This account will be moving to @ozoned0@mastodon.social since my old @ozoned@mastodon.social is suspended for some reason. Not sure why there. But I'll be moving within the next few days. 😊 This will allow me more time to focus on creating Fireside Fedi and other things.

Bottom Right there are multiple pictures.

Top shows a shadowy man with the name John Mastodon and a cancelled banner over it.

Then man with a beard leaning towards the camera with DJANGO DOUCET.

Then a man with a dog behind him. DAN SUPERNAULT.

Then a picture of someone turned 120 degrees in a blanket waving. VAGRANT CASCADIAN.
