Hmmm No, thanks

If doctors are consulted by journalists for a piece on a rare type of cancer, language experts should be when it's a piece on... language. But that's not what happens, is it? 😭

We have a new member in the house! Natália is Lilian's new sister! They've just adopted her. She's a kid, just like Lilian. As with Lilian, I gave her an "extreme" makeover on CAS. I'll post pictures of the two sis together later on. Here's Lilian's macabre bedroom and her pets.

No cheating post the latest photo of your pet

There's a new family member: Lilian! She's a social butterfly and hasn't got along too well yet with her older sister, Elisa, who's now a teen.

The pet members of the family are finally playing together! Before they seemed to hate each other. They've come a long way in their relationship

I bought the Life & Death EP, and this is where my Sim family lives now! In sacred territory, so they're always scared out of their minds. Pamela had started her blogging career, but now she's working her away up the Grim ladder. Bianca's picked up on tarot reading. & there's a surprise!

Elisa's going through a phase. "Yes, moms, I refuse to go to sleep! I'd rather just do nothing and stay up until it's time to go to school. It's my decision and you can't make me go to bed!"

And they already had a (talkative) cat, Minnie. I wish Minnie and Rajá interacted more. I feel like they don't like each other, but I'm probably just imagining it. They rarely make eye contact. Oh, and Bianca's #neurodivergent and got dyspraxia. Pamela's neurotypical.

Bianca chose the business career. She's a regional manager now. She loves cooking. Pamela only enjoys being around other people when they're paying her! She's a mentoring gardener. And they fostered a dog called Rajá. He was so cute they couldn't resist adopting him! + #sims4

Here are my Sims! Pamela on the left. The other's Bianca. They're a couple living in Oasis Springs. I found both Sims in the gallery. They adopted a daughter, whose name I don't remember🤭. She was in a phase this week: Wanted to be a bear (???). Pamela's a gardener. + #sims4

As a translator, what I mostly think about is failure. I have paralysing fear of being perceived as flawed. Maybe it comes from always having felt less than and different (I'm #ActuallyAutistic).

I can’t say I have a well-thought-out idea of achieving a work-life balance. I’ve only just found out I’m autistic, so I’m probably light years from that. There are tons of online articles on the subject (...)
