Apologies for the lack of posts recently, but a period of illness that I thought I’d got over turned into something a little more serious, requiring a few days in hospital and now a lengthy period of convalescence at home. I’m fine, I’m recovering, it’s not something that will impact me in the long term, but it has left me very tired and weak.

Finally I’ve turned the corner with it, and I’m now getting a little stronger every day, but still exhausted a lot of the time.

I will be back soon, I promise!

This has been quite a wretched naturist summer for me. Poor weather,ill health. And one of those irregular periods where SL didn’t excite me. I’ve got the bug back again…it usually only needs one post,one item to be purchased, to reinvigorate me. And now it has.  The best way to move forwards is sometimes to look backwards. So here’s a small vintage gallery to get us started for the autumn/fall. Ella

An absolutely bizarre moment occurred last week when a woman claimed, at a meeting held by US politician Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, that to save the planet the solution was to eat babies. :-O

It turns out the exchange was some sort of stunt, but the power of social media was evident when the video went viral, and a meme was born.

To demonstrate how things move quickly in Second Life, there is already a T shirt bearing the #eatthebabies hashtag.

Not remotely ‘naturist’, I know, but the real life exchange demonstrates what an increasingly bizarre world we inhabit. It seems to me that it just gets stranger and stranger and it’s hard to know what’s real and what’s not anymore.

I dunno, where naturism was once seen as some weird, fringe lifestyle, it feels like it’s becoming increasingly normalised as a result of the weirdness surrounding us all.
