On one hand, Andy celebrates the wedding of the girl who made sure he wouldn't ever see his three girls get to this day. On the other hand he's tying her to a manchild who literally joined an incel terror group and their wedding isn't even recognised in Louisiana...

Bill Compton really said "I can't give you kids so I must die Sookie" and then "Will you plan my vampire progeny slash daughter stand-in's wedding for me Sookie" in the same breath. Mind you, they are actually in a time where Sookie could get a sperm donor or, you know, adopt. This man is exhausting.

They really had Bill ask a favor of a man whose THREE children died because of his plans, to benefit the vampire that killed them, huh. That is incredibly true to character for Bill but damn, in Andy's place I would raze this mansion to the ground and ban Jessica from Bon Temps

My thoughts on the relationship between Bill and Lorena in True Blood.
It it my opinion that Bill’s abusive and sexually sadistic behaviour is not all Lorena’s fault. Yes she turned him which gave him more power that he already had and put him the position to do what he did but I think that’s where it ends.
Bill fought for the confederacy, this make him at least a little racist since there are plenty on instances where people fled the south the fight for the Union. His father kept slaves and Bill didn’t take the time to know anything about them. BIll never apologize for joining a cause that sort to keep people enslaved nor did him seem to concerned that he partook in slavery. All of this was before he met Lorena.
There’s the excuse that Lorena was BIll’s maker so Bill couldn’t go against her  but Godric killed his abusive maker. Even though the abuse wasn’t happening to Bill it doesn’t mean that the shoe doesn’t fit, anyone with a shred of empathy would have done the right thing and given Lorena the true death.
 A woman online collated the 16 rules of misogyny, rule 1 is that women are responsible for everything men do, rule 8 says that men know the real reason behind everything, rule 10 states that the worst thing about male violence is that it makes men look bad and rule 13 is that angry women are crazy. Angry men have trouble expressing themselves. That sounds a lot like Bill.
Lorena told Bill not to go back to his home, and yet he did. The result is what Lorena warned him about, more pain. Lorena is the only reason Bill didn’t kill his wife. 
Lorena never had to force Bill to do anything, he did it willingly and enjoyed it. Denying that Bill didn’t have the right to choose is misogynistic so is blaming Lorena for everything.

What are some ways to start sentences for variation?
Hey thanks for the ask :)
In English, the natural sentence structure is to start with the subject:
John.../It.../They.../Clouds...
While this is certainly a good way to write, a paragraph where every sentences starts with the subject will tend to be monotonous.
Here are some other ways to start your sentences:
Time:
At once...
At dusk...
In the evening...
After...
At the same time...
When...
On Sunday...
Place:
Here..
Under the apple tree...
By the river...
At the house...
Next to...
Close to the road...
In her suitcase...
On the other side...
All across the nation...
In the corner...
Near the bottom of the page...
At the airport...
Present Participle:
Dodging the bullet, he...
Gasping for breath, she...
Humoring him, they...
Others:
Although...
Despite...
Against...
Luckily...
With...
If...
Nevertheless...
etc.

I have already converted these Wine Bottles and Glasses from Somik&Severinka sometime ago as functional drinks that can be taken from the fridge.
Now the serving tray can be buyed from the catalog in the Party Section and wine (both red and with) can be served and drinked similar to my Cocktail Board Drinks. It will increase fun and comfort and decrease bladder.

true blood s7 does not make a compelling case as to why tara's storyline needed her to be dead... yeah it's nice that we got a storyline about her family but it was shallow and did not soften the blow of losing her as an actual character at all

No but they could TOTALLY rewrite Eloise's story to make it queer. Like the entire premise of her romance is that she starts writing letters to a family friend whose wife just died and then he invites her to his house so they can court. And well. We know that Cressida's parents are hell bent on her getting married so there's a good chance she marries Debling this season. And he's going off on the whole northwest passage expedition thing which is apparently really fucking dangerous (the first time somebody did it successfully was sometime in the early 1900s). So there's a very high chance she ends up a widow. And Eloise hears about it. And decides to write to her old friend to comfort her. (So much more plausible than her writing to some random-ass stranger who she didn't know from Adam). Of course Cressida invites her to visit because it's a big fucking house and she's lonely. So then Eloise goes and they fall in love and everybody lives happily ever after!

Shit to edit OUT of the Novel
When editing a novel, it's essential to be ruthless in cutting out anything that doesn't serve the story or enhance the reader's experience.
Excessive Exposition: Cut lengthy explanations or info dumps that slow down the pacing or feel unnatural in the narrative flow. Show, don't tell whenever possible.
Redundant Scenes: Remove scenes that repeat information or don't advance the plot, characters, or themes in a meaningful way.
Unnecessary Characters: Streamline your cast by removing minor characters who don't contribute significantly to the story's development or conflict resolution.
Overused Clichés: Eliminate clichéd phrases, descriptions, or plot devices that feel tired or predictable. Aim for fresh and original storytelling.
Weak Dialogue: Trim dialogue that doesn't reveal character insights, move the plot forward, or contribute to the story's atmosphere or tension.
Verbose Descriptions: Pare down lengthy descriptions of settings, characters, or actions that don't add depth or relevance to the scene.
Unfocused Subplots: Cut subplots that distract from the main storyline or fail to connect thematically or emotionally with the central narrative.
Unresolved Threads: Tie up loose ends and resolve unanswered questions to provide a satisfying conclusion for readers.
Telling Instead of Showing: Replace telling passages with scenes that allow readers to experience the story through action, dialogue, and sensory details.
Inconsistent Tone or Voice: Ensure consistency in the narrative voice and tone throughout the novel, removing any passages that feel out of place or jarring.
Irrelevant Backstory: Limit backstory to what's essential for understanding character motivations or plot developments, cutting unnecessary details or flashbacks.
Extraneous Details: Trim unnecessary details or digressions that don't contribute to the story's emotional resonance or thematic depth.
Unrealistic Dialogue Tags: Replace overly embellished dialogue tags (e.g., "he exclaimed," "she pontificated") with simple, clear attributions (e.g., "he said," "she asked") to maintain clarity and flow.
Overly Padded Scenes: Condense scenes that drag on without adding significant value to the narrative, maintaining a tight focus on key story beats.
Inconsistent Characterization: Ensure characters' actions, dialogue, and motivations remain consistent throughout the novel, removing any instances of behavior that feel out of character or forced.

Y'all
I know I haven't been active on this blog for years now but every time I tried rebuilding my Downloads folder or got the itch to play/create again I would get absolutely PLAGUED by pink flashing, which is something that a couple years ago when I was addicted to TS2 and playing on a lower end computer very, very rarely happened. Like I honestly can only remember it happening to me *once* back then and it's not like I've ever had a tiny Downloads folder or anything, right? But lately it's been awful, just completely awful. Like loading into the game and immediately having my sims T-pose and flash pink awful no matter what I did.
And then I did this...
Tumblr media
Switched from extra large view distance to just large. Not even because of pink flashing, just because I have 29 residential lots and over 40 community lots in one neighborhood, and moving the camera around was getting a tiny bit laggy sometimes... and the stupid fucking pink flashing is gone. Completely gone!!!!!!!!!! I have been playing the same stupid overly crowded neighborhood with 18.8 gigs of custom content for hours and hours on end and visit every stupid community lot I want and have improved lot impostors AND I EVEN WENT TO BED AND LEFT MY GAME RUNNING AND CAME BACK TO IT AND IT WAS FINE, the game was fine, I played for hours again and it was fine!!!!!!!!
NOTHING IS PINK AND NOTHING HURTS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm sorry if this is old news and I'm sure this is one of those things that doesn't even work for everybody and I feel like I probably saw this tip somewhere already and completely forgot about it when I was going crazy with pink soup but I am so fucking happy right now, I love love love hate this game so much 😭😭 and now I can have an absurd amount of CC and an absurd amount of detail and sims and lots, a 5 minute loading time AND no pink soup anywhere in my game, this really is the future, like this IT.
