Lots of thoughts recently. Everything feels plastic.
I could go on and on about why all that AI "art" is bad. I could mention theft, lack of creativity, it's impact on the work field and environment, but countless people have already said all that. I wanted to touch on something that to me is the most utterly wrong about all of it.
Art is more than just something pretty to look at or listen to. It's therapeutic. It's a form of communication. A tool for human connection. It's a pure, human need.

It's no secret to even the most casual viewer of Ancient Egyptian art that the inhabitants of 𓆎𓅓𓏏𓊖 were very much a tits-out kind of people. One long-lived style of dress seems to have been a sheet of linen tied around the waist or just under the breasts.
I have done my best to replicate at least the general vibe of this attire. Trying to make something that simultaneously captures both 5th dynasty trends (statue, lower left) and 18th dynasty trends (mourners, upper right) demands some level of artistic license, so I hope you'll bear with me.
Stats:
♢ Basegame Compatible
♢ All LODs & Maps
♢ Color Tagged for All 12 Swatches (I encourage recolors! I ran out of time to make more)
♢ Outfit Type: Everyday • Formal • Party • Hot Weather • Sleep
♢ Found in Fullbody Under: Robes and Costumes
♢ Disabled for Random
PLEASE NOTE: If you use the default EA skin, your Sim will have Barbie doll anatomy (maybe that's what you want — I dunno). If you want your Ancient Egyptian Sim to have nipples, you will need to use a custom skin that has them. I use the Freesia default replacement skin by Llumisims.
Download on SFS right here and now! C'mon. I know you want to. give into those intrusive thoughts. They are pretty optimized lightweight files too, no need to hesitate. Hmm? We all have a CC addiction, no shame in that.
I hope this is somewhat like what Anon requested. The set is literally just these 6 computers, all functional and coming in black/white with several color gradients each making it 12 swatches in total. Yes, there's RGB neon too. Why hold back? I'd sell part of my liver for that two-screened shiny babe. (Just kidding, I'm probably poisonous anyway)
These are playtested and basegame compatible. Most can be stashed in sims' inventories and have live-dragging enabled. Be nice to my girls here, will ya? Here's a closer look at each. Have fun with them!
27_12_2024: fixed broken rigging after an game update. Everything should look correctly on LOD1 now.
A young Indigenous woman enters a colonizer-run dragon academy—and quickly finds herself at odds with the “approved” way of doing things—in the first book of this brilliant new fantasy series.
The remote island of Masquapaug has not seen a dragon in many generations—until fifteen-year-old Anequs finds a dragon’s egg and bonds with its hatchling. Her people are delighted, for all remember the tales of the days when dragons lived among them and danced away the storms of autumn, enabling the people to thrive. To them, Anequs is revered as Nampeshiweisit—a person in a unique relationship with a dragon.
Unfortunately for Anequs, the Anglish conquerors of her land have different opinions. They have a very specific idea of how a dragon should be raised, and who should be doing the raising—and Anequs does not meet any of their requirements. Only with great reluctance do they allow Anequs to enroll in a proper Anglish dragon school on the mainland. If she cannot succeed there, her dragon will be killed.
For a girl with no formal schooling, a non-Anglish upbringing, and a very different understanding of the history of her land, challenges abound—both socially and academically. But Anequs is smart, determined, and resolved to learn what she needs to help her dragon, even if it means teaching herself. The one thing she refuses to do, however, is become the meek Anglish miss that everyone expects.
Anequs and her dragon may be coming of age, but they’re also coming to power, and that brings an important realization: the world needs changing—and they might just be the ones to do it.
PRAISE
“A thorough delight … To Shape a Dragon’s Breath reveals a world that is complex and political through deft, thoughtfully drawn characters who, like their world, are complicated and believable. I love Anequs!”—K. Eason, author of How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse
“Imagine a world full of dragons where a newborn chooses you to be its caregiver. Imagine you have to go to a special school to learn how to train it. Imagine that almost no one at the school wants you there. This is how the well-written, compelling tale of To Shape a Dragon’s Breath begins, and once underway it doesn’t let you go.”—New York Times bestselling author Terry Brooks

📜🌷 MEDIEVAL & FANTASY MODS LIST 🌷📜

It isn't just a sex mod! Turbo really revolutionized gameplay with this. The ability for animations to spawn objects (and some posemakers use WW for animations for this purpose). There's an attraction system, you can position your sims to get rid of clipping when posing. There's all sorts of things that WW contributes to the game. I may or may not be a subscriber because of this. Not ONLY do we get all of these gameplay additions, he updates regularly and frequently. Bro doesn't play about his mods. And you know what? I like that shit. I like that you care enough to put out a product and MAINTAIN IT. Unlike the developers of the actual game its for.
Storytelling is nearly impossible without Turbo and I hope he knows that the majority of us know better and appreciate this mod enough not to fuck with the creator when new updates/packs come out.

New book! Coming Friday the 25th! You can pre-order the ebook online starting…well, as soon as it gets approved on the various sites, or get either ebook or hardcopy directly via Argyll Productions!
This is not a horror novel, it’s a middle-grade fantasy, in the same vein as Wizard’s Guide to Defensive Baking, although shorter and I think lighter, so if you just need something fluffy and cozy to unwind with that will not force you to grapple with trauma or cause you to develop any new phobias, I think this one’s safe! Probably!
(Part 1/2) for some female school uniform styled looks. Male uniforms will be coming soon so all your teens will look their sharpest for class. Requested by @macthekat82 - hope you like them!
Valedictorian
Available for Female, Teen Only
7 Different Swatches
Tagged for Everyday
Packs Used: High School Years, Cottage Living, Cats & Dogs, Get to Work, Paranormal
I like that Finally we have Body hair in the game, like actual Body hair but the textures are somewhat... Awful, so i took the liberty to separate, recolor and re-clasify in the new categories my favorite body hair from @luumia. His textures are AMAZING. I dont know if Luumia will update his body hair and do all this work (It took me about 3 days to do all this) but if he updates it i will put it down if he asked me to it.
An X-ray of the historical context. Part 1: 1800s-1957s
History helps us to understand our past and how we come to today. I am studying architecture, that’s why I see how the different historical contexts influence their architecture.
This is a kind of help to the people who play the History Challengue at the time of building their homes and giving more personality to their decades
I’m not trying to have absolute reason, if there’s any mistake, please let me know.
These room styles are not the only ones, but they are an example to help.
Going from one decade to another doesn't mean that the previous style disappears, there are familiar/historical contexts that could not afford to be at the forefront of technology.
Don't limit yourself. This is a game, if you don’t want to make it historically accurate ITS OKAY
In Victorian houses, the kitchen is a separate space from the rest of the house and with independent access, as it was a service space where servants, wives and daughters spent a great deal of time. They are even located in the basement, with minimal ventilation that followed the design of the facade and not the function of the interior.
A traditional Victorian kitchen are big, with a large work space in the center and a large kitchen range embedded in the wall.
Late XIX Century /Early XX Century
During the end of the Victorian era, new appliances emerged as the refrigerator and oven with a more modest dimension. They were still a place where you had to do several tasks at the same time and by hand, from washing, cooking, storing, ironing, chopping, grinding, etc.
The kitchen was not something standard as we know, the measurements or heights of the furniture changed between different homes, They were normally furniture that could be movedor that weren't attached to the walls except in the case of ovens.
They were generally poorly lit, covered in wood panels and with stone floors to prevent deterioration.
Edwardian Era
The kitchen begins to take a certain order inside a house, since although it is still considered for service and womens and therefore hid inside the house, it is a space where you spent a great time there, in addition the advances of the kitchen spaces take course towards the rationalization of the useful spaces.
Gas stoves and wood stovescome up in the Edwardian era, just like the running water system as we know it today, where you no longer had to pump water into the yard or pull it out of a well. Ceramic and stone floors remain a trend.
After the World War I
Problems never before seen begin to appear. The era of the servitude of the aristocratic house was about to end. Housing spaces are scarce, a method is needed to gather the minimum living spaces in a repetitive way for families with limited budgets.
Margarete SchUtte, an Austrian architect begins to see the problem of housing organization. She designs the Frankfurt kitchen model: a narrow kitchen, on one side was the stove, on the other there were cabinets with a sink and in front of the window there was a space to work.
The kitchen was a conscious design decision to minimize the number of steps needed when working on it. But users often had difficulties. Not used to the workflows for which the space was created, they often didn't know how to use the kitchen. And in the kitchen where there was only room for one person, she perpetuated the idea of women in housework, instead of emancipating them
Revolutionaries 20s
The Bauhaus was the school of architecture that marked the revolution in modern design since 1919. Erna Meyer was the first designer to incorporate ergonomic criteria for the design of the kitchen.
She advised housewives to keep everything at hand, reduce the amount of movements needed and take frequent breaks. In 1927, kitchens were still service areas and forbidden to guests.
The Stuttgart kitchen, communicated directly with the living room (A precursor of contemporary kitchens). The new designs may have improved life in the kitchen, but it would still be room for women unquestionably, even among the most progressive of the moment.
The Great Depression
In the 30s, not much was innovated largely because of social problems, this was delegated only to high society sectors or habitability experiments. It is on this date that other models were developed that tried to improve the permeability between the kitchen and the dining room, family reunion place.
The Munich kitchen , designed by the architect Hanna Löw, intended to reduce the isolation to the person was subjected from domestic chores by incorporating a large stained glass window; thus improving the visual contact between the kitchen and the living room.
Despite its progressivism, this design had less scope than the previous ones and was poorly valued despite presenting solutions very advanced to the time. But it is a design that could be impregnated for an avant-garde sim in their stories.
Minimal and communal compartmentalization
In the period between wars there are also questions about housing from a community perspective. Here studies on new models of residential buildings were initiated.
The transition to a busy society had to incorporate a change in the way of life with a renewal of the domestic space. In new thoughts the key is to eliminate uses that tie women to housing, such as cooking, childcare, toilets and showers. These uses became communal, as did the laundry or dining room.
This design of the Narkomfin Building have the minimum space for a dining room and incorporated small gas stoves to heat the food prepared in the collective kitchens, in case you want to keep privacy,
Word War II
During the 1940s, with the outbreak of the Second World War, the designs became inferior and on the periphery of Europe or in Scandinavian countries. The idea of a work organization in the form of a triangle (between oven, refrigerator and sink) was a trend.
The work surfaces went from being totally functionalist to a design with a certain humanization of the epsacium and not something so mechanical. Were evenly distributed to cook with the same oven or to prepare food, the windows to illuminate begin to be placed on the basins.
In the post-war period the future of integrated and compact kitchens, used to rebuild homes in Europe built with US appliances, began to be seen
lCold War and the Surburbian Housewife
In the 1950s, in a period of cold war, the return to normality was something one aspired to and that’s how one begins to romanticize and idealize the idea of a happy suburban housewife with a husband returning from work safe and sound. In the 1950s, integrated kitchens with modular and flexible arrangements were launched on the market.
The DIN standards allowed to improve the compositions of the furniture of the kitchen, where the washing machine, dryer, kitchen and refrigerator appear as something indispensable but also this generates that the kitchens are submitted to the concept of minimalist kitchen.
This is because the kitchen in the post-war period is governed by the rules of advertising and market, where the real needs were focused on smooth, uniform and depersonalized surfaces.

In an attempt for more diversity (and it was also a request ages ago) here is the first of hopefully more to come for impaired/challenged/disabled sims.
Notes:
- Can use in combination with earrings - it uses a separate texture space!
- But because of this, some shoe textures will overlap (not many that I found though)
- There is just the left and right side, but you can have both on at the same time
- You can’t have 2 different colours
- Disabled for random. I wanted to enable it for random but some ear shapes just don’t work well
- A bunch of different skin tones from pale to black, also some bright colours if your sim wants to show it off to the world!
Recolours encouraged, just don’t include the mesh!
Tag me, I’d love to share your creations <3

While playing around with Discover University I found myself a bit disappointed with the lack of new aspirations and traits that came with the EP. University students usually don’t focus solely on academics, so why should our sims? I decided to make a pack of 7 aspirations that utilize some of the new features that came with the pack, while also focusing on other aspects of a sim’s life.
I can’t be the only one who misses these! Where are the Collections in The Sims 4? A reblog would be really appreciated! ❤ https://www.simsnetwork.com/news/2019/09/23/where-are-the-collections-in-the-sims-4 @thesimsofficial @berrysweetboutique @nolan-sims @brazenlotus @maxismatch4sims @maxismatchccworld @simscreatorscommunity
