COMMUNITY POLL: What do you like BEST about playing TS3 tombs?
Also, what are things you DON’T like?
Reblogs with answers are loved! I want to get an idea of what kinds of features and puzzles to add to my tomb to … flesh it out, so to speak.
Answers are enabled, but reblogs will help spread the word so the poll has a wider audience!
Thank you! :D
Reblog if it's okay for people to come into your askbox and ask about your OCs
Even if I’ve never spoken to them, even if I don’t know them from a hole in the wall, even if they’re on anon, people asking questions about my OCs make my day.
Modular Planter Boxes
A quick little project. A set of 6 connectable quarter-tile planter boxes cloned from Supernatural’s “Clay Tiny Garden Planter Bowl.” These are similar to Gosik’s lovely Mansfield Planters and Somerviille Planters($), but offer a little more flexibility.
My wonderful testers report that these DO NOT REQUIRE Supernatural. :)
Notes:
1 recolorable channel
Found under Decor>Plants
Because these are not centered on the grid, rotating them feels a little clumsy at first, but you’ll figure it out. ;)
Sometimes when placed next to a wall, depending on the rotation, Sims will approach them from the other side, and perform actions THROUGH the wall. It works fine, but it’s up to you if that’s an issue.
Oh, and the dirt texture is a little too matchy with the plant’s dirt so it might be hard to see where your sim is about to plant a seed.

Lawerence Alma-Tadema, The Favorite Poet (1888) / Sappho, fragments
sappho + art | society6
I love how humans have literally not changed throughout history like the graffiti from Pompeii has people from hundreds of years ago writing stuff like “Marcus is gay” “I fucked a girl here” “Julius your mum wishes she was with me” and leonardo da vinci’s assistants drew dicks in their notebooks just for the banter and mozart created a piece called “kiss my ass” so when people wish for ‘today’s generation’ to be like ‘how people used to’ then we’re already there buddy we’ve always been
The Hagia Sophia has inscriptions that were considered sacred for centuries until they were deciphered in the 70s to be Nordic runes saying “Halfdan wrote this”
my old english prof told us that theres a cave in Scandinavia where a viking gratified some runes like 14 feet up on the wall and when they finally reached it all it translated into was “this is very high”

Roman Farmer’s calendar. Rome, Museo della Civiltà Romana, inv. M.C.R. n. 3485 Each side bears the names of three months of the year. For each month we can see, starting from the top: the number of days in it; the day on which the Nones (the day of the Moon’s first quarter) falls; the duration of the day and night expressed in hours; the sign of the zodiac; the protecting divinity; work to be attended to in the fields; and the most important festivities.
Love is a credulous thing.

ok so i am doin the writing and i wondered, did the romans do polyamory? or was it just sort of something that probably happened but nobody talked abt? or was it a no-no? pls help i am wonderin
that’s….really hard to say. i don’t know of any examples of what we would define as polyamory. of course, a married roman man could have sex with his slaves or with prostitutes if he wanted, so long as he wasn’t getting involved with somebody else’s wife or any other woman who was considered respectable and so long as his appetite’s weren’t too voracious. women, on the other hand, were expected to remain faithful. the idea of a polyamorous relationship would have technically not flown with the romans, but i don’t know of any cases of something that we could liken to modern polyamory. i can imagine that it may have happened, but i just have no idea. sorry i don’t know more, but i hope that helps!
It’s not polyamory per se, in fact, I think people argue about what exactly is meant by this particular funereal inscription. You may find the epitaph of Allia Potestas interesting, however.
Reblog if you want to make new friends on here and collab with others!
oh yes…..love making new friends and very willing to collaborate with others

Set of wisteria trees and shrubs for your sims3 game can be downloaded here:
http://simfileshare.net/download/118648/
All are .package files. You will need WA and Ambitions for it:)
THIS IS AN UPDATED VERSION - PLEASE REDOWNLOAD
The distant texture of the shrubs was imported badly which resulted into a “black box” texture. This issue is now fixed:)
Sappho, trans Willis Barnhart
For Lina.
Here goes!
Finally beat TSR workshop into submission (or more likely the other way round), so here they are:
not recolorable, so what you see is what you get!
Also to be found under masonry in game, because like the noob I am, I forgot to change the setting to “paint”… Well, it works, not a too bad job for a first try!
Preview in game:
You can find it here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/hvtp5nda6b56y1c/roman_walls.zip
Both Simspack and packages, separate so you can pick and choose.
Enjoy!
PS: I’ve found some old color renderings of Pompeii murals, so working on those next…
