What's this? What's happening? What's going on?
I started the Christmas month this past Sunday by rolling out of my bed and slumping down on the sofa, landing straight into the start of Last Christmas that just happened to be on "old school" TV. With all those streaming services at our fingertips, it's refreshing to just watch what happens to be on... 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 →
I ain't gonna lie, I have mixed feelings about the whole PBR materials thing. For those of you who haven't been in Seconde Life™ in a while, PBR stands for “Physically Based Rendering” and bringing PBR to Second Life means updating the basic calculations of how light is represented and interacts with our favourite virtual...

The sexy new Noche shorts I got for my previous blog post definitely needed another airing. As one can very easily wear such a skimpy garment on the beach, I decided it was already time for another session of virtual beach therapy. OK, as far as therapy goes, maybe it's not that effective, but it... Continue Reading →
Of course Pride is still necessary! Hard earned rights are all to easily overturned and we can't become complacent. Not to mention all the places in the world where acting on the love that dare not speak its name can still land you in prison, or worse, a very unfashionable shopping mall. The horror! Although,...

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 →
Often my virtual beach therapy sessions are a quest for serenity, but this time I'm taking a walk on the wild side by teleporting over to Splash Bay. Sometimes you need an assault on the senses to shake off a weird kind of funk one has been carrying around for a while. At Splash Bay... Continue Reading →
Here I am again with another probably futile shape update. I think it might be an OCD thing. I could update a more relevant shape for a current Lelutka mesh head, but outfits with Akeruka mesh heads are higher up in my list in Seconde Life™ and I can't resist a good list. I would...

Hope is the thing with feathersThat perches in the soul,And sings the tune without the words,And never stops at all, And sweetest in the gale is heard;And sore must be the stormThat could abash the little birdThat kept so many warm. I've heard it in the chillest land,And on the strangest sea;Yet, never, in extremity,It... Continue Reading →
There's this increasing sense that life is in a real rush to get things over and done with, as if my life is an independent entity I have zero control over. Time is a monster in a relentless pursuit of my energy and my very essence. Time is the Skeksis and I'm a Gelfling. In... Continue Reading →
