What an absolute, GORGEOUS time I'm having playing with Juno👽

Can't wait to see what @surely-sims & @ice-creamforbreakfast have next in store, maybe a Juno Birch inspired bedroom set/add-on?

[simtleman]

The STUN 'IN' MART & UFO home (Download Tray Files & CC)

So @surely-sims and @ice-creamforbreakfast made our jaws drop once again with their incredible Juno Birch CC Set, sure... but now you have to actually spend the time building a lot so you can start your new save file with the STUNNING Juno Birch and you simply can't be bothered. Is that so? Well, fear not my friend because here I am to make your life easier and allow you to jump straight into gameplay! Introducing the STUN 'IN' MART & UFO home, a residential lot designed specifically for none other than the LEGEND, the ICON that it is Juno Birch:

Since she landed on planet Earth she thought it'd be best for her to go undercover as a human, 1960s wife but hey, she also needed to make some simoleons... so why the heck not open a supermarket? Also, finding a parking spot in Ordinary Springs is incredibly difficult these days so she had no choice but to stunningly park her UFO home right on top of it. YES, THAT'S HAPPENING! Here are some screenshots:

Minimart:

Aaaand PAUSE! If you go in the cereal and premade meals aisle, you'll find a suspicious back door leading to a shady, dark room with a ladder that seems to be taking you to a basement:

It's a prison cell for Joy Despret, YES THAT'S HAPPENING! In case that "No Joy Desprets" sign in the front yard goes unnoticed.

Back patio:

UFO home, kitchen:

Bedroom:

Dining room/interior garden a.k.a. The Green Plumbob Room:

Living room:

Here you can also find some floorplant screenshots, so you can get an idea where everything is located.

Basement:

Ground floor:

UFO home:

Before you go ahead and download it into your game, a few IMPORTANT disclaimers:

The lot is a 20x15. I built it on the bottom left lot from the Parched Prospect neighborhood in Oasis Springs (which for me is Ordinary Springs because I play in a save file that brings back worlds & townies from TS2).

I used items from several expansions and packs (listed in screenshot below), so if you don't own them those items might be replaced with others.

This lot is set as Residential.

Like all my builds, this is a heavily CC based lot. If you don't have a powerful PC, it might get laggy while trying to play with it.

Regarding the CC, I do not own nor take credit from any item included within this lot. All credit goes to their amazing creators, especially @surely-sims & @ice-creamforbreakfast whose content I used almost exclusively to build this one.

The .ZIP file (2.35 GB) includes two folders: one for the Tray Files and another one with all the CC. I'm 100% sure all the CC I used is already public for everyone; if it's not, it's been definitely longer than three weeks since it has all been in my game and you (the CC creator) shouldn't be putting content behind permanent paywalls to begin with ;)

I did use bb.moveobjects on while building and have playtested it, so it should be fully functional. Let me know if otherwise.

That's all for me! Please let me know your thoughts as I'm slightly insecure about this lot because it is a lot wackier than my regular 1920s historical save file kinda style lol. Also, if you run into any issues do not hesitate to let me know and I'll try to help best I can :)

PLEASE do tag me on your screenshots if you share them here on Tumblr. I'd love to see what you guys make with it!

PAUSE! Just your regular yet STUNNING 1960s human wife doing some grocery shopping, YES THAT'S HAPPENING!

Absolutely IN LOVE with the amazing, out of this world new Juno Birch Set by @surely-sims and @ice-creamforbreakfast. The talent these two have blows me away every-single-time.

I'll be uploading this brand new minimart/UFO home lot I created specially for this set very soon, so stay tuned!

BARBARA O'BABS hair salon & laundromat (Download Tray Files & CC)

Hello friends, long time no see! I'm about to move to Ireland within three weeks and to say I've been busy would be quite an understatement. However, I can always find myself some time to play The Sims 4 (especially when a new EP comes out) and I just HAD to try this new Businesses & Hobbies one, how are you guys enjoying it so far?

I created this beautiful mess of a woman named Barbara Salomon who smokes like a chimney and I'm absolutely OBSESSED with how stunning she looks:

Anyway, I decided she was gonna be a hairdresser and created a 1950s inspired hair salon & laundromant (because hey, why shouldn't those two mingle? lol) for her to thrive as a businesswoman. And so today, I bring you this charming little lot I've spent way too much time on for you to enjoy as well! Here are some screenshots:

Front:

Back:

Hair salon:

Laundromat:

Upstairs apartment:

Before you go ahead and download it into your game, a few IMPORTANT disclaimers:

The lot is a 20x15. I built it on the Old Torget House lot from the new world of Nordhaven.

I used items from several expansions and packs (sorry I couldn't list them below, I played offline while building it and taking the screenshots), so if you don't own them those items might be replaced with others.

This lot is set as Residential.

Like all my builds, this is a heavily CC based lot. If you don't have a powerful PC, it might get laggy while trying to play with it.

Regarding the CC, I do not own nor take credit from any item included within this lot. All credit goes to their amazing creators.

The .ZIP file (2.21 GB) includes two folders: one for the Tray Files and another one with all the CC. I'm 100% sure all the CC I used is already public for everyone; if it's not, it's been definitely longer than three weeks since it has all been in my game and you (the CC creator) shouldn't be putting content behind permanent paywalls to begin with ;)

I did use bb.moveobjects on while building and have playtested it, so it should be fully functional. Let me know if otherwise.

That's all for me! This is only the third piece of content I share for others to download, so if you run into any kind of issues do not hesitate to let me know and I'll try to help best I can :)

If you do like it, please make sure to like this post (heck, maybe even comment on it if you feel like it!) and please, please, PLEASE do tag me on your screenshots if you share them here on Tumblr. I'd love to see what you guys make with it!

A little 1930s, Marlene Dietrich gothic & BDSM vibe never hurt nobody

[simtleman]

Guess what I'm doing! The minute they went available on the Epic Games app I immediately bought them... take my money, EA!

Y'all have no idea what this means for a 90s kid like me, I'm smiling side to side. The amount of hours my 9 years old self spent on this game, the lore, the storytelling and imagination it brought on me... the memories this is unblocking is UNCANNY.

Cancel all my appointments, please! You won't be seeing much of me in a couple of days lol

[simtleman]

So I've been quite busy lately (I'm moving to Ireland! Sounds exiting but trust me, the process of moving across the ocean ain't fun) and wasn't able to post these screenshots I took the other day, but here they finally are!

The lovely Anne (aka @surely-sims) was kind enough to send me the AMAZING Bioshock Deco Set she made alongside @doctorsimcraft & @lumenniveus a day prior to its release and I got to live my best 1920s roaring life with it. If you follow my Tumblr at all, you know I play almost NOTHING but 1920s historical save files... so to say this was a gift from heaven to me would be an understatement lol

I'm simply speechless with the talent of these three out of this world talented mod creators, truly. Every set they release is better than the last and they continue to amaze me, every-single-time. Thank you for your incredible and constant contribution to this community I love so much!

If you take a look further at some of the swatches for the wall art pieces that come with the set you'll notice a few of them that are very, very special to me:

I'm proud to say I made them myself and honored to see @surely-sims was kind enough to included them as swatches. I know nothing about modding and wouldn't know how to help any other way, so this is my way of giving back. Thank you Anne for allowing me to be a tiny little part of this set somehow.

The only problem now is they have left us wanting more, right?

[simtleman]

Okay, so I'd be liying if I say I didn't roll my eyes when the Life & Death EP was announced... I'm not an occult kinda simmer so I felt like this gorgeous 1920s short hairstyle was going to be the only thing about it I'd be interested in.

However, after building myself a mansion that took me way too long and investing some time in setting up the right enviroment for my gameplay, I feel like I can confidently say this might be one of the best EP we've gotten since Cottage Living.

The foggy, mysterious, dark academia vibe Ravenwood is showered in is totally up my alley. I even found myself enjoying the gameplay itself (which doesn't really happen very often in TS4 EPs for me, to be honest) with the whole bucket list thing, the Alice plotline and the delicious references to TS2. Yes, we old school simmers appreciate details like that.

Plus (and I know this is one of the reasons people are upset about, because they feel like EA is milking us once again... which of course they are lol), seems to me like this EP works pretty well with the Paranormal stuff pack if you have it and serves for a great storyline.

What do you guys think, are you enjoying it so far? I'm glad EA finally seems to be listening to us and actually putting some effort in the releases... let's hope the strike continues on!

[simtleman]

Happy Halloween, gorgeous!

Yes, that's happening! Seems to me like it's become a tradition for me to wish you all a very happy, spooky season with a Juno Birch inspired post and, since I won't be able to post it tomorrow, here it is!

Outfit by @surely-sims (who by the way and along with @doctorsimcraft made THE BEST simblreen EVER, so thank you very much for that!) and pose by @helgatisha❤️

I don't care if you build, gameplay, story tell, create custom content -- or all of the above. If you're over the age of 30 -- reblog!

El Dorado Cabaret & Casino (Download Tray Files & CC)

Yes, I'm back to playing TS4 and that means I'm back to building. I created a sim called Octavia who used to be an exotic dancer (until she married money and started the black widow challenge), so I needed to have a Generic lot that worked as a cabaret/casino for gameplay purposes and I decided to build it from scratch. I'm now sharing it with you guys in case you also need something similar for your vintage 1920s/30s/40s save file.

The exterior is obviously inspired by the infamous El Dorado Berlin while the interior I kinda reimagined myself. Here are some screenshots:

Tickets counter:

Main lounge:

Stage area:

Showgirl's dressing room:

Sky view:

Before you go ahead and download it into your game, a few IMPORTANT disclaimers:

The lot is a 30x20. I built it on Magnolia Promenade.

I used items from a few expansions and packs (listed below), so if you don't own them those items might be replaced with others.

This lot is designed to work as a Stripclub, therefore you'll be needing the Wicked Whims mod in order to obtain the pole and have your sims being able to dance for money.

Like all my builds, this is a heavily CC based lot. If you don't have a powerful PC, it might get laggy while trying to play with it.

Regarding the CC, I do not own nor take credit from any item included within this lot. All credit goes to their amazing creators.

The .ZIP file (2.76 GB) includes two folders: one for the Tray Files and another one with all the CC. I'm 100% sure all the CC I used is already public for everyone; if it's not, it's been definitely longer than three weeks since it has all been in my game and you (the CC creator) shouldn't be putting content behind permanent paywalls to begin with ;)

I did use bb.moveobjects on while building and have playtested it, so it should be fully functional. Let me know if otherwise.

Like I said before, the lot is currently set as Generic so I could turn it into a Stripclub with Wicked Whims and have my burlesque sims make some simoleons while dancing. Wicked Whims is not included within the CC folder, you'll have to download it and install it yourself.

That's all for me! This is only the second piece of content I share for others to download, so if you run into any kind of issues do not hesitate to let me know and I'll try to help best I can :)

If you do like it, please make sure to like this post (heck, maybe even comment on it if you feel like it!) and please, please, PLEASE do tag me on your screenshots if you share them here on Tumblr. I'd love to see what you guys make with it!

Back to basics

So marriage number three didn't work out the way I expected, huh? That SOB left me out of the will after all— Octavia thought to herself while she smoked a cig and looked around her shabby, old apartment now that the Goths had kicked her out of the family mansion.

— God, this place is depressing...— she whispered.

— Well, I guess it's time to start looking for husband number four.

(I am OBSESSED with just how versatile @surely-sims' Theo Driving Scarf is and how much it fits my ol' Hollywood aesthetic! Plus, it seems like we'll be getting wills with the new Life and Death expansion, yay! Can't wait to add more depth to my black widow's gameplays)

[simtleman]

What do you mean you can't set me up for another filler appointment? I barely had any last time, darling!

(Yes, I was and still am on a TS4 hiatus.... I uninstalled the game and my 60GB+ Mods folder completely, even. But I saw @surely-sims and @ice-creamforbreakfast's collection and I just HAD to try it. I had to. Too gorgeous to resist! So I reinstalled the game and here are some screenshots to prove it lol. Okay then, back to the cave I came from!)

[simtleman]

So I've been hiding in the caves for ages. Why, you might ask? I am just so fed up with TS4 issues and bugs I realised I wasn't enjoying playing anymore, so for the first time in almost a decade I uninstalled it. I will of course go back to it eventually since The Sims has always been, still is and will continue to be my favorite game ever... but I feel like I need some time away from it.

What have I been up to? Well, far too busy in real life to play many games tbh, but the Hogwarts Legacy summer update was the perfect excuse to go back to gaming for a bit. Was the update disappointing? You bet. But I'd be liying if I say I'm not having fun taking screenshots with the new photo mode. Here are some of them:

There's nothing like a nice, warm cup of tea in the Slytherin common room when it's calm and quite right before going to bed.

Just because you're a student doesn't mean you shouldn't give a helping hand in the kitchen when needed.

Don't mind my girl Astoria, she's just chilling while being fabulous at her room of requirements:

I know this is not the usual content you'd normally see in my blog, but I hope there are some Harry Potter fans among my followers who will appreciate it!

Be safe <3
