I Will Float With The Tinies!

Yesterday I read my friend Ricco Saenz heartbreaking post Second Sighting: For hover height, Tinies gathered in a protest that was far from being tiny about the present struggles of the tiny community in SecondLife.

Today I have decided that I will sympathy-float with my tiny friends for one (1) month in support of their struggle. The only exceptions will be when I am taking part in a major motion picture production or modeling for one of the master photographers.

I am changing my hover height and making stilts as soon as I get into SecondLife.

At the Cocoon House

I had read about DaD's "Cocoon House" on Ricco Saenz blog, Second Sighting (url), a while back. Today I went there to check it out for myself.
"The Cocoon House at DaD Design" Self Portrait 2018, by Bock McMillan
It's a beautiful house, but alas, too small for the needs and requirements of a SecondLife royal. I did buy it tho. Just in case I should happen to be exiled by some minor revolution, which is highly unlikely but it is best to prepare for all contingencies.

Bock is wearing:
Dazed - Freaktard glasses Onyx
Complex - Carlos Shirt - Style 1
Dufaux - Spring short - dot/gray
Equal - Caleb sandals, black

P.S. Please note, no socks were worn with the sandals!

Ricco Saenz: A Decade of Transformations

Read Ricco Saenz great retrospective post on his 10 years in SecondLife, Second Sighting: Being 10 years old in Second Life: a decade of transformations
I particularly agree with this quote from Ricco´s post: 
"I am in SL because it gives me a good time, because I’ve met, and keep meeting, some great people on the grid, because I have developed an intense relationship with someone there to the point of calling him my husband, because I feel marveled at the possibilities of the virtual world, because I still see its potential and its positive reality."

New Blog Header For Summer

This is my new blog header for the summer, isn't it simply beautiful? The picture is called "Tan lines" and is by my talented husband Tomais Ashdene.

My tan lines have been generously provided by my friend and fellow blogger Ricco Saenz. You can find Ricco's blog here, Second Sighting (and in my blog roll, of course)

Are You a Tourist or a Traveler?

What is your attitude, your approach, to SecondLife, are you a traveler, a tourist or perhaps something in-between?
"On the hill" by Ricco Saenz
Blogger and photographer Ricco Saenz shared his beautiful and thoughtful images, both mental and literal, on that very question in his blog post yesterday, Second Sighting. Ricco Saenz's journey in SL: Under the sheltering sky. Read it!

I am here for the duration.

Photoshoot with Ricco

This evening I went along to watch as Tom had a photoshoot with Ricco Saenz for his blog Second Sighting. Ricco Saenz's journey in SL.

The shoot took place at the wild, mysterious and beautiful Dark Moon Avalon Isle sim. Tom was in his centaur avatar while handsome Ricco was a satyr. I could tell that the two knew each other well because their collaboration on the set was effortless and smooth.
In one of the pictures they took, Tom was supposed to have an arrow sticking into his bodacious rump and he was whining about it. I and Ricco ganged up on poor Tom and told him to "man up" and "take it like a man".

While the guys were posing, chatting and taking pictures I tried for the longest while to add Ricco's blog to my SecondLife blogroll, but it just would not stick whatever I tried. So I blamed it on "that darned technology" and decided try doing it after I had logged off.

When I tried it again it still did not let itself be added but I was reminded by a similar experience a while back so I checked my blogroll. Sure enough, the reason I could not add it was that it had already been added a long time ago duhhhhh.
