Kelly and Semaj (Turner) for The Sims 5. Edit: idk why I'm talking lmao, I only play The Sims 4 because I got it for free 😂😭 (help me im broke)

[@evaclaire1930]

ok but if judith makes her husbands sleep in a separate bedroom because "boys have cooties"...then maybe she's having an affair with the maid instead of the poolboy amirite???

[@stealingyoursoda5476]

In my game i got her together with lilith vatore 😂 they make v pretty kids

Yeah as Kayak was telling that story about Judith and her trophy husbands I got my closeted lesbian bells ringing.😂🏳️‍🌈

"where she paints her french women" that's Big lesbian vibes

I also make her lesbian hahaha

[@misssteak1290]

that would explain why she's always the main love interest to my female sim everytime i play the acting career

i would like to head canon judith as a sapphic queen who was forced in the closet when she started her rise to fame, hense all the failed marriges and the his and hers suites.

[@Blndi3]

[@lf3862]

peyt in my one game with her she’s married to a woman lol, started off simply as a protege then they liked each other a lot actually I was surprised how Judith took to the sim and their romance level grew so quickly without me even having to try, but yeah they’re pretty cute together and just spend time in the hers suite instead haha ;)

[@atrinoisa]

My fiance thinks it's weird I can name sims that walk by in my game...but it's always the same characters! How is that weird? It's not any different than watching a TV show that has a cast of characters and knowing their names...no one thinks THAT'S weird...

[@alexopal7830]

RIGHT Because I speak to every sim that I like that walks past my house lmao “Hey Bob Pancake”

[@KyrstOak]

If I had a fiancé thought that was weird, I would comment about how it's weird that he knows the names of the characters in his favourite TV show.

[@kinseylise8595]

It's probably because your fiance doesn't realize that it's always the same people, or that you don't know literally every single one, just the most common, most iconic, or favorite ones. Your fiance might also think that new sims are generated for every game, in which case knowing their names would be surprising.

[@YouKnowImOnMyPeriodYah]

Because video games have a weird stigma still 💀

[@sweatpantsprincess3239]

I grew up using ModTheSims and TheSimsResource, so the reliance on independent blogs is wild to me! Anyway Nancy isn't as iconic as Bella, fight me ;*

Lana CC shouldn't shut down, everyone on the site is protesting the ban, also everyone is backing up their blogs on a few different sites that are very very similar to Tumblr. Where she is such a big active blog she should swap over. Also, I don't believe it's being entirely removed my NSFW blog still hasn't been flagged or taken down as of yet. However, Tumblr does have a habit of not listening to their user base... As a community, Tumblr has all decided to stay logged out of their accounts when the update goes live. Yahoo is to blame here, ever since they brought out the original owners the site has really gone downhill

[@jewelraiza1514]

TheOddBallFailure i didnt check tumblr for two months because i was like _reaaaaally_ busy so i checked it on winter break and found out that my favorite nsfw blog was taken down because of the new guidelines

[@courtneyj9906]

Tbh I got tired of Tumblr when they made you have to change the password on your blog. I had more than one with different emails and it sucked.

[@paradisiak]

I never posted nudity and my blog has been flagged since the day the ban happened. I’ve tried to get it reviewed and have gotten no response. Screw tumblr lmao

[@ayaikrimah2795]

Inner circle is my favorite lot in Del Sol Valley. I grew up in California, and It's honestly a spot-on interpretation of an older Californian home. It reminds me of my childhood.

[@IFYOUCOULDFLY]

Working on my quarantine finals as I'm watching this video. It's actually comforting listening to other people stress about their finals, bc now that I have to take them at home without other students to vent to it's pretty isolating. So thanks for your stress rant!

[@winterwindle1160]

“and that’s how Nancy Landgraab ruined my life.” this is a story you tell when you’re wine drunk after a mental breakdown, where you just start off on the kitchen floor muttering insults until someone notices you and asks you if you’re okay out of pity.

[@princessjellyfish98]

The real fake simmers out there are big youtubers who make three episodes of a sims 4 let’s play and are confused the whole time

I feel like EA houses get worse and worse with each expansion and new town. EDIT:woah! 200 likes 😱 EDIT: woah 500 likes! Thanks!

[@lukesavage2757]

One reason is that they try and use most items in the pack so that might contribute but I agree that they are getting progressively worse.

[@piffba]

Glymm3r P Yeah like the shops in the Get to work? Nice, cute! Get together? Nice style! Cats and dogs? Nice, but sometimes... what is with t h e r o o f i n g. Get famous? *w a t i s t h i s* the museum? Wack. Judith’s house? Wack. The Bailey-Moon house? Wack (where are the toilets?). The gym? Okay I guess

[@onlyaboy3606]

Glymm3r P definitely

[@princesse0920]

Luke Savage people have made decent looking base game houses and that aren't cluttered! I feel like the builders on the sims team just make a square,add random furniture, slap a roof on the top of the house, and add a random side 😂 (sorry if I sounded harsh I'll admit I sound a bit harsh)

[@eliontheinternet3298]

Luke Savage I feel like there’s a different vibe in these houses. Like, using all the items in the pack is one thing- if it felt cluttered, empty, or forced, I could understand that. But it’s like they don’t try. Weird floor plans, weird ceilings, missing toilets, it all makes it feel like they’re just not trying. And I’m not trying to be mean, it genuinely feels that way to me.

[@jammedgaminghq6048]

My theory about Judith(it has one of MY sims related to it): the other side of the house is for her sister(my own sim) who left for some time cuz Judith when she belittled her for not being famous. But later she came back and they became friends again

[@lucyseaberg4902]

simsie really just built a blue suburban mansion

[@Priscapup]

So here’s a thought, probably a terrible, shameful one. Could Nancy and Judith be related? Sisters?

[@willowdove6703]

Cathryn Ashmore well they don’t share a last name, so either half-sisters by their mother or probably cousins?

[@Quentin100909]

@@Quentin100909 Nancy's maiden name is Landgraab. In Sims 3 her dead parents are Chester and Queenie Landgraab and Geoffrey took her last name. Maybe she is Geoffrey's sister??
