My Top 23 Pictures / Moments of 2023! (except my top 10)

Thank you to the oh so sweet @anamoon63 for tagging me in this mini challenge / trend going around right now!

I unfortunately didn’t play too much this year due to college, but I still wanted to show off ten of my absolute favorite pictures and moments that happened this year specifically! They’re all with my sweet girl Sloan and I hope you guys enjoy them as much as I do! <3

I’m unsure of who has already been tagged in this so for funzies I tag @happy-lemon @pleasantviewpost @cozygirlsimmer @sophierosemaesims (feel free to ignore this if you’ve already done it!)

My TOP 23 screenshots for 2023

Thanks for tagging me, lovely Alex @ice-creamforbreakfast.

Considering I didn't reappear on the Simblr scene until late March, many of these will be recent shots, but here are some of my personal faves in chronological order!

1. James (with previous hairstyle, and with blanket) and Leona on the rooftop of The Factory. Despite it not being the best pic I ever shot, this post was my "comeback", so it's meaningful to me.

2. The moment Dan and Sadie broke up... Knowing what we know now, this was truly for the best, but I actually cried a little writing this post...

3. Jasper and Eva's Monte Vista wedding dinner.

4. When I built an entire coffeehouse just to shoot that one scene reuniting Esme and Martha.

5. Finn and Sadie giving in to hormones.

6. Luke and Susie's autumn wedding . I particularly liked this picture because of Boy in the background. 🥂

7. Eva expecting. But I mostly loved this picture because this house is my favourite house I ever decorated.

8. Rachel's face when she found out about Finn and Sadie's Friends with Benefits situation.

9. This moment when Joshua had an epiphany... (My heart...)

10. The start of Honeycomb Valley 2.0.

11. Sending Martha home. This one was emotional for me. She had been away for SO long and bringing her home was a big deal for the story but also for me.

12. This reaction of Sadie's when Martha said she and Finn should definitely "study... hard..." 😏

13. Finn confessing his feelings for Sadie to Rachel (which does hurt a bit in light of current events...)

14. This hugely important moment when Joshua was about to come out to his friends. ❤️

15. The date that didn't go to plan...

16. The moment that screwed up my entire flippin' storyline! 😳 The chemistry between these two the moment they got together for this scene totally messed everything up. Thankfully, the story became better because of it. More dramatic, but also better.

17. Phoenix. ❤️‍🔥

18. The dream. I had so much fun setting up this room for this scene. A little secret only one person knows: I actually shot the entire, very NSFW dream scene... In the end, I decided not to share it because at this point, I wanted to keep the tension alive for a while longer. But it was... something... 🫣

19. My dear struggling James who "came close but wrote song lyrics instead..."

20. Release. ❤️❤️❤️

21. That other release. (I could have chosen any picture from these scenes)

22. Rock bottom. And oh, how I felt this... 💔

23. Ending with my absolute favourite shot of the year. 💕

Loved doing this! Tagging @nocturnalazure, @danjaley, @simsaralove, @eljeebee, @dandylion240, @happy-lemon. As always, feel free to ignore.

My Top 23 Screenshots from 2023🎉

Thanks for the tag @armanasims (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)ㅤ♡

This tag game stumped me for a bit because I haven't been all that active on Tumblr this year. Frankly, it's been so infrequent that I don't even have the luxury of 23 screenshots to choose from (-_-"")

So, instead of my top 23 for the year, I've decided to share screenies that I never got around to posting. There are gameplay shots, a couple of scenery shots, and some posed ones thrown in for good measure - I hope you like them!

ETA: oh crap! I forgot to tag people hahahahaha...er...anyone who hasn't and wants to - please doooooo!!

My Top 23 Pictures/Moments From 2023

(Sims 4)

This was fun, but definitely not easy. Just like with The Sims 3, I had many more photos taken from this year that I would've liked to share, but I decided to omit them so as not to ruin any future seasons of both games, lol.

Anyway, just as promised, here are my Top 23 (Sims 4) Pictures/Moments from 2023. 😊✨

Thanks again to @treason-and-plot, @nocturnalazure and @wannabecatwriter for the tag.

For this one, I'd like to tag @serenasims, @edyavtostopom, @dridsimsheart, @marcishaun, @sharona-sims, @changingplumbob, @dandylion240 @happy-lemon, @mysimsloveaffair and @depictingdrew.

As always, feel free to ignore if you did this already. 😊

Top 23 of 2023

Have you been aching to get your hot little hands on 52 weeks of data around original posts, likes, reblogs, and searches, all weighted and ranked and tied up into categories with a nice little bow on top? Well, today’s your day! It should come as no surprise that Artists on Tumblr reign supreme: from stunning traditional art, jaw-dropping digital art, fanart, sculptures, textile art—you name it, basically—this year’s list shows that Tumblr truly is the home for art and artists. Thank you, Artists on Tumblr, for enriching our dashboards day after day. 

Rounding out the top three, we have two iconic shows: Good Omens is live-action, and The Owl House is animated, but both have a heck of a love story at their core. The second season of Good Omens blessed us with not one but two ineffably exquisite ships, while the final season of The Owl House broke and then healed fans’ hearts in equal measure. Thanks, @danaterrace! Actually, come to think of it, the Good Omens finale kinda did the same in reverse. Thanks to you, too, @neil-gaiman! We can’t wait for season 3. 

Speaking of heartbreak and healing, Our Flag Means Death’s second season offered both in droves. The entire cast gave stellar performances, and fans couldn’t have been happier to see the kinds of representation the show displayed. Last year’s #1 topic, Stranger Things, may have dropped a bit, but trust us, you wouldn’t know it from the amount of meta, fanart, and fics in the tag. And did you hear about the live-action adaptations of both The Last of Us and One Piece? They were a preeeetty big deal this year, too. Check ‘em out if you haven’t yet (lol, of course you have). And we’d be remiss not to mention the hugely dedicated fans, fanartists, and fic writers devoting their time to all things Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Y’all deserve a little pizza, as a treat.

2023 was also a year for blockbuster movies, which of course hasn’t escaped anybody’s notice here on Tumblr. Barbie smashed box offices worldwide and left us reeling with every re-watch. How can one describe Greta Gerwig’s pink-filled opus? It certainly is one of the movies of all time. Meanwhile, with its incredible animation and soundtrack, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse introduced us to a whole new multiverse of Spider-People, opening the portal to a veritable flood of incredible OCs. And then, of course, we got a fresh perspective on an old classic when cinephiles introduced Martin Scorscese’s cinematic masterpiece, Goncharov (1973), to a new generation of film aficionados who resoundingly agree that it is, in fact, the greatest mafia movie ever made. We’re so glad this underrated film finally got the acclaim it has long deserved.

In the realms of gaming and tech, the long-anticipated Baldur’s Gate 3 has basically become everyone’s new favorite D&D/dating sim combination. Of course, the Pokémon franchise, games, shows, and Hatsune Miku collabs remain perennial favorites. Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter, sorry, we mean of course X, made waves across the internet. Similarly, the Reddit blackout drove Redditors to new venues, and Tumblr users welcomed the folks from r/196 with open arms—we’re huge fans of your memes, y’all, and you fit right in. Welcome, we’re glad you enjoy the chaos. Here’s a fun fact: if we included post metadata in Year in Review rankings, #polls, introduced in January of 2023, would have been the #5 topic on Tumblr this year. Phenomenal. 

And, oh right. Taylor Swift had kind of a big year, what with the albums, the epic global tour, and the movie and stuff. Fantastic work, @taylorswift, the Swifties on Tumblr thank you for everything.

This is Tumblr’s Year in Review.

JEWELRY SHOP REMIX

Published: 9-23-2023 | Updated: 9-28-2023 SUMMARY "Master jewelers and dealers of finery. And stuff. And thangs. And stuff! We carry SimCity’s finest jewels, atomized gems, and precious, semi-synthetic metals." This set is a retro-futurist, steam-funkish remix of an older Jewelry Shop (WR/HChangeri/RetailSims, 2007 via the LiquidSims Archive) with several new add-ons. The design is inspired by The Fjord “Chiclettina” counters and ‘marvelous marbles’ walls/floors from Sims 2. All 40+ items range from §50-750 and some assembly is required. Scroll down for more details and download links.

DETAILS Requires all EPs/SPs §50-750 | Buy Mode To streamline files and potential recoloring, everything is repo’d to one of the following objects: Fjord Allshelf 001 (shelving/accents), Fjord Boxed Jewelry Display (boxes), Fjord Necklaces Display (displays/jewelry bands), Fjord Earrings Display (gems), Jewel Case (jewelry cases), Fjord Jewelry Table Glass Display (all glass), Plain Old Fjord Counter (marble surfaces), Fjord Hanging Sign (vertical images; 256x512), Fjord Store Sign (horizontal images; 1024x512) – these items are REQUIRED for textures, etc. to display correctly in-game. *RPC Launcher doesn’t always delete the “Accessories.cache” file, so you may want to MANUALLY delete the file and let the game generate a new one if you remove this set from your game.

ITEMS Modular Shop Furniture The plain counter has been retextured and has 3 slots (only small deco items can occupy the last 2 slots) while the jewelry table has 1 slot. All other furniture is deco - assemble unique display areas by pairing these and other items with one of three shelving units.

The Fjord Single Item Displays 001-003 (pictured above) get their recolors from the EverGlow Plutonium Rod that came with the Nightlife EP. Find them under Lighting > Standing/Floor Lamps – but they can also be used to gussy up displays (see below). You can get recolors for these lights HERE.

DOWNLOAD (choose one) MESHES from SFS | from MEGA SHELVING from SFS | from MEGA MARBLE RECOLORS from SFS | from MEGA JEWEL CASE RECOLORS from SFS | from MEGA COLLECTION FILE from SFS | from MEGA

*A known game bug may disable some OFB shelf slots. Not all players experience this bug in the same way, but if you do – there is a long-standing fix for it. If you cannot access more than 2 slots on shelves, download ONE of these fixes: MORE_Custom-objects-placeable-on-shelves (Numenor, 2006) MORE_Custom-objects-placeable-on-shelves+LOCKEDTILES (Numenor, 2006) Object Freedom 1.02 (Fway, 2023)) 15 Functional Jewelry Displays §250 each | Buy > Misc > Misc

This set includes 6 traditional counter-top displays with empty states.

Fjord Boxed Jewelry Display (1116 poly), Fjord Earrings Display (784 poly), Fjord Jewelry Stand (1212 poly), Fjord Necklace & Rings Display (748 poly), Fjord Necklaces Display (816 poly), Fjord Rings Display (1072 poly). You can’t really place more than 1 or 2 large displays on the shelving, so there are 8 smaller, complementary displays included as well.

Fjord Boxed Jewelry Display Two (604 poly), Fjord Bracelets Display (392 poly), Fjord Earrings Display Two (276 poly), Fjord Earrings Display Three (356 poly), Fjord Rings Display Two (472 poly), Fjord Rings Display Three (632 poly), Fjord Single Necklace Display (556 poly), Fjord Single Necklace Display Two (258 poly).

Fjord Smart Jewelry Kiosk (2220 poly); Fjord Boxed Jewelry Display Two pictured again above as well. The kiosk functions as a normal jewelry rack with a unique empty state (the glow disappears, and the screens turn all angry and red!). The label at the base of the machine uses textures from the Fjord Hanging Sign. You’ll see two torn pieces of packaging when the Fjord Boxed Jewelry Display Two needs restocking – other items have noticeably empty states as well (i.e. there will be no jewelry on the display). DOWNLOAD JEWELRY RECOLORS:

BANDS/CHAINS IN SILVER METALS from SFS | from MEGA GEMSTONES IN CURIOUS-B COLORS from SFS | from MEGA GEMSTONES IN SILVER METALS from SFS | from MEGA

Shop Signage

Show off your merchandise with updated advertisements (originals pictured on top row, remixes pictured on bottom row), as well as several new promotional designs: Fjord Hanging/Standing/Mini Signs (56 poly), Fjord Store Sign (892 poly).

DOWNLOAD (choose one) SIGNAGE from SFS | from MEGA *Since items in the Sims 2 are limited to two recolorable subsets, not all items are recolorable in the same way. For each display, the base and either the gemstones or metal bands/chains are recolorable. Find recolors for this set under the #ts2recolors tag.

SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED 1) Place a counter (or table, display cabinet, large jewel case, etc.): Fjord Accessory Table (156 poly), Fjord Cabinet Metal (88 poly), Fjord Display Cabinets 001-002 (212-250 poly), Fjord Display Pedestal (12 poly), Fjord Glassbox Displays 001-002 (126 poly), Fjord Jewelry Table (22 poly), Fjord Showcase Counter (533 poly), Plain Old Fjord Counter (113 poly).

2) With “snap objects to grid” set to TRUE, assemble items on one of the shelves (3-6 slots each): Fjord Allshelving 001- 002 (12 poly), Fjord Cabinet Glass (Shelf) (28 poly), Fjord Counter Display Cabinet (~400 poly), Fjord Jewel Case Displays Reg/Small (744 poly), Fjord Jewelry Table Glass Display (116 poly), Fjord Jewelry Table Shelf (12 poly).

*For owned businesses, this is a good time to set items for sell. The short display cabinets pictured above are shiftable in case you need to move them and rearrange items on the shelf. You can click through the glass as well.

**Some debug-related items float slightly when placed on Allshelf 001 or 002 – this is something I’ve experienced when cloning BuggyBooz shelves - it’s not terribly noticeable from most angles. If it bothers you, close the gap by shifting another object underneath.

***The jewel cases have 6 slots. This may be awkward for the smaller case but that’s on purpose - to make moving several clutter items at once easier. In my opinion, the larger one looks better when paired with a shelf.

3) With “move objects” ON and “snap objects to grid” set to FALSE, shift/rotate the shelf into place as needed. As you combine different objects, some will look best when they’re all facing the same direction (i.e., the green arrows are pointing in the same direction) and others might not – this depends on what items you’re using. You can shift/combine the Fjord Single Item Displays with select objects to add neon light accents to your displays.

You’ll need “move objects on/off” and “snap objects to grid true/false” cheats to make some combinations work. You may also need fences, OMSPs, or other objects to keep sims from walking through parts of the display.

4) Use the Tile Blocker as needed (especially if you play with Object Freedom by Fway, 2023). All objects have 1-tile footprints – but some cover more space than a single tile. The Tile Blocker is included in this set to help you cover those unused tiles and keep sims from walkin’ where they shouldn’t be walkin (learned this the hard way!). If needed, you can read more about the Tile Blocker using the download link below.

DOWNLOAD (choose one) TILE BLOCKER from SFS | from MEGA Enjoy! Recolors will be available on this site under the #ts2recolors tag.

My Top 23 Screenshots from 2023🎉

Thanks @biffybobs and @cowplant-snacks for the tag, loves!

This was so much harder than I imagined—and I didn't go in thinking it was going to be easy! How do you even define "top" screenshots?

Something I noticed on my first pass was that I was gravitating to a lot of posed shots, as they seem to tell a story better in a single image than you can with live gameplay. (Lots of favorite moments passed over because the action or reaction is spread over multiple images.) However as I pared down, they became the easiest to let go of. Easier than multiple scenics and tablescapes and other questionable "top" entries. In the end, it became about juxtaposition and joy.

Scrolling through a year's worth of posts on what turns out to be simblr gratitude day (?) has me feeling all kinds of mushy, so I'd just like to say I'm so grateful you're here. For anyone who bothered reading this, anyone who cares even a teeny tiny bit about my humble little Rebuild A City sims. Even if you've never left a comment, or read without liking a single post, or don't read at all but are unbothered enough to stick around following me for the 3 whole builds I manage to post per year... 😁 I'm grateful you're here and that I get to share my silly little post-apocalyptic world with you.

And, hey, one year in, now that we've set the pace... Here's to getting through years 3 and 4 (and hopefully more!) in 2024.

I'm forever opting to tag no one at all but this was nice so for once I'll tag lots of folks this time @myverycoolnickname @cantseemtohide @irrewilderer @panicsimss @saartje77 @oatberrytea @trash-llama @littlefallsnook @mysimsloveaffair @gladlypants @homewardial @memoirsofasim @thebramblewood @moonwoodhollow @introvertedfox @ethicaltreatmentofcowplants @devotedsims @lilacacia (that is, if you haven't already! I did my best to check, but I'm a bit behind the times getting to this!)

[cowplant-snacks]

My Top 30 Screenshots from 2023🎉

Thanks @surely-sims for the tag <3

I really tried to narrow it down but this was the best I could do. I hope you enjoy this walk scroll down memory lane.

You can follow the rest of the Hammond's journey here.

I tag @fizzytoo @gerbits @m0ckest @apricote @whyeverr @sweetbeagaming @thebramblewood @saturngalore @strawberry-nia and anyone else that wants to do this. :D

ps. if Anne can do 23 than I might as well just do 30 (which I found out is the photo max).

2023 BL/GL/QL Round-Up Post

I thought for posterity I'd post a reflection on everything I watched that completed in 2023. For me, that means anything that started in 2022 but the last episode was in 2023 is on this list, but anything that will still be airing after 31 December 2023 11:59 my time (EST) is not on this list, even if the bulk of the show did air in 2023.

A few stats:

110 discrete pieces of content (series/films)

clocking in at est. 600 hours of NEW BL/GL content only

from 9 different countries (Cambodia [1], Philippines [3], Hong Kong [1], Japan [18], Korea [19], Myanmar [1], Taiwan [6], Thailand [56], Vietnam [7])

~50% of the content I watched on this list is from Thailand

~85% of my content was on YouTube [40%], GaGaOoLaLa [23%] and iQIYI [21%].

[Note that this year a lot of older GMMTV shows moved off of YouTube and onto Viki so if you're looking at these stats to decide what to pay for, this won't account for that.]

This doesn't include re-watches or catching up on old shows [e.g. I re-watched Love Sick, My Ride the Series, Semantic Error, ITSAY/IPYTM, Our Dating Sim at least 3 times lol, and anything with a s2 I re-watched s1 to prep, among others, watched Fujoshi Ukkari Gei no Kokuru (2019) for the first time] or non-QL [e.g. Heartstopper s2, Our Flag Means Death s2, Taskmaster s. 15 & 16, Uncanny Counter s2, One Piece s1, etc.] but does include films as well as shows, though I don't count special episodes separately (so Wedding Plan counts once, though I watched both the show and the special).

I hope you all appreciate that with this much content, and with my general brand of being unable to make decisions, I really struggled to narrow down a top 10 list. What follows is the best I could do lol

Top 20 Shows I'd Recommend From This Year:

Moonlight Chicken

Our Dating Sim

Bed Friend

The Eighth Sense

La Pluie

Sing My Crush

Tokyo in April Is...

Wedding Plan

Laws of Attraction

I Cannot Reach You

I Feel You Linger in the Air

What Did You Eat Yesterday S2

I Became the Lead in a BL Drama

If It's With You

Love in Translation

Our Dining Table

My Personal Weatherman

My Beautiful Man: Eternal

My School President

Be My Favorite

+10 I liked but I would only recommend with caveats:

Love Class 2

The New Employee [for the Rainbow Rice Cakes]

Let's Eat Together Aki and Haru

Never Let Me Go

Kiseki: Dear to Me

Unintentional Love Story

The Day I Loved You

End of the World with You

A Breeze of Love

Jack O'Frost

Bonus: Not a BL but worth calling out:

One Room Angel

Midnight Museum

Grand Guignol

The Warp Effect

Sadly, of the GLs that aired this year, I wouldn't recommend any of them. The best one was Show Me Love, which was not actually good but had very gorgeous women and a LOT of flirting.

The other huge thing that happened this year was that I stopped lurking! Thanks specifically to @lurkingshan and @bengiyo demanding everyone start talking about La Pluie, because they got me to post my first meta post. And because I started actually talking to people, I started making actual friends, and participated in organizing things like the Be My Favorite clown checkpoint for ep 11. I also disappeared a month because of life, and am still catching up on everything I intended to write this year. But it's been really rewarding finding this corner of tumblr with likeminded people who like good shows, like to think about these shows, and who are interested in talking about them in a way that's insightful and respectful.

It's been a long time since I felt comfortable enough participating actively in a fandom, and I just want to say to everyone I've interacted with this year: Thank you!

Full list under the cut for anyone curious! [Mostly in order it aired but may be slightly off].

Tagged by @fl0pera and @nitrozem. Tysm, I love little simblr games!! AND I HAVE SO MUCH TO CATCH UP TO.

In no specific order (also includes sims I've never posted because they didn't click in my brain unfortunately)

I tag @ktysh , @goremayhem and @thebramblewood. Also as usual anyone else who'd like to do it <3

Top 23 Screenshots for 2023

Tagged by @nitrozem💜 Thank you! (*ᴗ͈ˬᴗ͈)

I put most of them under a cut because, even though I don't mind it on my dash, idk if everyone feels the same about long posts.

tagging a few lovelies: @kissalopa @keoni-chan @introvertedfox @damseljamsel @illuminated-foxx @memoirsofasim

Feel free to do it if you want to! (˙꒳​˙ ) (If I'm not the first person to tag you all, sorry! My memory on a good day isn't great. (￣▽￣ )ゞ )

1. The loneliest bus stop that I learned from posting this is actually functional!

2. Recreation of one of my very first sims made with the CAS demo; Agent Pierce Connery.

3. Amantius and Hugo on their first vacation trip. Hugo was so thin then compared to now, I forgot. lol

4. Fifi and Priscilla, my Growing Together save while I waited for mod updates. I miss them but they've had some of the cutest kids in my current save.

5. When Amantius set the shower on fire when he tried to magic clean it and all the cats came in to panic in circles around his feet.

6. BABY FERN!

7. Toddler Fern trying to talk to newborn Juniper.

8. Where's the (roast) beef?! (I still think about this and it still bothers me.)

9. Matching buddies!

10. I still don't know how her blow out got both of them.

11. Love Day!

12. When a glitch helped give the best angle for Queen Fern.

13. The baby who didn't want to be held for anything.

14. DANCE PARTY!

15. I did a meme too.

16. 🐸ding ding🐸

17. When they thought it was a good idea to duel.

18. YAMACHAN! (also Rosen is so smol. 🥺)

19. When I was ready to watch Amantius burn to death just to see if he or the chair was on fire.

20. I was just happy with how this turned out. I went through a lot of anguish before I learned how to use wickedwhims to position teen and adult sims with poses.

21. Rosen might be my favorite. (But Juniper is still a strong contestant.)

22. Waffle's face.

23. Their autonomous flirts/kisses melt my heart.🥹

My Top 23 Pictures/Moments from 2023

(Sims 3)

Thank you my lovely friends @nocturnalazure @treason-and-plot and @wannabecatwriter for tagging me. 🤗💗

This one was fun, but kind of hard because I don't consider myself a great sims photographer, so I chose rather what for me were the best moments of my stories and gameplay, that is, the ones that I liked the most or were special to me. It was a bit difficult too because I have so many pictures I love, but I understood that I had to select only 23 of them.

Also, I decided to make two posts, one for The Sims 3 and another for The Sims 4, If I had mixed both it would've been even harder to decide which pictures to pick and which to discard. So, this post is for top Sims 3 pics only, in a later post I'll show my top Sims 4 pics. 😉

Without further ado, here are My Top 23 (Sims 3) Pictures/Moments from 2023. 😊✨

I think almost everyone has already done this, but anyway I'd like to tag @beresimsdreamworld @echoweaver @pudding-parade @thetaurussimmer. @bool-prop, @neillesimstories and @kimmiessimmies. If you already did this, feel free to ignore. 😊

this year for me and the sims have been bitter sweet for because of the fact that I haven’t really played my game and just open it for 45 minutes and leave after a slight boredom comes creeping up on me. hopefully this year is different
