@valerie_galery yeah the sims don't care about black people the only reason why they attempt to fix the skin tones was because a black man was shot by the police and the blm movement

@Sims_2_Serious @donwinslow I think he’s making people aware of what’s circulating out there. On my Facebook are people I know declaring to burn our Capital down! Yes, their names are reported to the FBI. They aren’t just words, they are part of a group that wants to do it. This is all real.

@_AsherInTheRei_ @TheSims They have said they are looking into it. There are different teams for different parts of the game. It takes time to fix things and a team was already working on this pack, hence why it’s coming out before the console fix.

@sakumaisland @nandoandstitch I understand this however something that has been an issue since the sims 1 was JUST fixed... in 2020/21. Later demands will take time, not saying one is more important than the other just saying that we can’t expect EA to fix everything at once when we can barely get the basics.

Hey everyone! The internet has been down in my area for 2 hours now and @Optus lists the fault as “under investigation”. Which means it’s gonna be a while. I need to cancel this morning’s darkest timeline DAO stream but will hopefully be up and running with The Sims 4 at 7pm AEDT

@Wait_who_again @Alex_ONeill6 @pickasidex2 @Sims_2_Serious @donwinslow 7% of them and ties to proud boys and other right extremist groups have been found as bad actors for the cause. The issue is real and got buried by a few store’s bad tale that also happened during all other historic times where people protest

@nandoandstitch It doesn't solve your issue of having to pick between male and female, but there is a mod called 'Refer' (I think by neon ocean? It's on mod the sims) and it allows you to choose what pronouns you go by (and if I'm correct, it includes any pronouns you personally go by) 🤷♀️

the game refers to the ***, genitalia of the sims. that's what the "male/female" refers to.
now, the pronouns should be integrated in the part where you can choose the sim's GENDER PREFERENCES, where the "sits on toilet" option is :)

for anyone that’s just starting up on #TheSims4 on pc here’s some tips for build mode:
-press ctrl + shift + c to show the cheats bar and type in bb.moveobjects on before using these!!!
-use 9 to move an object up and 0 to move an object down
