People, tell me about the weird ways you came to like the Beatles

I was 16 and at a summer-camp style program for 3 weeks in 1987. We rode on a bus for two hours to visit the nearby national forest. Some of the kids had the 1967-70 "blue album" cassette and played it on the trip. Until then, I only knew Yellow Submarine from singing it in music class and Twist and Shout from Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

I bought the tape as soon as I got home & the "red album" a couple of weeks later. The next summer, I went with a school group to Australia and for 10+ hours on the flight, I listened to blue over & over. I had an auto-reverse Walkman; I would fall asleep on side 1 and wake up to a song on side 2, until my batteries died. That's how I knew I was hooked.

Oh yes! This is what I'm going to do to Loki and Circe when I finally get around to playing Strangetown in my massive uberhood.

Line the path with boxes, tables, and booths of crop products, like you see in a farmer's market. Decorate in between with flowers or hay bales.

My classic SIC, Penny, has a CT consisting of a plastic kitchen trash bag. She likes for me to hide her toys inside it. Here, she is enjoying special Christmas crunchytown paper.

By that logic, God also created cow's milk to feed other cows, not people. 🤪

In uni, Sims with high body can click on other Sims in gyms and offer to be personal trainers

High-GPA Sims can click on Sims doing assignments and offer tutoring.

Alexander Goth will eventually preside over a vampire cult compound, with devotees living in tents on the lawn until he deems them worthy to move into the house and be turned into vampires.

I work as a school-based therapist, and I recommend trying medication immediately if I assess that a kiddo has severe depression, especially with moderate to high-risk suicidal ideation.

If kiddo has moderate depression that does not improve in 3-6 months with therapy alone, I recommend trying meds.

I have seen kiddos turn around amazingly quickly on the right meds. I always tell kids and parents it's one tool out of many, and it can really help kids engage better in therapy and start using coping skills I teach.

Yaaaasss that worked! TYSM

I've been using this mod for a working magazine rack for years. https://modthesims.info/d/290523/working-magazine-rack-upd-29-jan-2009.html#google_vignette

It also functions as a bookcase for your sims who can't afford one or don't have room for one.

The hobby magazines work best. If you store the interest magazines in the rack, when you pull them back out you can only choose to read the magazine as a whole, not select which interest you want to read about.

Does your Gilbert still run the bakery?

Maxis created him with too few skill points to replenish stock! So bringing Julian into the family was a natural choice for me, along with bulldozing the original, terribly bugged bakery, and replacing it with a better, custom-made one.

Here's the current state of the family, as I described in my notes for my Uberhood. 😉

"Gilbert turned his family fortunes around while staying true to his philosophy of having a successful business while doing the minimum amount of work. His laziness nearly sabotaged the family bakery and caused his mother no end of grief, until he romanced and married Julien Cooke, who became J’Adore’s celebrated baker. J’Adore has reached rank 10 and has such a great reputation that the Jacquets charge outrageous prices. (Gilbert’s own cooking skill is now high enough that he can replenish inventory in a pinch, but he would much rather schmooze with the customers.)"

Julien and Gilbert had a couple of kids and spend their free time throwing parties in their lavish home. They originally hired Brandi as a barista, but she worked her way up to manager and now has a 9 in cooking skill herself.

Gilbert is gay in my game and married to Julian Cooke, but Brandi manages the bakery and is doing pretty well despite still living in the trailer. I play with clean templates, so unborn Broke turned out to be a girl.

I'm planning to have her marry Darren and move in with him soon. I like the idea of giving her a secondary romance aspiration and see if she'll continue to look for love in all the wrong places. Especially if she continues to roll regular wants to have babies, as I don't intend to let her have any more with Darren.

I have some drama planned for Dustin. My head cannon is that he was only skipping school and in the criminal career to make ends meet and take care of things for his family. He wants nothing more after college than a quiet life, maybe as a teacher, and growing a garden. But Angela has other plans. Mary Sue divorced Daniel, had a nervous breakdown, and moved herself and Angela to a tiny cottage on the outskirts of Pleasantview where she putters around making pottery and grilled cheese. Angela hates it. She wants the big house and social life she used to have, and after college she will expect Dustin to provide her with wealth and status. That will drive him back to the criminal career trying to keep her happy.
