The major response I've seen to this news is "Oh no, they're going to Riverdale it" just because Greg Berlanti is producing. First off, he had no writing credit on Riverdale at all, and is not the writer behind it.

The writers and other company behind this new take don't have the best past record. Their last Netflix show was the short-lived Cowboy Bebop show. But I always like giving people a chance. Sometimes it takes a few failures for writer(s) to figure out what works for them. Just like someone can give something amazing and then have a big failure as their next project, the opposite can be true as well.

But also, I know I'm in the minority of not being the biggest fan of Mystery Incorporated but I find it a little weird people are so anti-Riverdale esque Scooby when Mystery Incorporated , which is seen as in the general sense to be the most favored beloved modern take, is basically a more kid friendly cartoon pre-Riverdale Riverdale

Grief is the phantom of a Discord ping, echoing through your head as you check again and again, hoping that this time they'll come back.

Grief is a two-headed dog that bays for your blood. Never resting, never relenting, it will not stop until it has you between its jaws.

Grief is a familiar world made strange and frightening, warping and fraying around you as you flail for something, anything, to break your neverending fall.

Grief is a robber that spirits your very breath away. Through black smoke and murky water, the very act of living becomes an unbearable ordeal.

Grief is wishing you could fall into a mirror, live another life, just for one last chance at something real.

Grief is a plane forever losing altitude, forever doomed to crash. It is at once unstoppable force, immovable object, and catastrophic impact.

“On my own Pretending he's beside me All alone I walk with him till morning”

I’ve got a couple of questions for those more knowledgeable than I.

Firstly, does anyone know of a mod or a way of having one Sim get a crush on or fall in love with another Sim without having any romantic interactions between them? After all, that’s often how it happens in real life!

Also, when a Sim adopts a baby, does the game create a brand-new Sim using the default (or replacement) face templates, or does it have a ready-made stock of adoptees in waiting somewhere? I’m thinking of having a couple adopt, but I’d like the game to generate a baby using my default-replacement face templates, not just give me one of the vanilla Maxis templates.
