Down with the monarchy! Unless it's me, because I'm a brilliant, totally not corrupt ruler in The Sims 4's surprisingly entertaining Royalty & Legacy expansion

As that cartoon lion once famously sang before killing his uncle and shagging his cousin, I just can't wait to be king! It's not a sentiment I was expecting to be writing when I first fired up The Sims 4's latest major expansion, Royalty & Legacy - I'm hardly what you'd call an enthusiastic monarchist - but here I now am, several hours in; scheming and extorting my way to the top, drunk on unearned power.

I’m 37 and I’ve spent my entire adult life being told I’m ā€˜too sensitive’ or ā€˜reading into things’ — but the truth is I notice when people’s tone shifts, when they avoid eye contact, when their kindness feels performative, and I’m exhausted from pretending I don’t see what I see

The first time someone told me I was ā€œtoo sensitive,ā€ I was maybe twelve. I’d pointed out that a family friend seemed upset at dinner even though she was smiling. My mum told me I was reading into things. The family friend called two weeks later to say she’d been going through a divorce. That ... Read more Read more ›

Quote by Robin Williams: ā€œI used to think that the worst thing in life was to end up alone. It’s not. The worst thing in life is to end up with people who make you feel aloneā€

There was a stretch in my life where I’d come home every evening, sit across from someone I was supposed to be closest to, and feel completely invisible. We’d talk. We’d eat dinner together. We’d go through the motions of a shared life. But something fundamental was missing. And the strangest part? I couldn’t even ... Read more Read more ›

There’s a specific kind of person who cleans the entire house before they allow themselves to rest, and they’re not neat. They grew up in a home where relaxation was only permitted after visible proof of productivity, and their nervous system still requires an entrance fee for stillness.

Psychology explains people who grew up in the 1960s aren’t just tougher — they developed a specific kind of resilience that comes from being raised in an era when emotional comfort wasn’t considered a basic right

In 1966, a developmental psychologist named Diana Baumrind published a study that would change how we think about parenting. Working out of the University of California, Berkeley, she identified three distinct styles: authoritarian, authoritative, and permissive. Her research was groundbreaking. But here’s the thing that always strikes me about that timing. The generation being raised ... Read more Read more ›

Let's be honest, no-one is going into a shop and picking up a Switch 2 because of Drag x Drive, are they? Nor are they seeking out the new(ish) console for a mouse-controlled version of Metroid Prime 4 (even if it is sort-of good).
