Although not specifically not allowed, many states in the US have Anti-Idling laws in place. California is 5 minutes while other states have varying degrees of time. I've not heard of anyone getting a ticket for this but there is that possibility. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Mistwalker Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 26 minutes ago, Persephone Emerald said: You are important and not disposable. People tend to stop appreciating those around them, but they feel their loss when they're gone. What is most important though, is that you value and appreciate yourself. We always hear our own inner voice the loudest, so try to keep that one supportive and positive. Try never having been appreciated to begin with. If I didn't value and appreciate myself, I wouldn't bother to say anything and I wouldn't be alive to do so. I'm not some 20/30 something that doesn't have much life experience. If anything, I have too much of it. This is not an inner voice; this is how people treat me in RL, SL and the forum. It's been that way for 50 years. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say from experience - there are certain places in the fishing area - where they directly write that THERE IS THREESEX with porn photos, and (not critical, but I don't like it) another place with nudists - where you have to completely undress (without sex), that is, the rules are announced - or derived statements - you are fishing - if ... well, I tried in clothes not like a nudist - I was kicked out, and I didn't even go there with triple sex - although there are places with fishing is important to me. I like that vamps need a HUD to bite so I'm not afraid to fish their locations anymore. I will not go fishing in RP - they ask - I answer - they block - they throw it away. I have principles and I don't like when everything is already decided for me. I'm not totally clear on what you're trying to say. Some things get lost in translation, unfortunately. I would just say, if you don't like fishing in a RP area, then don't go there. We can't walk around naked at a welcome hub, or we get banned from it. Those are the rules of the area. At a nudist places, if you wear clothes, you will be ejected. Those are the rules of the SIM or parcel. It's fair in both cases. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternatively, write its location in a notecard in its folder. Then you can rerez it and put it back in place more easily. Yep, I use the Description field for that a LOT. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandorWren Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 (edited) 22 hours ago, Scylla Rhiadra said: NO. THEY. HAVEN'T. That is exactly the same as saying that someone who is naked in your bed has implicitly given consent to sex. THEY HAVE NOT, and they can withdraw it any time even if they have. This isn't about "semantics," Sandor, it's about the mechanisms of being a decent human being. I don't care if it "ruins the moment" -- ASK. Good luck asking Caitlin that in a forced sex SIM. She won't even reply, and I hear her complain about what an idiot some guy is for asking. I've listened to her complain about that more times than I can remember over the last two years. She has made it clear, that she believes anyone asking in such a SIM should be banned from it. I agree with her. it is VERY rude to be nice and respectful in a place people are specifically there for the opposite. We do NOT have consent to ask nicely. Yes, it IS about consent, but sometimes that consent isn't the same as what one would normally think. Think of it as going to see a "blood and gore" movie. No blood and gore, and people feel they have wasted their time and money, and are upset about it. Edited September 3, 2023 by Bagnu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You weave it into many of your posts and I'm sure I'm not the only one that is tired of reading about it. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moles Quartz Mole Posted September 3, 2023 Moles Share Posted September 3, 2023 If people want to discuss consent in SL, they are very welcome to start a thread dedicated to the topic, either in this forum or (probably better) the Adult forum. But this thread simply isn't the place for that discussion. 9 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong on this, but since local mesh takes up only 1 prim, it seems like it's an internal conversion to a sculpted prim. Which could explain why some objects won't work.

At first I thought it was from the dust in the building , because in the morning the fans are usually on, but they turn them on after we got there.. So I thought it was the dust from that getting churned up.. Around noon I felt a little rawness in my sinuses, which sometimes that happens from dust.. But it just kept growing.. I didn't really have any body aches until I woke up Friday night at about 12:30 AM.. I went to bed around 8PM and woke up from the throat pain.. I remember almost waking up at times during that period and then when I finally did, it was terrible throat pain.. I would say from then until I woke up this morning, I had fever and body aches.. But today it's more like, That was a hell of a fight and just tired from having my sleeping pattern thrown off.. I wanted to lay down so bad yesterday but when I tried, it was like pressure on my throat, so I just kept coating it with lemon and honey and tea.. That Lemon and honey is the key.. The healing properties in those two really went to work.. the honey especially.. When taking honey, many just swallow it and don't get the benefits.. I just tilt my head back and let it work it's way down letting it coat as much as it can before swallowing.. I'm just really glad we had some, because we run out of that like gang busters.. I have to buy honey 4 at a time. too.. hehehe I get the raw unfiltered honey.. the processed stuff is pretty much useless for any kind of healing.. might as well be taking sugar water.. Tomorrow I should be good to go if I keep up what I've been doing.. I think also always keeping my immune system strong helps a lot to.. This is when high immune investing diets really show up to work.. ETA: I'm Curious.. Did you have the flu or did you have a covid strain? COVID, still had testing kits from 2022 that were just in-date. Whole family got it, most of them seemed to get more classical symptoms than me.

I'm still kind of getting rid of the aftermath.. If I ever had it, I think I must have been one of those that never knew it.. what do they call them, A symptomatic or something like that? Everyone around me has had covid, so I had to have had it at some point and not known it.. I had to stay home from work a few times from the boys and my husband getting it.. My youngest couldn't taste for a few months.. He had it the worst.. He had one day where he had a hard time breathing, but the next day was much better.. He had symptoms for 3 days not counting the lack of taste and smell.. Everyone at both of my jobs I believe had it as well.. I remember my last job, I think some were just saying they had it.. Because they would still pay you to stay home.. one guy was out with it like 6 times, which they finally caught on to him.. Why it took 6 times for them to catch on is beyond me.. hehehe I hope you are better now and getting back to more normal.. Myself I'm just coughing things out and blowing my nose getting rid of the losers of the battle.. hehehe Tomorrow or later today I should be almost done with it.. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
