Chapter One : Brushstrokes Of Life

In the soft glow of the morning light, Damien lay on the couch, cradling the sleeping Jayde in his arms. The weight of impending bills loomed on the coffee table beside him, each envelope marked with alarming red lettering, a stark reminder of the financial storm brewing in his life. The threat of eviction hung in the air, casting shadows over Damien's dreams of artistic success.

His son Jameson had been unwell, a string of missed workdays leaving Damien in a precarious position. With his sister Dallas away on her travels, Damien found himself alone in the delicate balancing act of parenthood and survival. Exhausted, he sought solace in a brief nap, the strains of worry etched on his face.

As the morning unfolded, the children seemed to sense their father's unease, prompting Damien to make a decision. With Jameson on the road to recovery and Jayde somewhat well rested, Damien saw an opportunity to escape the suffocating confines of their home. The park, a haven of open space and possibility, beckoned to him.

Gently placing Jayde in the stroller and holding Jameson's small hand, Damien embarked on a journey to the park. The air was crisp, and a subtle hope danced in the sunlight filtering through the trees. In this moment, the weight of financial burden lifted, if only momentarily, replaced by the simple joy of being outdoors with his children.

I’ve been meaning to take my stuff down I keep forgetting because I don’t use it to begin with

Why is the Sims community boycotting Curseforge?

I've seen a lot of posts going around calling on Simmers to stop using Curseforge, a modding platform that enables creators to monetize their downloads, with plenty of outrage directed toward modders and CC-makers who are still on the platform. But I've also seen a lot of people who are confused about why there are calls for a boycott.

Curseforge is owned by Overwolf, a company that is donating money to the IDF in support of its ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people.

In late October/early November, Overwolf posted a graphic on their social media asking followers to "defend our defenders" by contributing financially to a fundraising drive for the IDF. They were met with backlash and quickly took the graphic down, replacing it with one that used language about raising money for "those effected by the violence in Gaza" (my phrasing may be inexact) but the money is still going to the IDF and not to any agency actually supporting civilians or doing humanitarian work.

You can see the original graphic on this change.org petition, which provides some additional context.

If you are using Curseforge in any way -- by hosting your content there or downloading from it -- you are giving money to a company that is raising funds for an ongoing military campaign against a civilian population.

This is why people are calling for a boycott. If you are a modder or CC maker for the Sims, you should remove all of your content from the website and redirect people to other DL sources. If you are a consumer of mods and CC, you should stop clicking curseforge links and send (polite!) messages to modders and CC makers to urge them to pull their content from the site.
