A Voice

I thought long and hard about how I might respond to the call for a boycott. I thought so long and hard about it, and then got distracted by some unrelated stupidity, that I didn’t get this posted yesterday as planned! I don’t plan to go through all the various points and counter-points that have been flying fast and furious in recent days. I’ve heard substantive things on both sides that I can understand.

What I will say is that I’ve been incredibly disappointed every time I’ve heard a person suggest that members of this community who do not completely agree with them should just be quiet and get or stay out of the way. My response is to share my own voice — because I can, and because I should, without fear of being put on someone’s “list”. We should all be able to do at least that much in this community.

The voice I choose today, and most every day I blog, is one of celebration of some of the amazing designers whose talent and work I enjoy daily. They make my life in SL rich, interesting, and diverse. I admire their art, their humor, and their passion for what they do. It’s my honor to buy their work, and share it on my blog.
