toysofdukeness deleted their cc/wiped their patreon and i just wanted to say, the impact that early access content has set for the sims (particularly sims 4) community has once again showed how much of a disappointment it is altogether. whether it's trackers in downloads, doxing people, broken/uninspired sets and now stealing other people's free content... to the point where we drive a member who has been here for a very long time... something's eventually got to give but it's exhausting seeing the lack of accountability of these creators time and time again. please don't give these people your money. it's unfortunate that we have to call them out on their bs. however it's incredibly clear that a lot of ea creators have no integrity and will truly do anything to make a quick buck

EDIT: the names of the accounts listed in toysofdukness’s patreon post are simsulani (hellosimsulani) and kd89 (kd89-3dstudios)

LOVE TRAIN INBOUND !! 🚂💨💨

This is inspired by @acuar-io !! Thank you for doing this and THANK YOU FOR THE TAG!! (even tho it didnt tag me properly 🤧)

Tumblr is silly and while I will tag ppl, I know not everyone will be properly tagged, so if u see this, skim thru the list for your name ESPECIALLY if your my mutual ! 🫶

To start off, I just wanna say that Fae (acuar-io) has some absolutely STUNNING sims, it's hard to exactly word it, but their sims are SUPER recognizable, and their saves (Snow flower, Cozy save, etc) are SO nicely edited, so aesthetically pleasing to the eyes 🫶😩

@oshinsimblr is the reason why I started storytelling (even before my simblr time) and why I try and find a story-related reason on why my sims/characters do certain things, her videos are also SO comforting and i love her lovesick series!!! and of course, @minimooberry the whole inspo for this simblr and why I render in blender!

@mattodore and @cinamun are AMAZING simblrs if u want rich storytelling and/or well-thought out characters, River has inspired me to really tear into my characters and give them more personality, and cina just genuinely makes such realistic characters and the tea is ALWAYS hot and simblr aside, she has very good takes >:P

@groovetrys and @circusjuney have been around on my blog and as my mutuals for a LONG time and they really are some of my biggest hype people, lori has an AMAZING legacy going on with her sim, Melody, and u should DEF check it out, and june makes the most amazing clown sims 🥹 theyre always so pretty and STUNNINGGGG

-> To add onto the above category, id also consider @miralure as one of my biggest hype ppl!!! Although they havent been around as long as june and lori, they always hype me up and it makes me stupid happy 😭 they make REALLY good lookbooks and i love their sim style SMMMM

if u dont know about @rebouks what are you DOING with your simblr-life, bc becca has some of the most human-feeling story/dialogue, i always get a stupid sappy smile on my face when i read her story posts

@jarakio has an AMAZING story called Girls with Guns and its prolly my fav story that ive read on simblr, the dialogue? amazing, the poses? amazing, the vibes? AMAZING, i'm ALWAYS hooked in whenever i see GwG pop up on my dash

@stellarfalls just HAD to be on this list are u kidding me????? Bree has a PHENOMENAL save called Valley, even tho there's no dialogue, each image and gif speaks more than words could, she's inspired me to kick up the quality of my posts and also start making gifs, I also consider her to be one of my biggest hype ppl, she always be coming in with the best compliments 🥹🫶

@torissims !!! She makes BEAUTIFUL posts, her blog is very yellow and orange and i LOVE IT, she pulls a lot of inspo from Studio Ghibli and even tho ive never seen any SG Movies, I can just see and feel the inspo, shes def underrated af 🥹

@amburgundy has BEAUTIFUL builds, and they dont just do TS4, they also make builds in other sims games!! (u did a phenomenal job with Madi's legacy house amber 🤝) I LOVE the clutter and they always looks so cozy 😭

@flovoid is another one of my hypemen LMFAOOO bro you and your tags literally make me so happy, i LOVE reading them. Flo makes AMAZING SIMS, and you should check out literally ALL of their sims, especially their sims Roo and Norman from Majima Land (first post under my Roo tag is me reacting to one of their posts with Roo and Norman, funniest introduction to a blog ever), Also their sim, Draco Almond??? He's got me tucking my hair behind my ear... 🫦🫦

@elderwisp has some of the most immaculate editing ive ever seen, the lighting, the vibes, the dialogue, the poses, the expressions, i be eating those posts up like im fine dining 😩😩

@changingplumbob is so chill, I love how much passion she has for her rotations, and her love for cats?? Perfect mutual to have, I also literally LOVE reading her behind the scenes posts, they're literally so funny 😭😭

@tricoufamily and @dejasenti99 make absolutely phenomenal renders, like if theres any renders on simblr that im gonna recognize immediately, its these two's renders, they're genuinely more HQ than my fucking eyes 😭😭

-> Also Nat (Missatan) makes incredibly HQ renders as well, these three are like... my biggest blender render inspos...

@buttertrait @missatan @virtualfolk @pearlean @claudtrait all have BEAUTIFUL sim styles, butter's is very unique, i know they arent really a sims 4 blog anymore but i ALWAYS recognize butter's sims when i see them on my dash and I genuinely love their sim style sm. Nat (Missatan) has SUCH a gorgeous sim style, you've heard of them hips dont lie, well her sims' lips dont lie 😩🫦 Virt (Virtualfolk) and Sam's (pearlean) sim styles are SO animated (if that makes sense), they're like eye-candy. Den (claudtrait), like Nat, has a sim style with the most luscious lips and poutiest faces ive ever seen and are just SOO pleasing to look at, like i just feel blessed in the eyes when i see their sims

@yukikocloud 's Apricot save and storytelling is incredibly reminiscent of Bree's posts, and I just LOVE looking at and reading her story posts, this post in particular just absolutely captivated me, I was drawn in and just get so giddy seeing the Apricot save pop up on my dash 🥹

@alientown @venriliz @nefarrilou @druidberries @machinegrl make STUNNINGGGGG occult (or cyber/robotic in Baja/Machinegrl's instance) sims. Nef always makes beautiful sims for their Cryptid "series", im just in AWE when i see their cryptids... Ven and Ana (alientown) both always make absolutely gorgeous alien sims and they also just have very unique/beautiful sim styles 😍 Baja's cyber girlies are just >>>>>>>>>>>>> I love her whole dystopian/cyber theme, its literally so good and so cool, and her Deadstars series? SO good. Alexis' (druidberries) elowen is so pretty, and her sim style, especially with occults, is just MWAH chefs kiss, literal eye candy

@swallowprettybird is just one of the sweetest people on simblr, I love reading what she has to say about mine and others' posts, and she makes amazingggg posts, I loved that one national geographic inspired post with the zebra, it was so well done

@softle0 makes some absolutely stunning builds, they always look so lived in, so cozy and I would ABSOLUTELY live in pretty much every single build they make

and honorable mentions to @droolski @felysline @pamsimmerstories @swiftviolets @weirdosalike @mushbop @calicosimgirl @shadowtrait and @seriallovertrait because I feel like they're all SO underrated, they're all passionate about their own stuff and I just love seeing their posts, and if you're seeing this, FOLLOW THEM 🫵🫵

Thank you Fae (acuar-io) once again for starting this train up, I love seeing stuff like this and it's so sweet to see what everyone has to say about one another, I may have spent 1 or 2 hours doing this, but it was INCREDIBLY well spent to be able to admire and appreciate all these people, them and every other simblr person, whether i follow them or not, deserve every last drop of love and appreciation genuinely

Speaking of tattoos!! (Alegría Commentary, inspired by elderwisp's and daniigh0ul's commentary and breakdowns of their own stories <3)

I wish I got a clearer angle of the butterfly that is part of Caruso's tattoo, but it is there along with all the lightning bolts lol. And Dulce has a butterfly on her shirt, so it was supposed to be a little symbolism that he was only going to be a hindrance to her. This was on their first date.

On Repeat - an OC tag

rules are pretty simple, pick as many (or as little) oc's as you'd like and find a song that you relate to them the most! feel free to mention why too! o and tag some more ppl too! that would be cool!

💛Atlas and Asher🩵

We fall through time Where love has always been defined

🩵Oh, I've been searching for your love for so long. 💛Oh I get lost inside my thoughts too much.

💛Will you believe in me so I can believe in us? 🩵Will you receive my dreams so I can feel their touch?

Thank you so much for the tag @elderwisp and @sirianasims !! ✨💖✨

This isn't a song that they would listen to (or likely even know), but it's one that reminds me of them every time I hear it. As for why.. I'll just let the lyrics speak for themselves 💖

I'm going to tag @havenroyals, @igotsnothing, @acidheaddd, @onestormeynight, @beachyserasims, @theosconfessions and anyone else that wants to give it a try!!

[sirianasims]

10 facts about me

Thanks for the tags, @theosconfessions @elderwisp and @jayveesim! ❤️ Sorry this took like 2-3 business months or something.

I always eat small pieces of candy, like gummy bears or Skittles/m&ms, in pairs and chew one in each side of my mouth for balance - they should preferably be the same colour too!

I can flip my upper eyelids inside out - it's a great way to get rid of annoying people.

I am AuDHD but wasn't diagnosed until I was 25.

I have a phobia of ballons (they're rubbery jump scares waiting to happen, I don't trust them!)

I once almost died because I didn't go to the hospital for 2 months - healthcare is free in Denmark, I just didn't want to be a bother.

When I first learned to speak English as a kid, I had a super dodgy accent for a while because the only two albums I owned were Michael Jackson and The Proclaimers.

I read roughly 800 words/minute and people always asked me why I didn't become an author, but I refused to write anything until two years ago when I started my story.

I used to play D&D but after a few years I had broken up with 3 of the 5 other members of my group and it got too awkward.

I've been on several road trips all around Europe in my friend's vintage car (Citroën DS Pallas from 1973 if you care).

I can never remember which side is left and which is right, so my brain just stalls for 2 seconds whenever I have to give or receive directions. Thankfully I don't have a driver's license.

I am going to also tag my lovelies @feroshgirlsims, @lynzishell, @zosa95, @igglemouse, and @beachyserasims who sent me asks for 3 random facts, because there's no way I can come up with 22 things 💀

[moonwoodhollow]

I was tagged by @quietwaters (thank you!!) for the "List 5 facts about a favorite sim of yours, and send this to 10 simblrs whose sims you adore ♥♥♥"-ask game and I'm choosing Suzette, a recent sim, that I created (and have not played yet, so this is all in my head)

She's an interior designer, who's known for her sophisticated interiors, that are almost impossible to afford, her clients include the Landgraab family (though she and Nancy clashed spectacularly during the contract and will probably never speak to each other again), the Fengs, the Altos and Judith Ward for who she's designed more than 3 spaces already.

She has a thing for musicians and had a brief affair with Thorne Bailey. Once she found out, that his wife was the actual mastermind behind his music she ended it immediately.

She's currently living in a rather small but luxurious space in Windenburg, that I just finished decorating, but I think she might need a bigger place in San My, maybe one of those penthouses ... I will have to think about this!

In my mind, she's got 2 siblings and she's the oldest. They have a pretty good relationship, although there are a few tensions, especially concerning Suzette's success in comparison to that of her siblings. However, this is mostly their parents' fault as they can't stop comparing their children... so yeah family reunions are not her favourite activity!

I created her solely for the purpose of finally using that hair on someone, but I not so unexpectedly fell in love with her.

That was fun! I'll tag @mellowtrait, @acuar-io, @cinamun, @theplottdump, @nectar-cellar

@bobnewbie, @retrotrait, @simmenycricket, @elderwisp & @simsofstrawberryhill

(don't feel pressured to do this btw! but I'd love to know more about your sims!)

oc deep dive with Jude Turner

What uncommon/common fear do they have? If you ask him, he'll try to convince you it's something stupid like bicycles or his teacher's pinky toe after the time she wore sandals to class and it poked out over the strap, but actually he's afraid of his own thoughts and dying alone. Speaking of, anyone single? Wanna make out for a while?

Do they have any pet peeves? People who take everything so seriously. Painful bores. People who are obsessed with World War 2

What are 3 items you can find in their bedroom? Rugby boots with mud still in the studs and getting all over the hardwood floor. Charcoal dust and mounds of sketchbooks, three coffee cups he neglected to return to the kitchen two weeks ago.

What do they notice first in a person? Something in their eye that tells him they know how to have fun and get up to trouble. A sense of humour, a nice mouth and teeth.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how high is their pain tolerance? 5. Average, baby!

Do they go into fight or flight mode when under pressure? Flight. Oh things are hard? Brb deleting my socials again. Forgot to text back. Oh? Did you email me? Sorry I've been super busy...

Do they come from a big family/are they a family person? It's him and Ivy and their parents really. He's not a family person with regards to his fathers side (they are weird) or his mother's Dublin family. He yearns for the peaceful days at great aunt Maureen's and her four adult children....

What animal represents them best? Monkey.

What is a smell that they dislike? Tequila, Weed, Vomit, in that order.

Have they broken any bones? Of course. He got his hands on a skateboard at 10 and immediately tripped down a flight of concrete steps and shattered his arm bone. Being in a cast was cool though, everyone like, signed it and shit.

How would a stranger likely describe them? Wild, manic, troublesome (words taken directly from parent teacher reports)

Are they a night owl or a morning bird? Surprisingly, a morning person. He got used to being up early to get Ivy ready for school when his mom started going to work at 7:30. He stays up late sometimes, sure, but his inner alarm clock always has him wide awake at 7.

What is a flavor they hate and a flavor they love? Jude is not picky, he's an eater, but don't come at him with those big, wet, brown mushrooms they give you with your hotel breakfast. Not in a million years. Flavours he loves is broad, so I'll choose his ice cream preferences. Pistachio, sea salt, raspberry, cherry.

Do they have any hobbies? Drawing, rugby, playstation, hanging out with friends.

Boom, surprise birthday party! How do they react to surprises? He is overjoyed! You guys did this for me? Whaaaaat?

Do they like to wear jewelry? Have you seen his cute lil earrings?

Do they have neat or messy handwriting? Neat enough, c'mon, he's an artiste. His pen control is exemplary

What are two emotions they feel the most? Boredom and melancholy (in private only, thanks)

Do they have a favorite fabric? Plain old cotton. None of that poly-whatever shit. He doesn't need to be the yellow-sweat-stains guy.

What kind of accent do they have? The weirdest Dublin/American hybrid. At this stage of the story he's pretty much just an Irish guy who says a couple of vowels in a weird-ish way.

This was fun! I'll tag @lynzishell @elderwisp @earthmoonz @stillgotme @rebouks @daniigh0ul @scrapplesims

[elderwisp]

it’s so hilarious to me that ea creators want to make their cc a business but are so bad at it. you treat your “customers” like shit (have them PAY for free BG meshes, complain on twitter, etc). you can’t even be bothered to not regurgitate the same ideas that have been so stretched out, not to mention most of the meshes are broken, hardly work on a sim with curvier bodies. like idfk man, if you’re gonna monetize… sorry, if you’re gonna take advantage of people’s money, then people absolutely have the right to criticize.

[elderwisp]

ea actually fucking hates me

[elderwisp]

accounts like simblr fairy and simblr qotd need to be protected at all costs

[elderwisp]

how it feels to not update ur game:

[elderwisp]

HELP MY MODS FOLDER IS 95GB

[elderwisp]

sometimes i see the hottest takes and by hottest i mean a bit elitist takes on tumblr and it honestly puts me in such a bad headspace but then i remember everyone wants to be seen everyone wants to be heard but ! i should also just curate my space better and be apart of that change i wanna see

[elderwisp]

this is what it feels like when i’m diving into the minds of my oc's:

[elderwisp]

huh, who woulda thought that removing the sims 3 file from my sims 4 mods folder would make things run so much faster

[elderwisp]

also before i forget! i am incredibly grateful of everyone who tagged me in the simblr appreciation train! i honestly sit around kicking my feet whenever i see stuff like that! i wanted to take a second to spotlight some folks that have been so so supportive, endlessly creative and inspiring as well!
