I am a woman.

I was born and I live in Chile.

And today is International Woman's Day.

And when I went to do breakfast, the first news I saw was of a woman who died after falling from the 10th floor of an apartment. She filed for domestic violence. They did arrested her abuser thanks to the DNA on her nails, as she tried to defend herself.

This is sadly not the only instance of harm towards woman today.

There's still abuse, violence in any form (physical, psychological, sexual, etc), prejudices and just straight up injustice towards woman.

And that kind of stuff is happening ALL OVER THE WORLD. AND THERE ARE CASES WE AREN'T AWARE OF IT YET.

Being a woman is hard. And that's a massive understatement.

Being a human living in this society is hard, but it is hard towards those considered minorities.

Especially women. Even worse for those woman who are also POC, LGBTQ+ (Trans woman are woman, after all), disabled in any shape of form, suffering of mental illness, and those who are currently living in places and countries where they treat woman horribly.

I really do wish for a future where women aren't afraid.

But... It sounds utopic, and I know that violence will always exist.

I'll admit. I feel bad celebrating a date that was supposed to celebrate Women's Rights and Justice for Women... When there is still injustice towards women in this world. Especially me living in Chile, when there's a lot of violence and prejudices done to woman in other countries. I feel shame with the idea of celebrating when there's still injustice towards woman in the world. Even in my own country.

So please...

Listen, help and protect your fellow women. Your family (either biological, legal or even your found family), your friends, your acquaintances, etc. And if you can, listen help other fellow women, even if you don't know them personally.

Support victims, bring justice, and protect women.

[Be Somewhere Plays]

[It starts showcasing a computer lab in "Real Life", at night. It shows the computers being connected via LAN and wires]

[Then, it shows the wires turning into an actual map, of the "InnerSpace" of the computers and the "Intranet" of the computer lab. And the computers are also connecting to the "Internet".]

[And then it shows more to the Internet, it shows more about it, being more like an actual city, roads, and the programs are actually sentient]

[And it finally shows a close-up of Feroma. She's "offline", with her eyes closed. But then she shows her going "online", with her eyes opening with a determined eye expression, while not showing expression on her mouth. And the camera gets a bit farer of her, and it shows the rest of the Virus Deleters]

________

Yeah. I got inspired by the MM Megamix fan animation...

I got daydreamy about my project "Virus Deleter". I'm currently deciding to make it into a Webcomic.

While this decision is was not new, for a moment I thought on making Virus Deleter into a 3D Animation (inspired by a ruby series. If you know you know) but I couldn't make it since my current computer would explode.

So yeah, I'll be planning more about the comic aspect more. But I need to practice more on how to do it. I'm not that experienced on making comics, apart of some cases.

I really want to make "Virus Deleter". I want to tell the story of a antivirus battling virus and protecting the virtual world.

Gov. Murphy Announces Four Appointments to ELEC

After controversial changes pushed for by Democratic lawmakers that resulted in previous members resigning, Gov. Phil Murphy announced the appointment of four new members to the state’s Election Law Enforcement Commission (ELEC) June 15. The new commission members are Tom Prol, Ryan Peters, Norma Evans, and Jon-Henry Barr. In keeping with past traditions of ELEC, there are even number of…

Recommended Mods for The Sims 1

This is my archive for tracking the Sims 1 mods I’ve added to my game. Since I started playing Sims 1 again recently, I will continue to update this list as I discover new mods and remove those that don’t work for me. Please check back frequently for updates!

If you want to play Sims 1 like me on a Windows 11 computer, you can check out my blog post on that here. 😀

MONEY & JOB MODS

Online bank computer

This computer allows Sims to pay their bills online, as well as find a job and chat online - no more waiting for the newspaper or visitors!

No Forced Career Change at Level 10

Usually, if you reach Level 10 of any career, you only get to stay at Level 10 for a short time before the game forces you into a different career path at a lower level. This mod eliminates that and allows your sim to keep the job that they worked hard for.

Call Work

With this phone plugin you will have the option to call work and tell them you are sick and can't go to work. If you do that you get the day off and they can't fire you for staying at home. You can stay home as long as you like, just make the call every day.

MOTIVES & SKILLS

Need Decay Crystal Mod

Turn this magic crystal ON, and need decay stops completely. You can still increase or decrease a need if you DO something, though. What this mod stops is the need DECAY. For example, if you work out on the exercise machine, your Energy and Hygiene will decrease, just as they always do when you use the exercise machine. But needs won't decay simply from time passing. It looks like a blue crystal on a gold base and can be found in the Decorative - Sculpture section of the catalog.

Party Plant

Looks like a party plant. Maximises all motives for all Sims on the lot, except for Social, which is adjusted just enough to stop unhappiness. Perfect for making friends and having babies. No menu, just delete when you've had enough.

Link: https://simlogical.com/sl/downloads/motives/ijpartyplant.zip

Party Plant (Visitors Only)

Same as Party Plant above, but acts on visitors only. Visitors are counted as anyone who does not live permanently on the lot, so this would act on NPC's and friends who visit.

Motives Maxer Outhouse

Outhouse (requires Makin' Magic EP). It satisfies ALL needs, but not when all motives are already high.

Zappers

Objects that get rid of certain objects and visitors from the lot. None of these kill the Sim or destroy the object permanently, they work by waiting until the thing or person shows up then deleting that particular instance. That means the same thing might show up again and be zapped again - until you remove the zapper.

Relationship Mods

No More Relationship Decay

When you make friends in The Sims, you have to keep up with them, because your relationship declines gradually over time. This mod stops that from happening, so you no longer need to maintain relationships.

I use Version 2: Eliminate Relationship Decay AND More Walk-Bys, which also means more people from your neighborhood will pass your lots.

Baby Gives Social

This mod allows your sims' social need to increase when interacting with a baby.

Directory: Put this in The Sims\GameData\Objects

Flirt with and Compliment Friends

In the unmodded game, the Flirt interaction disappears when your sim's relationship with another sim is over 60, and Compliment/Admire disappears when the relationship is over 40. This mod changes that; Flirt and Compliment will still be available all the way up to 100.

Joke with Friends

In an unmodded, game, sims lose the ability to tell a joke to someone when their relationship goes over 70. So you can only tell jokes to acquaintances and casual friends. nThe Joke with Friends Mod lets you tell jokes all the way up to a relationship level of 100.

Families Are Friends Mod

In the unmodded game, families are created with a relationship of 20; this mod makes newly created families have a relationship of 50. This mod affects only NEWLY CREATED families, so families that were made before you installed it will not be changed.

Creators can make any type of media they want (Yes, this includes any kind of media, no matter how niche. As long as it’s creative, it’s allowed)

You can do as few or as many prompts as you like

You can complete these prompts in tandem with any other event or other prompts (such as in combination with Bad Things Happen Bingo, @randowhump’s Birthday Whump Event, AU-gust, etc.)

DO NOT use ai. I can’t be entirely sure what is or isn’t, but I trust you to at least put some type of effort in your creations. These events are no fun otherwise!

Tag & trigger warn your content accordingly

NSFW is allowed, however because I’m currently a minor, I will not look at or reblog it (Again, tag and label it!)

Tag your works as #augustofwhump and #augustofwhump2024. In addition to that, you can also tag this account — @augustofwhump. (Do not @ me in NSFW works.) I’ll try to reblog whatever I can!

I’m really excited (and nervous) to do this and I know it’s a bit early to post these prompts but whatever — it just means more time for people to work on prompts if they choose to do this event, right?

[shockmagnum]

"Boo."

Can I help you?

[cak3o]

Okay I’ve seen this blog for a while now and I can’t help but feel curious…you got any Ice man Headcanons? :3

YES!! Iceman is so fun to write hehe

Iceman acts a bit older than most of the other bots. He's no grandpa, but a lot of them end up going to him for advice. He's usually found taking naps and playing board games with the others in the living room. However, he's very bad at video games.

The robot he's most similar to in the 1st group is Elec.

Ice is extremely relaxed in social situations, it's pretty hard to fluster him. (has a really good poker face) But- similar to cut he enjoys a bit of teasing, his most common victim is Fire.

Ice is very well respected amongst the Light bots for his calm and collected attitude. If he had the drive for it, he could very well be the leader, but he'd much rather be support. He spends a lot of time with Guts.

Bomb talks to Ice a lot about things that bother him. Elec goes to Ice for any sort of social advice. Ice gives out a lot of advice and he never minds it, he always finds it fun.

Iceman was built to spend a lot of time alone far in the Arctic, he gets lonely but remembering home always makes him feel better. I like to write that he was built around the idea of being "independent"
