HEY HEY FRENZ on mastodon.social! You may want to MOVE to a new instance, very soon.

Why?

Mastodon is a bunch of islands that can talk to each other. The smaller and more spread out we are, the easier things are to moderate. Horizontal scaling FTW!

All of you who fled that one site 🐤 ended up at mastodon.social for likely a few reasons. It was obvious, it was big, and it's where you saw a bunch of folks going.

But it has a long history of being poorly moderated, which means a LOT of instances are silencing or blocking it. Which means you're on the big island that SEEMS like it's "where everyone is", but in fact, it's a giant island unto itself (momentarily trending toward turning into a post-bird-site echo chamber), and huge swaths of the Fediverse don't talk to it, or even see it.

If you want the quality of interaction (and moderation!) Mastodon is known for, move thy funky buns to a smaller instance of cool folks you enjoy.

I guess I am on Mastodon now !
Hello world !

Aaah, it's finished!

This is my cryptid, Quest! They're a shapeshifting alien called Amphimorpho, an open species created by Tuxedo Dragon. They're also the artist for this ref!

You can find Tuxedo Dragon on Tumblr!

Update 10/21/2023: Now with less antennae. The look was cool, but Quest has felt a lot more 'me' without them!

Update 4/11/2024: Tux is now on Mastodon! @tuxedodragon

Pixel-overs, Amiga:
Stormlord has a rather difficult palette with lots of dark and a single dot highlight which breaks up the shapes. I didn't change it, but just flattened the shading a bit. Reduced hunch slightly.

Lionheart uses sprites for the character. I changed the palette but kept it kinda dark.

Rodland actually uses 16 playfield colours, not 32... that's just the right sidebar adding 16 as it's tall sprites. Decided to double yellow as skintone.

#TherianthropyDay is every first full moon of November. This year: Tuesday, November 8, 11:02 AM GMT. It'll be in 2 days, 6 hours, & 30 minutes. Therians originally proposed observing it on that date as Internat'l Werewolf Day or Awereness Day in 1996, 26 yrs ago, in this thread:

In 2016, a therian, Muninn the Raven, proposed calling it Therianthropy Day:

It commemorates the first Howl (meet-up) of the #therian community in 1994.
