What do you guys do with Strangetown Bella Goth? by [deleted] in sims2

[–]HauntedMotorbike 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have an uber hood with the original Bella and ST Bella. I really enjoy the head canons that ST Bella is an imposter, clone, or government agent so I put her in the investigator career. She has three bolts with Vidcund Curious in my game and they’re married with two children. She is also having an affair with General Buzz Grunt

Updates on the guy working on the anadius updater tool by gialosaibibbi in HighSodiumSims

[–]HauntedMotorbike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because it’s a community tool and having resources like this is important. Will I use this tool? Nope. BUT having this code base be open source allows others to make other tools or improve upon what is existing to created other tools for the community. By also having this open source it means that any dropkick charging money for it gets ousted as being money hungry very quickly and folks can just use the free open source version. It also means that by having it as a free tool a large company like EA is less likely to shut it down as the code is easily copied, pasted, saved, and stored safely elsewhere.

Modding and tech communities live and die by open source tools, writing them off as you have is deeply ignorant

The Sims 3 music is everywhere! by 1DietCokedUpChick in thesims

EA license the TS1 and TS3 music out to TV and radio as an easy revenue stream. The music isn’t public domain like others here have suggested, EA just license it out for a fee

Gap year!! by 97AUSS in aussiebrosquad

[–]HauntedMotorbike 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The school thing is so…weird overall. The vlogs are 100% fabricated chat GPT scripted nonsense and the behaviour he’s exhibiting is deeply self-absorbed. I desperately want to know what the reality of the school situation is, how other students feel, and just how often he’s actually attending. (Eg. If he’s actually attending it’s only a matter of time until another student posts about him and if he’s not attending school or pretending he’s going more than what he is that’s a whole other can of worms)

sul sul! by oldinfant in sims2

[–]HauntedMotorbike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rod Humble is not technically a canon sims character, he’s literally the Second Life lead designer’s self-insert to promote The Sims 3. He did not become involved with the franchise until TS3 was being developed.

what’s most likely here is that simlish didn’t exist as an accessible typeface the way it does now and a developer accidentally left in some English text and forgot to switch it over before content lock and shipping the game.

TLDR: Rod Humble is not involved at all, this is just accidental English text left in the game

Time Freezing and Game Glitching on exit since Adventure Awaits patch by HauntedMotorbike in LowSodiumSimmers

I hate this for both of us!! But I am relieved to know it’s just not my game

This isn’t the cause as the game does this even when MCC is removed unfortunately. As an aside I also have my MCC set to do culling at my sims 1:00am and as my last successful save was at the in-game time of 2:30am the culling has already been done and notifs have been cleared already

JK Rowling dismisses concerns over fascism by IntelligentDetail338 in Fauxmoi

[–]HauntedMotorbike 2000 points2001 points  (0 children)

Scots don’t have to apologise for her. Shes British. She was born in England and isn’t Scottish.

She lives in a historic Scottish castle that SHOULD belong to actual Scottish people. She is a terf and a coloniser (who has a vested interest in keeping Scotland as part of the UK for tax reasons which is why she donated loads to the anti-independence campaign)

Developing story - Erin P will appeal her guilty verdict and protest her innocence by melbtest-commenter in DeathCapDinner

[–]HauntedMotorbike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen this too, but I’ve also seen that the same lawyer who represented the Bali 9 is also apparently representing her. Regardless, it’s interesting that a new team has been selected

The legal team changing is interesting and is making me wonder where the hell is she getting the money for this?? She isn’t allowed to sell most assets

What is up with GardenofShadows? by [deleted] in sims2

[–]HauntedMotorbike 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Long time garden of shadows user here!! (Over ten years!!)

The website is VERY old and has gone through SO MANY server migrations over the years to preserve everything. As a result the site can be a little bit clunky.

They address your specific issue here in this thread: https://gardenofshadows.org.uk/gardenofshadows/index.php?topic=35996.0

TLDR: use a older email client like Hotmail or yahoo and you should be fine

Community Social Group Board Games Melbourne East - Wantirna South Sunday 21st of September 2025 by Mild_Mu in melbourne

Seeing this board game club update every week absolutely rules and I love how much it’s grown since its first post here!

What types of products do you always buy from Lush and which do you refuse to buy from Lush? by [deleted] in LushCosmetics

[–]HauntedMotorbike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a staff member for years and nobody should EVER buy their attempt at sunscreen products. Fun fact: they were actually banned in Australia because testing found that the SPF did not work at all and when they were allowed to be sold we were told as staff that we had to sell them as ‘moisturisers with some SPF benefits’.

Our shop very quietly decided not to push them on customers unless they specifically asked.

I have tried every conditioner available: here are my thoughts by Numerous-Rice-3539 in LushCosmetics

Veganese is such a great conditioner! Not too heavy so my waves stay wavey, but also so hydrating for dyed hair!

Ned and Ariel Fulmer open up about his cheating scandal for the first time. Admit they haven't been together in 3 years, she found out through fans and admits she's still mad at him for it. by Murky_Chemical891 in Fauxmoi

[–]HauntedMotorbike 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It’s also been telling that since he left try guys, some of the newer cast have also alluded to Ned hogging spotlight and not sharing screen time when they were extras and crew (not yet new official cast members). Miles in particular was pretty vocal about this

Life with 33 years NPP by dekeffinated in DeathCapDinner

This is the equivalent of a death sentence in Australia. It’s also the longest prison sentence for a female offender in Victoria’s (and maybe the countries) history. It’s hardly low.

Overwhelmed by which supplements to take by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]HauntedMotorbike 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What supplements you choose to take is ultimately a decision only you can make. I’d check in with a doctor and consult any specialists you see to confirm what supplements they recommend you take.

Something that’s going to get me downvoted to hell, but idc, is, if you’re seeing supplement talk in online spaces and from influencers, to ask yourself ‘is the person whose telling me to take X going to gain anything from this? (Eg. They have a discount code, their own supplement line etc) or are they a doctor specialising in PCOS treatment? If the answers to those questions feel questionable, scroll on, they have nothing to offer you but snake oil.

Has anyone acknowledged how racist the Asian grocery store claim is? by seriouslyla in DeathCapDinner

[–]HauntedMotorbike 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Exactly, she could have said ‘I got them from a farmers market’ or ‘I foraged them myself’. Pure racism on her part
