AMV Blue

 There's that magic blue in the air over on Metasea. You know, that magic blue that says family vacations, long summer evenings, and relaxing with friends. That's the underlying message behind the upcoming event here, from Friday 16 May to Sunday 18 May. 

I got a Notecard about it from grid owner Cataplexia Numbers. It was shorter than I expected, and very intriguing. A weekend campout that all are welcome to enjoy, with both community stuff happening like concerts and games, but also the change to get out into the wide blue yonder, and enjoy some outdoor sport, from the comfort of your own laptop.

Thirza Ember: what inspired this event?

Getting International on AMV

Once again AMV grid is having their special International Diversity concert - indeed, maybe it's still going on! The idea, just like in 2024, is to have a bunch of singers from all over the planet to come in and do a 30 minute set, each one with a personalized backdrop reflecting their cultural roots, creating a feeling of vitality and world-trotting wonder from the comfort of our own desks, or, if we're honest, from a nice comfy chair.

Hypergridding has been a lagfest for the past few weeks, so I was expecting low framerates and a bit of a struggle but with over 30 people on the sim, once all the mesh boobs and brains shrunk back to their respective places, the whole sim was popping! 

Mr Mikie was singing when I arrived, followed by Cataplexia, who stepped in when Joao Frazao had an electrical outage. 

Safari goes to Hell and Back

Come quando la nebbia si dissipa,

lo sguardo a poco a poco raffigura

ciò che cela 'l vapor che l'aere stipa...

Safari Animals

W. Gynoid in "Hippo dreams"

It was a beast of a Safari this time, and not just because it was 'bring your your own sheep' week. 

          Outlands was awash (make that handwash only - do not dry clean) with  pure new wool, much of it in particle form. FYI if you are in need of a good sheep particle, one is available at the clubhouse on Outlands sim, Metropolis. No questions asked.
