Last Drop Cafe Project

LD

Seraphim’s friend, Veyot, who is always working on some new, interesting project, asked Seri if she’d be interested in contributing to her most recent project. She (or she and some friends, Seri’s not too clear on that bit…) has purchased several little plots of roadside land around SL, and placed ‘Last Drop Cafe’ buildings on them. Veyot wondered if Seraphim might want to decorate one of them, any way she wanted to…

… of course, Seri said ‘sounds like fun!’ The one Seri got is beside the road in Wyrd. She got this empty little building to decorate, like a blank canvas. She’s never made a ‘cafe’, before, but was pretty sure she should start…

LD3

… with an assortment of mouth-watering munchies, for the hungry/weary SL traveller…

LD4

… and some cosy, well-worn seating, with mellow lighting, and some soothingly rich floor coverings…

LD5

… and definitely something beautiful to look at… starting with her current favourite portrait of the lovely Pandume…

LD6

… then one of the vista’s she took from the balcony of her Hangars Liquides apartment…

LD7

… and, finally, the prettiest little kitty she’s ever met, her little, lost, cat-girl, Zoey… these three images, purely by coincidence, go 2020, 2019, and 2018…

LD8

… Seri left it at that for the night, then came back this morning, to put the finishing touches to her little production. Her friend ‘JJ’ joined her for a few minutes, so they could catch up while Seri pottered…

LD9

… after ‘JJ’ had left, Seri did some more ‘ambience testing’…

LD10

… and decided that any weary traveler probably really needed to play ‘Unicorn Attack!’, while they digested their coffee and cake…

LD11

… Seri enjoyed this little project (:

100

Seraphim was at the Bushfire Wildlife Benefit, this morning, when Veyot asked her if she wanted to come to Kowloon to see the 100-storey building project, there. She said ‘sure’, and soon was sitting at a desk, with Veyot at the other, in one of the units in the second of the 100-storey buildings being created in Kowloon, that mystical, odd place…

100a

… Veyot showed Seri the unit she had placed in the stack…

100b

… you buy a unit, in which you can put 20 prims, and place it on top of the stack…

100c

… which is, apparently, the second one. It’s nowhere near 100 floors, yet it towers above Kowloon, already. Veyot had to go, so Seri went through the steps to place a unit of her own, and returned to the Bushfire Wildlife Benefit event…

100d

… she was pleased to see there were a lot of avi’s there. Because it’s such a worthy cause, she was unconstrained in her spending when she saw stuff she liked…

100e

… like this absolutely GORGEOUS kangaroo mum plushie, by the wonderful M0oh…

100f

… there were heart-rending images all around, of the helpless victims of this man-made disaster, images that always make Seri cry, they are so fucking tragic…

100g

… these poor little guys have had to stagger (they (koalas) live in trees, not on the ground) through miles of burning debris to escape the total destruction of their only liveable habitat, which would literally have been exploding behind them… the heat and smoke would have been horrendous, their fur would have been smouldering, their skin burning, each one of them is a testimony to animal tenacity… it’s been estimated one billion animals have been killed in these fires, and some endangered species may be driven to extinction… these animals cannot live anywhere else, they are totally evolved to live in gum forests…

100h

… and the forests are being obliterated, and will probably NEVER recover…

100i

… humans have done this. Asshole humans like the repulsive fat pig in charge of America, who claims global warming is a Chinese hoax, and that Greta Thunberg’s Person of the Year award is ridiculous, because HE didn’t manage to buy or extort it, whereas she EARNED it through her unceasing, amazing efforts to make the likes of creeps like him realise the harm they are doing to the planet (a lost cause with a deluded, unbelievably stupid moron like the giant, angry baby president)…

100j

… the harm they are doing to this poor creature and what’s left of his home and family.
