Saint Zita of Lucca
c.1212-1272                 
Feast day: April 27
Patronage: Domestic workers, homemakers, lost keys, people ridiculed for their piety, rape victims, single laywomen, waitresses, Italian City of Lucca
Saint Zita of Lucca was born in Italy to a poor family. She grew up as an obedient child doing God’s will. At age 12, she became a housekeeper to a wealthy family in Lucca and ended up staying for 48 years. Daily Mass and prayers, along with her duties as a housekeeper, were part of her routine. She did these so perfectly that the other servants were jealous, but she won them over with her generous spirit. Initially, her employers were concerned with her gifts to the poor but accepted her acts of charity and “ trusted her with the keys” of freedom of the household to care for the poor, sick, and the prisoners. Her body is incorrupt to this day. On April 27th the people of Lucca bake bread and bring flowers to the church of San Frediano.

A promotional photograph from RCA Victor, c. 1950
From Wikipedia: "The 7-inch 45 rpm record was released 31 March 1949 by RCA Victor as a smaller, more durable and higher-fidelity replacement for the 78 rpm shellac discs. The first 45 rpm records were monaural, with recordings on both sides of the disc."
"As stereo recordings became popular in the 1960s, almost all 45 rpm records were produced in stereo by the early 1970s. Columbia Records, which had released the ​33 1⁄3 rpm 12-inch vinyl LP in June 1948, also released ​33 1⁄3 rpm 7-inch vinyl singles in March 1949, but they were soon eclipsed by the RCA Victor 45."

"Men are getting frustrated, because we see videos of pretty tradwives, and that actually doesn't exist. All women always put their careers first and only want your credit card to order door dash."
My brother in Christ (presumably), I could name twenty women off the top of my head who would drop their careers in a moment for the opportunity to be a housewife. And most, if not all, of them enjoy cooking.

Here's a quick list of games that were listed in a magazine as being 'inspired' by The Sims. I know most of these but that last one on page two is new to me.
Funny how most of these are specifically focused on sexual aspects. It was the 2000s, after all, a notoriously horny time. Also, Ghost Master is HARDLY 'sims inspired' a fun game but not like The Sims at all.
