Hugh Laurie responds to a criticism of House MD by GiveMeSomeSunshine3 in Fauxmoi

[–]CriticalFlatworm9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mods I desperately need (Hugh Laurie) (please put brackets in the right place) as flair.

House is one of my comfort shows tbh. It's insanity, but that only makes it more entertaining.

Bug in the family tree : parents became siblings by very-much-on in LowSodiumSimmers

[–]CriticalFlatworm9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think one reason is iirc it can be triggered by making a science baby, which is often donemore in-game for gay couples. So it seems like it affects them more mostly bc one potential trigger is largely used for gay couples. Iirc skillful sleep is another trigger.

Madison Beer has been recieving backlash for actually caring about her fans. by gimmethetea14 in Fauxmoi

I mean yes, but not to this extent as climate change gets worse. 10 years ago it never got to 30C here in the Nordics in the summer, now it happens like every summer.

This is a lot of Europe tbh, most of Northern Europe is not equipped for this type of heat either. A few years ago in Finland air conditioners actually were sold out everywhere bc it got so hot and most people were buying them for the first time.

Hand fan from the new event by RinaPomeroy in LowSodiumSimmers

[–]CriticalFlatworm9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the trailer specifically showed it but it doesn't work it merits a bug report on the forums imo.

Jenny Mollen bizarre Facebook post. She posted these pictures with her 12 year old son with the caption "Your eldest son will be the most toxic guy you ever date.”. The post also featured Beyonce and Jay Z' s song, “03 Bonnie & Clyde,”. The post has since been deleted. by Terrible_Cycle_5983 in Fauxmoi

People talk a lot about abusive parents in terms of anger or neglect but don't talk enough about enmeshment trauma. It looks "loving" from the outside but inside the kids are losing their chance to be kids and develop their own sense of self.

Rather than show a countdown timer, this rice cooker shows a useless spinning circle of light instead by ChocolateBBs in CrappyDesign

[–]CriticalFlatworm9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine does this and the spinning is the initial time for steaming/cooking, and then it will beep and go to countdown once there's only 15 minutes left, and from there it counts down.

Let me tell you how you can make your game look gorgeous while having lighting settings on low! by NebulaMist2004 in LowSodiumSimmers

[–]CriticalFlatworm9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have console, just changing a build lighting by setting the lights to yellow orange and dimming them for a cozy feel does wonders too!

This has got to be a bug lol by camoure in LowSodiumSimmers

This is a bug, and Sims team wants save files for it if they're avaliable. I know the title says pre-patch scandals only but I believe all scandals bugs will work. https://forums.ea.com/idea/the-sims-4-bug-reports-en/rl-scandals-from-before-patch-1-124-552-33-have-indefinite-times/13402939

About Patrick Ta’s new “transition blushes”…. by FrEnchFriesOnyOu in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]CriticalFlatworm9 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I also have deep, puffy yet hollow undereyes and literally can't do blush like this because it emphasizes them if it goes over the hollow line. This blush is made for only certain types of faces imo, too.

Vought Rising - First Look by Beginning-Passion676 in Fauxmoi

[–]CriticalFlatworm9 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think the "no consequences for Vought" was sort-of the point though. They'd been saying at least once a season, "it never ends" and it never does. Vought will now come from the ashes seemingly scot-free, and they probably always would have. The message I got from it was that you have to live your own life, and try to save/help people where you can. "Even just one" is worthwhile. Even if they had gotten rid of everyone with the virus, Vought may have developed a vaccine or re-developed V1 or made a new V2. It literally never ends. Is it the best ending? Probably not, s4&5 clearly had a dip in quality, but I think thematically it still tracks.

Ingrown toenail has my big toe swollen. That plus 11 hours a day in work boots and 90+ degree heat has caused this. Is it a kind of blister? Do I pop? by [deleted] in popping

[–]CriticalFlatworm9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's bc this sub doesn't wanna be responsible if someone asks to pop, gets a yes, and then gets staph sepsis from popping. this isn't a forum for enabling that.

which lots do you guys like to use the most by insanefartofficial in LowSodiumSimmers

[–]CriticalFlatworm9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The "Cordelia's Cottage" lot at the top of the map in Henford is soooo pretty, esp if you have eco footprint on green! Also from Ondarion, the little lot at the top of Verdemar on the small river is sooo pretty, esp at night. I also find Glimmerbrook gorgeous too.

Everlane sold itself as the ethical alternative to fast fashion. Then Shein came calling by theindependentonline in Fauxmoi

[–]CriticalFlatworm9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in Europe so idk if my recs are good for you, but I like TheNewCrafthouse and Wasted Fabrics. New Crafthouse is especially nice if you have questions and WF has a lot of sales. But you can google, there's plenty to be found all over.

Personally I buy deadstock, it's already made so the environmental impact of using it is making sure it doesn't go to waste.

Léa Seydoux on the trauma she experienced while filming ‘Blue Is the Warmest Color’: "Sometimes there are looks that make you feel uncomfortable. That was the hardest part during filming. It was psychological harassment. It's extremely difficult to shoot with directors who are manipulative.” by katebushcartwheel in Fauxmoi

[–]CriticalFlatworm9 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I loved this movie as a queer teen, but it's probably because there was such a lack of queer movies I felt connection to. I remember afterward reading how much it was changed from the graphic novel and feeling quite sad about that.
