In-world it is represented by one of those map pointy symbol thingies that are often used by real world navigation tools to indicate were... Continue Reading →
Virtual Beach Therapy – Episode 12
For this episode of Virtual Beach Therapy I went in search of something a bit more rugged rather than tropical and thus I stumbled across Soul2Soul Highlands in the destination guide. The creator of this enchanting Scottish Isle was inspired by the landscape of the Inner Hebrides islands off the Western coast of Scotland and... Continue Reading →
This is not the end
As the LGBTQ+ pride month is now behind us and our corporate "allies" are rapidly pulling that rainbow filter from their logos and Facebook pages, let us remind ourselves that the fight isn't over yet.

So only a few days ago, or was it a week already, because *exclamative* time is so *exclamative* illusive... Anyhoo, I did a little post on the evolution of items... Continue Reading →
