Hello! Just wanted to let you know about an issue I had with the House of Fallen Trees. I placed it in my neighborhood and everything looked fine until after a few saves/reloads of the lot, I noticed a random gravestone (I think it was Simon Crumplebottom???) Not sure if this was my neighborhood or the lot's fault, but it might be worth looking into. Thanks!

Thanks for letting @mrsktrout and I know, and I hope you don’t mind me answering this publicly. 

Has anyone else had an issue with it? This was a clean, unplayed version pulled from @meetmetotheriver‘s clean downtown, so I imagine it’s possibly to do with your hood.

I’d appreciate any feedback anyone has.

sushigal007 said: I don’t mind the navy background too much but the bright, saturated neon on it is horrible.

Yeah, it’s the contrast that makes my eyes hurt... I always had issues with high contrast stuff (my Mom also has issues with sensory overload and the older I get, the more I have these issues as well). And I get headaches very quickly (and can feel one sneak up on my right now, so after I replied to this stuff, I’m gonna head off to bed).

eulaliasims said: oh boy. I fully support accessibility measures, but they need to make this an *option* you can switch off and on. white text on dark backgrounds is amazing for a lot of people, but personally it strains my eyes. :/

Yes, this would be actually useful for people. Right now, people just feel pissed off. And people who actually could use this are probably scared to say anything. Not ideal.

sonkiarolas said: If we use the page in total darkness, It could damage our eyes, I should add a Dark Mode.

My room is pretty dark by nature (weird room shape) and the page is just painful to look at.

simoleontree said: i dont know what to do with them :/

I try, but... what do you even put inside of 4 big squares?

stellaterrano said: Ugh, it’s THE WOOOORST!! I wish there was an auto-landscape option 😂

That would be so cool!

salamisimmer said: Can’t landscape either. I stick some trees, flowerbeds, and shrubs near or right beside houses and call it a day. Amazed @ ppl who landscape with moveobjects on and actually make it look real good lol

I’m so jealous at people who can landscape!

stellaterrano replied to your photo: So because DROPBOX, does anyone have this hair,...

I have them!

OH MY GOD YES! You are amazing! Do you wanna reblog this or something with a link? You have made my day, my dear. Thank you so much!

Was playing ts2 earlier today and thought I'd drop in on my favorite gal and make a new tumblr icon :D

End of the year tag! I got tagged by *takes deep breath* @stellaterrano , @lilibethsonar and @holleyberry . Thanks for tagging me!

Rules: Find your fave pics of your story, your CC, or your blog in general and post in a collage! It can be 1 picture or 100– When you’re done tag 5 people or more~! 

I limited myself to 10 pictures. These are some of my favourites (not all of them, a post with all of them would probably crash tumblr’s servers). Some of them are sad, some of them are cheerful, some show the very beginnings of Middleground, others are more recent, some show bad life choices and one isn’t even a picture of Middleground (can you believe it? This year, I actually played Strangetown- which is on hiatus, not discontinued-, did some storytelling- most of which still sits in my drafts folder... whoops!-, played a little neighbourhood just for myself, tried my hands at a selfmade ‘challenge’- resurrecting the Tricous-, and then, of course, started Middleground. Next year, I -I’ll probably go on a short hiatus in February because *drumroll* I’ll finally be teaching real students for a bit, yay! (for everyone that’s like “huh, wasn’t she a die-hard drama major?”- I switched majors in 2016/17 as I figured out what my priorities in life are). But I will continue to keep you updated on Middleground, as that neighbourhood has become quite dear to me.

I’m so late to the party, it’s not even funny. So, I’m not gonna tag anyone, sorry.

And oh boy, are there many...

Nocturnal college professors

audreysims14 said: I’ve also found my professors are either quite good at getting back in a timely manner, or even within the hour, or they take days. There is no in between

Yeah, college professors are a weird species... like, I am the college student. I’m supposed to be up until the wee hours of the morning. You are a functioning adult being, why do you email me at 3 in the morning?

Orlando being a little brat

didilysims said: He’s on the prowl for newspapers, of course!

The orphanage must have terrible security, though!

Bye bye, dogs!

didilysims said: Oh no!

I was so shocked when that happened. Thankfully, pet adoption requirements are pretty lax...

When Brandon met Kaylynn

moocha-muses said: You need to push harder for the Joe/Komei reconciliation, Brandon! How else are you going to get him out of your place?

But he also likes to keep out of other people’s businesses. And if it gets unbearable, no one would judge him if he’d throw Brandon out.

Brandon and Sandy contemplating marriage

littleblondesim said: elopement?

Not really an option in this small town. The neighbours are really noisy, I heard. XD

holleyberry said: I don’t think they will roll an engagement want with the married there. Have you tried having them go on a date?

holleyberry said: Oh, nevermind :P

Yeah, I don’t really feel like “unlocking” their wedding wants at this point. Who knows if they’ll ever roll one again, and at this point, them wanting to marry is basically “canon”.

Joe’s and Kaylyn’s... weird date

stellaterrano said: Don’t you hate it when you want a ring but your man just wants to buy a car and a stereo 😂

Typical Fortune-Family dating incompatibility... or really Fortune-any other Sims (why are they so obsessed with buying things on dates?)

Rude sleepover guests

eulaliasims said: I don’t know of one that does it autonomously, though I sure would like one too. Maybe you can use Dolphin’s Control This Sim hack to do it manually?

Hm, never tried that one out. Not sure if the effort is worth the result, though. *sigh* A mod like this would be awesome!

holleyberry said: You deserve it Joe.

If only Joe cared about it. No, that is my internal dialogue everytime I see him. I like him, I really do, but if he could stop barging into stranger’s houses, that would be great.

Apologizing

holleyberry said: I hate people who say sorry but don’t say what they are sorry for. That’s important, imo. Even if they both know what he’s sorry for him actually saying it holds more weight.

Baby steps... Joe’s learning. (Also, psssht! That might be a ‘plot point’ in the future...)
