Mini-rant: People's struggles are NOT your monetization source.

Now normally I'm very pro-early access and supportive of early access creators and their content, however...I've gotta rant for a second. Here's the deal. My sister's married to a woman. I have multiple friends who are gay, bi, trans, etc. I've had students trust me as their teacher and come out to me privately because they felt I was a safe person. These are people's struggles. I've seen how my queer friends have struggled with others not accepting them for who they are. They are NOT your source of money during PRIDE. I saw someone who released a "pride pose pack" and then locked it behind a 3 week early access paywall so people who don't pay them can't use it for a majority of PRIDE.

This isn't like people who don't plan for Simblreen, or mis-calculate the holiday season and put stuff behind early access at the wrong time during a holiday. No. This is a month celebrating people's personal journey and struggles. Now again, I'm all for early access. But if you're GONNA put PRIDE content behind an early access wall, DON'T be a COCONUT and keep people from using it during the MONTH it's INTENDED to be used. PLAN AHEAD, OR RELEASE IT FOR FREE.

Because this isn't a HOLIDAY. This is a celebration of people's hard-fought battle for their rights. AND THEY DESERVE TO NOT BE MONETIZED, THANK YOU VERY FUCKING MUCH. -steps off soap box-

Hello everyone! My name is Ryan, I’m a twenty three year old trans masculine photographer/activist living in Baltimore, Maryland and I’m starting this fundraiser to help me pay to legally get my name changed and top surgery. As many of you know, most gender affirming surgeries are not covered by insurance providers, and the majority of my family is not supportive of my transition at all and have cut off all contact with me. I’ve always made it a point of mine, to exist freely and unapologetically as a Black queer man regardless of the consequences. If I am able to get even a portion of this funded, it will honestly change my life. I know this is a tough time for everyone right now, if you are unable to donate, please help me spread the word.

I bring you all my black sims back together to tell you we all deserve respect, no matter the color of our skin. ✊🏿

Disney challenge▹ by @simvicii

Rules: Pick your favorite Disney character, draw inspiration from said character and create a sim. It can be anything from toddler to elder, male or female. Just have fun! Make sure to tag us or use #disneychallenge so we can see what you come up with. ❤️

Okay, so thank you @hwedhel for tagging me in this I absolutely had a blast revisiting one of my favorite badasses of all time!

Merida

Merida is the top princess. Well my top princess. She's fearless, ambitious and when she sets her mind on anything she does whatever it takes to reach her goals. She is so inspiring and a huge success. Personally, we need more prince and princesses like her.

I tried to modernize her and I think I did a pretty good job at keeping her as herself. I also wanted to try and recreate her look from when her mother dressed her up for her 'speed dating' party. I never realized how hard it would be to find curly hair from the gods.

We need more curly hair. K tanks.

I'm tagging @merokia & @uglysim and everyone else! This was a fun challenge and I want to see more princesses, please ♡
