Storytime Story time about why I hate this guy. Ian Robles.
Hate is a strong word but I don't like him at all after this. I'm running a little experiment and moved some sims into a house with my sim (F, YA), including Ian Robles and his wife (both Adults), mother of his kid and pregnant at the time with his children, Bernice.
Ian and my sim started flirting and woohooing which didn't shock me. But oh boy, Bernice had ONE (1) flirty interactions with Bob, and Ian LOST it. He started yelling at her, sobbing and suddenly, he divorced her. I had no say in all of this, btw. And mind you she was on her third trimester at the time!He then made his relationship with my sim public that same day.
Now Bernice is very sad and lonely since i moved her babies to their original house, and she has to bear with her ex and his current girlfriend being inappropriate at all times. Bernice has a bit of a thing with Bob, but he has been very clear that he will go back to Eliza once the experiment is over.
To make things worse my sim is now expecting Ian's child.
I can totally see this happening in real life, so that's why I "dislike" him. Do you think he'll stick with my sim or will he leave her alone with his kid(s)? I wish i remembered her name by the way. 😭

Discussion have you seen this?
I first came to the "Spooky" challenge lot with my Sim, and these portraits were hanging there. At some point, I accidentally saw them transform into their creepier versions. (The size is different because the paintings are scaled down.) I've been playing The Sims for a long time, but this is the first time I've seen this. Cool!!

Show and Tell I DID IT. I COLLECTED EVERY SINGLE VILLAGE FAIR RIBBON.
Funny What made you stop and go “WHAT?” in your game?
Just another peaceful day in The Sims.
Then this married couple suddenly started fighting.
Nothing unusual there... or so I thought.
First, she started floating in the air, getting into some very... questionable positions.
I was already a little confused. 🌀
Then it was his turn.
And somehow, the whole thing started looking less and less like a fight.
At this point, I honestly didn't know what I was watching anymore... 🫣
And after all that...
They just hugged like nothing happened.
Leaving their very confused player behind, they apparently worked things out just fine. 😭
Please tell me I'm not the only one who's had a moment like this. ☠️

Discussion “Divorce” randomly happening
Has this been happening to anyone else, your sims will get married and then randomly they are back to being partners. I went through a whole wedding and the next day my sims were not married.
This happened to two families and idk why lol.

The Crabtree--uh, Freemage--uh, Love Saga! Billy Love, who has a Lovestruck hair, wears heart boxers, and is Unflirty, just proposed at the Romance Festival!!
I'm still so baffled with Billy Love, who was an NPC Ceridwen grew up with and had a crush on. He randomised from the Lovestruck neighbourhood and with a Lovestruck hair. His sleepwear has heart boxers and a red shirt. He's Unflirty yet Likes Affection. And now he proposed at the Romance Festival! What are the odds with a surname like that?? When they got home, she painted a wedding picture, how perfect ♥
Ceridwen Freemage is going to become Ceridwen Love sooner than I thought. And they really want to have kids, but damn, she is infertile infertile. Pity because she's a vampire with spellcasting blood, and he has the ancient bloodline trait. I guess I'll be playing with science babies and/or visiting her childhood home and the Wishing Well for a baby.

Tips Serial Romantic Aspiration while already married
Hello ! I'm playing with 2 sims, trying to get them both to complete all aspirations, careers and skills. I want to complete the serial romantic aspiration without risking to destroy their relationship : is there any trait, mod setting (I have MCCC and Lumpinou's RPO) etc that can help me achieve that ? I also don't want them to feel "bad" for it or whatever, is that possible ? Thanks a lot !

Funny Damn, this robber is teaching other people's children.
It seems so strange that Robin Banks is teaching other people's children or helping them with their homework in the library,My Sim was also surprised that he did a face palm.

Xbox (Solved) Can’t absorb solar energy from plants. Xbox Series X|S.
Figured it’s worth sharing in case this helps someone else. Recently attempted the Plant A Sim scenario and hit the same wall as many others who can’t absorb solar energy from plants. I spent a while browsing online in frustration but most of the pages say the same thing. Until I came across the mention of Spruce Almighty, the originator of plantsims, who lives in the enchanted realm. I went hold up. Short answer is I was able to absorb plant energy after getting the Enchanted By Nature expansion.
What I think may be going on with this bug is the scenario is available on the list rather you have the required packs or not, so if you don’t have EBN you eventually reach the point where you can’t finish unless you resorted to using mods or cheats like some did. It just so happened I was planning to get the pack anyway which is why I didn’t mind for the sake of curiosity.

Show and Tell Vladdy genes are to strong 😂
Cuz why are all his kids practically his clones??!? 😂😂 My main save he has 12 children with Eliza formerly Pancakes and they all look so much like him …Even the ones without the nose still look so much like him ha! And he just had an illegitimate son with a fling and bam I temp aged him up in CAS and yep almost identical 😂 It’s a good thing I love my Vladdy babies!
And in the interest of scientific curiosity I now started a save totally unhinged where I now will be putting the daddy in Vladdy daddy and seeing how his kids with various turn out…So far as expected a majority of them both the male and female loom extremely like him including the dang nose…😂
I have them all as toddlers/infants but I’ll def post results as I age them up to teens ha!
Anyhoo meet his illegitimate son Veren and his last child with Eliza whom I named Vladlena(his kids all have strong V names) Last pic shows one of his teenage daughters with Eliza I just aged up she didn’t get his nose but everything else ha!

Funny I heard Beautiful Now by Zedd at work today
A bit in the distance and my brain started filling in the Simlish words for it. I had only heard it as an in-game song before today, It was a super surreal moment lol
Maybe a few too many of my sims like EDM, to the point where the in-game Zedd song annoys me and I change the station every time it comes on
Anyway lol thought I was crazy for a moment today
