“Mom, I had no idea you and Kaylynn would be here so early. Don’t you have to set up the apartment?”
“Ah-ha-ha! I knew you’d ask that! We actually moved in just before we had the most wonderful vacation in Twikki Island! Your father was never interested in truly enjoying our vacations. Even on our honeymoon, he’d wander off to wherever whenever and I’d have to wait for him!”
“San Myshuno is so nice, from what I’ve seen so far! There’s even an LGBT seniors club at the community center. Pleasantview was never so friendly, but I guess I have some of the blame for that, huh?”
“Why, just the other day, I saw one of those transvestite people! You know, the ones who get that surgery?”
“Mom, they’re transgender, not transvestites.”
“And how would you know?”
“One of the parents at Caitlin’s preschool is transgender. His name is Sam Thomas, if you’ve met him.”
“Now look who’s being politically incorrect! I would at least respect her wishes to be a woman!”
“Mom, no. He transitioned to a man, not to a woman.”
“Now why would anyone want to do that? Men are smelly and messy! They never know what you want in bed! You know, for a romance sim, your father was terrible at Woohoo!”
“Mom, I don’t think that’s how-”
“I’m just glad we don’t have any of that going on in our family! Imagine what grandma and grandpa Oldie would say if they were alive! Why, they’re probably rolling in their grave just from me and Kaylynn alone!”
“Mom, can we not-?”
“Now, let me tell you about how I found out your cousin’s husband gave birth to one of those green people!”
“Lovely to meet you, Mrs. Broke. Glad you came just in time before the sunset. Our butler has a bit of an issue with visitors after dark. Now, come in. Have some tea.”
“I was curious about my daughter’s audition. Lately she’s been having a lot of self-esteem issues; saying she’s ugly and no one likes her. You’ve got to have some kind of program to give her a boost, right?”
“Mrs. Broke, it’s perfectly natural to be concerned about your daughter’s self-esteem, but our casting methods rely purely on talent, not on who needs the boost most. Besides, it’s just a commercial for non-toxic glitter nail polish, not a blockbuster film.”
“But you have to at least have some idea whether or not Renee got the spot, right?”
“Mrs. Broke, we are still in the very early casting process. I can’t say anything yet.”
“Hey kiddo!” Dustin was quick to greet his wife and daughter at the door. “How’d the audition go?”
“It was kinda boring, but the director was nice! He let me play Voidcritters while the other kids were reading the scripts, even though mom said he wouldn’t!” Renee was more excited about playing Voidcritters than the audition itself, but as long as she was content, her parents didn’t mind.
“Well, I am so proud of you! And you didn’t even get your dress dirty!”
“Yeah! ‘Cause mom said if I didn’t get my dress dirty at the audition, we can go to Sim Burger when we find out the results, whether I got the part or not!”
“I see…”
Dustin pulled Angela into a hug, so proud of their little girl.
“She was very well behaved.” Angela commented. “Kaylynn also set her up for a modelling photoshoot this Sunday.”
“That’s great!”
“Uh, mom? Can I get out of this dress? It’s itchy and I’m all sweaty!”
me: maybe i should delete these pieces of cc that i dont really need to free up some space and speed up my loading times
inner me: ok but what if you need to actually use that cc sometime
Also applies to Sims in the library and save files 😭😭😭
Me with all the Steampunk/Historical clothes I’ve dl’d. I used to have a hood specifically for those but then a 1-in-a-million power surge happened and fried my SSD. I have very bad luck ^^;
So as a sort of 300 followers gift, I created a new database here on Tumblr to cover the past year-and-a-half and future of 3t2 conversions (of Sims 3 Store items and objects from EPs and SPs anyway). It is still very much a work-in-progress (I have not gotten very far past the outstanding and prolific work of deedee-sims and rented-space) but it is now open for your browsing pleasure:
