Thank you - I'll pass that along to her. It took a few months for her to stop "sucking it in" whenever we'd take a picture together, because she's never really gotten comments like that before (we started dating). PB is... different. She's the kind of lady that you'd see constantly eating in every picture, but she was always fairly active due to work and trying to stay fit. (Years ago, when we were just friends, she went on a date that was pretty much just walking around the mall grabbing food. She was really nervous, because she felt massively self-conscious to be out with this tall, blonde, athletic cheerleader type, and PB nearly had a shame meltdown when her date told her that she was in awe of how much PB could eat. She texted me about it after, panicking, because, like, that's something a guy might say, but women should know better, right? I finally got to tell her after we started dating that I was 99.9% sure she's been matching on dating sites with feeders for years.) That said, she has no concept of calories or what's fattening versus what's not. The whole reason why she piled on weight was because she truly didn't consider that doing things like eating a bag of goldfish crackers in a sitting while gaming was going to make a difference. So, it's sometimes complicated - it helps a lot when I'm around to enable her, but when I tell her things like, "If you want to gain weight faster, you've got to consistently eat 3,000+ calories in a day," she'll kind of make a face and go, "Ugh, I just want to get fat - please don't make me do math." But, yeah, I'm going to help her however I can, because she seems thrilled to be gaining. Oh, and here's more pictures from PB - she says thank you to everyone for being interested in her story.

Talked to PB last night, and she asked about how the thread was doing, which, I guess, shouldn't have surprised me as much as it did. She said that it's been a week where she really hasn't been able to gain any weight, and that was really getting to her. I replied that sometimes it's difficult to keep putting on weight consistently and tried to be comforting, but she's really excited to get to 250 and wants to see more progress. (If that wasn't obvious by the fact she's drinking weight gain shakes.) Telling her that this thread was at 800ish views was a fun thing for her and cheered her up some, though. For context: she's a huge nerd and never really thought of herself as attractive. Being a feedee has been a huge confidence boost for her over the last year, and it's the first time where she's felt comfortable showing off her body or "trying to be sexy." At 150, she thought that she was "huge" and that nobody would be interested in her, but at 200, she's thrilled that she gets to enjoy being herself. And she asked me to post a few "before" pictures and one of her trying on a bathing suit back in July, so here they are:

Got a text from her last night (we're apart for the moment, because my job sucks) asking if anyone has commented on this thread, and I explained all of the reactions and post views. Her response was to send me two images to post, along with the news that she thinks she's gone up another cup size and will measure herself this week, as she needs to buy a new bra, again.

I showed her this post, and she insisted I add a photo, because she's smug and wants to be proven right.

About a year ago, I started spending more time with an old friend, because she wanted to get more into gaming. She'd lost her job during the pandemic and thought maybe games could be a good way to have fun and meet new people, as she's been typically kind of a socially awkward stay-at-home person. But like an absolute maniac, she decided to start with single-player roguelike games instead of literally anything else on Steam. Which, I guess had the good outcome of us meeting up in person to talk about Hades, even though I hadn't actually seen her in years. (We'd been texting a lot and she'd occasionally watch me stream things, which seemed normal, given the whole COVID thing.) Obviously, given where I'm posting this, you can guess what happened - I had the awooga cartoon eyes bulging out of my skull and wolf whistle reaction when I saw that my lady friend had gained about 40 pounds, going from about 140 to 180. Which made it super awkward at first, because she was self-conscious about how she looked, and I realized I might have feelings for my friend. But long story short, that day led to a lot more talking and us spending more time together, until we both admitted that we were actually very much into each other. Time skip ahead another few months, and she had gained another 10 pounds, which only made it more difficult to not ask if she'd be into gaining more weight. So, I did. And she said yes, that she loved food, loved our sex life, and that she'd try to get more into it. (Another cartoon heart eyes moment, obviously.) We played around with feedism stuff more and more, seeing what she liked and didn't, though I kind of assumed that, yeah, we say stuff when we're flirting, but this has all been more my thing than her thing. Which is when she asked me if I would get her some meal replacement shakes, like the ones she used to drink in high school. And me being me, I asked if she'd be okay if we got one of the higher calorie options, because... why not, right? That sparked a conversation about what sort of options were available and how much weight she'd like to gain, and she replied that she'd really like to try Boost VHC shakes (520 calories per 8 oz), because "it'd be nice to gain 60 pounds by Christmas." That was the end of June, and she's been drinking at least one shake a day since then, which has caused an interesting side effect - she's gone up 2 cup sizes in 9 pounds. She's convinced that it's something to do with the Boost shakes, and I think maybe it's just kinda because she's always been a bit top heavy. Has anyone else ever had anything similar like that happen to them? (I mean specifically the boob growth spurt thing, not so much the whole story.)

You will have mastered the art of writing for this fetish when you can transform the following into either what precedes an incredibly emotional and intimate scene between two partners, what kicks off a kinky sex scene, or a dumb gag reference to a meme that only seven people will understand:

Took every fan request I've ever gotten and worked them into a single comic, like a bunch of train wrecks all at once. Here's the first four pages:

And that's the Gwen comic, including two pages at the end as requested by readers. PDF download link: https://www.mediafire.com/file/vcvndxhvm8y2cpp/SGYear.pdf/file

Almost done with Gwen. Hopefully everyone is enjoying this weird sidetracking while I sort out technical issues. And since I'll probably do another small comic in between this and the next one, feel free to suggest things.

Back to updating the Spider-Gwen comic...

RAM, you're fine. Storage, it depends. If you're only going to playing The Sims, you'll be good with any stock setup of most gaming laptops, since they seem to be shipping with 500 gig SSDs standard now. The sliders and presets are just packaged Dmaps, so that's maybe a few MBs, but if you want to get a lot of CC, specifically clothing and build buy stuff, you might want up to 5-6 extra gigs of space. My mod folder, which is a mess and way, way beyond what I would recommend, is 13 gigs at the moment, plus 26 gigs for the Sims 4 folder (and I take a lot of screenshots to make the comics, so that's another 2 gigs right there)... All in, my guess is that you'll probably need about 32 gigs of space for The Sims 4, depending on how addicted to CC you get.

Pretty much everything is standard 16GB DDR4 these days, and that's more than enough. I don't even think it's possible to buy something these days that can't comfortably run The Sims 4, because it was meant to run on dual core processors with a GTX 650, so you're beyond good with anything from Alienware (or any other popular gaming laptop manufacturer) these days.

You're welcome! And while I have both and can run my setup of the Sims 4 on either, I prefer to make the comics on my desktop, so I can have one monitor open to Photoshop & the comic template while I'm taking screenshots in Sims 4 with the other.

That's a pretty difficult question to answer, because I use literally gigs of CC/sliders/mods, but, in short: Roburky's Fitness mod and many, many presets & sliders, like SSNL's XL preset and Whibby's PeachyThicc. When I need to have something look a certain way, I'll fire up Blender to modify sliders or presets accordingly. (I would simply share my entire presets/sliders folder, but it's a mess and it's a lot of other modders' work slightly tweaked to look better for the comics.) For getting started, I highly recommend The Sims WG Community - that's where a lot of weight gain/feederism mods, like TSF's gameplay mods, started. (And if anyone needs more help with finding/making CC, it might be easier to message me on Discord or post questions there, because I'm usually active on that server.)

I doubt I'll wrap this up in two pages, but we'll see?
