Love & Basketball (Dir. Gina Prince-Bythewood)
I first read “if you were lazy you would be having fun” on your blog and it has genuinely been a life-changing piece of advice for me and my friends - I’ve said it to like four of my other executive dysfunction judies and without fail it earns a ten second silence followed by a single revelatory “fuck”
My dad and I actually ran into the speech language pathologist who told me that over 20 years ago at a town hall a few months back—she is retired now, but still advocating for disabled students at IEP meetings and being a nuisance to school administrators. I thanked her for everything, and she was delighted to hear that I was passing her words along to other people who needed to hear them!
w. wait fuck. this is the first time I've heard this. hold on I need to sit down. I need a second. this shatters my worldview just a little bit h. hold on
oh my fucking god
Everyone go home. The internet is over.
From his grave, Magritte is CRYING with laughter.
Sometimes, fanfiction is carefully plotted out stories, with plot points and call backs and themes that all tie it up in a meaningful and exciting way.
And sometimes fanfiction is, ‘Watch me do a fucking KICK FLIP off this cool sentence!! Also here's some sex'
Both are beautiful forms of writing.
"It's like a tumour!"
I need to try this so people can go "how'd you make it?" and I can reply "the cheese is the secret ;)" and watch as they laugh, not believing me.
between odysseus carving his marital bed from a tree trunk and penelope weaving and un-weaving a funeral shroud to stave off her suitors, i think what homer is telling us is that the foundation of a good relationship is arts and crafts
when you think about it tho pliny the elder is kind of the funniest guy in the world like. he wrote all these books about natural history that he was wrong about where he confidently claims things like “some animals only have blood during certain parts of the year” and then when mt. vesuvius erupted and destroyed pompeii and herculaneum he said “oh mt vesuvius is exploding? let me go check it out” and then he died
the man was committed to science. he wasn’t very good at it. but he was committed
Left Tumblr in like 2016 and now I'm back as a Twitter Refugee, I feel so sad I missed out on so much and I barely recognize this place from how it was before... Any advise now that I'm back?

I’ve got sims from about half the contestants so far and since I’m still short some people, I’m going to go ahead and extend the deadline to give some others some time to sign up. Let me know if you’re interested!
Nicola ‘Nic’ Yeung was raised in the heart of Roaring Heights by two successful parents. She “didn’t apply herself” in school, instead choosing to spend her time immersed in fantasies of her own making, scraping by with only passable grades. While working as a barista after graduating high school, Nic began posting her stories online, eventually teaching herself basic programming skills to develop text-based adventure games and branching out into modding best-selling games to add new quests.
It was in one of her online forums that she met Max, another avid modder who endorsed her quest mods and offered his help programming and animating future ideas she might have. The two hit it off and began creating bigger and more complex mods for their favorite games until they finally decided to meet IRL. Nic and Max dated for the next 3 years, during which they formed their own small indie company, Shadoware Studios. Their debut title, Parallax, won Best Debut Indie Game. Nic was only 25 at the time. The much anticipated sequel, Parallax II: Call of Thoggus is set to release next year.
Though she hates crowds and being the center of attention, Nic is easily in her element when advocating for her game and characters. She’s truly passionate about what she does (she’s loathe to call it “work”) and will fight tooth and nail for her studio. Nic longs to find someone who understands and accepts her passion, but someone who can also be a balancing force in her life. Max cares just as deeply for Shadoware and, ultimately, the two never made time for each other outside of work. When it became clear it was either their relationship or Shadoware, both equally and unequivocally made the choice to pick their true love over each other. Nic needs someone who can understand this and not be threatened by her devotion to Shadoware (and her close relationship with an ex), but who also encourages and entices her to live outside her fantasy realm.
Nic rarely makes time for her personal life outside of work and has thus decided to become the next bachelorette in the hopes that the producers can help her meet her match.
Rules:
12 spots available!
Male and female sims.
Vanilla only. I’m too boring for berry.
No supernatural/occult sims.
CC is acceptable but I do ask that you use it discerningly, rather than just for the sake of using CC.
If you do use CC, it must be linked and/or included.
I’ll be using my default eye and skin replacements, found in my FAQ, so if your sim uses something different, please use non-default.
.sim files only. I don’t install anything through the launcher.
I have all EPs and every SP except Movie Stuff.
The sooner I can get this going, the better! That said, I’d like to put a hard deadline of February 4th on receiving all sims.
Each sim should have a small, accompanying bio please! I’ll need a good feel for each contestant as the challenge will be told in a narrative style. I will also be sending questionnaires for confessionals, like with Jesse’s BC. Participation is optional.
Your sim may have 5 total skillpoints. You may include which skillpoints you’d like in either the bio or a private .txt in the download and I will make sure to assign them with master controller at the start of the save.
Please message me if you’d like a spot. When ready, tag your submissions hsbc2; I’ll be tagging and tracking that for this challenge.
Today I bring you two painting recolours with some lovely livestock to liven up your sims lives! The set includes 16 poultry and 8 cattle from many breeds, Simlish text, and fully match so you can easily pair them together.

Coming soon...
Sims in search of a stylish home with ample room to live need look no further, the Svelte Swede is here! With two floors, two full baths, and four bedrooms (two of which are staged as an art studio and family room), this mid-century Scandinavian gem has something to offer for both single sims and couples who want space for entertaining, or a big family in need of some room to grow.
Low EP, low CC.

hello! I am been trying to make Bone sliders (so I can do a tutorial) but am stuck on a few things and was wondering if you could help? Its mainly how to compensate (when one bone makes another also change) and how to read the scaling values from blender, as blender doesnt use negatives but TS3 does? Thank you!!
Howdy! For scaling values in Blender, I actually wrote an entire tutorial about that, along with some other stuff, golly, years ago now. http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=480225That lays out how to interpret slider values between Blender and the Bonedelta Editor, including scaling, location, and rotation, and making any of those figures negative.
I don’t specifically address compensating when one bone changes another, but I dealt with that when making my belly width slider (http://www.modthesims.info/d/480643/) and honestly at that time I just eyeballed it. It’s been....holy crap it’s been 7 years since I made those, so my memory is not exact, but basically I just toyed around with scaling the next bone down in the spine until I got something I was pleased enough with. I seem to recall I found that simply inverting the scales I’d applied to the “original” bone didn’t work, for whatever reason, so as said I just kept tweaking it until it looked right. There is probably some more scientific way to do it, but at the time I only needed to do it for the one slider so it wasn’t worth my time to investigate further.
Hope this helps!
Eta: and I forgot to say, if you use my info in your tutorial, please credit and link back to me, as I put in a lot of hard work figuring this stuff out. Thanks!
This house may be tiny, but it's big on charm! This cute bachelor pad has all of the amenities a single sim needs to thrive (with canine companion!), plus a vegetable garden which will be the envy of the entire neighbourhood.
It's a bit of a squeeze, but all of the items are functional, and the house has everything required to fulfill needs, including a full kitchen, three piece bathroom, dresser, desk, and bookshelf. Plus a bed, toy box, and bowl for a cat or small dog.
Test cat even liked having a nap under the TV in an earlier, routing-test version of the lot!

The Windswept is finally done! Inspired by a lovely, unusually shaped home I saw once, The Windswept lacks symmetry but more than makes up for it in charm. This off-kilter family home features a sloped roof which encloses ample space for a family of four, including a master suite loft and eat-in kitchen.
EPs: Seasons, SN, Gen, Pets. Low CC (only 2 items, one of which is optional)

The Honeycomb is live!
A quiet spot to get away from the bustle, or a cozy home to raise the kids. The Honeycomb has something for every family. This two-bed, two-bath house has room for a family of four, or could easily be converted into a retreat for a couple with a lovely home office. There's an airy, spacious porch attached to the side, perfect for lazy summer days or eating outside, and a backyard with a pond to keep the kids entertained.
