I’m on the Second Life Marketplace!! If you don’t see my photo, refresh a few times. It’s always exciting to be invited by the Lab to submit a photo, so THANK YOU Linden Lab!! 🙂
If you guys want to do a pile-up of my photograph, I have added it to Flickr:
Welcome to the Adult Hub, a region meant for residents over 18. It seems that Second Life has built a tasteful adult playground with beaches, clubs, pools, dancing areas, camping areas, waterfalls, all for new residents. New residents are guided to enter the Adult Hub through a portal at the Welcome Hub. Established residents can come too, and they can teleport directly to the Adult Hub. To enter, you must change your maturity rating to Adult and agree to the region rules. However, there’s no real age verification in Second Life, so technically it’s still possible that underage players could access the Adult Hub.
When I heard about Second Life launching a sex region, I was prepared to be grossed out. Ew, why? Why does Second Life want to attract people who come here wanting sex on day 1? Why make that the opening experience for new residents? But I visited the Adult Hub with an open mind and left with a deeper understanding of why Second Life made this.
Back in December 2023, Second Life teased that “Something Spicy” was coming. It was this Adult Hub, but for reasons that didn’t launch then, it launched now in March 2026. Is Second Life now ready for adults to come, along with their shiny new (sorta working) mobile app?
This is an adult game, and some adult areas in Second Life aren’t moderated. Anything goes. It can be scary and overwhelming. This feels more like a controlled environment for adults entering that side of Second Life, especially those who may appreciate moderation and tasteful decor.
Not everything on this region is about sex. There are lots of seating areas set up for conversations. Sex is one activity, but it’s well hidden inside the furniture. You don’t see pose balls anywhere, and the hints of sex are subtle.
My time wandering around this region as a 1 day old avatar, I only met established residents. Not a single new resident in sight. Not yet. A Second Life Mentor greeted me, and everyone I encountered was nice. They flocked to my noob avatar, introduced themselves, and tried to include me in conversation. That was nice. I think current residents are really trying to make new people feel welcome and stay. Maybe for the platform’s survival.
Even though I was prepared to run away from here and never look back, I think I’d go back as my main avatar. It’s an Adult Hub, but it’s not just a sex space. It feels more like a general adult social area where different things can happen. Of course my experience could be rare. This region could eventually turn into a full sex dungeon, dicks everywhere, nude avatars everywhere. But at least today, everyone I saw was wearing clothes. There are rules though, so be sure to read them while you’re here.
My overall thought is that this is nice. There should be more well designed areas like this for all types of experiences. I guess Second Life felt Adult was the draw, and I hope their gamble pays off.
Exile has moved to the new Covet sim!! There are 4 new hairstyles for ladies, some for men and totally new textures on all hairstyles. Here are 4 of the newest hairstyles:

Oh, while you're there, don't forget to pick up the Ursula hairstyle in 'Candy Melt' texture. It's a free gift to celebrate the Covet sim opening, don't forget to wear your Exile gear group tag! The group gifts are located on the wall near the entrance/door.
Vive9 clothes is a hit or miss sometimes, but tried on this SoftySilky Cropped Blouse, and just love the sweet floral print! This blouse can be purchased online at the Vive9 Marketplace store (by Sanya Bilavio). This made shopping so much easier and lag-free! I love that I was able to browse the entire collection without leaving my stand 😀
I hate navigating shops to find what I want, so the MP is my favorite place to shop. Do you prefer the in-world experience, or MP shopping?

I’m so happy when things from different creators goes beautifully together. I remembered that I had this Dia De Los Muertos jewelry set from Violet Voltaire and it matches one of the textures on the Take it Easy Tote from Boom.
The Boom tote so versatile, it includes 22 different textures and the straps are scripted to color-change as well. There are so many beautiful textures to choose from, it’s such a great deal and a must have if you love bags.
Tiny Bird released the St Augustine dress recently, and I’m so impressed with the textures and the sculpted attachments. It’s pretty cool to see how diverse SL content creators are — and they’re always trying new things. I had no idea that Autumn Hykova had a hidden clothes making talent! More cutesy dresses is always a good thing.
Truth – Emme (Swedish)
LeLutka – Lola (Light) Makeup5 (L Brows)
LeLutka – Lola (Lipstick) Nature Matte
Tiny Bird – St Augustine Dress (Bright Pink)
Boom – Take it Easy Tote
Violet Voltaire – Dia De Los Muertos
Friday – Dream Booties (Pink)
A few of my friends like the idea of playing preggo in SL, except when Armidi releases something new then it’s byebye belly bump! I actually think it’s very cute unless the belly talks…..!!!!!!! O.o
Yesterday Laqroki released 6 fabulous new hairstyles, one of them is the Night, a casual ponytail which is perfect for lounging around in the pink jumpsuit from Armidi.
Here I am wearing my newly created preggo shape just to demonstrate that posh Armidi stuff can be worn with a belly bump!! To create your own slightly preggo shape, bump up your body fat!!! I went from 0% to 12% for this purpose, and changed my belly size from 0 to 60. There are a lot of people that buy premade pregnant shapes, but it’s very easy to create on your own.
Cute!! This jump is so hot I’m going to save it as part of my Default Gogo outfit.
Hello! I visited my friend Lydiah and had to play inside the rare Pink tent she had. I still don’t have this tent, I was crying on the inside the entire time. Some day, you shall be mine, little Pink Paris tent.
Hope that means that they eventually got rid of a certain other shot.
It was a bit absurd that half the grid participates in a fundraiser to cover the legal fees against the skin “creator” in that particular ad, while that “creator” still got tons of PR.
I just started reading your blog and when I saw the picture on MP ~ I was truly amazed. So beautiful and talented. Its such an inviting and relaxing picture…just like this blog. Congratulations and Keep Up The Good Work!
So cool, I noticed it earlier today. Congrats!
