Sliding through your inbox girl 'cause I got to! 5, 7, annnnnddd 35-37!
5. Why did you join simblr?
Initially, I joined to have a space just to share my gameplay really casually. But something I realized quickly is that even if I start up a save just for the hell of it, I end up creating a story for my sims lol. This happened when I started playing with Maya and I kinda just rolled with it. I’ve stuck around because I genuinely do LOVE telling stories and exploring different aspects of life through my sims and being able to share it with everyone.
7. What do you want to do with your blog in the future?
Well, considering Tumblr’s recent change with their Terms of Service, I’m looking at two scenarios: 1) Waiting on the storm and hoping Tumblr changes it’s mind on banning NSFW content, or 2) Finding another site to continue my stories (which is kinda what I’m in the process of doing now). I’ve created a really intimate and fun community with this blog, and I don’t want to throw in the towel after being here for 5 months, so I’ll most likely be keeping my blog going here on Tumblr for the time being and linking any nsfw content…somewhere else? Once I’ve figured my final plans I’ll update you all lmao. But Maya and Nish and our new friends from my Get Famous Story will NOT be disappearing anytime soon!
35. How do you create your sims? Do you use inspiration? Have face claims?
It depends on how I’m feeling. I’ve made sims just because I wanted to use a specific hair before. I’ve also used pictures that I’ve found here (Zahira is modeled off this beautiful Indian model I found back in the summer lol). I also kinda just play around in CAS sometimes when I’m not sure what I want.
36. Do you dislike any of your sims? Why?
I was thinking about this one for a while, and honestly, if I hate a sim, y’all have probably never seen them on this blog lmao. Before I started uploading A Year of Maya, I played with my legacy family the Papayas, and I had a story going where one of my sims was in a polyamorous relationship (cause why not?) Anyway, she had a sister who had gotten married after years of being a player, and their spouses eventually ended up having a full on affair without my interference. Soooo, I actively cut him out of my screenshots whenever he shows up on lots lol. In terms of the characters featured in my stories, I don’t really hate anyone because I know everyone’s motivations for doing things. Even Maya’s parents.
37. How did your blog/sims change with time?
I think that my blog has really improved my storytelling in general. My dialog has gotten better and I’ve learned how to give characters more personality. I also think that I maybe have gotten better at editing my pictures, but not much better lol.
