Here on Mastodon we have: Furries, Socialists, Lesbians, Witches, Warlocks, programmers, and French people. WHAT DO YOU HAVE TWITTER? NOTHING. NOOOOTHING
Here's a thing that makes Mastodon instances work less well than they could...
when you visit an instance, all the front pages look the same.
"About this instance" is a TINY little link under the sign-up form. This is crazy.
Instances should LEAD with a community description, not bury it.
That's like a newsgroup leading with the OS it used to run the newsgroup rather than saying: "This is a Kenny G community"
@skysailor Oh, and here I was about to start suggesting suits as well: http://www.bharatplaza.com/men/mens-designer-suits/partywear-suits/two-button-suit-tsp2703.html
Old Man Fails To Understand New Website
Should you use mastodon for sensitive info? Hell no! At least, not unless you're running your own instance, and you know what you're doing.
But you also shouldn't use facebook or twitter for sensitive info! You don't control those platforms either.
@oldhat leatherwork, homemade potroast, and abusing the Apprentice by making her do more intricate burnwork.
...and we're down to this point to keep the computer running at decent speed. The fan seems to have completely died now. You've got two more weeks here. Come on, keep breathing.
@Eris it'd designed fairly big in the first place. as an XL helmet wearer (I've got a weird skull), though, I usually have no problem with this base design.
More technically speaking, there's about 5.5 inches of curvature from between the eyes to where the mask flattens out to horizontal on the top of the head, and as you can see in the pic, most of that distance is vertical. In short, it works for a very large majority of heads.
@lex_jay aside from it being a stack to read in the federated timeline.
...at least it's not as horrible as the asshat who put up 500 lines of periods?
And before anyone mistakes me for the awesome model in that last pic, the following are a good chunk of my labels. Feel free to ask questions.

@Averly I stick to being more urban myself, normally.
and by 'urban', I mean 'locked up in my apartment churning out tons and tons of masks and everything'.
Though, so help me, I do love me some good #urbandecay and abandoned building exploration.
@ElectricMink thankya!
as to what that pile of leather parts was for, well, more of these, for one: http://tormentedartifacts.com/ravenmask.html
