I spent a lot of my time on Tumblr via the mobile app, and it’s incredibly frustrating to try and navigate someone’s blog when it doesn’t allow you to access their actual page, so here’s a bunch of links & info!
navigation
resources
downloads
tags (for blacklisting purposes, e.g. if you don’t want to see things I’ve reblogged or stuff that isn’t sims-related)*:
*all tags don’t have actual quotes, that’s just so I can easily show what the tag actually is
I’m gonna put the rest of this under the cut, since it’s getting kind of long, but it also covers tags, plus LGBT+ content, any potential trigger warnings (if anyone wants something trigger-tagged, let me know) etc.
I use “nonsims kinda” or “nonsims” for things that are either not things that I, myself, posted, but are reblogs of things loosely related to sims content, or things that just aren’t related to the sims at all
I use “reblog” for things that I’ve reblogged, which may or may not be related to the sims
I don’t really post nsfw stuff at all, and if I do (e.g. un-pixelated sim woohoo, since I hate the censor since it interferes with screenshots), I’m not super great at tagging it. I’ll try to tag those as “sims nsfw” in the future.
Again, I pretty much only post sims content on this blog, but if there are any trigger tags you’d like me to add to specific posts or just in general, feel free to send me an ask on or off anon! Those tags will be in this format: “[potentially triggering thing] tw” (without the quotes or the brackets, e.g. pregnancy tw).
Misc Stuff:
Also, some of my sims are LGBT+, and although I am LGBT+ myself, I know that others’ experiences can be super different to my own, so if I say or do anything that irks you or may be incorrect, please send me an ask on or off anon!
Finally (this is getting kinda long), if there is anything I can do to improve the accessibility of my blog, feel free to send me an ask on or off anon! I want everyone to be able to be comfortable on my blog, and be able to access everything on it (if anyone remembers my “yellow background with white text” phase...In my defense, I was on mobile, and I really like the color yellow).
Phew, that was a long one. Thank you for reading, and I hope you enjoy my blog!
donations for marah have significantly slowed down, as i have not been able to dedicate as much time to sharing posts as i have in the past :( the balousha family is famished, exhausted, depressed, and desperate. i care about them deeply and i hope that you're able to share this post and spare a dollar or two! :)
I am hosting this campaign !! The money you have all helped raise for this family has kept them alive through this nightmare - please continue to share and donate if you can!
@mahrahpalestine @palestinian95 this campaign is vetted, please check marah's blog(s) out!
Hello friends! I'm still lurking around a bit (explanation to follow), but please donate to Marah if you can! Conditions in G@za are getting worse and worse by the day, and every little bit helps. <3
why are people saying that they're finally able to play ts1 and ts2 again soon? the installers exist, you'll be spending money on stuff that you can have for free with community fixes.
↑↑↑
Osab's installers are fantastic and easy to use. I actually reinstalled TS2 on a whim a few days ago using the web installer and I was so impressed. It gives you all packs + bonus Maxis content + all necessary fixes, for free.
My name is Hala, from Deir al-Balah, Gaza. I live with my four children, Abdul, Jaber, Mohammed, and Lian, and my mother-in-law, in a never-ending nightmare. Our home was bombed, and everything we had turned to ashes. Now, we live in a burnt house, with no safety or hope..
My husband, Adham, is stuck in Egypt, and I face this torment alone. My children suffer from hunger and illness, and we have nothing to protect them. Life here is unbearably difficult; every day is a struggle for survival.
I urgently need your help to raise $35,000 so we can escape, as each person requires $5,000. This money isn’t just numbers; it’s our hope for a new life away from pain and suffering. We are human beings who deserve to live, so please don’t let us drown in this nightmare.
Help us, as we are in desperate need of your support.
I wanted to amplify these fundraisers as they try to reach their goals, as they've reached out to me for help. They are all part of the @gazavetters list, if you can help by donating or sharing please feel free to.
Urgent! Please help a father save his three young daughters from war
This family is very low on funds, with only €4,237 out of the €40,000 goal
I was reached out to by Ahed to make a post for his family. This fundraiser is vetted by Gazavetters, #229 on their spreadsheet
Ahed is a 33 year old father of three young girls with his wife Maisoon. Getting Ahed the funds to evacuate his family is very urgent because they have three children under the age of ten with them, who currently don’t have access to food, clean water, or medical treatment they need. They’re at risk of bombs, infectious illnesses, and starvation every day they remain in Gaza. every hour matters
Ahed’s daughters are the light of his life and his motivation to keep going, and he’s campaigning on here every day to keep them safe. In Ahed’s words, his daughter Fatima (9) is “the closest to my heart, and my little one.”, Iman (6) “The friendly, kind, and loving child who is loved by everyone”, and little Nour, only one year old: “Who did not live her life like other children, as she was born two months before the war”.
Imagine that you’ve just had a baby girl, and you look at her with so much love and imagine with excitement what a bright future she’ll have and how she’ll play with her siblings. And only two months later, your whole life is turned upside down, and you have to wonder every day how you’ll feed her and keep her safe.
This is what happened to Ahed and his wife when they should’ve been at their happiest with a newborn daughter, everything turned into a nightmare. Their apartment was destroyed in a bombing, they were displaced multiple times, and suddenly they were raising their beautiful daughters in a war zone.
Every hour in Gaza is dangerous. Please help get Ahed, Maisoon and their children to safety as soon as possible 🙏🏼 Every donation will bring them closer to a future where Fatima, Iman, and Nour can play together and go to school and rest and recover from what they’ve been through.
Please give Ahed and Maisoon peace where they don’t have to watch their children suffer from illness and malnutrition, the worst thing for a parent to experience.
Please let Nour experience what peace feels like.
Thank you for reading their story, if you’re not able to donate, please share so it can reach people who are able to.
The arrow sign indicates the covers that we use to close the windows. When there are no windows, we use them to close these openings to protect our children from the bitter cold at night.This is what we can do to protect our children from the cold weather at night, despite the ineffectiveness of these covers, but this is what we have..
today's vetted fundraisers. please support these families in whatever way you're able; they really need our help

Hello! I'm sorry that I've disappeared for so long; college has been incredibly time-consuming, and I'm dealing with some annoying health issues. I know that this isn't sims content, but it's important; I've chosen to share this on this blog since I have the largest following here out of any of my social media accounts. Unfortunately, someone I know has family currently trapped in Rafah. Escaping costs several thousand dollars per person, and anything you can possibly give could save the lives of their family members. Please donate at this link if you can, and thank you for reading! <3
