Plant of the Day

Tuesday 13 June 2023

By the base of this stone barn wall there is a patch of Soleirolia soleirolii (baby's tears, mind your own business) enjoying growing in the shady, damp conditions. The masses of tiny leaves clothe the slender spreading stems that root as they run, forming a dense deep-pile carpet. This plant is often grown as a houseplant but will tolerate winter frosts when the leaves are killed but will recover to grow vigorously again in the spring.

Mind Your Own Business Legacy Challenge

Love making simoleons? Want more of a challenge hitting the motherlode? Like the sound of kaching? Do you want to play with parts of the game you haven’t touched in a while? This business legacy challenge is just for you!

I present to you the Mind Your Own Business Legacy Challenge, a ten-generation legacy that revolves around being an entrepreneur.

Basic Rules:

Heirs are NOT allowed to join any career paths through the “Find Job” option. Must make money through other means.

Spouses are allowed part-time jobs, but the main focus must be to help with the business when applicable.

Must begin legacy with initial starting funds only. Money cheats can NOT be used in this challenge. Rags to Riches rules are allowed if you choose.

Can live in any lot and any world you please.

Every generation must complete their aspirations, max out specified skills and all rules listed.

Normal lifespan is encouraged but not necessary.

Each generation is represented by a color, this is optional but can add to the fun!

This challenge does use a good amount of pack, but I wanted to make a challenge with aspects of the game I haven’t played with fully or in a long time. The packs included are Get to Work, Spa Day, Dine Out, City Living, Cats & Dogs, Jungle Adventure, Get Famous, Eco Lifestyle, and Horse Ranch.

I was wondering why there's no one did this- Maeglin's experience and his role in (biased) historical narrative are so perfect to produce some porn fic around being kidnapped and raped and tortured and punished by Orcs or even other elves!

So happy to mob Maeglin the little meo...mole! Please read all of the warnings!
