Oldest tactic in the book, the old "Look over here, because over there you're getting too close to the truth," trick. And, awesome. And great pics @Nika Talaj.

What I think is the idea of being stressed-out, coupled with the idea of losing the joy, coupled again with the idea of “doing whatever it is you do” when in-world all combine to form a very confused and sad place to be in, emotionally. So, doing *something* differently is bound to change that. The question is, really, is it SL that’s the problem, and therefore you should walk away from it. Or is SL the thing that used to be keeping your life together but lately has lost some of that glue... in which case doing something differently is, again, bound to change that but maybe it isn’t an act of leaving that’s required. If it were me I would be really missing that joyful feeling. So that’s what I would address. And I’d make a list of things that bring me joy and ways I can be a joy-bringer. Stress and monotony tend to evaporate in the presence of joy. What did you used to love to do in SL when there was joy? When did it stop? Why did it stop?

When I started in 2007 and realized flying was a thing here, I decided to be a vampire. For a week. Until I realized it was more romantic to walk through castles and glide my hands over the stone walls. I spent my first month feeling-up castle walls. I’m no longer sure why I stayed lol but glad I did 🤣

My reason for the absence of hype is that I prefer Slink ❤️ But I am quietly pleased for whatever treats Maitreya works in to make life beautiful for Residents.

In 10 years, I've seen the wisdom of covering up a lot more!

I just love your work, time and time again.

Fabulous pictures, top notch.

A very thoughtful, engaging post! You do this so very well.

Inclusivity, my darling. Not all of us are trying to impress a "him" out there, yah? Inclusivity in your writing will make you a superior blogger. Exclusivity will narrow your audience considerably. "... This selection will definitely make him drool, her drool, and most importantly you drool..." would be a nice touch.

that is very strange ha ha. i believe in the "if it doesn't belong to you, it isn't yours" idea, which means i don't wander through people's houses in SL just as i don't wander through them in RL. i find it unbelievable that other people will. in any case, when someone wanders through my house, i do send them an IM saying "i did not invite you to my house, so please leave until i do invite you"; and their reaction / response tells me all i need to know about "is this person a potential friend?" or "is this person an alt of someone i do know?" or "is this person innocently lost despite having deliberately climbed two flights of stairs to get to me" or "is this person trying to be annoying" -- and most often they just leave without saying anything.
