Its been a minute since I played my life sims and I got the itch to go back to San Myshuno. Gavin FINALLY rolled the want to get engaged to Duke and of course he didn't wait for "a moment" - in the living room after breakfast it is ๐

I had another story published ๐คฉ This publication charges $3 for a copy ๐. I don't expect you to spend money unless you want to; but I wanted to share. This one channels the "dude bros" my boys love to watch ๐ 'Man Down' by Jack Dream; starts on page 96 thehemlockjournal.com/2026/09/12/t...

Welp this is new - if we needed anymore proof that people don't like the Moola/Marketplace concept ๐คญ
I had another short story chosen for publication - just sharing in case anyone who enjoyed my writing style is interested in reading it. www.discretionarylove.com/floored/

His back was cold, that was the first thing Warren noticed. As his foggy brain started to piece his morning together, fragments resurfaced slowly

our latest patch is out with more bug fixes and improvements, update your game now ๐ซต
I think every parent has experienced this - watching his daddies sleep โบ๏ธ!
I just realized that even if an object swatch in Paralives doesn't offer "patterns" you can still get some interesting, unique, looks for things. See this masonry texture I used on their bedsheets - I think it looks like a fun textured comforter ๐
A relaxing (but productive!) day in town. Landon was literally angry about eating and going potty at home so I figured he needed a change of scenery ๐...
๐ itโs finally warm out and our favourite summertime activity isโฆ playing Paralives! get Paralives at a 20% discount now through July 9th during the Steam Summer Sale! ๐ด
Look what I just got for the bedroom at my base in Fallout 76 today ๐!
Landon aged up to a toddler ๐ซถ! He's aborbs but... where did that hair come from!? I struggle to see the boys being the "dye their babies hair" type so I'm gonna go with freak natural occurrence ๐
This man... A Lvl 29 manager in the music industry, perfectly skilled for his current role, no strikes on his record, and yet he's crying in the shower because he didn't get an upgrade point at work today ๐คช
He might be a bit buggy but he's adorable ๐ซถ Also god I love edit character mode in this game. Annoying you have to use a cheat to change a babies outfits but the ability to make what looks like a custom onesie from inside the game interface - AMAZING ๐คฉ
Guys, are infants in Paralives known to be a little buggy? Because I can't even ๐ซฃ๐คญ
We did a thing... Meet Landon ๐!
As you may have guessed from my earlier posts, Duke and Gavin are now home owners ๐ซถ๐! Working on updating their interior and I'm really happy with how this little dining room "china cabinet" turned out. This game as so much nice clutter already!
I do believe this is a dog door ๐๐ถ... I know pets are planned for future updates but its nice to see these little touches already built in that foreshadow those plans.
An example of the basegame build mistakes all the build content creators will be wincing at one day (if not already) ๐คญ (In case you can't tell, the window on the left is actually 2 windows on top of each other in different styles)
Has anyone else been getting inactive/wrong age skill leveling as want options? This is the third time for Duke. First it was fishing, then language, now outdoorsiness ๐คช
This makes my heart happy ๐
Poor Gav ๐ฅบ - he got sick at work and missed dinner with Duke. He got treatment before he came home so he feels fine but he doesn't FEEL fine... I find it interesting that Paras hold onto their stress from getting sick after they are cured - it tracks - and this animation is sad but lovely ๐ฅน
Wow Duke must have a really loud voice and a very quick mind - he's having conversation a with all four of these people at once while repairing a vending machine! Love that Paras can do this but the team needs to work on pathing and proper speaking distance ๐คญ
I have to say - even with no animation for it I appreciate that they boys can talk to each other while one of them is playing an instrument ๐ซถ
Another Paralives Photo Trick! I've found that any item a para is holding will disappear in photomode (so I couldn't get Gav playing guitar for example) If you press Ctrl+H you can hide the user interface so you can screenshot with whatever native computer took you like!
This NPC helped me understand my pre baby body better ๐ Does she look pregnant? Little bit Is she pregnant? Nope (according to the search I did) Her body shape is very similar to what mine was starting around high school... and yes I got the "expecting" question more than once๐คฆโโ๏ธ๐คช...
Thank you @paralives.com! The boys last rent bill was $1600 dollars because of a $1200 water bill ๐ฎ๐ฌ... this looks much better (it was a fix in the recent patch, patch notes linked in my thread)!
I honestly think this is the first time I've seen Gavin smile ๐ฅน! In other news, I'm sad to say that judging by the way he's eating Duke apparently has an undiagnosed broken wrist... ๐ซฃ๐คช๐
I was reading this post like it was a sims laundry list and thinking ugh cant wait for these fixes (particularly the group meals one) and then realized I donโt have to wait lol very excited to try this out
a new patch has been released! update your game now to get the latest version with these fixes ๐
So I think this tells us that the constantly broken items around town are at least in part a feature, not a bug. Duke has been repairing a lot to raise repair lately and this appeared in the paper today:
