[10:00 AM] 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!
[10:01 AM] Celtic Infinity cheers for Miranda ???
[10:01 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: ?
[10:01 AM] 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.
[10:02 AM] 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.
[10:03 AM] 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.
[10:03 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: So how was your week seafolk?
[10:03 AM] Celtic Infinity: It was great, thanks! How was yours, Miranda?

[10:18 AM] Zantyago Mannonen: einventory is being an ass relogging
[10:19 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: I think one of my brothers’ girlfriends knows a plastic surgeon
[10:20 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: could try to get the name
[10:20 AM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Kuhn): I’d argue a plastic surgeon wouldn’t work but at this point I’m sure we’re all, like, 75% microplastics anyways.

[10:23 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: tala
[10:23 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: Perks include helping the group and being allowed to post ads in the group chat twice a day. Add in the fact that anyone can ask for the stick and that is great exposure.

[10:46 AM] Roary McGillivary: If anyone is interested in a good series of Books about Mermaids, https://www.amazon.com/Oceans-Justice-Mermaid-Turbulence-Triumph-ebook/dp/B00MUVJ9JA/ref=sr_1_5?crid=2SNL2JNE7U1BL&keywords=demelza+carlton+mermaid&qid=1666460761&sprefix=demelza+carlton+mermaid,aps,139&sr=8-5

[10:47 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident) raises her hand
[10:47 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: yes Alison?
[10:48 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): So this has been kind of confusing me cuz i know mermaids can be topless but what are the rules for that
[10:48 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): cuz i’ve been woundering that
[10:48 AM] Dana Enyo: The rules are all over the map…
[10:48 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): Wondering
[10:48 AM] Dana Enyo: On our HANGOUTS page each sim says what their rules are.
[10:48 AM] Celtic Infinity: Depends where you are.
[10:49 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: it really depends on the community
[10:49 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): Like i know here at safe water we can go topless
[10:49 AM] Dana Enyo: If you’re going to a Hangout, check their listing on the page and it will tell you: https://swfsl.com/hangouts
[10:49 AM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Kuhn): You can totes be topless in Kelpwick. Woo.
[10:49 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: Antiquity used to not allow it, but we talked them into it with the compromise that we are underwater
[10:49 AM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Kuhn): I took it a bit too literal though.
[10:50 AM] Dahlia Bouevier: xD
[10:50 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): lol
[10:50 AM] Dahlia Bouevier: Free the nips!
[10:50 AM] Tuka (Arwin Bartlett): lol

[10:50 AM] Dahlia Bouevier: Kelpwick 😀 hmmm sounds yummy
[10:51 AM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Kuhn): Is boob sweat why the oceans are salty?
[10:51 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: do you need the stick dana?
[10:51 AM] Dahlia Bouevier: saltwater solves that problem 😛
[10:51 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): Lol
[10:51 AM] Dana Enyo: Nope, this is chaos time so I’ll just yell over everyone.
[10:51 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: so do gobis
[10:51 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: lol
[10:51 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): just don’t get it into any cuts
[10:51 AM] Dahlia Bouevier: xD
[10:51 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): Rhodan
[10:51 AM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Kuhn): Now you tell me!
[10:51 AM] Dana Enyo: In the official SL blog there is an article about a podcast from the Wall Street Journal (of all places)…
[10:51 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): Lol
[10:51 AM] Dahlia Bouevier: :O
[10:51 AM] Dahlia Bouevier: Say what?!
[10:52 AM] Dana Enyo: It is a 4-part series mostly about SL.
[10:52 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: whoa
[10:52 AM] Dahlia Bouevier: That’s awesome!
[10:52 AM] Dana Enyo: And the story is AMAZING. It’s remarkable that we exist at all.
[10:52 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): Don’t we have a podcast at Safe water?
[10:52 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: what they say?
[10:52 AM] Dahlia Bouevier: I’m sure how we;re better than IMVU xD
[10:52 AM] Dana Enyo: So you can listen to the whole thing, OR you can read the transcripts. Go HERE and bookmark it: https://community.secondlife.com/blogs/entry/11847-the-wall-street-journal-podcast-how-to-build-a-metaverse/
[10:52 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: I really don’t know Alison
[10:53 AM] Dahlia Bouevier: Thank you, Dana! <3
[10:53 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): Whoops sorry celtic my tail ran into yours
[10:53 AM] Celtic Infinity: Quite okay, Alison 🙂
[10:53 AM] Dana Enyo: The producer did a really fine job. Can’t cover everything of course, but I”ve been here 14 years and I sure didn’t know all that stuff!
[10:53 AM] Dana Enyo: Do you know what they created first?
[10:53 AM] Celtic Infinity: That’s very cool! Thank you, Dana!
[10:53 AM] Dana Enyo: THE WATER.
[10:54 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): Miranda did you know that my friend roary know’s what each color of our tails mean
[10:54 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: well if we stick to own habits we might miss a few things here or there
[10:54 AM] Dana Enyo: It REALLY is great. You’ll appreciate this place even more.
[10:54 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: oh?
[10:54 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): She told me this
[10:54 AM] Roary McGillivary turns a darker shade
[10:54 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): Red: Very strong merfolk, passionate,resilient, kind and loyal, but DO NOT make them angry or double cross them. These mermaids tend to prefer warm water, and are very rare.
[10:54 AM] Rhodan Fishbottoms (Rhodan Kuhn): There is a drilling platform out in the mainland seas somewhere that poops out prims and bits of mesh. It is really cute.
[10:55 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: where’s that from?
[10:55 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): Ask her
[10:55 AM] Dana Enyo: Gee, my yellow/blue tail is for Ukraine. 🙂
[10:55 AM] Roary McGillivary: and the exploration of new Mesh prim deposits is harming the aquatic eco system of Bellisseria
[10:55 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): i don’t know where roary got it from
[10:55 AM] Dana Enyo: and my rainbow tails are for GLBT
[10:55 AM] Roary McGillivary: lots of research
[10:56 AM] Dahlia Bouevier: love it <3
[10:56 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: the jack sparrow series has a different outtake. the blue are royalty, the green are guards, the red are workers, and the purple are rare
[10:56 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): I think we should do a podcast for safe water if we don’t have any
[10:57 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: and rebellious
[10:57 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): Well no wounder why your rebelous
[10:57 AM] Alison Xiao Montgomery (iiLordDragon Resident): lol
[10:57 AM] Dahlia Bouevier giggles

[11:00 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: This meeting is now adjourned. Remember our SWF goals:
- to assist those considering an underwater life
- 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
Now go mingle and explore! Thanks for joining us this day!!
