Played for a little bit just now but you can’t tell me that the main screen “Hello player name” section that always changes WASN’T a coincidence tonight
I refuse to let anyone tell me otherwise 😂

I know I haven’t been active on here for a while, but I’ve been around (chronic illnesses been doing their thing and kicking my butt)
This recent EA sale news though… not sure what to make of it. It makes me uncomfortable, if I could sum it up in one word.

I said on one of my social media bios (Discord maybe?) that I skipped playing Sims 2 somehow…
Guess who just proved herself a liar and is now questioning her ability to recall memories as a child/teen

I wanted to burst out laughing when I spotted this on the mannequin in the shop window, yet at the same time I also intensely wanted to buy it because my love for Charlie Swan runs deep 😂

So what if I’ve been absent from social media & haven’t played Sims in months, Steam has their summer sale on so I just spent $75AUD on four new games & was able to get two more for free.
When will I play them? Who the heck knows? But now I own more games off my wish list so 🤷♀️

![A screenshot of an iPhone open to the lock screen with a notification on it from The Sims Mobile game. The screen shows the date, Sunday 16 March, and the time 11:17 [PM, not actually shown but for context]
The lock screen photo in the background is of a Smile Tile that reads
ARE THINGS THAT BAD OR DO YOU JUST NEED SOME SALT
(OCEAN, TEARS,

The notification itself reads:

I’m just a tiny bit sad that I don’t get birthday balloons over here at Bluesky haha 😜
Anyway, I had a nice day - got to see my baby niece and have a cuddle (oh I saw my brother and sister-in-law too I guess 😂) and have lunch out with them and my parents
Pretty chilled day but it was nice 🥰

My new fave genre of YT reactor is the (usually male) Kanye fan listening to Taylor Swift for the first time & they choose Reputation to do it with. Seeing their eyes widen as they hear her tear into someone lyrically & the delicious irony when they have no idea it’s probably Kanye himself is golden
a woman playing a guitar and two women singing on a stage with the words i 'm gonna edit this later
Alt: A gif from the video clip Look What You Made Me Do by Taylor Swift. It shows a crying Taylor Swift with curly hair playing a guitar (a Teardrops on My Guitar reference), a Taylor Swift with a high ponytail and sunglasses in a leopard print coat taking videos of the other Taylors and saying “I’m gonna edit this later” (likely referring to Kim Kardashian and Kanye West editing the recording of the phone call to Taylor about Kanye’s song Famous) and a Taylor Swift in a floor length silver sparkly one shoulder dress and a curly haired updo holding a MTV VMA award and a microphone (referring to the 2009 VMA incident where Kanye West stormed the stage).
In the background is a black jet (only the engine can be seen) and across the bottom of the gif the words “I’m gonna edit this later” are written.

That moment when you learn a new word from the most unexpected of places: the ‘Too Hot To Handle 3’ Netflix mobile game 😂
(The word in question was susurrate, which apparently means to make a soft rustling sound, a whisper or murmur)

So, Trump got Twitter, Facebook/Instagram and now also TikTok sucking up to him - this is deeply concerning. Traditional media is on the decline and most people (particularly young people) nowadays get their news/info from these sites, which are now dancing to Trumps’ tune. Be careful out there.

You know you’re a Simmer when your physiotherapist stops her husband from throwing away his copy of Sim City and Sim City 4 because she thinks you might like to have them 😂

Today in the ‘Random song in Kirsten’s head’ chronicles we have a song prompted by the fact I created a character in a mobile game with red curly hair
“You sit in class next to a red-head named Abigail
And soon enough you're best friends”
Oh hiiiii Fifteen (Taylor’s Version, of course!)

Look, your heart rate spiked to 127bpm!
My heart rate monitoring app when I actually open the app and check my peak heart rate:
Check it out, you hit 160bpm in the shower!
Babe, I think you’re worried about the wrong number there 😂 #POTS

I forgot how much I loved that song, but also how much of an earworm it was for me 😂

This popped up today & I don’t know if it is available worldwide on Netflix but I really hope it is because it is one of my favourite ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) shows
So raw & personal, just so SO worth watching
I hope they eventually put up all 7 seasons (there’s only two so far)
