#simblr question

💙Fragen an mich! 💙

Thank you very much for your questions @sugarcream-sims , @edmunderson. 🥰💙💙💙

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Mein Liebling ist Jaelen. ❤️‍🔥

Seine Lieblingsfarbe ist Orange und sein Lieblingslied ist "A Thousand Years" von Christina Perri. Fan Fact: es ist unser Hochzeitslied. Sein Mitgefühl und liebevoller Umgang mit der Familie ist eine Wohltat.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Punkt 1

Jaelen ist ein Hundenarr, er vergöttert Hunde und könnte den ganzen Tag nur über Hunde sprechen. Ach ja, wir haben auch zwei Hunde, Lyna und Rory. Rory habe ich ihm zu unserer Hochzeit geschenkt. Lyna lebte schon bei uns und ist ein paar Jahre älter.

Punkt 2

Mit Jaelen wird es nie langweilig! Ihm fällt immer etwas ein, bei uns ist es zB. Brauch, jedes Jahr etwas zu machen, was er sich wünscht. Meist verkleiden wir uns dabei und lassen Erinnerungsbilder von unserem Fotografen Nick machen. Jaelen hat den Spitznamen "Prinz", denn er ist mein süßer Prinz.

Punkt 3

Wenn ich wieder mit mir selbst zu kämpfen habe, ist er da und bringt mich zum Lachen. Auch unsere Freunde schätzen ihn für seine lebensfrohe Art. Bei ihm fühlt man sich einfach wohl.

Punkt 4

Er kümmert sich immer um seine Familie. Egal, ob ich oder die Kleine mal krank sind oder bei etwas Hilfe brauchen. Jaelen ist sofort zur Stelle.

Wenn es eins gibt, das ich an ihm liebe, dann ist es seine Art mich um den Finger zu wickeln. Den Dackelblick hat er voll drauf und noch so einiges anderes, hehe.

Punkt 5

Und wofür ich ihm immer noch dankbar bin, ist, dass er uns niemals aufgegeben hat. Selbst an dem schwersten Tag meines Lebens, als die Ängste mich wieder runter zogen, stand er an meiner Seite und reichte mir die Hand. Er ist und bleibt meine große Liebe. 🧡💙

I have ein question for any Simblr that uses banners for their story updates. Ok actually more than ein question, but "ein" is fun to say. Anyway.

1. When I use a banner at the top of my post, the post no longer shows up on my own dash and Tumblr acts like it doesn't exist but other people can see it.

2. When I use a banner at the bottom of my post, there is a 50/50 chance it'll disappear from my dash but sometimes it doesn't. What is up with that? Does Tumblr see me using the same image over and over as spam? How come it doesn't do that for anyone else?

3. What dimensions do you make your banners? Maybe the size I chose is wrecking Tumblr's smooth lil brain?

4. I don't have a fourth question, I just wanted to say hi. 😊

I am currently on Gen 5 of The Fengs but it’s been awhile, the Freeman’s are my babies & the save file is under construction. 😅😭😂

Feel free to respond with specifics in hashtags or comments. Mine is normally generation 2 max because I can't stay focused on one family for too long...smh (clearly based on my sporadic posts on my simblr)...

GROWING PAINS: A MINI LEGACY CHALLENGE by @ka1omi

i would first like to thank you amazing creators such as @thatssojordy @oshinsimblr @sashasspace @cocoelleansims @themintsimmer @alycemichelleee @ellesimsworld @simelune & many more for your amazing content and mods that make this game what it is.

@thatssojordy recently dropped a new mod called Growing Pains, which can be (and definitely should be) used in this challenge, and having immediately used it in game, it is honestly amazing and what inspired me to create this challenge. i've also been watching legacy LPs and just recently watched Inside Out 2 so this was born. it's nothing crazy, only 5 generations that can either be used in order or used as standalone challenges.

all packs are not required, however, they will enhance your gameplay as well as different mods that have been listed in the google doc. as this is my first ever legacy challenge i have created, please feel free to let me know on anything i can improve on or any changes that you would like to see or if you have any questions.

please please please tag me if you end up using this challenge, i would absolutely love to see all your beautiful sims and storylines!

THE OFFICIAL TAGS FOR THIS CHALLENGE ARE: #GPLegacy or #GrowingPainsLC

Talk to my mom about that | Next

[daydreamingdrawerette]

My handle is from my early Tumblr years (2010) and stems from my made-up "feminized" version of "drawer", as I like to draw (literally translated from the Dutch "tekenares"). And during the time I created my Tumblr, I was a slacky uni student who only thought about partying + anime + memes + fashion and admired the quirky-hipster and boho fashion aesthetics that were in style back then, so I guess that's why I associated myself with a daydreamer.

Years later, I renamed my handle to "SprummerHeart" which is a word play on chillwave band "Summer Heart" and the Spring-Summer transition was my fave time of the year (now I have mixed feelings about this period due to suffering a bit from grass pollen allergies since my late 20s)

When I rediscovered The Sims 2 in 2021 (a.k.a. the crisis that must not be named), I revamped this account to share my TS2 screenshots and keep up with the TS2 CC creators I like. I renamed my handle back to "daydreamingdrawerette" because I got back into drawing and my head was full of TS2 storytelling inspiration. So yeah, having TS2 as hyperfocus kept me sane during an era of uncertainty and limited activites.

But in daily life atm, I'm not a daydreamer most of the time and am actually hypervigilant instead. Thinking out loud, I could change my handle to "hypervigilantsimmerette" or the nickname I use on Sim forums and Discord, but it breaks links and tags on Tumblr 🤔.

✿ The Home Sweet Home Legacy Challenge ✿

Info ✿

view on google docs

Use the tag #HSHLegacy so I can see your posts!!

If there are any rules that you don’t vibe with, just skip over them!

Some of the rules are centered around gameplay and some are more story-based!

You don’t have to complete aspirations or max out careers if you don’t want to, unless it’s otherwise specified in the generation’s rules!

Play with any lifespan you prefer.

Read one generation ahead to get all of the information you need!

Mods are allowed and encouraged; especially ones that make the game more realistic. I’ve linked a couple mods in some generations that can add to the gameplay! 

If you have the more traits in cas mod, pick whatever extra traits you think would fit your sim!

Rules for the generations under the cut ✿

GENERATION ONE ✿

You were raised in the city by strict parents who pushed you to be the best student in school. Despite your ambitious nature you hated the fact that you had no autonomy or free time. When you became a young adult you packed up your belongings, your pet and your limited funds and you moved to the countryside. Your cottage is rundown and outdated…it’s going to take a lot of work (and money) to make it a home. You quickly realize you might not actually be cut out for this life, but you are too stubborn and proud to give up and move back in with your parents.

Traits: Squeamish, Ambitious, High Maintenance

Aspiration: Country Caretaker OR Freelance Botanist

Career: Start with a part time job and/or odd jobs until your sim ages up into an adult, then settle into a full time job of your choice. To make additional money, you can also sell harvestables from your garden or your farm animals (if you want to go down that route!)

Starting Out: Start in Henford-on-Bagley with your pet in a small, rundown cottage with 2-3 bedrooms. You can use money cheats at this point, but remember: small rundown cottage…don’t use those extra funds for nice appliances!! When your house is done, set your funds to 450.

Rules: 

Your lot must have the ‘simple living’ lot trait

Reach level 5 in: Handiness, Cooking and Gardening

Befriend a few locals

Meet and fall in love with an outdoorsy sim with a large tight knit family 

Spend every holiday with your partner’s family, and have a solid relationship with most (if not all) of them

Have 2 kids

Take a vacation for every sim’s birthday (if you can’t afford it, throw a birthday party on a public lot instead)

Renovate the cottage over time (get new appliances, wallpaper/flooring, etc.)

Optional Rules:

Play with the ‘off the grid’ lot trait

Max out Handiness, Cooking and/or Gardening

Make the sim’s parents and make them have a negative relationship 

GENERATION TWO ✿

You grew up in a small, quiet town. After hearing about your parent’s childhood in the city, you were inspired to give it a try. You say goodbye to your loving family and set out for San Myshuno. You find an apartment and a part time job, then you get a few roommates to help with the bills. When you are faced with an accidental pregnancy, your roommates rally in support.

Traits: Loyal, Creative, Slob

Aspiration: City Native OR Painter Extraordinaire

Career: Max out the Retail part time job before quitting and selling paintings full time

Starting Out: Move into an apartment in San Myshuno with 2-3 roommates (you can use the roommate feature but I recommend actually having them in the household!)

Rules:

Max the painting skill

Have Game Night, or something similar, once a week with your roomies

Have an accidental pregnancy after a one night stand (if your sim can’t become pregnant and the other sim can, move the baby into your household when they’re born!)

Raise your kid as a single parent (with the help of your roomies)

Once your child becomes a teen, move out into your own place (it could be in San Myshuno or another world)

Marry as an elder

Optional Rules: 

As an elder, marry the sim you had a one night stand with (that ultimately resulted in the birth of your child)

Become famous (because of your paintings)

GENERATION THREE ✿

Just as the expression goes, it took a village to raise you. You were a wild, rebellious child with a love for athletics. Even though you were surrounded by love as a kid (not just from your biological family, but from your parent’s roommates) you always wanted to have siblings. You end up marrying one of your childhood best friends and you settle down in a quiet neighborhood.

Traits: Family Oriented, Hot Headed, Athletic

Aspiration: Big Happy Family

Career: Athletic 

Starting Out: Move into a house in a world of your choice with your partner.

Rules:

Max the parenting skill and the athletic skill

Have 4 children

Reach the summit of Mt. Komorebi at some point in your life

Be a hands-on parent: play with your kids, build them a treehouse, throw birthday parties, be as involved as possible in their lives

Go through rough patches with your spouse due to your anger issues

Eventually decide to get a divorce after trying to make it work (or if you have RPO, you can opt for separation instead)

You and your ex-spouse must live on the same lot and continue to raise your kids together

Sleep in your workout shed in the backyard

Optional Rules:

Remarry your ex-spouse

Reach level 5 of the handiness skill

GENERATION FOUR ✿

Although you and your siblings were loved by your parents, the living situation after their divorce was not ideal. Because of that, you vowed to never get married. You head off to university immediately after graduation and start on your path toward success.

Traits: Ambitious, Noncommittal, Genius

Aspiration: Fabulously Wealthy OR Academic

Career: Business OR Politics

Starting Out: Enroll in University and move into a dorm

Rules:

Max the research and debate skill, and the logic skill

Reach the top of your career

Get the best possible grades throughout your life

Have at least two romantic relationships at all times…you are never faithful to one sim

Have two kids with two different partners

(Hesitantly) become official with one of your flings and move in together

When your partner proposes, reject them and have them move out

Go on a post-breakup trip with your kids to Sulani

Rarely discipline your children. In fact, rarely interact with them

Optional Rules:

Never retire

Move at least three times

GENERATION FIVE ✿

Growing up, your parent was pretty distant and you never had a great relationship with them. They were always working, talking about work, or spending time with their significant others. One of your favorite memories of your childhood was your trip to Sulani. You and your sibling decide to move out together and live there permanently. It’s rough living in a new place with limited funds, but the two of you have some creative solutions.

Traits: Loyal, Bro, Kleptomaniac

Aspiration: Party Animal

Career: Criminal

Starting Out: Move into a small house in Sulani with your sibling. 

Rules: 

Max the charisma skill

Reach the top of your career

Earn money from the criminal career, stealing and pickpocketing 

Always maintain a close relationship with your sibling (who can also follow in your criminal footsteps, or work part time / odd jobs instead)

Throw parties regularly and pickpocket the whole time

Have a rivalry with another criminal that turns into love at some point 

Your sibling eventually moves out…and your partner moves in!

Have one child

Have a super tacky over the top wedding

Optional Rules:

 Max the mischief skill

(If you have this mod, you can pickpocket when your sim is younger! If you have Basemental you can also become a dealer to make money. If you have this mod, I recommend using the enemies to lovers interactions!)

And that’s all for now! I’m breaking this up into two parts, so the next five generations will be coming sometime (fairly) soon!

CW: Mention of divorce and parental issues

Being a sous chef is not for the weak. Caruso works tirelessly, often feeling overworked and underpaid. However, this is what he needs to do to achieve his goals. His interest in the culinary arts began in childhood, sparked by his mom's encouragement during playtime. Of course, he knew he didn't make actual edible food from crayons, but the smile on his mom's face gave him all the inspiration he needed. He would become "Chef Caruso" because of her. Over the next few years, Caruso started experimenting in the real kitchen and realized he was pretty decent at cooking. At first, it became a way to escape the heated arguments between his parents as their marriage crumbled. Cooking allowed him to block them out. Then, he remembered his mom's smile. Could food be the way to bring his parents back together? For a brief time, it seemed to work. The dinner table was a place for laughs and stories again, but it was only a temporary fix. The marriage was unsalvagable. Eventually, his parents got a divorce and his mom left Caruso with his other mom, which he refers to as "mother." It wasn't what his mom wanted, but she felt it was the best decision since his mother had more financial stability. Young Caruso was devastated. He stopped cooking and spent many days sulking and mindlessly channel surfing until he came across Diced Junior. That's it, that's the solution to everything. If he won, he could give the prize money to his mom and use the exposure from the show to kickstart his career. He got back into the kitchen and sent in applications every year, but each year he found a rejection letter in the mailbox. Disillusioned but not completely defeated, he decided he didn't need the Diced franchise in order to succeed. He could do it on his own. Now with an education from The Santoro Academy of Culinary Arts, a career as a sous chef, a growing YouTube channel, and an amazingly talented girlfriend on his side, Caruso feels unstoppable. He will become a celebrity chef and use his resources to find his mom and let her know that he holds no resentment. Plus, he'll be able to give her the life she always deserved. And if he has to be honest? He's in it for all the praise too.
