lets freaking play paralives

lets play some paralives !!! yipeeeee i speed ran recording, editing, and uploading this all in the span of like 12 hours so if the editing is messy i am sorry! vid with a similar vibe to this one:    • idk why i even wasted $44 on the sims 2   uploaded to my second channel too, if you care about books: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ more of a personal message below!! be warned a lot has changed in my life since i last uploaded. i moved in with my long distance boyfriend, i started testosterone, and i honestly have felt very conflicted about making sims content/content in general. i have on several occasions just wanted to make a video and upload it but have felt like i couldn't for so many reasons. i think i have put a lot of expectations on what this channel is or the quality of the content that has made it really hard to keep up with for myself, balancing a job and a life. i think with each failed attempt to return to this channel i felt more pressure, i have soooo many videos that are recorded, half edited, scraped. and even more ideas that i barely started and never got around to. a LOT of plans. I have also felt external and internal pressure about using this channel in a productive way and have been feeling the hurt of the buyout. when i tried to be a critical voice against the buyout and put it through a leftist lens (as i try and do with any of my commentary), i received a lot of backlash about that from some of you familiar with my channel and many from outside sources. its been a fairly divisive thing, to play sims or to not play sims. it is not that that is the sole reason i went absent but it sure made me hesitant to share opinions or post sims content (regardless of the way i acquired said content, if you get me, or how critical i was.) this sounds fairly dramatic but it has been more of a background thing in my thoughts than like an ongoing crisis. there have been much bigger fish to fry if you just look at the state of the US or worse try and live it rn. anyways all that to say i miss when this channel was fun and im hopeful this new release will allow me to just have a fun escape again, im treating it like a clean slate. i dont know what im uploading next or when, if it will be sims again or not, etc. grateful to all of you here, watching and reading. everybody putting up with me being such a flake. appreciate y'all.
