Resiliency In Second Life
Ivanova Shostakovich replied to Luna Bliss's topic in General Discussion Forum
My first earnest forays into socializing within SL began around 2012, when I sought out and maintained more friendships. But it was about more than simply socializing for me. It was also very much about discoveries I made about myself, and the self exploration that followed. I form attachments easily, and with them, emotional connections that I've had to manage. In seeking out, or simply being open to relationships, I suppose it could be called resilience that I can endure some of the disappointments that are inevitably a part of this process. The how of it lies in reminding myself that I put myself into these situations, whether delight, or difficulty, and by also reminding myself that new happiness so often comes after pain. -
Our avatars way back then were what we had. They were what everyone had. And they were enough. This whole SL experience has always been about far more than how we looked.

I used to use alts for stipend and tier. Now they gather dust in a dark corner. I've never had any interest in socialization involving different alts or identities.

Image size for inventory item preview
Ivanova Shostakovich replied to blaireberry's question in Inventory
Another thing I like about inventory item preview images is that they survive transferring said item to another person. -
Do you use a 3D mouse, such as Space Navigator?

If I won the lottery... 💰
Ivanova Shostakovich replied to Persephone Emerald's topic in General Discussion Forum
I'd stop working for money and do a lot more creative projects for fun and peace of mind. And I'd give, give like the Autumn trees, the April showers, and... *runs to take her nachos out of the oven* -
It’s ok. Multitasking is a myth anyway.

This makes me wonder how close you could get to an impressionist vibe.

Oh hell yes! -- Pet Delights!
Ivanova Shostakovich replied to Coffee Pancake's topic in General Discussion Forum
When things work, or go right. I made a thing, a scripted estate environment control doodad that finally works as I'd envisioned it. And now it's ready for extra fancy features. -

Anyone enjoy flying or sailing?
Ivanova Shostakovich replied to Charlemagne Allen's topic in Make Friends
Sailing has always been my favorite mode of bracing for region crossings. -
What behavior do you find off-putting?
Ivanova Shostakovich replied to Robberinthemuseum's topic in General Discussion Forum
Passive aggressive behavior. Glibly saying one thing while meaning and/or intending another. Expecting others to conform to one's own expectations of acceptable sociability or leisure activities. -
How Does Your SL Look Today?

Tiggie appears to like your shoes as well. Either that or he’s about to attack wiggling toes. -
How Does Your SL Look Today?
Ivanova Shostakovich replied to Bagnu's topic in General Discussion Forum
I'm not 100% sure about this yet, but I think the PBR viewer fixes the weird things projectors did to attachments that employed textures with transparency. Is that maybe why your ears don't render? Ah never mind. Mobile viewer. Got it. -
I think you are doing just fine. Part of taking good photos is recognizing a good lighting opportunity. Wonderful photo.

How Does Your SL Look Today?
Ivanova Shostakovich replied to Bagnu's topic in General Discussion Forum
This fascination, coupled with your love of photography leads me to the inevitable conclusion that I was meant to tell you about a sim I know. If you haven't already been, maybe take a look at Tempelhof in the Ceiram region. -
