  1. Has anyone asked why? I’m not complaining, I’m looking at the future of social networks and 3rd party websites. I’ve automated most of my social sharing already and decided to make the move to get my web content moved onto my own dotcoms in 2020 and then share everything from those more secure home base repositories...so I will not feel this loss but I’m wondering how many others will?
  2. Aws 💙 @Lindal Kidd, it was just a snarky reply for the game’s sake, I’m sorry I hit too close to home! I wish you luck in finding something else just as good.
  3. Granted, and it’s an amazing thing, just what you wanted after all...but you discovered it too late and now they are all sold out forever. I wish my books would get here today.
  4. I’m feeling better today. I thought some things over and decided on a simple course of small actions to take in a couple of areas, to just focus on those for a bit. It’s hardest to take the first steps to getting un-stuck. Posting about it helped. 🦋
  5. I think there will always be a few people who will (ab)use them in a belligerent way, like everything else. Both pushing for and arguing against in subtle and not so subtle ways. It’s difficult, people have lots of feelings about how they are portrayed, perceived, received, rejected. The Merry Christmas example is one of trying to force people into referring to the winter holidays, something that is not inherently personal, in only your one way, ...but personal pronouns are specifically about and refer to the self and so I think exercising some jurisdiction over what you are called or how you are referred to as a person to better reflect who you are is OK. People are often referred to by a pronoun within their hearing. especially younger people and students. It has an impact. I collect ball jointed dolls with interchangeable parts and I write character stories for a few. I have one character that I started in 2009 who is just represented by a faceplate that can be put on a male or female doll and they frequently body-snatch...I have always used the Z pronouns because it just ’fits’. So while I fortunately don’t need to (re)define it personally, I also see the topic as an important one for exploring character narratives too. Funny thing that in 2009, some fellow doll hobby people found the pronouns in my story quite pretentious. Now, not so much.
  6. Granted but in exchange, you receive a crabby and incontinent miniature Chihuahua. I wish I had a shorter ‘to do’ list.
  7. I think locking is good. It leaves the history up. For social threads, this (and plonk).
  8. Great agreement under duress, yeesh....TASTE
  9. Granted but several numbers or letters were transposed, kicking the whole thing back and deadlines missed, resubmission is required, complete with renewed wait times. I wish I had a donut.
  10. That boat sailed in 1960 though? I was annoyed by it until I learned the sort order because it confused me. Once I learned, I was OK. It made sense again. But my response to things that annoy me is usually ‘how can I minimize the impact on myself’. I have more success with that.
  11. Hud madness, then finished test photo. I don’t mind. My RL makeup table sometimes looks somewhat similar...sometimes you just want to see ‘all the stuff’.
  12. this is my first and oldest account. Fauve from a trashy romance novel heroine (and because yes, art) Aeon because it was the first surname name I didn’t dislike. Can you tell I’m a little lacking in the patience department? I didn’t think anything of it...first of all I never dreamed I’d stay so long and second, both are 1 syllable, short, sweet and easy to pronounce, right? Right! So wrong on both counts. But since I list pronunciation first out in my profile that tells me something about who reads. Foo, that’s right, Foo Avon. At your service. 🦋
  13. What rules? I dance where I want...
  14. No hunts, but I really like madpea games. My folders must have less than 1k things in each nested folder (per something I heard about inventory lag, and because I have an always-growing ballet company’s entire costume department plus backups shoved in there) Cam shop counterclockwise half way around an event, hit esc. Cam clockwise for other half. leave chat window closed until I’m ready to deal with anyone’s messages as much of the UI within the world part of the screen turned off as possible. No float text, no huds, no radar, no crosshairs, no names or tags on, no UI sounds, no float text, no typing sounds, AO in the firestorm AO utility. Did I mention no float text?
  15. Granted, but she gets liquored up, goes on a necro-posting spree and bam...all the emojis everywhere forever! (apologies if you don’t drink Amina, maybe a very strong kombucha would get the better of you...) I wish for a big clump of the new Linden houses to drop tomorrow morning!
  16. Happy Fezday. Post bishes, is it your fez, fiends, mammaries of first fez, how are you celibate?
  17. It hasn’t snowed here yet but I was looking up songs with the word ‘Snow’ in them. I pretty much always like something or other by Rasputina though. I’m avoiding listening to Dir en grey just now though because we will see them in concert Monday. fresh and fresh!
  18. Not optimal, ontological. Kinda YIKES. (I’ll take dramatically over-reacting for 500 Alex) 😹
  19. It doesn’t seem to match the sharpness of detail of everything else. I’ve never seen sleeves wrinkle quite that way. The curve where the sleeve joins the armhole seems unusual. I like your photo, but I do not care for the shirt.
  20. I second demo-demo-demo. Only speaking for myself but ‘trying a ton of demos’ was really the most helpful advice for me in choosing Human (not doll) mesh heads and so far lots of demo-ing and shape tweaking on the demos has kept me from buying any that I really didn’t like. At often L$5000 a pop, that’s important. So far so good. It didn’t help narrow my search per say but it did help me to learn just how different they all are in sometimes critical areas, and I also learned that they all add and subtract mass in a bit of a different way so even if I initially like a head, it’s not always going to be able to be shaped into what I actually want to wear. I’m not really as particular about it as some are either, so I think taking time, and playing with a lot of demos is the best way.
  21. I’m numb. I just can’t with it all, so I freeze. I joke, play with words a bit, gift bomb the ugliest of sweaters at times to those least expecting it...but under? frozen. That’s just how it is right now for me.
