ChatGPT on Cheerleading
We asked ChatGPT to tell us about Cheerleading! ChatGPT talked about becoming a cheerleader, the history of pompoms & uniforms, and also explained “cheer spirit” and “sororal values”. Thank ChatGPT!
Meet The Cheerometer!
Gwynevery Golightly & Aero Bigboots have been talking with SLCS CIO Sayrah Parx about the possibility of updating the SLCS Rank Controller algorithm.
Gaming the Rank Controller
Sayrah Parx, Gwynevery Golightly, and I have been discussing reformulating how the SLCS Rank Controller distributes points. More points for this sort of activity, less points for that sort, and so on. It’s a bit like trying to reform the tax code! One issue we’ve discussed is time to Level Up.
Battle Championship Wrestling Starfest!
SLCS’s own Lia Duffield-Warblood (opheliaautumn) & Rena Kadoya (syrena.macpherson) brought Battle Championship Wrestling’s supercard “Starfest” event to Srooc Skytower Memorial Stadium today. There were some amazing matches and Rena vs Lia was the main event!
Training Class #4
4th & final week of training for Plague & Jenna. Driving & Panels. They both rocked their panels. Ealewn even gave them each an award for awesome participation!
Dancerina Starlight
We had practice at Cheerport tonight. As we were practicing I noticed that Dancerina Starlight has the best hair! Dancerina wears OG Flexi Hair. I used to love flexi hair! The way it moves when you move. Responds to the breeze in the stadium. Flexi hair is alive!
Training Class #2
Class 2 tonight - going deeper into performance and The Cheermaster HUD. Looks like we lost trainees Sandy & Sara. But Jenna (wzl) & Plague...

Girl Talk with Saucey
Sugarella came by the coffee shop today. DJ Tiffany was spinning great tunes and Barista Aero was serving up black forest cupcakes. Various folks came by. Sugarella and I had some time to sit on donut chairs and talk about girl stuff.
Corrie, Amber, Luna & Kylie
Corrie, Amber, Luna, Kylie, and I went shopping for $hoes!!! Of course, with Dancer Luna + DJ Amber, the trip had to have an impromptu dance segment!
Five Suggestions for SLCS Trainers
I’d like to respectfully offer 5 training suggestions to the SLCS Training Staff. Each of these is a small thing, but I believe they also carry big implications. I worry that our training may over-emphasize the technical aspects of being an SLCS cheerleader at the expense of of the personal, emotional, sororal, and spiritual aspects of being a part of SLCS.
Sammy at Nuit
I danced and chatted with Alex Costly (alexcostly) who loves designing avatar characters. Her Nuit avi doesn’t have an official name yet, but she likes “Sammy” which I thought was great.

I popped by DJ Lynda’s metal set at Transarcadia. A nice day for dancing in some shiny latex from Erik Hugo.

My BLFF (Best Latex Friend Forever) Charly December dropped by Coffee Time w/ DJ Agnes today. Charly was my partner in crime back at Kai Heideman’s latex shop Powers of Creation (POC) in those breezy pre-mesh days.
Simmy
I was doing a bit of midweek work at the coffee shop, waxing the dance floor and such. Simmy (simone1415) dropped by to take a look at the shop. She’s been wanting to visit one of our Sunday parties but hasn’t had a chance yet. We danced and talked for a while.

OMG! I’m a Russian pop star!
Yesterday google informed me that I’m a best selling author! Today I learned that I’m also a Russian pop star!
OMG! I’m a best-selling author!?!?
I realize this is nearly impossible to believe, coming from someone as vain as me, but before today, I’ve never googled myself. Well, I just did and SURPRISE! I’m a best-selling author!

Coming of Age in Second Life
In 2008 University of California, Irvine Anthropologist Tom Boellstorff published his book Coming of Age in Second Life. Later that same year I signed up and made an SL avatar. Now, 14 years later, I think I’m old enough to read his book!
You can take the girl out of the game, but you can never take the Gamer out of the Girl!
Happy 14th rezday to me! I put on my OG Gamer Girl avatar, grabbed Baby Cygnus Nova, and went dancing at Muddy’s! Weirdly, I don’t get hit on in this avi the way I do in my “Paloma” dress!? Huh… wonder what that’s about?
a Black Dress for my 14th Rezday!
Of course I’m not trying to look like Ana de Armas in No Time to Die! Nor am I overcompensating because Linden Lab didn’t send me a “Happy Rezday” card!
