My BLFF (Best Latex Friend Forever) Charly December dropped by Coffee Time w/ DJ Agnes today. Charly was my partner in crime, latex, crime back at Kai Heideman’s latex shop Powers of Creation (POC) in those breezy pre-mesh days.
When Charly heard I was doing a barista shift at the coffee shop, she couldn’t wait to rush over and see me.
I IM’d Charly to come visit but she said,
I can’t, I don’t have anything to wear.
Charly
FFS, throw a t-shirt on and come have a cupcake!
Kate
Just a t-shirt? Or do I need bottoms too?
Charly
Latex Mannequins
Back in 2009-2010 Charly and I were latex models at Kai Heideman’s shop Powers of Creation (POC). Actually, Kai didn’t call us “models”, he called us “mannequins”.
Kai “paid” us L$30/hour of modeling/mannequining in “Company Store Credit”. Many of Kai’s outfits were around L$300, so it took you 10 hours of Nvidia GeForce burning up modeling to earn 1 latex outfit. Although I had no idea back then, 2009-2010 was also the early days of Bitcoin. Instead of burnt out graphics cards and electricity bills to “mine” latex outfits, we could have been earning Bitcoins! 😛

After lots of offering, I never did get Charly to eat a cupcake. So I figured, she might as well wear one. I love smashing cupcakes into Charly’s face almost as much as eating them!
Retired latex model. Flirt, tease & friend without benefits. Say “Hello!” I won’t bite! (not even if you want me to) Over the years so many “SL Killers” have come & gone: Cloud Party, Blue Mars, InWorldz, Sansar, HiFidelity, and more. Mostly gone now. Zuckerberg’s “Metaverse” is in trouble. Meanwhile, SL keeps pressing on. Even so, don’t take it for granted. SL could die, or changes to SL, or changes in your life, could cause this beautiful dream to end. Even if the dream does continue, beloved characters might exit the stage. Savor every moment.
