What's this? What's happening? What's going on?
So here we are again, at that magical time of the year when corporation bravely show their support for the LGBTQ+ community by popping a rainbow on their social media accounts and possibly zhuzh up the company logo to show us just how woke they are. Wait, what's that? They're not really doing that anymore... Continue Reading →
In real life I have a bit of a socks thing. I'm not talking about a kink, though there would be nothing wrong with it if I did. It's far from an addiction or a wild collection, but I do like a colourful pair of socks and the nice thing is that it's never hard... Continue Reading →
The phrase "better angels of our nature" was popularised by President Abraham Lincoln, though apparently he didn't coin it. Nevertheless, it probably is one of the stronger thought provoking expressions used in an inauguration address. Sadly, as strong as that speech may have been, it did not stop the civil war. One can only wonder,... Continue Reading →
Personally I thought the crop top first entered the casual fashion scene in the 80s, but it turns out that this midriff baring garment has been around for much longer. We can go way back to ancient Greece, where women would wrap a garment around their body in a particular way that left the midsection... Continue Reading →
Whenever I feel depleted but still want to do something in Second Lifeâ„¢, I find it rather relaxing to update one of the shapes in my Marketplace store.

Many of us will create a Second Life that is so painfully perfect, our real lives will never measure up to... Continue Reading →
One of my little projects in Second Lifeâ„¢ (oh I do love a little project!) is to update my shapes to include versions for various mesh bodies. I used to make shapes for specific mesh body and head combinations, but I thought it would be nice to include versions that have been tweaked slightly for... Continue Reading →
The Crown - There are those little moments in live upon which I ask myself the question if The Queen ever had to put up with that shit. Just little things, like butter straight from the fridge being too hard to spread, causing one's toast to break when one attempts to butter it. Or shoelaces... Continue Reading →
This episode of Virtual Beach Therapy takes us to one of the destinations currently featuring in the Nature & Beaches section of the destinations bar in whatever Second Lifeâ„¢ viewer you're using. Suhani Island is little labour of love by Adam and Lya, and a member of The Nature Collective, offering a handful of private... Continue Reading →
Ain't gonna lie, I haven't been spending an awful lot of time in Second Lifeâ„¢ lately. It's due to a combination of circumstances. While I was on sick leave after breaking my shoulder at the beginning of this year, I got more into the habit of binge watching series and these days the streaming services... Continue Reading →
