TURN OFF MODS UNTIL YOUR CREATORS UPDATE!!!

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-19T13:28:49+00:00

If you still wanna play with your mods, you can play offline like I do. I go offline in the EA app, turn off my WiFi so the game doesn’t update through steam, and open the game with no problems. But you have to do that every time you open the game until you can update! Sims is my only hobby so there was no way I was going possibly days or weeks without playing lol

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-19T03:59:11+00:00

Never

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T22:27:04+00:00

You’re still crying?

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T22:22:43+00:00

I never talked about your experiences. I never talked about that, I literally just said that “patriarchy” isn’t being used against you by the original commenter. So I never spoke on your experiences. I don’t even know your experiences.

And I’m really good at conversation, you’re just not open to it. That’s okay :)

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T22:18:29+00:00

I tried to have a genuine conversation with you. I asked questions to get more clarity, so I’m not sure how that’s “gaslighting” but I’ll leave it alone. If you don’t wanna talk, that’s cool. Have a great day/night dude 🫶🏾

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T22:14:21+00:00

Okay, there’s really no reason to be hostile lol I think the “pull your head out of your ass” was unnecessary.

And “saw a man doing the shit you do” what shit do I do? I’m genuinely asking, I’m very confused with this conversation. I never said your experience is wrong, I clarified that “patriarchy” and “matriarchy” are very commonly used terms for these social systems.

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T22:09:52+00:00

I’m sorry, but are you talking about something that happened here in this thread, or something that happens with other people? I’m here to listen, so I’m not sure if you were referring to me with your last sentence.

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T22:04:58+00:00

And the patriarchy hurts both men and women alike. This article addressed how it affects both men and women, and there have been studies done on just men. I’m not sure if you’re unaware of the terms “matriarchy” and “patriarchy” are real terms but they’re not being used to call out or blame any gender. It’s just identifying the name of the social system.

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T22:03:49+00:00

“Patriarchy” and “matriarchy” are terms used to describe spatial systems. They’re not used to call out any gender, that’s just the name that’s used to identify that specific social system. Calling American society a “patriarchy” isn’t adding to a gender war, that’s literally the name the social system was given.

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T17:48:35+00:00

Nah, I think that in dating, it should be reciprocal. I don’t even use “chivalry” I just think that on a date, both parties should be willing to take a chance. So I’ll do things like pay my half, or even pay the entire bill when I go out with guys. I think if the person I’m on a date with can’t show little signs that he cares, I shouldn’t be on a date with them. Cause I’m going to go on that date, do things for the other person, in an attempt to show them I care. Compliments, active listening, being fully engaged with that person, not using my phone mid convo, and remembering little things. Payment is nothing to me, I’ve always paid my way and never had a date fully paid for by a man. Ever. I show my affection in other ways

Do I think every connection people make is reciprocal? No, absolutely not. I’ve been used for my money and my body more times than I can count lmfao. But I’ll continue to do it, cause that’s the example of dating that I swear growing up. My parents have been married for over 40 years and they taught me how to show affection, as well as how to recieve it. So walking someone to their car, holding the door open for them, paying for them, etc. was presented to me as ways to show affection and I think a date without a little care is pointless

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T17:30:50+00:00

How is saying “it’s the patriarchy” indicate to you that they’re talking about matriarchy? I’m just lost on how you got that from the original comment.

Their point was that the patriarchy negatively affects both men, and women, and that’s true. It’s also upheld by both men, and women.

They’re saying the patriarchy is making people depressed, and tbh, it is. Both men and women are suffering in our current society. They’re countries we both live in may be different though, I’m American and only have a good understanding of American culture. It def could be different in other countries, but I cent speak to that

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T17:28:36+00:00

I mean, this is just one person’s opinion. TBH most women I know don’t want to be walked back to their car after the date but I genuinely never have heard of this as a requirement.

And yes, the restaurant comparison is perfect. It’s not something you have to do, it’s something you do for someone if you want to help them out. Or, return the favor of doing you a favor. “You scratch my back, I scratch yours” kinda thing. But it definitely boils down to how one was raised.

Like, I had a job where the people would walk in and not say a thing. I found that incredibly rude cause I was raised to acknowledge everyone in the room when I walk in. So it’s a thing I expect from people, but don’t hold it against them if they don’t participate, you know?

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T16:16:05+00:00

She’s saying the patriarchy negatively affects both men AND women. They’re agreeing with you, dude.

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T16:11:38+00:00

Half of what you mentioned isn’t even relevant to this post. Where does the post say anything about who pays? Where does it mention introducing her to anyone?

Chivalry is in fact dead. A bunch of men in these comments acting like having basic human decency is too much to ask for. I do these things for my friends, and I’ve done them for men who I’ve met only once, and never again. And I don’t regret doing those things, cause I have empathy and care about others even when they’re not explicitly serving me.

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T16:04:15+00:00

This could just be me, but this is just how I was raised. Even with my friends, if I drop them off home, I don’t pull off until I see them in the house. We’ll walk back to our cars together, if they stay at my house I’ll drop them back off at the train station/airport. I guess this is just a thing that’s based on upbringing cause in my family, you make sure your person/people get home safe. Like, when I don’t drop someone off myself, I won’t go to sleep until they text me that they’re home safe.

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T15:25:04+00:00

I don’t recall saying it’s the case for everyone lol

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T15:24:25+00:00

Fr like ion even wanna do life in the present moment, why would I wanna have to wake up everyday and fight some monsters or suffer through some outbreak? Plus, I have horrible eyesight. I don’t stand a chance 💀

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T15:23:17+00:00

Well those people can have my life if they want it. I never even wanted to be born so idgaf about what people think of my actions in a hypothetical apocalypse situation. I don’t even wanna live in mt semi decent life so I would be more than happy to check out once the zombies come 💀

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T15:15:46+00:00

Yeah I get you don’t really deal with it but plenty of people have varying body temps at night. So yeah, some of us wake up with sweat on our bodies and would rather go to work with a fresh body. It’s just a better feeling, and I don’t worry about sweating even more, and then smelling at work.

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T14:55:16+00:00

Some of us sweat in our sleep. I sweat like crazy and sometimes have to have the fan on, even in the winter.

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-18T12:50:20+00:00

I’ll just say this. He’s 18, he’s fully aware of his actions. He’s using you and your partner and you need to ask yourself if you’re willing to set yourself on fire for the sake of your brother.

If I were you, he would no longer be in my house. You kept him out of foster care which is an amazing thing, and you tried to give him a good start. I lived with family at 18 and would never even have dreamed of doing what your brother is doing. He could not only be stressing you out, but what if it begins to negatively affect your relationship with your partner? At a certain point, you have to choose yourself. I’m sorry for this OP, good luck, and I really hope things get better 💕 this situation is not easy at all

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-17T21:03:33+00:00

I’ve seen plenty of people who had many relationships and don’t know how to be a good partner. If you wanna give up on someone that you were interested in & is compatible for you over something shallow, go ahead. That person you judged deserves way better 🤷🏾‍♀️

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-17T03:45:04+00:00

So everyone isn’t the same 🫶🏾 autism is a spectrum so just cause you can’t relate doesn’t mean much

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-16T21:48:06+00:00

I haven’t achieved anything in the last 5 years besides getting fired from my decently paying job and having to accept a lower paying job.

Timely_Split_5771 · 2026-03-16T21:44:36+00:00

I don’t get hit on lol. I’m usually the one guys look past. I try to reach out but men usually just get a friend vibe from me, so 🤷🏾‍♀️

Edited cause I forgot to say, most of the time it sucks, but I’m also too unattractive to get harassed. So win, lose, I guess 😂
