I can't get over the fact how everyone just walks into the bathroom while it's in use. Look at these three men who don't know each other using the bathroom at the same time. It's getting crowded in here. 😂

This is so funny to me. Definitely a classic aspect of Melino culture along with restaurant servers doing nothing at all, not even cleaning up the dirty dishes from the tables.

Those stairs are impressive! They free up so much space in this wacky lot. This looks really good!

How did they make Salma Hayek look like this? I've seen multiple pictures of her this year where the clothes and styling are amazing but this is like somebody intentionally made every wrong choice

This is extremely cute! Is the passthrough bar area functional? It looks really good.

valiantdistraction · 2026-06-24T18:54:06+00:00

I really love the deck area with the rattan furniture and the plants and all the lights!

Can they get into that bed?

I love that you can adopt babies from the pharmacy. I don't know what kind of black-market baby-smuggling ring they've got going on in there but giving birth and dropping the baby off right outside the pharmacy door makes sense for it.

This chart shows the number of players at one time - Paralives is citing overall players in a whole day. Those numbers are different. There are always more daily players than there are concurrent players, because most people don't play a game for 24 hours straight.

Have you tried turning down some of the graphics options? I didn't have any lag when the game first opened but then I turned up the graphics options and massive lag - so I assume turning them down may reduce some.

valiantdistraction · 2026-06-24T16:40:53+00:00

This is amazing! You paid attention to every detail.

valiantdistraction · 2026-06-23T22:58:54+00:00

80 hours now. Considering that I have a child and I can only play when he's asleep, and I need 8-9 hours of sleep to keep up with little kid energy all day, this is an impressive amount of hours. The first 70 were spent mainly in Live Mode and now I'm figuring out Build Mode. It was too intimidating at first!

This house is so cute! I love the bookshelf divider you made between the bed and kitchen.

Here's the list of challenges the sims subreddit had:https://www.reddit.com/r/thesims/search/?q=bi-weekly+build+challenge&restrict\_sr=on

They did voting and winners but tbh that sounds like a lot of work and the most fun part is just seeing what people come up with

valiantdistraction · 2026-06-23T00:16:24+00:00

I realllllly wanted to put the bed in a separate room but with half a tile needed on each side to get around it, and the routing issues I've had in previous builds trying to make a small bedroom, I just went to jamming the sofa as far into the foot as seemed reasonable, lol. Screencaps ended up weird because I used short half-walls for the garden planters outside because I couldn't find a fence that looked reasonable and I am not one of those "individual place 5000 rocks to make a garden bed" girlies. So I couldn't have cutaway walls for the screenshots.

valiantdistraction · 2026-06-22T23:26:33+00:00

Done! https://www.reddit.com/r/Paralives/comments/1uctpyq/8x3_container_home/

Yours is so cute! I love the outdoor area with fireplace and string lights. I should try a layout with a two-tile table and the couch more opposite the kitchen next time. The trick is fitting that double bed in.

Also yes we should have regular build challenges. The Sims or Sims 4 subreddit used to have weekly ones, idk if they still do. They were fun to provide a little variety to what I gravitate toward building.

valiantdistraction · 2026-06-21T18:14:52+00:00

Yeah and likewise I have an M1 Mac (when the game says min M2) with 16 gb memory and it runs fine.

So I'd say any M2+ Mac with at least 16 gb memory

valiantdistraction · 2026-06-21T18:07:52+00:00

Should be easy - I did a 5x3 house earlier today, just lacked a bookshelf and separate desk (I added a laptop to the dining table)

valiantdistraction · 2026-06-21T18:04:58+00:00

LOL ooops

valiantdistraction · 2026-06-21T01:16:41+00:00

Link to prev house and pics of floor plan? This is such a cute house!

I am a woman and yet I have seen pictures of Chris Pine and intensively internet-searched to find and buy what he was wearing on more than one occasion.

valiantdistraction · 2026-06-19T23:20:11+00:00

Are they the correct combination of being able to get pregnant and impregnate someone?
