I've created a new group to show solidarity with anti-fascism and opposition to other hate groups and individuals. No heavy deal, you don't have to do anything to show your solidarity other than joining the group, and maybe, if you feel you can, displaying the logo on your region or in your club to show that hate groups and anyone associated with them are not welcome.

Obviously those who want to get a little more involved are more than welcome to do so, such as arranging events with a prominent anti-fascist message, even if it's only displaying the logo on promotional materials, to much more ambitious things such as art displays that highlight the dangers of the extreme-right.

To remove all doubt, fascists and their fellow-travellers, (Trumpists, Faragists, Lepenists etc are not welcome! Prospective members are vetted and are subject to approval, which means it's a safe space for the wary.

This isn't a political group, so you won't be bombarded with ideology, it's simply a group for those of us who share a similar belief, that all humans are worthy. I'll even go so far as to say that members should leave both their politics and their religion at the door, whilst anti-fascism is a political stance, it is one that crosses political boundaries. We don't even have to like each other to show solidarity, a point worth remembering.

************************************************************************************************************

Just a heads up. I strive to keep moderation light on comments to group posts, but obviously I will not tolerate intolerance or other comments that seek to denigrate other human beings in any way. Any such comments WILL be removed. Cogent and fair and relevant comment will be respected, even if not agreed with.

To anyone complaining that their rights to free speech have been violated, I point out to you that I am the moderator and it is me who decides what is allowed and what is not. If you wish to express an opinion that is contrary to the values of this group, you are free to do so, somewhere else.

Copies of the logo are available, as is an at present limited range of clothing with an ant--fascist message on it. Please ask me for copies, stating in the case of clothing, what avatar you use. Thank you.

Let me tell you about the Genesis Roleplay Grid - This grid was originally started by my daughter, Metal Tango, while I was on another grid with a group of friends. Things went south on that grid for reasons that I do not need to explain so my daughter extended a welcome to my friends to join us on Genesis Roleplay Grid with the understanding that each could have a 1 - 4x4 region with no rent to pay but donations if they could afford it. Everyone has worked very hard to develop this grid and make it a success and build up a good reputation in the virtual community. Seventy five percent of our membership on the grid are Role players and we have fun when we get together, 95% of the regions are developed either for role play or personal use with a scattered few for other reasons because people like to build their dream region. It is a well organized, well run grid with an amazing tech whom we adore and those who were there with us from the ground floor up, working, striving and struggling to make it a success have donated financially as well, particularly Metal Tango. We have an amazing mall with incredible builds and most of the regions on the grid are regions that I personally have developed, some with a little help from other members. If you see a region under my profile, rest assured I built and developed it. But....no bragging, because I have been to other grids and some of them are positively amazingly gorgeous and well done and our Virtual Community is about encouraging one another and working together and supporting each other in our endeavors. Genesis Roleplay Grid isn't about me, it's about every single person on that grid for they are all precious and very talented in their own right, whether creative writing, building, decorating, organizing, everyone has a role to play in making the grid a success. So to our members I say THANK YOU! To my Daughter who has shouldered the burden for these few years, even while struggling through nursing school, I say THANK YOU! To the creative and talented Role Players who make it so much fun and interesting, I say THANK YOU! To the many contributing builders on our grid, I say THANK YOU! To our many (and growing) list of vendors, I say THANK YOU! Together we can do better. If you're interested in role play, contact me or Metal Tango. Blessings and much love, Lavia

Another new shop going in at the Masala Al Kohav Mall (We dropped the Star Jinn Palisade because it confused people). Ezra Millberry will be opening an "Odds & Ends" shop and the Masala Al Kohav Mall is proud to sponsor Ezra in this endeavor. We have many fantastic builders who contribute to the Masala Al Kohav Mall (Masala Al Kohav is Hebrew for "Wish Upon A Star") all working to make sure your wishes for positively gorgeous builds, working, functioning builds, easy to use builds to make your Virtual Life adventure fun, ESPECIALLY immersive ROLEPLAY!! This is why our grid is called the Genesis Roleplay Grid. We currently have land available at very reasonable prices and if you're looking to own a grid of your own, talk to us, we know a guy!! We haveFall's For You Animesh people, Ares Gizmos, Indego's Market and Boutique, Creations by Tainted Angel, Thor's Forge contributed by our friend Thorvaldr Ragnarrson, and of course Your's truly and I build under many names because of the role play I'm involved in, but mostly this name and my shop is Lavia's Little Corner. Stop in and shop till you drop and if you can't find what your looking for, just ask, I might know who does. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

At the present time, Amoa Nude Beach is experiencing technical difficulties. I cannot say how long this will take to repair, but I apologize for this asset issue happening a second time in 2 weeks.

It is apparently being caused by Dreamgrid software that I, nor the grid owners have control over, which causes a failure of assets.

So we have missing textures, failing scripts, body in-completions among the most notable. I will have to redo alot of it again. Sorry for the inconvenience.

We should have it all done by the end of the day today, early tomorrow morning at the latest. So bear with us we've got all the little people working their butts off to get it done! Thank you for understanding because until it's done the teleport system is going to be a wild ride !!!

@Ferdzee crafted a dynamic tapestry woven with threads of digital elements, textures, and lighting. The grandeur of the Grand Tower and the welcoming embrace of the city gates collectively symbolize the spirit of Japan. Thank you 🏯💗
