hey y’all!
this blog is a collection of (mostly) TS4 content, from maxis match/mix CC to mods to sims showcases. I wanted a way to organize all of the wonderful CC I've seen without a million bookmarks in my browser. This post is still under construction, but I'll try to keep this it updated as often as needed. About me, mods and tags below the cut.

mods
I am currently not playing with any mods (I removed them to report a bug after the last patch and I'm too lazy to update and re-add them all lol). However, here are some of my favorites:
🚀 Clean Launcher App - an absolute MUST-HAVE. This application isn't exactly a mod, but it has been a game changer when it comes to installing and organizing your mods and CC. You can also easily back up your mods, saves, and tray folders, as well as set profiles to switch between mod setups.
Sim Info Manager - this allows you to view and modify your sims' info and details. You can add or remove traits, buffs, moodlets, etc., as well as affect the relationship values between two sims.
SimU: Academic Life - an amazing online university mod that is BGC! It allowed me to replace Discover University and still get the career boosts. Plus there's an option to do some job postings from the SimU academic portal that both boost your skills and makes you simoleons. Waaay less stressful than the DU system.
tagging
For the most part, posts will be tagged with the creator's tumblr username for reblogged posts. For content that I am posting from outside tumblr, those will be tagged with the creator's handle, either from Patreon, SFS (or similar websites) or their EA Gallery ID. additionally, when a creator mentions any game packs used or required, I will tag it with the appropriate shorthand (ex: EP01 for Get To Work, GP01 for Outdoor Retreat, SP01 for Luxury Party Stuff). A very helpful guide for all of the DLC can be found here thanks to crinrict.
List of common tags:
CAS - for CC or mods that are used in Create-A-Sim. CC will be further broken down into generic categories (hair, clothing, accessories, masculine, feminine, etc.)

BGC - for CC, mods, or builds that are base game compatible
noCC - for builds or sims that don't use CC and only use EA packs, debug, and/or live edit objects
