The moment we have all been waiting for… the updated version of my Simsie Save. I finally finished fixing everything in Del Sol Valley, and I’m finally happy with it all and ready to share. This version took a lot more fixing than usual because the lots in Del Sol Valley were… special.
I “fixed” the entire Sims 4. I went in and renovated every community lot, filled every empty lot with new homes and locations, and created new CC free townies to fill every empty house in the game.
What’s included? - 34 brand new lots - Renovated versions of every EA community lot - 65 new townie families (all with skills, careers, relationships, & stories)
What’s new in this version? - 5 new households - 3 new community lots in Newcrest (Two restaurants and a bar/bowling alley) - Renovations of every lot in Del Sol Valley - New lots to replace Mirage Park - Fixed broken Police Station - Now starts on first day of Summer at 6am
Requirements and download instructions under the cut.
I thought things couldn’t get more horrifyingly amusing than the woman who wanted people to pay $1000 each to go to her wedding so she could “feel like a Kardashian for a day” and had a Facebook breakdown about it saying she was gonna go backpacking in Peru to “find herself” after being “betrayed” by her friends who didn’t want to partake but here we are
I thought it was the same person ngl.
I’m in the wedding shaming group and saw both this and the Peru post before it went viral. Love it.
THERE’S AN UPDATE
Stephanie is a true hero.
my favorite thing about this update is that the fact that we are even SEEING this means there’s AT LEAST one other snitch in the party that she hasn’t caught yet
He assisted his mother giving birth to his 6 siblings
Yes he was only 2 yo when Charlie was born but that didn’t stop him
His siblings take his words into consideration better than their parents’
“but Bill said this is lame so leave it”, said Fred and George once. “If Bill isn’t going to sleep, I am not going to sleep too!”, said Ginny once. “no, I’m actually going to sleep, Ginny.” “prove it!” he then proves it.
He’s very smart so he was a great help during his siblings’ basic education: how to do math, to write, to read. he even tought a 2 yo Ron how to make sandwiches
Bill was an example for his brothers and sister to not complain about their parents financial reality.
“shut up you little shits there are people in worse situation and you won’t see them whining about it.”
When Bill went to Egypt, they missed him so much but that didn’t stop them from exchanging brief letters. “Bill, mum is really pissed off, please send help.”
Next morning, Molly and Arthur receive a mail from Egypt and she’s all smiling again, distracted with whatever Bill’s got for her
Bill is like very chill. Someone stole his golds from work? It’s all good, I’ll bring six times more next time. Got attacked by Fenrir Greyback? That was just a scratch.
When Fleur asked him to help with her English, he said. “I won’t teach you grammar and all this bullshit. let’s have dinner and talk.” that’s how he effortlessly, smoothly went out with Fleur Delacour.
what they mean: i dont know how to handle small animals and consider them lashing out in SELF DEFENSE an insult
Usually what it boils down to is “I’m mad because the cat didn’t act like a dog”.
Pushing fragile things off tables and breaking them: Self defense.
Destroying Christmas Trees: Self defense, I mean the tree attacked them.
Scratching their owner’s eyeball: Self defense.
Scratching their sleeping owner’s face: Self defense.
Jumping on their owner’s back and clawing into their spine: Self defense.
Admittedly yeah
A dog doesn’t do those things because a dog’s version of self defense is to be a good animal who loves you and doesn’t attack you unless you attack them first.
I mean if a cat feels that threatened by everything in their owner’s household maybe the owner shouldn’t have gotten a cat.
Pushing fragile things off tables and breaking them: Playing. Cats are well-known to like to play with small objects. Your cat does not know what “fragile” means and does not understand the distinction between toy and not-toy objects. Place fragile things out of a cat’s line of sight and reach, and if you don’t provide them with enough enrichment items that they go looking for them, that’s on you.
Destroying Christmas Trees: Cats like to climb things. They’re not doing it to spite you.
Scratching their owner’s eyeball: Probably an accident, due to overstimulation when playing. It wasn’t trying to hurt you. Don’t anthropomorphize animals by attributing spite to them. Animals don’t do spite the way that humans do.
Scratching their sleeping owner’s face: Trying to rouse you with its paw, probably gently, because it loves you and wants to play with you.
Jumping on their owner’s back and clawing into their spine: Come on. If a cat is jumping on you, it loves you and wants to be close to you. Digging in with its claws is how it balances itself on an unstable surface and is purely a reflexive reaction. It isn’t intending to hurt you.
99% of cat behavioral problems stem from bored cats. Cats need to climb, need to scratch, and need small objects to play with. I only recommend adopting cats in pairs, so that they can keep each other entertained. Cats are not purely solitary. They get lonely, and lonely cats act out. Once again, your entire problem with cats as a species seems to stem from the fact that you don’t understand how cats express affection and it upsets you that they don’t do so the way that dogs do. Cats aren’t small dogs and cannot be expected to behave as such.
FELINE PROTECTION SQUAD
Dogs will also destroy shit IF YOU DON’T KEEP THEM PROPERLY STIMULATED.
The smarter the dog, the more destructive they tend to be when bored. So, don’t give me that shit of “dogs don’t do that.”
There is a reason it is a cultural touchstone that dogs chew up shoes or eat homework.
Also, dogs bite/snap in self-defense. Those teeth aren’t just for show.
So, yeah, don’t paint dogs as perfect obedient angels.
They’re animals just like cats and will act accordingly.
PS: Sorry for those that I could not get gifs to work on, those I couldn’t find a safe gif so I had to use screenshots, and those I found after reaching the image limit. I tried my best.
*Ramadan has passed, but I’m still leaving the greeting as a belated well wish to my lovely Muslim readers ^_^
