as their cause. Enjoy and stay safe!

Diary, I think my duel with Maki the other day loosened something up in my mind, something that had just been stuck before. Balancing unviersity and magical studies has just become so much easier lately. Also, I had a proper bathroom put in. That’s made things much easier, too.

[genefruitsims]

I think Grace has been gossiping about our little falling out. Maki didn’t say specifically how she found out but she invited me out for a duel to “blow off some steam.” Whether she was going easy on me or my frustration with everything put some more oomph behind my magic, I don’t know, but it was the first time I ever beat her.

[genefruitsims]

Dear Diary Something terrible happened. I don’t really want to talk about it but, well, let’s just say that I probably won’t be seeing much of Grace any time soon. On the bright side, the cute bartender was working again. He told me his name, I think, but I may have had one too many drinks to actually remember what it was.

[genefruitsims]

Dear Diary, I can’t believe it’s spooky season already! It’s mostly been life as usual around here - aside from having to figure out this whole school/life/magic balance - so I haven’t really had much reason to write until now. And why now, you may ask? Well, because I’ve finally got a proper home! Sort of! It’s more like I’m digging out my own little person-sized ants’ nest, I suppose, but I’ve got a bit more living space, a kitchenette, and laundry facilities that don’t make my arms feel like noodles or get consistently undermined by the rain.
