I keep seeing people call the Trump administration shit like “schizophrenic” and “psychotic” and can we fucking not do this please???? schizophrenics and people with psychosis have a biological and neurological basis for their behavior and beliefs. there is no biological basis for being racist and sexist and a monster. schizophrenics and ppl with psychosis are innocent. you can’t beat bigotry with more bigotry

the thing about "i could do that" is that what people mean is that they can copy the finished product because the work of coming up with something and making it has already been done for them. every little creative decision has already been made and put into creating something, so "doing the same thing" is only doing the work of physically making something. but art doesn't just appear out of thin air. every little decision someone makes is part of the creative process. if you "can just do that" you would be doing it instead of just saying it. because the most essential part of making a piece of art is actually making it. you have to come up with it, decide to make it, and make it, for it to even exist. you can look at someone's works and think that on a technical level you can Do The Same Thing but that's not really true. because the work of unique creative choices for a particular piece you're looking at has already been done. some pieces are hard to make because they're very complex on a technical level, but every single piece that's created requires the essential work of coming up with it, making choices that are unique to you as an artist, and actually making the piece

Jesus fucking Christ the way these assholes JUMP to racism the second they feel slighted I cant- Mud huts?? Really?!? Im not even surprised, just irritated. Its no surprise these bozos think all of Africa, any area in Africa, is just mudhuts in a barren expanse.

Very disappointed in the Sims community and their very vocal distain towards Black Simmers for begging for a Caribbean/African themed world, especially because they're literally SO MANY American/European themed worlds...like there's even 3 Asian/2 Latinx themed worlds and we barely have 1, EVEN THE DAMN IMAGINARY STAR WARS WORLD BUT NO...we get edges, hairs, SOME clothing, but not a world? Like the closest thing we have to anything Caribbean is the St.Feu household that Maxis created, and even then that's JUST A HOUSEHOLD ON THE GALLERY. Stop silencing BLACK Simmers, like y'all show y'all asses every time we speak our opinions or real shit. A whole account was suspended because of the mass reporting just because a Black Simmer asked to be represented...I hate how even in the big year of 2025, over 25 years of The Sims, it's never enough being a Black Simmer.

Anyways eat the fucking rich and crack their skulls. Dont let this moment fizzle out and die. Dont let them scare you into avoiding doing something, anything.

So to catch you up to speed

Luigi Mangione is an innocent man who has not been confirmed to have been involved in any crime.

We have police documents confirming he was not DNA tested or fingerprinted, and confirmation no usable DNA or fingerprints were recovered at the crime scene due to incomplete prints and immense DNA contamination of New Yorks streets.

No evidence has linked him to the crime.

No facial recognition has even remotely come close to identifying the cctv suspects face as that of Luigi. His own family and friends do not see a resemblance. Most people agree the features in the cctv do not match the very well documented features of Luigi Mangione.

Luigi Mangione has no history of violence nor with firearms. He is a vegan pacifist with no history of mental illness and an aversion to killing even bugs.

He is still only a SUSPECT and all involvement in any crimes are merely ALLEGED at this time. Alleged by the most corrupt police force in the entire nation; the NYPD who do more organized crime than they've ever stopped.

Luigi Mangione's attorneys confirmed they have been shown absolutely nothing that even places Luigi at the scene of the crime.

People have repeatedly tried to recreate the entire timeline of events and found it is not physically possible to do what was alleged in the time frame police gave. Especially dubious for Luigi Mangione to have done given his recent, crippling back injury.

Luigi Mangione in his own words has said police planted evidence on him and are not being honest about his arrest or what he had on him at the time.

There is no body cam footage of Luigi's arrest.

There is no autopsy report for Brian Thompson.

Luigi has so far been:

Stripped of his hat, jacket and shoes and forced to walk in the cold in December wearing wet socks.

Forced to urinate on himself where police then took and published humiliation photos of him.

He was then stripped of his shirt pants and socks and put in a blue psychiatric gown and strapped to a chair inmates called "the torture chair" and left for prolonged periods of time. To the point the entire inmate population at the prison protested in anger.

He was slammed unto a brick wall, choked, and shoved by various police officers for no reason.

Was marched through nyc at gunpoint by officers with military firearms, forced to wear chains

Was called a murderer by the mayor of NYC on national television.

Was then placed in solitary confinement for weeks. Something extremely damaging psychologically to be exposed to for even just a few days. Something usually reserved for cannibals.

He is now being forced to sleep on the floor despite again, a crippling back injury.

Again, he has not even had trial yet. He is an innocent man by the very definition of the law. He has nothing tying him to any crime. And even the crime itself was a nobody being shot in a city where nobodies are shot everyday, seven days a week. And those shooters don't get this treatment. Cannibals don't get this treatment. Serial killers don't get this treatment. Why are they doing this? Because we entered an oligarchy and they want people who are rich to matter more than people who are not. The NO ONE, no name, insignificant person that Brian THOMPSON always was and WILL ALWAYS BE is more important because of his net worth, to the fascist oligarchy we've entered into, than the innocent man, data scientist and robotics engineer with a promising future that is Luigi Mangione.

The NYPD doesn't want him to be innocent. They are torturing him gleefully and postponing his trial because they know he's innocent. They just want to scare the public into understanding that the ultra rich, even those who's names will never be remembered as anything other than markings on a never visited tombstone, are the only persons who matter now. Not yours. Never yours. You're poor. They'll torture you without a trial too. Your life means nothing to them. Your children dying in school shootings means nothing to them. Pinning a crime on an innocent man they can beat to scare the public out of class consciousness is the only thing that matters to them now. Depose them.

Make notes. Keep this in your mind. Fascism relies on you forgetting and being complacent. It relies on being able to lie and spin the narrative to what it needs. Dont let Donald Trump get away with this.

Okay so we have this huge problem with forgetting about everything that’s happened by the time the next election rolls around so I’d like to keep a running list of things as they’re happening to help remind us when the 2026 midterms roll around. And please add to this if I’ve missed anything.

January 2025:

Donald Trump pardoned 1500 people who participated in the insurrection of January 6th, including those who violently assaulted and nearly killed police officers.

Donald Trump has declared that trans and non-binary people don’t exist.

I’ll keep adding to this list as new things come up and, again, please feel free to add anything I’ve missed. I know that in this world of constant news it’s easy to forget, so let’s give our future selves a little help!

[cats-n-witchcraft]

Americans, I know we're going through it, but why do I keep seeing stuff like "I'm sorry world, we'll fix this in 4 years"? But like... what do you mean "4 years"?

We have midterm in 2026, yearly local elections, special elections, primaries, etc.

We have the right (dare I say responsibility) to contact our representatives and the right to organize and protest if/when they don't listen.

We need to find a meaningful way to educate people about propaganda and media literacy. We need to convince people to be willing to educate themselves. The habit of only checking in to politics on presidential election years needs broken.

I understand how defeating today feels, but we, especially those of us who could conceivably make it through these four years unscathed, need to stop this proactive surrender.

How to simulate a populated world with none of the lag in the Sims 3.

In The Sims 3, non-playable characters, or NPCs, are Sims you typically don't plan to control or play in your game. This approach is ideal for players who may not enjoy rotational gameplay or for those who use it but don't intend to control every Sim in the world.

These NPCs serve the purpose of enriching your virtual world, enhancing its vibrancy, and contributing to a more dynamic and immersive gameplay experience.

By implementing these methods, you can expand your Sims 3 world, infusing it with life and stories, all while minimizing any significant impact on performance.

For a while, I grappled with a conundrum: my Sims 3 world was empty yet performed smoothly, thanks to a small number of households. I then attempted to address the emptiness by transitioning to larger worlds with more households, hoping for both a lively environment and reasonable performance. Unfortunately, neither option yielded the results I desired.

In this dilemma, I found a middle ground. I realized that I didn't have a deep attachment to all the households in my world, except for the ones I was actively playing with. What truly mattered to me was how realistic these Sims looked. The thought of spending hours creating a new family from scratch for every game didn't appeal to me.

So, I decided to take a different approach. Instead of managing numerous families, I opted to curate a select group of households, giving them my undivided attention and enhancing their homes with detailed decorations. This allowed me to avoid the performance lag associated with a high number of highly embellished households.

The only remaining challenge was simulating a vibrant and bustling world around these chosen households. To achieve this, I needed to employ some clever techniques to make the game believe the population was manageable even as I introduced more Sims to the world.

This system establishes a hierarchy of NPC households, Official Households, and custom role-generated Sims. Custom role-generated Sims are meticulously detailed NPCs without residential lots. They serve to enrich gameplay and storytelling and are exclusively found on the lots you've designated for them. They can be assigned to specific days and hours throughout the week. While they are less of a priority in terms of management, they play a crucial role in breathing life into your world. Moreover, they are less resource-intensive in your save file, a key element in tricking the game's engine into maintaining a manageable SP level. These Sims can still grow in significance to your household. For instance, I role-played a Sim winning a free daycare in Shang Simla. They left everything behind to start a new life there and frequently visited a neighborhood coffee shop, where they befriended a "regular" who needed housing. In exchange for rent, this regular helped my Sim run the daycare.

NPC households, on the other hand, are detailed NPCs with less detailed residential homes. They primarily exist to propel gameplay and storytelling throughout the world, with the potential to become more pivotal as your storytelling evolves. These Sims fall into the second-tier priority category for management.

Official Households are highly detailed NPCs with intricately designed homes. You're more likely to visit these homes and interact with these Sims. They represent the highest tier of management priority since the game simultaneously dictates their actions while you decide what your household is doing. This arrangement allows for the official household tier to be smaller and more manageable, leading to a smoother and more seamless gameplay experience.

Each of my Sims needs to harmonize with the overall aesthetic I desire for them. It's quite jarring to have a group of 5-6 Sims in my game with realistic proportions in terms of head size, hand size, body proportions, and other details, only to encounter the rest of the Sims who appear with cartoonish features, disproportionate heads, and peculiar body shapes. However, if you're like me, and you prioritize realistic and distinctive features for your Sims, the number of Sims you're either modifying or creating must be manageable.

NPC Households:

The core of constructing NPCs in your world should exclusively cater to your storytelling and gameplay themes, adhering to the overarching aesthetic. In this case, the homes of these Sims need not be fully developed. You should aim to place 8 Sims in each household. As long as the house contains 8 beds, a bathroom, a kitchen, and a living room with a TV for them to unwind, all the Sims can satisfy their needs and remain alive in the world. If necessary, you could expand this concept by creating an empty or beautifully decorated lot with flora that seamlessly fits the world's theme and add a basement leading to the NPC's houses. This way, they would simply disappear from the lot, serving as an option when you're unable to construct a convincing home that matches the world's theme. For example, in my cyberpunk world, I established a trailer park comprised of small crate trailer homes, which provided all the essentials for my NPC Sims while blending seamlessly into the world's ambiance. I also decorated the area with various "low-income" objects and street constructions to enhance its realism. If you can integrate the NPC houses into your world, that's ideal, but if not, there are creative ways to manipulate their housing to create a rabbithole-like experience.

A residence for 8 teenage boys.

A residence for 8 teenage girls.

Teenagers will populate your high schools and various community lots that they naturally visit, such as cafes, arcades, parks, pools, libraries, and more. These Sims are crucial if your active household includes teens; you'll require a diverse array of teen NPCs for your Sims to engage with.

A residence for 8 children, either in a Nanny home or Adoption home, serves the dual purpose of expanding your household with children and contributing to the overall realism of your world. Children and toddlers can be relatively scarce, so you can choose to create 4 girls and 4 boys or, alternatively, have 8 children of each gender distributed across two different Nanny/Adoption homes.

Additionally, you may want to have:

A residence for 8 single men.

A residence for 8 single women.

These additional households are crucial for creating a more diverse and substantial pool of potential friends, enemies, lovers, ex-lovers, and various other relationships outside of the official households you've established in your world, especially if you follow my system for official households.

You should also consider adding:

A group of 8 cashiers for the Savvier Seller/Merchant mod to manage modded registers that NRAAS Register does not recognize, which you will have to manually assign.

Occult sims can also be custom role-generated to effectively manage resource space in your world.

Celebrities, also generated through custom roles, can be placed in upscale clubs, fancy restaurants, city hall, the film studio, the radio station (for interviews), and other relevant locations to provide a more immersive experience of potentially encountering a 5-star celebrity in your world, rather than randomly finding them anywhere. You can also use disguises like hats and scarves to interact with these sims.

Include at least 1 landlord in your world to simulate your money overhaul system, creating a monthly rent system in the game. This landlord can be the wealthiest person in your world or any well off sim.

Employ 8 food staff to manage your establishments, providing both regular and quirky staff for a fun, multiple young adult roommate scenario.

Offical Households:

Official Households can encompass sims you're more inclined to rotate and play with, households you've revamped to better fit your narrative, or sims you intend to interact with in your story. While you might have a general idea of how you want these sims to relate to your household, be prepared to adapt if, for example, two sims meant to fall in love aren't compatible. You can then explore interactions with other established sims or NPCs in the world. In most cases, these sims will occupy the remaining vacant households in the world.

I choose to fill all the empty households because when I move my household, it's typically to a new world. In my role-play style, moving to a bigger house also implies moving to a "better" world. If my sim's generation doesn't move, their children or grandchildren will. As they transition to young adults (YAs), they often move in with another established YA sim, sharing a house as roommates. By that point, they've built enough relationships in the world to facilitate such arrangements.

This approach also circumvents the EA StoryProgression system, which might otherwise introduce randomly generated sims throughout your playthrough because all the houses are already occupied. Register-modified sims with NRAAS Register do not have traditional homes; they return to either an NPC door or back to the bin when not at work. This not only enhances performance but also extends the longevity of your savefile.

I find that having 10-12 official households strikes the right balance for me, considering the number of objects I use on my lots in my world. It's worth noting that the total number of objects matters less for game performance than the number of households the game engine has to manage in a world.

In a larger world with over 20 households and heavily decorated residential lots, you might experience lag, potentially a substantial amount. While this could be more manageable in smaller to medium-sized worlds, I still prefer to stick to 10-12 households, regardless of the world's size.

It's important to remember that the goal isn't just to have a certain number of households to create a livable world. The number of sims within those households and the level of detail you put into those sims are far more critical for your role-play style in the long run. This ensures an enjoyable gameplay experience with smooth performance, even as your save file progresses through many generations.

Personally, I prefer encountering sims I've spent time on, considered their basic personalities, and developed attachments to. This is more engaging and enriches the storytelling experience compared to random sims I haven't personally tweaked and have no connection with in my story. In that case, they might as well be deco sims, which do serve a purpose. If deco sims are more useful than randomly generated townies, it might signal an issue in that scenario.

This approach also opens up more lot sizes that might have been designated for residential lots to become community lots. This, in turn, allows me to create a more expansive and unique world. I can focus on providing a wide range of activities for all these Sims instead of just having numerous filled houses with featureless Sims and townies. Now, I can design more functional shops, eateries, and other unconventional yet practical lots for which I would have struggled to find space on the map. These lots might include a sprawling camping and hiking area surrounded by dense forests, a cozy yoga studio situated atop a bustling bodega in the heart of the city, a mini golf course, a hip-hop dance studio for TikTok enthusiasts, and even a PC gaming cafe.

A note about toddlers:

I aim to have at least four toddlers in four of these households. To avoid potential routing lag associated with toddlers, I utilize the NRAAS GoHere method to create a functional daycare. With this setup, toddlers from out of town will automatically populate the daycare lot, eliminating the need to create numerous toddlers in the world.

Toddlers, much like horses, can introduce routing lag into the game. To simulate a high toddler population without causing this issue, I rely on the NRAAS GoHere Daycare method. It treats the assigned daycare worker as if the household is actively played. Just as when you play a career, this method generates and sends random toddlers from outside your town to your daycare lot. As a result, even with four active toddlers in the world, I can befriend up to 12 toddlers to invite to birthday parties, all without the long-term routing lag.

To maintain a fully populated world with minimal lag and crashes, you might consider adopting my general play style, which involves having 10-12 official households. However, you might wonder how to keep your world lively under these conditions, especially when using the Ultimate Careers mod. In a world with 10-12 households, it's unlikely they can fill all the available jobs created by the mod.

This part of the process can be either enjoyable or a bit tedious. Before I start playing my chosen household, I go through each and every official household I've created and assign them their respective jobs. I've already decorated their homes and crafted their personalities with their career paths in mind, so I have a good idea of who is going to do what.

While this method ensures consistency in your storytelling and gameplay, it may not fill every possible Rabbithole job provided by the Ultimate Careers mod. Let's explore the various custom roles you can simulate to address this issue:

City Hall: If you haven't already appointed a mayor, now is the time to do so. By using MC, you can assign them the role of a level 7 career within the City Hall RH. This Sim will still frequent the lot but will now use the designated objects to enhance their job performance. Please follow this method for all other job roles within the City Hall, such as the Coffee Runner, City Council Member, and any related careers, Local Representative, Co-worker (a random employee who sits in the cubicle offices with your Sim, working to boost their performance).

Mausoleum: Consider converting this lot into a funeral home, separate from the actual graveyard. You can host events on this lot to attend funerals for Sims who have recently passed away, and whom you got to know during your gameplay. Alternatively, you can transform it into a morgue using the RH rug. In either case, here are some role options: Undertaker, Morgue Doctor, Morgue Assistant, Funeral Home Director, Admin Assistant.

Abandoned Warehouse: For trap houses or crack houses, think about adding drug dealers and drug users. For sketchy nightclubs and bars, consider adding "Bodyguards." To keep the kingpin's identity mysterious for roleplay purposes, you can simply give them the title of "The Boss."

Bistros: Most of the roles within bistros will be occupied by the Food Staff NPC household you've created. However, for a more vibrant dining experience, consider adding regular customers at varying days and hours, creating a bustling atmosphere. Combine this with deco Sims for added immersion.

Diners: Similar to bistros, many of these roles will be filled by the Food Staff NPC household. If you've created eight Sims in this category, you can place two Sims in each dining lot, potentially offering four dining spots in your world. You can also generate more servers, busboys, managers, and coworkers for these lots. Alternatively, you can use deco Sims, which are less resource-intensive and require minimal role assignment.

As a pro tip, you may have noticed that when your Sim gets a new job, a random Sim is automatically assigned as their boss. If there are no unemployed Sims in your world, the game generates a Sim to take on this role. These Sims are created to give players the feeling that their world is more populated than it actually is. You can use a similar approach. If your Sim lands a job at one of these open careers, a random Sim will be generated. You can then avoid creating a manager role for these lots or using a deco Sim, which can enhance performance. Simply delete the manager deco Sim if your Sim secures a job at one of these lots.

The actual movie theater lot doesn't need the RH rug on it. With mods and store content, you can create an authentic movie theater experience. For the viewing shows options that come with the RH, you can role-play that these are Broadway shows or musicals.

Here are some more role-generated ideas for your Sims 3 world:

Homeless Sims: Simulate a transient homeless population that visits certain lots at random days and times. You can also create a makeshift homeless camp or tent area in your world.

Movie Theater Staff: Role-play employees of movie theaters, including ticket sellers, ushers, and concession stand workers.

Fashion Retail Staff: Create roles for sales associates, store managers, and fashion consultants in your retail stores.

Museum Guides and Curators: Populate your museums with knowledgeable guides and curators to enhance the museum experience.

Regular Townies: Add random townies to bars, clubs, and other hangout spots to create a lively atmosphere.

Townies for Libraries and Gyms: Populate libraries and gyms with townies to make these community lots feel more active.

Librarian: Appoint a librarian to manage the library lot and assist visitors.

Hotel and Motel Staff: Role-play roles like receptionists, bellhops, and housekeeping staff at hotels and motels.

Camp Counselors and Staff: Create camp counselors and staff for summer camps and outdoor recreational lots.

Hikers and Campers: Add hikers and campers to nature lots, hiking trails, and campgrounds.

Park Ranger: Role-play park rangers in natural parks to ensure a safe and well-maintained environment.

Seasonal Characters: Include Santa Claus and elves for holiday-themed events and the Easter Bunny for seasonal festivities and photo opportunities.

Activists: Environmental activists can be located outside lots under construction or in nature reserves to advocate for environmental causes.

Surfers and Beachgoers: Populate beach lots with surfers, beach bums, and tourists to create a vibrant beach atmosphere.

Tourists and Sightseers: Place tourists and sightseers in resort, hotel, and motel community lots to give your world a tourist-friendly vibe.

These additional roles can add depth and realism to your Sims 3 world and enhance your gameplay experience.

You can maintain a smaller town size by utilizing the custom role generator, deco sims, and crowd cheats to create a more populated and vibrant sim world without overloading your save file or affecting story progression.

Efficiently simulating "placeholder" sims gives the illusion of a bustling world without causing performance issues. During gameplay, you might find yourself forming relationships with these assigned sims and even incorporating them into your household when it suits your storyline. They can seamlessly become integral to your gameplay.

This approach allows you to create elaborately decorated worlds with high-quality sims while avoiding lag and ensuring your world doesn't feel empty.

Keep in mind the scheduling of these sims' arrivals on lots. Just like in real life, sims should have different shifts and visit places at different times to prevent simultaneous gatherings that might lead to a freeze lag in the morning.

Feel free to adapt this system to your preferences and enjoy your Simming experience!

And brush your teeth whenever. There is no set time to brush your teeth! Do not fall into the trap that its like past 8 pm and now its too late. Brush your teeth at least twice a day. Your teeth will thank you I promise.

It's a lot healthier to go for a daily walk than to sign up for a gym membership you won't be using because you hate that kind of exercise. It's a lot healthier to eat a frozen meal than to skip a meal because you were too tired to cook something healthy. It's a lot healthier to take a quick shower than to procrastinate an elaborate routine for days. Don't aim so high that you won't be hitting anything!
