I made a video on you tube as a 25 second rant last night to the price increases on the second life platform.
I said I’m sucking it up buttercups. In case anyone doesn’t understand what that means.
It means exactly those words. I don’t like a price increase, who does. But in the real world of economics and the dollar, it happens. That’s democratic world.
So because I love what I do, and the people around me in the community , I’m accepting an increase.
At the end of the day we are a very lucky community to have what we have. Freedom to express, freedom to do basically what no other worlds can offer and the freedom to make money and take it out. In life everything has a price.
Has anyone considered that discord for groups would make sense. Subscriptions instead of groups?
Has anyone considered that Linden lab is a real business that provides us with this platform and as a business they need to ensure they generate income and profit to remain competitive in the commercial world.
Has anyone considered that staff have to be paid. Has anyone considered that if prices don’t increase to generate that income we don’t get improvements.
Everyone speaks of community yet all I have witnessed the past 24 hours is meanness to those who may not agree and vice versa.
Community is about banding together no matter what your personal differences are and supporting each other. It’s about when the times are tough, helping the people struggling and picking them up and supporting them.
What I’ve witnessed is too much negativity and not enough of community.
I’m the last person who accepts cuts. I’m a loyal trade unionist. But I’m also bright enough to know that businesses have to do what they do in order to sustain. Let’s help sustain the community not pull it apart.
In case you want to go and insult me for my views feel free here’s the link. Show that “community spirit”
The most freaky I’m going to be today is housework and more housework.
It’s Bank holiday Monday here in the UK and I saved all the chores for today as I knew the weather wouldn’t be much and well my weekend for once was relaxing and fun too.
I’m so Rock and Roll at times. I know this.
Oh and of course preparing a video. No not the hair thingies one.That can be later this week as frankly I have no idea how to wear these bad Boys.
Apologies all of those working today. But I’m not. 😁
Wow what a long day yesterday was. If I could go back in time I would.
9-5 was a totally awesome show. I thoroughly enjoyed it and Louise Redknapp was absolutely amazing in it. Brian Conley hilarious and Bonnie Langford, my god that woman can contort her body!
I highly recommend if you want to go back in time a little getting tickets to the stage show. Guess what, Dolly Parton is part of the show. I say no more.
Afterwards we headed to Byron Burger for dinner and to be flirted with by the hot Latino waiter. I did like his suggestion we were sisters instead of mother and daughter.
You got to love a bit of flirtatious entertainment. Then it was a train home and an exhausted me. Too much koperberg got me.
Then woken at 2 am by a friend and on the phone till 4.
That’s how weekends should start.
Mother and daughter pic below credits. Yep I was already away on the drinks. Happy Sunday.
I went to take this photo last month and decided I fancied a dance at the time. I was rollerblading around Motorheadz and well this random impromptu bit of footage came about.
I put it in my mishaps bin of videos (yes I do have one of those, with lots in) and it was my little love Mason who said, I like that!!
So because he said so, I have fished it out and uploaded it.
Although this outfit was at a previous Equal10. I am hoping you can still find it via Rama.
