Raining cats and dogs
It’s absolutely freezing. The kind of cold where you think, it may as well just snow and get it over with. But no. Instead it’s raining. Proper raining. Cats, dogs, maybe a small donkey. The sort of rain that ignores umbrellas and finds its way down your neck anyway. Everything feels damp. Not soaking. Just… [...]
My mobile phone
I hate when my phone goes off. Every buzz feels personal. Like my phone is tapping me on the shoulder just to say, “Hey. Nothing important. Just vibes.” It’s never good news. It’s never life changing. It’s always an app I don’t remember downloading or a notification about something I’ve already dealt with. Or a [...]
A QUIET PLACE
Here’s my brand-new nook, fresh from Chez Moi, A chair so plush it still has that showroom name. The cushions are firm, no sag in sight yet, The backrest supports me no creaks, no regret. Right beside it, my bookshelf stands proud and straight, books neatly lined up, no leaning to hate. They’re crisp, barely [...]
I’ll be busy
I’m genuinely buzzing right now because my friend is coming over from France for a long weekend, and I haven’t seen her in five years. The kind of time where life happens, hair changes, people move, and somehow you still pick up exactly where you left off. It’s funny how excited I am about something [...]
The bathroom
Aunty VaGina came to visit when I built the new bathroom. And by built, I mean I unpacked a box, rezzed it, rotated a sink slightly wrong, and stood back like a professional. She walked straight in wearing her slippy flip-flops, the kind with absolutely no grip. She stepped in the shower and slid. A [...]
Drinks
I always thought a drinks cabinet was a posh people only thing. Oak furniture, fancy bottles, and crystal glasses. In real life, my “cabinet” is a shelf that holds cordial and lattes. But in Second Life? Different story. In Second Life, I can be absolutely skint and still own a gorgeous drinks cabinet packed with [...]
Striking the pose
There’s a very specific kind of chaos that comes with blogging in Second Life, and honestly, I think it’s part of the charm. You spend ages finding the perfect outfit, the right windlight, the angle that says “effortlessly candid” while actually being very simply staged. Then comes the pose. The sacred moment where you’re supposed [...]
Cozy Porch in my beach hut
There is a very specific kind of luxury that comes from sitting down and doing absolutely nothing. Being firmly planted on my Chez Moi chairs, while the rain aggressively taps on the roof like it’s got opinions. I mean, it’s winter but these look and feel just as great inside the beach hut! Is it [...]
Is Blocking Grok Really About Adult Content solely or About Controlling Speech?
There’s been a lot of noise recently about governments wanting to block or restrict Grok, supposedly because it can generate adult content. On the surface, that sounds reasonable. Protect users, protect minors, keep things “safe.” Fine. No one is arguing against sensible safeguards. But here’s where it starts to feel a bit kinda off. Grok [...]
