(reposting this for as long as necessary until goal is achieved. hoping to announce success asap so that we can have it concluded and move on to a happy and festive christmas/holiday for all) :)

Updates:

12/12/25: Just an update...we did it! We hit our main goal! Yay! Anything that exceeds the star package we select for Luna, will go directly to Luna's real life family, or be specified by them (charity, more stars, etc)...Stay tuned!

Our dear Luna Lunaria has passed. Rather than only mourn her, which we all do in our own ways, let us band together and show Luna's real life family...just how much she meant to us.

To some, perhaps Luna was a character from one of her rl human creator's stories. To most of us, she was much, much more. It is with a heavy heart that I have shouldered the responsibility as one of her many friends, to setup a GoFundMe for an idea i had: to name an actual star (or multiple stars different names from her stories or rl family), depending on how well this goes. If you like this idea, please find it in your heart to contribute to a worthy cause! https://gofund.me/60f7d925d

Not one thin penny will go to anything not Luna related, with the main goal being at least an "ultimate" star package from the international star registry. All pertinent information is listed in the interest of transparency. If we exceed the $200 goal, additional items or a bigger package may be purchased. I will be working with Lone Wolf on this, and any real life items to be mailed, will be sent discreetly and privately to Luna's real life family, pending their approval. For now, let's just get this ball rolling and see how much this OpenSim community loves and embraces her. She inspired us and gave us so much. Let us give back. Seriously, if you can spare only a buck, 1 dollar of your native currency, 25 cents, whatever it may be, it all comes from the heart. You are not required for your real name or any info to be publicly disclosed if you donate, so keep that in mind, friends. Any questions please contact Leonitas Lionheart or Remmy Ravenhurst of Homelandz Grid, Star Ravenhurst of Tenth Dimension Grid, or Lone Wolf of Wolf Territories grid.

Trying my hand at something new - shoes and boots that I make in Meshy. They are not rigged but they are full perm so you can resize them in "stretch" in Edit and they are adjustable. If you can't get them to fit, just throw them in the trash. I have quite a few done, but I need to do the fitting and make sure they go on the correct feet. When I have more done I'll put them out. They can be found in the WOMEN'S building at the mall. Blessings and much love, Lavia

Santa is at the piano, with Mrs. Claus watching over him as he plays that darn Grinch. Touch him to play or to turn him off. He is at the landing in Dallas or at Dwell Mall. Drunk Santa is not ready yet. You can add him or wear him. I will annoce when he is ready

Wrote an article this morning because I was asked how I created flowers. One method is torturing prims, and I love to use the polar array in Blender to create flowers but another is to mod by creating flowers out of neat parts! For many of us it is a passion to find cool items that are full perms and then take the parts and mod them into a new item.

Athena – dreimal Stil, dreimal Magie.

Mal wild wie ein nächtlicher Tanz auf glühendem Asphalt, mal ein Feuerwerk aus Farben, das den Sommer küsst, mal die stille Eleganz einer Frau, die weiß, was sie will.

Jede Silhouette erzählt von Mut zur Mode, von Lust am Spiel, von einem Blick, der sagt: Ich bin da – und ich bleibe. Athena ist kein Outfit. Athena ist ein Gefühl.

DJ Neko wants to test some new material tonight and she's playing at the Clown Motel.

Yes, it's based on a RL place in Tonopah, Nevada. Some mad genius built a clown themed motel in the middle of nowhere and right next door to a wild west cemetery. Both RL places are reportedly haunted. Feeling brave?
