#no not Dropbox either

[silkendandelion]

We try not to get political around here but in light of recent events, I gotta say something—

I am begging you to keep these companies accountable for their censorship bull.

Implementing AI tools to scan your stuff (no I don’t care what their “reason” is), not allowing sexual or graphic content to be shared is unacceptable in terms of free speech and the right to privacy.

Look at me: the only thing these companies understand is clicks bc clicks = money. You are gonna protect your wellbeing by:

1. Downloading all your fanfiction onto your PC hard drive, get it off google docs, yes all of it.

2. Download a document editor that is not Microsoft Office either, there are free ones who respect your privacy, I use LibreOffice for PC. Now you have an actual hardline editor that does not require internet and does not log your activity. Your words are yours, finally.

3. You’re gonna get an encrypted email service, there are free ones, I like Proton bc my mailing list is small but there are others.

4. Make that email the one attached to your fanfic hosting website of choice, get google out of your business

5. Make a mailing list of your alpha/beta readers, and exchange documents in emails like the olden days bc it’s one of the few forms of communication that can actually be private and protected. But do not send with, do not send to—a Google Mail address.

6. Don’t ever. Touch. Google Docs. Again. Dont send your documents with Google Mail. Don’t do your research on Google.com. Don’t give them the clicks, don’t let their ads get runtime, tank their traffic, hit them where it hurts

If they don’t give us what we want, we don’t use their service. Period.

I have a headcanon that my courier is from a small Islamic town/community near shady sands. I'm not sure whether the ncr would consider them tribals, bc they have a distinct culture outside of that of the mainstream ncr citizens, but they aren't indigenous (iirc the great khans are similar, bc they came from vault dwellers, and I doubt the vault dwellers in question were actually turkic or mongolian given how small that diaspora is). Do you have any thoughts on what a tribal actually is or means in postwar america?

Canonically, Shady Sands was founded by one group of former inhabitants of Vault 15, and other groups from the vault became the Khans, Jackals, and Vipers.

As far as how the label "tribal" is applied in canon, it's not incredibly clear. When Caesar, House, or the NCR speak of "tribals" it's often perjorative, referring to groups they deem uncivilized; more broadly, it's frequently used to refer to any distinct cultural group that lacks formal government and is self-sufficient.

Anthropologically speaking, a tribe is a group linked by social, economic, religious, or blood ties, with a common culture and dialect—which covers a range of post-war societies and could very well encompass the society you described. Of course, there are still certain connotations associated with the terms (especially "tribal") both irl and in the game that you may want to avoid, especially if you're incorporating Islam and potentially MENA/MENASA diaspora.

I don't mean to suggest you wouldn't do your due diligence, and you've obviously given this a lot of thought, but since we're talking about how it relates to canon and the precedents Fallout sets wrt its fictional tribes range from thoughtless to abhorrent, you may prefer to refer to your society by a different term than to adopt the baggage that canon has attached to tribe.

Josh Sawyer has explained that, in Honest Hearts at least, the tribes were meant to be made up of descendents of diverse ethnic backgrounds, and I imagine that was likely the intent in the other games. However (and to his credit, JS owns up to this in the linked post), the end result still played into a lot of Western stereotypes of Indigenous Peoples, particularly Indigenous Peoples of North America.

Of course the problems didn't begin or end with Honest Hearts—from New Vegas' Blackfoots of Arizona (not to be confused with the irl Blackfoot Nation, whose traditional lands comprise what is now Alberta, Canada, and Montana, U.S.) to the Whachutu tribals of Peoria (from Fallout Tactics), whose name is a reference to the fictional African tribe called the Wachootoo from Ace Ventura, there are a ton of examples of how not to handle a topic like this in a culturally sensitive/respectful way.

I'm glad that the dev team at Obsidian is taking criticism of these depictions to heart and involving more sensitivity readers, but unfortunately there's a lot of shit baked into the Fallout canon that anyone making derivative works has to navigate with extreme care.

(Also, I'd love to hear more about your courier and their community!)

It’s crazy that people seem to hate saving money. I have about 7 of my dad’s old shirts that I wear to sleep, he’s had them for about three years before I stole them.

Saving money isn’t a bad thing

no literally you're so right because I swear some people just enjoy getting ripped off n scammed by constantly blowing money on micro trends, expensive cosmetics when they haven't even finished the cosmetics they already own, expensive hair care when they don't need that level of care because they don't have the target concerns like extreme damage so it's a waste, having 20 different body washes in the shower like.. I promise you're not gonna pass away if you use up what you have before buying something new and anyone who looks down on someone for actually wearing their clothes for longevity n getting their money's worth isn't somebody you wanna be around anyway

[ylove-bandaesthetics]

Hey my lovelies! I’m so sorry for being so inactive here! I’m honestly trying to get a new phone because this one is not allowing me to do shit anymore, it doesn’t even allow the apps that I use to edit my aesthetics to work, it keeps lagging like crazy, keeps telling me that my storage is full when I basically deleted almost everything already and lately I can’t even save pictures anymore. It’s super old overall and I’ve been overdue for an upgrade so soon I PROMISE I will come to post more aesthetics! I even have a list of aesthetic treats I’ve been dying to work on as well but I’m unable to which pisses me off! Everything on this thing has been failing on me a lot and hopefully you guys can see this post cuz tumblr has been uber messy with me here too! Also January was definitely not good to me, she was a bitch and I’m just glad it’s over now! Hello Febuary! AND HELLO WAKANDA FOREVER! I’m srsly not fucking ready like omg I’m literally getting anxiety just seeing it on display on the disney + app! Just like…omg wish me luck because I already feel my eyes getting watery…😭😭

[ranger-kellyn]

ugh GOD i'm going fucking insane!!!!!!! i just want to work between devices and have it be easy and well-organized!!!!!!!!! is that really so much to ask!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dabihawksluvr]

Gonna go through my Sims4 mods and re-download a few. Planning on getting a USB to store them all on, my current laptop sucks and I don't wanna lose the mods I've gathered up over months of browsing Tumblr/Patreon/Pinterest and Sims Resource sites.

Especially my MHA stuff, I still wanna have my husbando DabiHawks hehe <3

[rum-inspector]

So frustrating

It is so much easier to organize stuff on computer

But editing is easier and faster on the phone

Even if you try to use folders on phone some apps won't even show them and make you scroll through gallery instead anyway??

But for some fucking reason my gaming PC takes forever to launch an editor and even with hotkeys it is chunkier and slower not to mention I have to sit on the computer while phone editing I can do it anywhere

Ahajahahahajja

LINK TO ALL THE IMAGES AS A TUMBLR POST

(in case you don't wanna use Dropbox)

The Wittebane lore document is complete !! I put my heart and soul into it, so I hope you guys enjoy it ! Also like I wrote on the cover, other headcanons are valid too ! I tried my best to fill in the gaps in the timeline with some of my own stuff while explaining why I did it a certain way, but don't let that stop you from having your own interpretations too :) Anyway, here's the link ! The print only version is meant to be printed as shown in the gif here, on double-sided pages so the PDF won't look in order when you read it, but the read only version is meant to be read online, I also included a folder with the images separated so you can also read it on mobile if you'd like :)

You can print it at home and give away to friends as much as you want, just please don't sell it (I won't be selling it either since it contains a lot of canon screenshots from the show)

the thing with putting my hair into pigtails is that it’s cute and it gets my hair off my neck, both because of the heat and also the sensory issues. but also i look even more like a 9 year old than i already do with my hair down

Optional autonomy for Pool, Poker and Mahjong

Love these group activity objects but find that Sims get annoying around them sometimes? I got some sanity help for you :) With this global mod, you can toggle autonomy off at whim and back on whenever you want.

I enjoy my sims playing poker and pool, but sometimes having these objects in a house or on a business gets annoying because the Sims are so obsessed to them. But I don't want to stop autonomy all the time because I do like them sometimes. So I came up with the idea of giving these objects an autonomy attribute, and making the interactions check what the attribute says. That way we can toggle autonomy on or off, depending on if we want the Sim to be able to use it in that moment :)

I am sure I will add more objects in future, but for now I have applied this to poker tables, pool tables, and mahjong tables. May not work on custom objects, it depends on how they were made. If you have one it's not working for, let me know and I can record a video of how one would fix it. I don't know of any right now so don't have an example to show it on :)

Download all on Dropbox (SFS is down :() Poker table only | Pool table only | Mahjong table only

Conflicts: None known. Will conflict with anything that alters the guardian bhavs of either of these objects, as well as menus. Use HCDU+ to check, it uses text lists so HCDU will not find everything.

Credits: Thank you @kashmiresims for help in testing and general encouragement to get this finished :) Thank you @simnopke for helping me spot the stupid mistake that was making the poker table not work.

Me trying to get people into my music like "well this band has so much deep hidden lore that you can only find some of it by scrolling back over a decade on their twitter or in dropbox audio files from live shows, but here's a brief 600 word outline of the most basic lore! No? Okay what about this guy. There's a couple of different flowcharts to help you with listening order, honestly I've no idea how many albums there are I don't want to count, bu--- alright, not that either, hm. I've got gay werewolves?"

hi, please take your downloads off of curseforge, a company who has funded the IDF in support of the war on Palestinians. you can use alternatives like dropbox or simfileshare.

Hi! I follow EA's policies and recommendations regarding the creation and distribution of custom content like many other creators 😥

Unfortunately, curseforge is the only EA affiliated website where we can upload/download cc in a safe way. I hope that in the future, thanks to user complaints, we can have other alternatives 🙏

I don't want to support any type of violence either, but the only way to do that effectively would be to stop playing/buying the sims while they are affiliated with companies that allegedly finance the war.

In our daily lives all of us inevitably use services from other corporations that may be connected to the conflict (food, electronics, transport...). It is very difficult to separate ourselves from everything... but I believe that everyone is doing the best they can to help in their own ways, like you spreading awareness 😇

Maybe this is not the answer you were looking for and it may disappoint you, but I hope you can respect me as much as I respect you 🤍

I am very sorry that I cannot meet your expectations, but my way of helping others is by getting directly involved in social causes close to my location (teaching children, going to demonstrations, collaborating with associations...), not only stopping of using a website. I hope you can understand me 😔

PS: Please, don't send me again controversial messages because this is a social network that I use only for fun, not to give my personal opinion about sensitive topics. I am not a public figure, I am an anonymous creator who just wants to enjoy her hobby 💔
