building the coziest autumn house possible in the sims

[@lindseylocker]

Honestly, I mixing wood tones makes more sense to me. I've been to very few houses in real life where people had matching wood tones in any of their rooms; usually, only in primary bedrooms if they bought a bedroom set. It's more common to purchase/acquire various items of furniture throughout your life, and they don't always match! That makes it more realistic and homey.

[@sdhartley74]

@@lindseylocker I always have my sim's furniture mismatched. I don't know many people with entire matching sets of anything.

[@princessjellyfish98]

I feel like terrain manipulation really only works on really big lots where you can make a gradual slope from the outside of the lot to the inside. Even after they added terrain tools, the game is just so FLAT! They never add in big elevation changes in the world that spread into the lot so you have nothing to work off of!

[@sirgaykrovos]

right?? like, I know there are places like that on earth (there are cities that are that plane), but it's not everywhere!! my dream is them fixing the flatness and the streets+houses (when they don't touch and stuff), but at this point idk how they would even do that

[@Casisgreen]

I was so exited when they added it cause my irl house literally half in a hill, so despointed you can’t do that

[@aerialdive]

unfortunately the game is based on the states, and the states is considerably Flat.

Yes! Just adding to this, for absentee ballots, find an official ballot drop-off location instead of mailing it in if you're able, so you can know that it made it there in time to be counted- USPS has been bogged down. My township hall where regular voting happens has one!

[@Blaire_Shoe]

And if you've already sent it via post, don't worry! You can track your ballot online to see when it's marked as received!

[@princesslaisha2615]

I'm just a bit confused. I'd vote because I want the best person to run the country and take care of it as best as they can. But for the longest time, I've always believed that our vote doesn't rlly count. So that's why I don't vote.

Something no one talks about is the fact there are subtitles on every video, lilsimsie I love you for this ❤

[@brightsalot]

Kayla has a friend that she pays to do them for every video, so they’re actually accurate and not done by the auto-caption system which usually has a lot of errors. She explained it when that friend came to visit her, I just can’t remember friend’s name! I appreciate their dedication to providing quality and accurate captions tho! 🩷

I am a Canadian and in the past years we have been worried about our southern cousins. Especially when it comes to reproductive rights. It is so sad to see citizens deal with officials,(who are supposed to be working in their best interests), instead blocking access to medical care.

Also, my best friend from high school would have died for that master bedroom with the celestial wallpaper (celestial pattern stuff was really big for a while, and it was her absolute favorite thing)!
