Wired is an art installation created by Eta and Jos. No deep meaning, no allegories or narrative, just clean geometry, clever use of EEP and a touch of fun. Blog post: wp.me/pxezy-Mt8 SLurl: maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/D...

If you can't adopt there are lots of other things you can do to help. Foster, volunteer, fundraise, do a supply drive, sign up for your local shelter's newsletter to find out other ways to help. Remember that volunteering doesn't necessarily mean physical labor - shelters need all kinds of skills!

For those not familiar with the (CTS) Wardrobe, it's a great way to organize your #SecondLife inventory. You do have to tell it about what clothes you have, but it makes getting dressed super easy. It even has support for multiple mesh bodies. I've used it for years, and I adore it.

Happy #Caturday, y'all! I saw a great new #SecondLife shopping tool on the Discord server for the (CTS) Wardrobe inventory tool. It's called The Aggregate, and it puts all of the weekend sales into one place. I haven't tried it yet, but I wanted to share it so others can check it out.

I have an outfit I'm thinking about using for this design. I wish the location I took the old picture at was still around, but I think it went to the Great Bit Bucket in the Sky. What do y'all think of this outfit? #SecondLife #WIP

@madebypeople.secondlife.bio Could you include alt text with your images? I know it's primarily for folks who use screen readers, and Second Life (probably) isn't compatible with screen readers, but it can still help people see what's in Second Life, and it may give some folks reasons to try SL.

There have been times I've had to call for welfare checks on people who I feared may have done something - people miles away. Some people I didn't even like, but I did so because I didn't want their blood on my hands & that I genuinely didn't want them to die. Miraculously, I've yet to lose anyone.
