[12:00 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: Welcome to Safe Waters Foundation weekly aquatic support gathering. My name is Miranda. I will be leading today’s meeting.

Welcome new and old aquatics and friends!
[12:00 PM] Lily Lewellen: ~Tala~
[12:00 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: Safe waters foundation (SWF) is a not-for-profit group supporting the development of harmony and safety for merfolk and aquatics of second life, we bring together designers, retailers, sims, merrow, mermen, mermaids, siren, aquatics and lovers of same.
[12:01 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): kæ! ?
[12:01 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: People seem to arrive late and depart early. Please don’t be offended but as leader I will try to keep the meeting going. We don’t repeat things for latecomers – a log is posted on our blog after the meeting. This is not a place for public debate – this is a helpful place. we all help each other slive an aquatic lifestyle.
[12:02 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: Because we usually have good attendance – please take a moment to remove all extra attachments and huds. We’d like you to dress low lag. Big poofy hair and jewelry are big culprits, as are bubbles, script things, huds, and such. If we all cooperate, more merfolk can participate with less crashing. Thank you for your help with this.

[12:29 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): lolz
[12:29 PM] Carline Thistle Studley Moon (FlowerTower Resident) whispers, “I think I misheard her. Did she says Radan or Random? They both sound similar.”
[12:29 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): Well Kelpwick is pretty neato. Victorian/pre-industrial merfolk mining townn.
[12:29 PM] ?creamy? (creamydeliciousness Resident): Rhodan [12:29 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: neat whaty do you mine? [12:29 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): They used to mine for copper,not merfolk. The merfolk do the mining. [12:30 PM] Lily Lewellen: They keep finding hooks [12:30 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: isn’t copper totally toxic when exposed to sea water? [12:30 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): The copper mines are closed, but the town has taken to tourism and stuff, trying to survive under the growing industrialization of the merfolk word it inhabits. [12:31 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): Sure, and the Romans made their plumbing out of lead. [12:31 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: cool ? [12:31 PM] F??? ?? (Sapphira Franizzi): ergo, Kelpwick is Taiwan. [12:31 PM] Lily Lewellen giggles. [12:31 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: please drop a link when you can? [12:31 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/The%20Ethereal%20Element/40/122/59 [12:31 PM] F??? ?? (Sapphira Franizzi): also consists of now-closed mining towns converted into tourist spots which serve as inspiration for Studio Ghibli films [12:31 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): Boom [12:32 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: I always try to make sure one goes in the log [12:32 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: ~Persu Em~ [12:32 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: Thank you [12:32 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): Kelpwick would be more like a 2-season Netflix cartoon series [12:32 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): Like Castlevania [12:32 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: lol [12:32 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): But with fish and detective noir stuff [12:32 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): Or Centaurworld [12:32 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: but no vampires?

[12:33 PM] Lily Lewellen: Centaur World is Centauria…
[12:33 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: Glida you have the stick
[12:33 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): Centaurworld has merdudes. There was a whole song about it
[12:33 PM] Carline Thistle Studley Moon (FlowerTower Resident): Not the Kelpwick Chronicles, with some evil sea god trying to find all the mythical creatures trying to hide from him, but needing to obtain a book written by an ancient mer that gives all the hints to their whereabouts?
[12:34 PM] Glida Pilote: I would recommend a visit to the Semence Light Show which is very immersive and works well with tails or legs.

The destination is:- SLEA Bridge1 127 177 3001 (Sorry, not sure how to put a LM into chat)

Before you can get to the show you may have to accept an “Experience”

When you arrive at the destination it is very dark – maybe because it is a light show – and there are a number of soft seats which you sit on. Select the Carousel and Float options and you will float happily round the screen with the lights and patterns.

If you have issues with getting there then IM me and I will give you an ordinary LM.
[12:34 PM] Lily Lewellen: yep and they welcome mers at Centauria. They have homes there. At least there was mer homes there. Will have to go look.
[12:34 PM] ?creamy? (creamydeliciousness Resident): ooh I would like an LM pls
[12:34 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: okay does anyone have questions for Glida?
[12:35 PM] Glida Pilote: This is only a temporary display
[12:35 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): Oh wait Centauria is a centaurworld sim? Daaang.
[12:35 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: to drop am lm Glida you open the map from the lm you have then copy the slurl to clip board
[12:35 PM] Lily Lewellen: Kinda, funny thing is that Centaurworld almost is a copy of the rp there. XD
[12:35 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: than paste it
[12:36 PM] Glida Pilote: oke
[12:36 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: while we wait for that does any one need the stick?
[12:36 PM] Glida Pilote: sorry
[12:36 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail) would look so good in one of Llamawink’s merdude magazines.

[12:39 PM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Fishtail): *sticks
[12:39 PM] kæ (Kaole Fairey): it feels like everywhere is dead and a little lacklustre compared to, say 8 years ago.

  • to increase awareness in the general public that there is an underwater option
  • to make mer resources (events, projects, groups, retailers, sims, designers) visible and easily accessible
  • to assist, as possible, with the viability of mer resources so they may continue to be available to the community
  • to promote the conservation of rl oceans, lakes and waterways and the nature that relies on them
