2019.10.31 07:00 - Spooky Continuation of Playing Discussion

Adams Rubble: Good morning Riddle :)
Riddle Sideways: Happy Halloween nice llama
Adams Rubble: Happy Halloween nice ghost
Adams Rubble: are we going to try to continue our serious conversation about playing
Adams Rubble: I forget where we left off
Riddle Sideways: hmmm, we had almost stopped having 2 seperate topics
Riddle Sideways: one year we some how darkened the pavillion
Riddle Sideways: forget how
Riddle Sideways: and decorated this place with stuff
Riddle Sideways: but, not this year ;}
Riddle Sideways: ok enough
Riddle Sideways: well, yes, that too
Adams Rubble: how is that?
Riddle Sideways: very good
Riddle Sideways: dead bodies, graves, evil pumpkins
Riddle Sideways: the ghost of llamas past
Riddle Sideways: there is just not much to say about the little word AS
Adams Rubble: did you post last night?
Riddle Sideways: no! procrastination got in the way
--BELL--
Riddle Sideways: saw Eliza online last evening
Riddle Sideways: waves to Eliza
Adams Rubble: you were talking about a transition time which I was having trouble visualizing
Riddle Sideways: who said is still reading logs sometimes
Riddle Sideways: ah!!! yes
Adams Rubble: yes, she commented on one of my posts
Riddle Sideways: probably Not the time it takes this old computer to load SL
Riddle Sideways: Not that transision

Riddle Changes Avatars and becomes a Glowing Star

I share a thought I have had since last Tuesday's session

Adams Rubble: here's a thought
Riddle Sideways listens
Adams Rubble: we all have our own personal method of play and experience from it
Adams Rubble: we also share play
Adams Rubble: like decorating the pavilion this morning
Adams Rubble: we sit here together and you experience my play and I your play
Adams Rubble: you relate to Adams Rubble as she appears to you?
Adams Rubble: It is how you know me
Adams Rubble: you turned into a red mist
Adams Rubble: ahh, the burning bush
Riddle Sideways: whoops, just as you were Knowing a me
Riddle Sideways: bad timing
Adams Rubble waiting for burning bush to give directions :)
Riddle Sideways: these are not the burning bushes you are looking for
Adams Rubble: personal appearances are such a big topic when we meet in RL
Adams Rubble: ahh, the thing
Riddle Sideways: for some, appearances are big thing here too
Riddle Sideways: and others mess with that
Adams Rubble: yes, we make judgements based on appearances
Adams Rubble: we do that as human beings
Riddle Sideways: many times holding on to that first impression, first appearance
Adams Rubble: yes
Riddle Sideways: locking so-and-so into an image

Pema's old subject object thingy

Adams Rubble: and that adds to the experience of the object of the judgement
Adams Rubble: Ah ha
Adams Rubble: Pema's old subject object thingy
Riddle Sideways: ㋡
Riddle Sideways: please say more
Adams Rubble: Not too much to say without getting personal but...
Adams Rubble: the person learns how people react to that appearance
Adams Rubble: it is kind of a reversal of subject-object
Adams Rubble: role reversal
Adams Rubble: once in a while it can become difficult when a person does not know how to react to the judgements being made
Adams Rubble: releases some of the difficulties that a person of that appearabce has
Adams Rubble: especially keeping up with the image
Adams Rubble: don't lnow if that will make sense
Adams Rubble: getting back to the need for a vacation
Riddle Sideways: made many senses
Adams Rubble: suddenly the person realizes that no reaction is a good choice

--BELL--
Adams Rubble: it is not hard in Sl but one realizes it would be real tough in RL
Adams Rubble: it is related to the difficulty of being gentle in the face of a bullying world
Adams Rubble: it takes more strength to be gentle sometimes
Adams Rubble: oh my, I am speaking to the local situation in RL
Adams Rubble: whoops
Riddle Sideways: is ok, repeats in so many places
Adams Rubble: I was not being reticent--I was having a revelation of sorts
Adams Rubble: my thoughts are angry
Adams Rubble: full of self-righteous rage
Adams Rubble: fortunately I have stayed quiet about it
Adams Rubble: not added to the rage that is swarming around me
Adams Rubble: gives me a chance to look at this different;y
Riddle Sideways: hard to be gentle
Riddle Sideways: good
Adams Rubble: we need to be gentle in thought
Riddle Sideways: 07:28] Adams Rubble: suddenly the person realizes that no reaction is a good choice
Adams Rubble: that speaks to something diffferent :)
Adams Rubble: that is VERY personal
Adams Rubble: I am now thinking of community in turmoil with people calling people names
Adams Rubble: the dialogue needs to be turned down
Riddle Sideways: hmmm, noticing a stupid human trait
Adams Rubble listens
Riddle Sideways: One thinks that if one yells some bad names at another VERY LOUDLY they wlil get one's point and shut up
Riddle Sideways: when one should have Known that type person would never just shutup
Adams Rubble: :)
Adams Rubble nods
Riddle Sideways: or have locked that person into The Type
Adams Rubble: as in "you know the type"
Riddle Sideways: e.g. Knowing that a person is a 'must have last word' person
Riddle Sideways: what could you yell at them that they would not answer back?
Adams Rubble: "Last one to yell is a stupid turkey"
Riddle Sideways: hahahahaha
Riddle Sideways: very good
Adams Rubble: it is a good Thanksgiving rant
Riddle Sideways: to good for Halloween
--BELL--
Riddle Sideways: imagine, for a sec, that Other yelling at you and you do not respond as expected?
Riddle Sideways: back to subject-object reversal ?
Riddle Sideways: having this morning problems seeing that
Riddle Sideways: maybe
Riddle Sideways: llama particles
Adams Rubble: pumpkin Riddle
Adams Rubble: When an actor takes on a role that role often appears in regular life
Adams Rubble: we can take that a step further
Adams Rubble: How would my SL avatar act in this RL situation
Adams Rubble: works too ways
Riddle Sideways: yet, we have locked the actor into the first role we met them in
Adams Rubble: 1) it may add insight or two
--BELL--
Adams Rubble: 2) the sl avatar might have an easier or harder time reacting to this situation and that offers doffetrent insights
Adams Rubble just saw Riddles comment at 7:59
Riddle Sideways: SL avi does not have the facial, body, voice feedback indicators that Other is use to reading
Riddle Sideways: so have to know an Adams as not a physical avatar
Riddle Sideways: but a vision that changes
Riddle Sideways: that would be nice inRL
Adams Rubble: this is a subject/object issue again
Adams Rubble: you view Adams Rubble as an object--whoops as a grammatical object :)
Adams Rubble: I view Adams Rubble as a subject
Adams Rubble: much of the time anyway
Riddle Sideways: very hard to remember that Adams Rubble is Being
Adams Rubble: :)
Riddle Sideways: besides making grammatical errors
Riddle Sideways: and typoss
Adams Rubble: this session went quickly again
Adams Rubble: It is much work to get out of the llama avatar
Riddle Sideways: got into Play and Playing around
Riddle Sideways: double action
Riddle Sideways: scary
Riddle Sideways: maybe you should go knock on a stranger's door and ask for candy ㋡
Adams Rubble wants hay
Riddle Sideways: but wait until after dark
Adams Rubble: :)
Adams Rubble: I have a black llama coat too
Adams Rubble: we are in for a period of heavy rain tonight
Adams Rubble: it is 72 degrees now and the mosquitoes are biting out there
Adams Rubble: it is going down to 32 tonight
Adams Rubble: snowing in Chicago
Riddle Sideways: wow what a swing
Adams Rubble: yes in for a cold few days
Riddle Sideways: looking outside, looks like it might become day
Adams Rubble: :)
Adams Rubble: it was soooo dark this morning
Adams Rubble: did we get anywhere today?
Riddle Sideways: yes, the time changes this weekend
Adams Rubble nods
Riddle Sideways: oh yes, we got ...
Riddle Sideways: ummm
Adams Rubble: I will have to wait an hour longer for my hay every day
