Movie Review: The Dark and the Wicked (2020)

Disability mods for the Sims

I use the Sims 4 as a creativity tool (I write in my head while I play) and a stress-reliever on bad flare-up and high pain days. Inspired by the chronically ill trait mod I found, I queried on Reddit about disability additions, and wished for the ability to create

Link to Letterboxd review, which is fully quoted below. 5 stars Mild spoilers. “The sound of their hate is another kind of fire moving through the bones of our house.” Shirley Jackson was a genius.
