~40 minute sketch of a lamp post for #architecdoodle , prompt 'street lantern' :D Copic multiliners, and I happened to have a nice paper offcut in a narrow size (they cut a big sheet to size for me and I said they can chuck the offcuts in too) which was perfect for drawing a lamp post on!

I may do more for this prompt, I want to do an actual lantern too

#MastoArt

The Greek gods have always shown themselves to humans in different guises and genders, Hera as an old man and Zeus as a young girl for instance, but Dionysos is a god whose genderqueer nature has been demonstrated to be explicitly to be an intrinsic part of him.

Also this place by itself is not better than twitter. It's the communities taking care of each other and treating people like people.

With each growth this is a test whether the communities are resilient enough to take care of newcomers.

So be excellent to each other, stick to your CoCs and let's weed out attention seekers and capitalism.

A few years ago I made this flow chart of which Mastodon posts end up in which timelines!

So, you can see how each instance will have a different local timeline, and even a slightly different federated timeline - and you can see why the federated timeline moves so much faster than the local one, too.

This is why it's important to boost good posts and use hashtags - the fediverse is fragmented and harder to search by nature.

I'm gonna misspell Mastodon as Mastadon so many times.
