Discovery Quests won't go away

This just started happening for me today and the game is unplayable. Whether the discovery quests are on or off, every time you try to delete them they come back full force. 
It also cycles through ALL of the discovery quests every time. I just moved my sims from their home area to another map and am just seeing these for the first time. 

I tried turning off ALL tutorial/tip settings and it changed nothing. This kept happening with the Reaper Rewards too. I just want to play the game in peace! 

Same thing for me! Makes the game impossible to play. Everything disabled on options but still no luck at all 😭

I have the same problem

Same issue. My game has become unplayable.

Same here. And I was under the impression that Reaper Rewards ends today, which I had just one more thing to finish and couldn't because of this. It does still show the little Reaper to the right of the quests though and all the rewards when you click on it. 

I have this same issue, it's so annoying.

Okay update to this - yesterday I could NOT for the life of me get these to go away, today I started a new save (without changing or touching any settings) and the Discovery Quests are gone. 
The Reaper Rewards icon is still there for some reason, but the quests no longer pop up!

It's still an issue because I did literally nothing. I wish there was a way to opt-out of future events because I feel like Reaper Rewards broke my save....
