CW: CW: potentially strong language and inside jokes about virtual worlds from the 2000s
Eons ago, Ferd Frederix, keeper of #Outworldz and maintainer of the #DreamGrid distribution, and Debbie Edwards made four one-page "newspapers" with a #SecondLife theme named Bullshit News.
Guess what? It's back! Ferd has published a new issue! It's more styled like a magazine now, it has an #OpenSim theme now, and the new issue has three pages. Read it at Virtual-HG, but again, beware the in-jokes.

It seems like the #harassment that Lone Wolf is facing (I guess either ableist or anti-furry) is likely to drive him to dire solutions.
If you've never heard of him, he is the guy behind the Wolf Territories. Yes, that's 128 varsims, 4x4 each. The equivalent of 2048 #SecondLife regions, all in one hand, and that hand is not named #LindenLab. Only six grids on the #Hypergrid have more landmass than the #WolfTerritories, and they make up 20% of the total landmass of their home grid #ZetaWorlds.
Where he had actually gotten to decorate the land, he has gone quite a lot into details. Not to mention that he operates the largest railway network on the entire Hypergrid.
Currently, the WolfTerritories reside on ZetaWorlds. From what I've overread, Lone Wolf has previously tried to establish this on #OSgrid. But now he has launched his own grid.
This guy really has to be desperate if he considers moving from a professionally hosted grid to a #DreamGrid running on some random Windows box at his home and connected via Wi-Fi and a consumer-grade landline.
But where else could he go? As far as I know, there is exactly one dedicated #furry grid. But not only is Furry World hosted outside Lone Wolf's home country, but its website is in German. Besides, as of now, Furry World has 18 active regions. As helpful as the grid owners appear to me, I'm not sure if they'd be happy if a new user added another 2,000. Last but not least, a move to a dedicated furry grid would make the Wolf Territories appear like something exclusively for furries, and Lone Wolf would lose a lot of visitors just because of this.
