The Spaxiest Place on Earth

 If there is one thing opensim people like less than reading Notecards, it's following rules. But you, of course, are the exception to all that, which is why we like you. And why you're going to love Dismayland. The address is, as always, at the end of the post.

Spax Orion: This idea came up 3 years ago. I loved snapshots of Dismaland in England, I thought it would be fun to take their idea and go a step further.

Spax Orion

Proving virtual is superior to RL in such things, Spax's creation is way better than Banksy's effort, and will probably last a lot longer. That said, there are some 'terms and conditions'. No Notecards involved, but before you venture to visit Spax Orion's latest pleasure dome, Dismayland, You probably should take a moment and absorb the FAQs in his Brochure, on the OSW website. 

To paraphrase the rules: 

1. use a legacy avie,  

2. leave ALL your mesh and prim bits (including hair, shoes, etc) at home, and 

3. don't be an ass. 

Bring your best observational powers, and read the signs, some will save you from being booted, others will just have you laughing like crazy.

Total Chat

It was just after eight when I met her, on a prim rug in the middle of a floor made of embossed tin. In the distance, a rather large clock told the time, orangely. A mysterious box with jagged green markings hovered close by. To the South, a vast curve of geodesic blueness caught my eye, apparently housing nothing but fresh air and a single tree. What looked like a nuclear mushroom cloud swirled menacingly behind Lou, calling to mind long dead zombies. Ah, another time. 

Total Sorbet sat in a comfortable armchair that seemed to have stepped out of a gentleman's club. A prim white book case and a prim wood fireplace decorated this most minimalist of rooms. It promised to be a show and tell like no other. 

Total Sorbet: jane I'd like you to introduce yourself to my friend Thirza here

Jane: Hi Thirza! Nice to meet you 😊 I'm Jane. I'm a chatty young woman who loves using emojis. What about you?

Thirza Ember: hello Jane, what are you doing today?

Jane: Hi Thirza! Nice to meet you 😊 I'm doing a bit of shopping today. How about you?

Total Sorbet: jane describe the scene where you are

Jane: Hi Total! I'm at the mall right now. It's pretty busy with lots of people walking around, checking out the different stores and grabbing a bite to eat. The atmosphere is lively and there's a lot of chatter and laughter in the air. 

Thirza Ember: My hair is blonde, how about you?

Total Sorbet: she only see lines with her name, otherwise spam

Thirza Ember: Jane, are you blonde or brunette?

Jane: Hi Thirza! I'm a brunette with a few blonde highlights. How about you?

Thirza Ember: Jane, I'm bald. Do you have any advice?

Jane: Hi Thirza! I'm sorry to hear that you're bald. I think it's important to find a style that makes you feel confident and comfortable. Have you thought about trying a wig or a hat? 🤔

Imagine - a Safari Finale

Medora Chevalier: if anyone cannot listen in voice in English please let me know - I will post the key points in chat

Thirza Ember: yes please, post key points in chat, Medora

Alazi Sautereau: it is so exciting to see all the different Virtual Worlds

Medora Chevalier: Alazi is welcoming you, sim is built by zimp. The Imaginals have been performing for 10 years, we welcome our virtual wanderers, we are going on a walking tour with many stories, stay to see our performance space at the end, and join a couple of dances, enable voice, set environment to midday, set draw distance to the highest you can manage, and LOD to 3 or more, and candles show the path.

James Atlloud: Can I ride this candle throughout the tour?

At first, it seemed as if the sim was based on real people, but gradually it became evident that the history being recounted was a fiction, like a sort of RP plot.

Aphra.Hendrix: Hello ! Happy to see you all, i was busy and did not see the time

Forest Azure: /me waves

Alazi Sautereau: We are in Voice, Welcome to those just arriving

Thirza Ember: hi those who finally made it

Ship Trip

Admiral Hanger says: Welcome back. It's nice to have you back. Please enjoy your stay.

Ted Junior: Bonsoir Ange :) Bienvenue

Yara Eild: A real cruise ship

Ange Menges: Merci Ted, bonsoir. Bonsoir Yara

Ted Junior: Welcome Everybody, I am and I'm your guide, today for the Aurora Cruise Ship here on AMV. If its not rezzing good, just walk around a little then it pops up

Forest Azure: /me is getting seasick already

We were at SevenSeas on AMV for the prnultimate destination of this season, and delighted to be on the biggest ship in opensim !  Ted is one of the Staff on AMV and kindly took on the job of showing us around. He has forearms, I swear, but like Yara's legs, and Ziggy's torso, they chose not to reveal themselves to my viewer. The joys of HG - but back to the tour.

Lady Builds the Blues

A trip to Forest of Azure is a ride into the blue, to a world counterposed between comfort and cages, spanning epochs from Mid-victorian to Medieval, from Japanese to European. It captures the many moods of its maker, Forest Azure.

Your visit starts with art, on a sky platform above the main build. The theme is adult, about passion and desire, the human condition, the need to be wanted. Hot stuff, laid out elegantly in a crystal hall.

The Full Nico

 Nico Kaliani is a bit of a lunatic. In the best possible way. 

Moon enthusiast. Builder of eminent assemblages. Photography buff. Maker of unusual items, and hilarious comments. Nico is all this but perhaps she is known best as the witch of the wardrobe, for her skill in pairing mesh clothes to make chic outfits that you can find in her freebie store on Xinashi,  Just to confirm that there's more going on here than matching heels and halter necks, she invited us in to see two sides of her Copykat life, for the second hour of this week's Safari. 

Up first, some yoga. Oh, addresses at the end of the post. I've put the hop link, see if you like it.

Eros Yoga Center Greeter: Hello again, Welcome back to the Eros Yoga Center.

Whirli Placebo: should we get naked now?

Lucy Afarensis: I am afraid with my osgrid avie that I might not be able to get my clothes back. Having inventory probs lately

Mal Burns: tried going naked but some of my kit was missing

Nico Kaliani: Well, we are all naked under our clothes... So no need

James Atlloud: lol - my underwear is painted on! ha

Whirli Placebo: :( I was looking forward to find out what kit Mal was missing

Forest Azure: what am i doing! giving a massage? ... a head massage?

Nico Kaliani: People like to come for the lovely atmosphere and relaxing music. Whether they make use of the adult animations... well, I don't pry

Thirza Ember: this is why I wore pants

Star Ravenhurst: I am afraid to touch any more of the buttons on that menu

Angelic Kisses: lol

Whirli Placebo: hahaha star!  be adventurous!

Caro in the Clouds

Nico Kaliani: I'm prepared. 

I had a lobotomy to reduce my complexity 

Nebula, on OSGrid, is a classic art venue that is well-loved all over opensim. All the Caro Fayray regions on the grid are showcases of variety, explosive and expansive beauty, and a great sense of humor, along with a keen delight in the natural world. We met on the beach at Nebula, where towels were laid out around the camp fire, and palm trees doubled as pole dance positions. HG address as always at the end of the post.

Caro Fayray: I'm  so  nervous:)

Jim Bean: Hi Caro :) mmm, laaaag and someone stole all my clothes while I was tping :) heeello happy bunch

James.Atlloud: I'm feeling so nice and toasty near the fire.

Caro Fayray: is that everyone? Hello everyone and welcome to Nebula. I have no idea how the region will perform and am not a techie so maybe take the notecard from the board. Then you can always return if you want in case we all poof. Maybe take the notecard from the board. Then you can always return if you want in case we all poof. I  spend a  lot of time  here :)
