#generational spaceship

[spacevoyagesimstrek]

I built this generational spaceship as part of a Sims 4 challenge I'm developing. I'm imagining that the sims who live here are on a generations-long journey to a distant star system, where they will attempt to repopulate simanity. The gist of the challenge is that they're not allowed to leave, and they have to be self-sufficient for 5 generations.

I've been chronicling the adventures of my space voyagers on Reddit for some time now. I'm up to something like 116 episodes. I'm going to start posting them all on Tumblr, too. If you want to read the whole story so far, feel free to check me out at https://www.reddit.com/user/justice-for-tuvix/

#23: An Unkindness of Ghosts by Rivers Solomon

Aster removed two scalpels from her med-kit to soak in a solution of disinfectant. Her fingers trembled from the cold, and the tools slipped from her grasp, plopping ungracefully into the sanitizer. In ten minutes' time, she'd be amputating a child's gangrenous foot. This shaking and carrying on would not do.

Rating: 4/5

Three Sentence Review: This was a hard book to read, full of subject matter that was raw and harrowing, but I think the uncomfortable-ness makes it all the more important to read. Aster's story was emotional, gripping, and felt very real thanks to how grounded it was in history and science. I just wish that the ending had been a bit less ambiguous, with more concrete hope that things might get better.
