🎣 **REEL8 Fishing — Service Outage**

REEL8 fishing is currently offline due to a major infrastructure failure at Namecheap's datacenter. A chiller failure forced them to take over 5,000 servers offline to protect data. This is affecting DNS resolution globally — meaning in-world HTTP calls cannot reach the REEL8 servers.

**What's affected:**
- In-world fishing is down
- Catch logging is unavailable
- Leaderboards are not updating

**What's NOT affected:**
- Your catch history is safe — all data is stored and intact
- No data has been lost

Namecheap estimates approximately 3 hours to repair and restore services. We will post an update here when REEL8 is back online.

Sorry for the inconvenience — this is completely outside our control. Tight lines and we'll be back soon! 🐟

The Way

Below us, the world is burning,
and some of what we loved
has long turned into ashes.

There are steps ahead of us,
more than we could ever count,
and no one knows where they may lead.

But somewhere up there,
light falls across our path.

Look at me once more.
Take my hand.

Maybe the road is long –
but not a single step
will you walk alone.

*Night Fever*

Empathy and copyright.
I was appalled. Not too long ago, this person blocked me because I reported extensively on Anachron's illness here. This morning I posted that he has to go back to the hospital for chemotherapy today. And what does this woman do? Instead of leaving her well wishes as a comment, she makes her own post and even uses my picture for her graphic. First, she doesn't want to know anything about Anachron's condition, and then she publicly expresses her sympathy in this way. I was appalled. Furthermore, my images are now protected by copyright due to their elaborate production process, which goes beyond AI... but that's just a side note...

"I Did It My Way"
A new exhibition by Aphra Hendrix

📅 Sunday, August 9, 2026
🕛 Noon Grid Time (9:00 PM Berlin Time)

Join me for an evening of art, memories, music, and conversation.

This exhibition is one of my most personal projects. Through childhood photographs, artwork, and visual storytelling, I invite you on a journey through moments that have shaped my life. It is an exhibition about identity, resilience, hope, and finding one's own path.

🎧 Special Guest: Adrian Moon
Live DJ set throughout the evening.

There will even be a dance floor in front of the gallery—because sometimes art speaks to the heart, and the heart feels like dancing.

Everyone who comes with kindness, curiosity, respect, and goodwill is warmly welcome.

One small request: this exhibition is meant to be a peaceful and respectful space. If you come looking for inspiration, conversation, or simply to enjoy the art, I will be delighted to welcome you. If your intention is conflict or personal attacks, this event is probably not the right place.

Let's spend a beautiful evening together, celebrate creativity, and remember that art can build bridges.

I look forward to seeing you.

Aphra Hendrix
