If you like Drama, and judging by the most commented posts on this page, you clearly do, then check out the DRAMATIC* pictures of past Festivals.

Luna Lunaria has compiled a History of the event, with photos, videos, and articles going all the way through from early editions of AvatarFest, through to the Gather region, meant as a place for Fest alumni to party and remember past chaos.
OSFest begins on July 8 2022
(*nah, not really any drama, but pretty interesting as part of Opensim's cultural legacy.)

The Magic Wand... This wand you can point at a greifer on your sim and fire it, and it will blow them off your land with a bolt of light shot out of it. You can also use it in magic roleplay. So it is both a personal defense weapon and a magical artifact, and it works.
Now how to use it? Just add it and it should appear in your right hand. Then go into mouse look mode and there is a tiny cross hair in the middle of your screen. Press the left mouse button and a bolt of white light comes out the end of the wand and strikes the crosshairs, so whoever you are looking at gets blown off the sim.
You can also use this magic wand with my magic targets, and do target practice. The targets change to show where the magic bullet hit them. Then you can reset the targets back to normal when you are done shooting just by clicking the red button.

WARNING, BEWARE OF THIS.
For a rare time, I went out on the HG to get some updated clothing. I know a shock. However, nice place and don't want to say the location is bad or allowing this. But, while shopping, an avatar landed in the region and immediately ran to intercept my walking path. I was approached by this child avatar that looked like (the Little Dutch Boy Paint /Angela Merkel / Hillary Clinton) who thought it was just fine to try to pull off my bathing suit. I asked it's age, "holds up 10 fingers". I said, there's things called laws and second, you are wearing 2 bodies (Proving it's a dude) and you do NOTHING for me. Replied "You Scared?".

This idiot who is 90% chance a 75 year old, Dirty Old Man living in Alberta Canada playing as a little kid (Like the one I knew about in other grids.)

Apparently this old, hippy dippy piece of dog shit feels that Viagra can't do the job anymore and needs to prowl the grids looking for willing participants to satisfy his sexually challenged fetish. Conversation is Note Carded for anyone interested.

I would recommend, as some already have done to ban this avatar from your grids:

Wyldwood Bayou and Rockin' the Blues remembers DJ Moonie, Sunday, May 15 at 6:00PM(slt)
Where: Wyldwood Bayou Rockin' The Blues
Sunday night, we remember Rockin' the Blues' DJ and our longtime friend, DJ Moonie. Moonie lost her valiant fight this past week, surrounded by family. Our Blues family would like to invite you to share with us her life, friendships and music at Rockin' the Blues. DJ Kith will spin some of Moonie's favorites and yours too! Moonie loved her blues, and she loved her Blues Tribe! She loved to laugh and never let anything get to her. In that light, we celebrate Moonie because she'd want all of us to laugh and share in her honor :) We hope you'll join us.

You cannot silence the truth. The truth is freedom and freedom is the truth, you can't silence something you can't see. To those who seek to nullify and mute those who speak the truth know this.

You will never be able to stop the freedom they have the thoughts and expressions they love so much. You're not stopping the cause you're helping it and unifying Ukrainians.

The new Lunaria Emporium satellite store at Emmalena Damour's Ocean Waves Mall on DigiWorldz is coming along. First floor is nearly done ?

You can find my store here:

Recently I have been contemplating the current issues facing the world and the terrible Burdens that so many are carrying. It made me think on my favourite character in Lord of the Rings, Samwise Gamgee. A humble hobbit with a heart to serve those he cared most about. A heart brave enough to follow his friend into what could be considered hell. Sam had made a promise to Gandalf that he would not lose Frodo and he intended to keep to that. The image above is what i have been contemplating for todays world, that Sam could not carry Frodo's burden of the ring but he could carry Frodo. How can this scene apply to us? What can we do? In what way can we respond to the burdens of the world.

There are so many burdens and we cant possibly carry them all or we will break. I feel the answer to this question is to "Pick a burden today that we feel we can help another carry!" It can be a small burden or deed that you choose but help someone carry it. Come alongside someone who is in need, spend time chatting to someone who is lonely, donate to a cause you feel for. We can also do things for others in world, help someone with a project, say something nice about their builds, be excited for what they have created. Also reach out to someone whom you have a grievance with and take responsibility for your part in it. Connect with those outside your social circle, get out of our echo chambers and listen to what others have got to say. We cant control what others do but we can sure as heck control ourselves and our responses to others.

Servers & Grid closed
The grid is definitively closed due to a bad manipulation on the databases, we have tried everything to try to repair but it turns out to be impossible, in the absence of exploitable asset backup, from February 20, 2022 at 6:35 p.m., the gate is officially closed, we are sorry for the inconvenience, we ask you all to stop your automatic payments and all donations!!!

Lunaria on Mobius Grid

My goal with all my stores and regions, but especially this region, is to show that even a store can be an artistic expression of the highest order. Every piece I sell and every place I display them is a work of art.

See Lunaria here: main.mobiusgrid.us:80:Lunaria
Use shared environment and advanced lighting model to see it as it was meant to be seen.

AVW Welcome. one of opensim's oldest established HG grid regions, AVW 24/7 with over 25 regions and years of hard work and collecting. Explore or shop we share we care, all copy all the time & wont cost a dime

Novale winter region is back online
hg.creanovale.ca:8052:NOVALE

Because of a hardware failure, the grid Creanovale has been offline since January 8th.
We came back online on January 19th. The region Novale is currently in its winter state, featuring several winter activities: alpine and cross-county skiing, skating and sleigh rides.
It is a large 4x4 region with lots of scenic viewing points, ideal for landscape photography.

Thirza Ember has published a nice review of Novale on her blog recently: [**Frost Burn**](https://hgsafari.blogspot.com/2021/12/frost-burn.html)
