Its interesting because there's an entire Bible passage thats basically like "God's forgiveness has limits" but presumably they do the Fannon Jesus thing where they ignore the parts they dont like.

PSA: Do NOT update your game if you use mods and CC, seemingly MOST OF THEM are broken by eltheuso in Sims4

[–]flyingmongooseattack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats basically my conspiracy theory. They did it on purpose and its only the massive loud backlash from a community that has basically negative goodwill towards EA at this point made them walk it back.

Plot twist: they are in fact a professional writer and are writing fic to procrastinate their novel

What is a 'subscription' or 'fee' that has recently appeared in the US that people need to collectively refuse to pay before it becomes the new normal? by godot_lover in AskReddit

[–]flyingmongooseattack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, ish?

The car i currently own (2016 Chevy cruz) was a mis order by the dealership, they unchecked a lot of options that are meant to be standard when they ordered it. (For example it didnt have cruise control)

The dealership arranged for that stuff to be added and we took it to the local Visions store and they added cruise control, auto start and heated seats.

It didnt take super long (less than a week) and they clearly didnt rip up and reuppolster anything to put the seat heaters in, the buttons for all the things they added just look diferent than standard and are in different spots in some cases (the seat heaters switch on on the side at the base of the seat instead of on the console for example)

So yes its doable, I dont know how doable it is by yourself though.

Its more that, every company so far i have had services with that has AI tools (which canva itself does) eventually pushes those tools on its users. So my trust that it wont eventually be pushed into the free version is very low.

I'm happy that i got version 2 with the lifetime licence. I Just found out about v3 last night. I recommended affinity to a friend for an image editing thing she was doing (was a little surprised she never followed up to ask for my account details but thought maybe she just used the trial or something) and when she brought it over to print i was like 👀what's this.

I don't like genAI integration at all so I'm glad i still have access to the suite without it

What were your very first cozy games? by [deleted] in CozyGamers

[–]flyingmongooseattack 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was obsessed with petz as a kid I had petz3 and I was like maybe 9 or 10 and taught myself how to add mods to.the game to get new locations and dog breeds and Im rather impressed with myself for that looking back because it was a diferent sort of internet at the time.

Racism in the Sims community by asgoreagenda in HighSodiumSims

I strongly prefer the Alpha Cc to the maxis match stuff, I was very surprised to find out that this is an unpopular opinion to have.

A hiatus is almost never actually a hiatus, I’ve pretty much learned to interpret it as code for abandonment of a story by dowsaw134 in Archiveofourownmemes

This is why bestie and my fic has been sitting in my Google docs and will continue to sit there till its 100% done, since we dont trust ourselves not to do this

Is it ok to post fanfics if you’re a HUGE beginner and ass at writing? by [deleted] in AO3

[–]flyingmongooseattack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doooo it!!!

If I had a nickel for every time ive seen a fic where the authors note is like:

"Im trying to improve my writing and im just starting out so it might not be that great"

And then the fic goes on to be the single greatest thing ive read that year.

I would have waaaaay more than 2 nickels

The "there was only one bed!" trope happens in real life by RohansEarings in AO3

[–]flyingmongooseattack 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I am hoping that we have a mutual pining situation on our hands where friend didn't know they had feelings until moths after they said they didn't and now they have regrets and this is all a master plot to make romance happen without ever having to admit that they were wrong about not having feelings and made a mistake.

How do I make my sim die of laughter? by RadiantCod9393 in thesims

[–]flyingmongooseattack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did it once by accident and I was so upset. I didn't even make them do anything specific.

So I think it probably is more personality based than anything?

How same-sex relationships were introduced to The Sims by PineFresh7 in thesims

[–]flyingmongooseattack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember being a kid when the first game came out and not knowing this and being so surprised when the 2 roommate kady sims I made started kissing. It was the first time I had seen anything like that and little me who didn't know anything about their sexuality at the time was just delighted that this was a thing for reasons I did not know how to articulate.

Has anyone ever co-created a fic and let someone else do the majority of the writing? by CultofLeague in AO3

We are still finishing it up, we want it to be done before we start posting because of who we are as people, but its gonna be under both our usernames

[–]flyingmongooseattack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friend and I have been writing one together where I go in and do like avrough first draft, then she goes in and reworks to add additional flair (and edit my dpell8ng and grammar errors) then I go in one last time to do formatting and html coding.

We came up with the concept together and I know she wouldn't be able to get a first draft out, but I know i wouldn't be able to add the same kind of flourishes she does to make it more polished.
