So, did everybody wake up this morning and hope last nights drama was just a bad dream?

I knew this was coming in some form, LL wants SL to be sanitized for a marketing invasion or perhaps even a sell off, but I didn't think they would move quite so quickly.I think this will seriously impact the overall creativity inworld, as more and more ideas become "not suitable fo general access" and are sequestered off somewhere.

I'm very disappointed in this. I have been considering getting back into SL recently, going back to Premium, getting some land, and buying a new computer as a birthday present to fully enjoy it all. But last night's events have soured me on it, my low opinion of LL as a company and of SL being a place I want to invest anything substantial in has just been magnified. Reading all those threads has shown me that LL has once again made a plan and set it in motion, and are cynically and patronizingly engaging the community in dialogue when they have no intention of taking any of their suggestions.

I'm going to whip off my pants and wave them in salute, because I feel Godwin will be the order of the day, because first they came for the sex businesses.......
Brenda, don't worry, what they are proposing won't work. All it is going to do is keep them busy talking to each other about it.

OK, today's a *really* good day! It's Friday, it's my lovely daughter's 11th birthday and we already made a sale this morning at work that represents 60% of our monthly target sales. I am not going to allow *anyone* to annoy me, so if you are feeling bitchy feel free to give it your best shot while I am baring my throat. Or just join me in a once in a blue moon feeling of goodwill to fellow men.

Pep (and women, of course)

PS I reserve the right to point out the correct use of its and it's, but without being judgmental.
Super Yay, Pep.

We haven't had a kitty in a while, so I brought one to give you a cheer:

I'm whipping off my skirt and joining you in the salute. This one requires a massive salute.

No, this will work. Oh the plan as described will fall apart, I'm quite positive LL will fuck it up. But the cultural and idealogical agenda in SanFran has firmly taken root, so they will just keep coming up with new plans and ideas, and people will just leave out of disguist and frustration .

In that case, I'll take my pants off as well.

But I also brought the eye bleach

I asked my Dad. He said it was fine.

Well- I can't imagine SL really going away ... there are plenty of others out there. No- not even a shadow of what SL is- but... we have our skills- "we can rebuild (it), we can make (it) better than (it) used to be..."
In any case, if SL does change, that change cannot take away from me what I have and what I have found and what I will never lose again- wonder.

One thing I've learned around here is that LL throws crap like this out and then can't figure out ways to implement it.

Honey (what, me worry?)
