These are the same people who, faced with an obviously intersex newborn, would 100% surgically mutilate the baby to fit in a binary ASAP without thinking twice.

It never is and never was about protecting children.

These, on the other hand, are adorable.

What the actual fuck? What even is that? Why would anyone make, let alone buy this? I have so many questions and honestly I'm not sure I want them all answered..

It is a pejorative

No, it isn't, just like TERF isn't or like pointing out someone is white or male isn't, they are all simple statements of fact, that those they apply to don't like because, being used to always being the "default" that doesn't need categorising, it gives them the tiniest of glimpses of being part of an out group, without all of the oppression people like them actually enforce on members of the groups they marginalise.

Don't play in to the hands of the victimhood seeking bootlicker. This person is not being attacked or bullied or harmed in any way, they are literally just facing the consequences of their actions and words.

As they fucking should.

They're also literally defending cops, probably the most well known group of domestic abusers out there. It really isn't a big leap to make that if someone gets defensive over abusers (or racists), it's because they're actually getting defensive about their own behaviour.

E: also, the fact that the mods had removed your comment, but none of the racist bootlicker's, tells you everything you need to know about who they prioritise in this space - when "don't be a dick" becomes "don't be a dick to fascists", you're actively platforming fascists.

I am entitled to my opinion in this community

As is everyone else!

And just like everyone else, your feelings of entitlement don't protect you from having your shit opinion criticised, nor you, for having it!

So fuck off, racist bootlicker.

Accessibility in general seems to be a huge benefit to automation a lot of people here including op are overlooking, which is a great shame but unfortunately not surprising..

You're good, like I said, it clearly wasn't intentional, we all pick up different bits of information along our ways, this is probably one of those things that circulated in feminist spaces more than celebrity ones, but either way, now more people know!

I appreciate the seconding, but also find it ironic considering the article we're replying to that you (completely unintentionally, I don't doubt) chose a meme featuring sex pest James Franco.

What in the world necessitates those?

A system designed to abuse and control.

For me it won't stop it, but pushing my tongue up and forward against my pallet and clenching my jaw will help contain the sneeze (and often also give the sinuses a good clear).

 

ID: a person on the phone looking serious, a text bubble beneath says: "I have hidden a single raisin in every single chocolate chip cookie and muffin in the united states. here's my list of demands"

 

ID: Jamie Lee Curtis is facing the camera smiling, behind her is a tree, and peeking out from behind it is Mariah Carey dressed in a Santa dress. Jamie turns around to look, but no one is there, she turns back to the camera and looks worried.

 

I am 100% confident that I had collected all of the WL on the map after doing Eden this week (apart from trials), and was at 149 buffs knowing I just need todays shard to get to 150, but as part of my daily run I've just flown through Isle, and to my surprise, there was a WL waiting for me at the top of the hill/steps heading to the temple.

I collected it and am now at 150, definitely hadn't lost any in the last few days, so what's going on?

There has been a bugged WL on the map at Isle for absolute ages, I wonder if it has anything to do with an attempted fix? (E: just checked the nearest map shrine, and the WL indicator for Isle is gone, so this might be it!)

Either way, worth having a look, in case it isn't just me!

 

I was so excited to buy the disco ball specifically to use as a beacon to call attention and get help (with 4 player doors, yeti race, to mark for others where the turtle darkness bloom ended up, to give focus to good musicians, but most importantly the 4 player assembly quest), and was finding it surprisingly effective (I only had to wait like 15 minutes before 3 players showed up to do the quest!), it was really the main reason I was willing to spend so many hearts, only to now find out none of the other players could actually see its glowing lights, and it was all just a lucky coincidence 😂😂

I think having these little parties happen (not too clear in the image, but we were all dancing lol) must have given me the wrong impression 😳

For the record, I can completely understand why it is this way, with the disco ball especially, with photosensitivity and all that, but I figured at least the shell would work like an instrument (which can be muted separately already).

Oh well, live and learn. Won't stop me throwing impromptu discos though, or wishing I could carry both these props at the same time! 🎉😂

 

Let me start by saying I'm not competitive and don't care about who wins or how many points anyone has scored, I just participate for the in game currency and if the mini game is fun, then for that.

Now to my observation - I know there has been a lot of speculation about the groupings of the teams and that blues just have more people so they're getting more points. I generally barely register the overall results or those of a race and just wait for the pop up to go away so I can go get the medal.

But today I noticed something - there were two different shapes of blue cape in the end result. I didn't manage to get a screenshot of course, and the few times I tried to replicate this it didn't happen again (and all the capes, even if duplicate colour were the same shape), but I'm wondering, especially since we often only see greyed out capes in the results so maybe this has somehow gone under the radar, if they had intended to have 5 teams, to go with 5 Olympic rings (and the 5th realm most people run - vault), but for whatever reason the 5th team go absorbed in to blue, which is why there are so many more people in it.

Has anyone else seen anything like this? I know this isn't the biggest pool of players to ask, but I'm don't really use any of the other platforms where people talk abut Sky (beyond lurking some on reddit).

Anyway, just an observation and my personal conspiracy to go with it lol

 

Do people really spend money on a cape to access this place???

It was giving me anxiety from the second I walked through the door, but then I accidentally clicked a thing that started a video on all the screens, and it was like something out of a nightmare, I had to get out of there 😂😂

 

I've completed the cabinet quest from Season of Assembly at least 4 times in the past 2 days (I tried it ages ago but got frustrated then too and moved on to complete other seasons), I'll get the prompt saying I'm done and asking if I want to return the cabinet and I click yes, I'll get teleported back to the starting point (where the prayer circle was but then isn't anymore) then nothing happens. I'll go back to the treehouse via the tunnel and the guide will have a red dot and behave as if I've still got to go and complete the cabinet!

Any ideas what I might be missing/doing wrong? 😭

PS really glad to have found this community on lemmy, not sure why I didn't think to look sooner!

I hate my sim carrying loads of stuff for all sorts of reasons (I think it creates lag, I hate having to scroll through a load of items to find what I want, there are bugs where the whole inventory disappears when you do certain things and that seems to happens less when they carry less stuff), so I try to keep the bare minimum on my sim:

  • Hikon QX40di Gladiator camera
  • Collection Helper
  • Potent Invigorating Elixirs (means you never need to sleep)
  • Vials of Potent Bliss (cures loneliness and stress)
  • Wish Enhancing Serums (doubles all wish points, including lifetime wish for 24hr)
  • Jars of Potent Friendship (make almost any sim a good friend, except some NPCs like paparazzi)
  • Showers in a can (quick clean)
  • Pemmican (quick meal + special moodlet)
  • Death flower
  • Flame fruit (gives positive moodlet)

But I do like to keep things just in case (as you do), so in their house I have different treasure chests for different things like seeds, gems, metals, inventions, relics, etc where I store most things (this allows for keeping much more junk which also potentially creates lag, but then, so do most things in the game lol and this way it isn't cluttering my space), and then my family inventory in buy mode is mostly free gifts my sim gets from being a celebrity, which I used to keep but now mostly sell.

So, does anyone else have these kinds of systems, or do other people generally not give it much thought at all? 😂

 

Full length trailer for Sims 5?

Or last ditch attempt to make Sims 4 look more appealing?

I don't see them going back further, and as someone who never moved past Sims 3 (and who generally hates this lazy genre of movie, but especially when it's based on a game that has such open and individually adaptable play), this has very little appeal to me personally.

Thoughts from fellow simmers?

 

I used to at most do a basic floor plan in ms paint on a 64x64 grid I had saved lol but the more I play around with constrainfloorelevation and the endless design options it opens up, the more I find I need to plan, and the harder it is to get my head around what I should do first, because it becomes so much harder to add and change things later on.

I just completely scrapped a lot I'd been trying to figure out for ages because I realised I'd screwed something up it would take starting almost from scratch to fix, I do want to start again, and to avoid this happening again I've tried laying it out in sketches and diagrams but with having both the terrain and the levels of the build shifted and sometimes overlapping (or, in the case of basement and terrain - not allowed to overlap, which is mostly what's messing me up lol), it gets so confusing and my brain just fries 😂

Probably just going to have to jump in and try to figure it out in practice.
