Weekend Discussion - December 1, 2024

Hey Shacknews, it's time for Weekend Discussion. Let's officially close out our weekend! Please take a look.

Your daily dose of sudoku

The perfect sudoku?

More Sims spinoff weirdness

Remember when EA would do something with the Sims franchise?

Cults are so fascinating

I wonder how susceptible each individual is to a cult?

And now... Other Stuff From The Internet!

Do not believe the sun

Especially in Australia.

Look at this awesome mod

I think I'm going to install this when I get back to my playthrough.

That's a cozy cat

Indoor only, please. Don't let your cat outside.

I need this show

Apparently it's called Common Side Effects and it's out in 2025.
