#DelhiRains
It is raining heavily today too, breaking a 41 year record. Just 2 days of #Monsoon#Rain has completed more than its average for #Delhi for the entire month of July!
Since I can't go outside, I might as well stay indoors and play Yo-yo.
(Lonely people must amuse themselves).
Time for some #Foxes for #SilentSunday - digital pieces I created in mid-June, titled 'Fluffy Snow Fox' and 'Fox in the Field' :)

This #Painting may have been commissioned by a Nobleman to demonstrate status as the inclusion of the Falcon #Bird makes reference to the archetypal prince's skill in #hunting.
Paan (Betel Nut Leaf) is a popular Mouth Refreshment in entire Subcontinent, from #Pakistan, #India#Nepal to #Bangladesh
It is also popular in the Middle East, South East Asia and, as far as the Pacific!
Hello new folks! There's a lot of you recently, so I thought I'd do an #intro post. I'm an independent #musician who uses Mastodon to spread the word about #IndependentMusic --my own, and the work of others! If you #follow, you'll get lots of recommendations of new, #independent, #underground#music of all kinds! My own favorite is weird #ElectronicMusic, but I listen to and write about all kinds of music.
I boost/repost a fair bit of #leftist#politics, but rarely post it myself. You'll see occasional #appeals for aid I repost. You'll see a fair bit of visual #art, from cool #photos and #paintings to #generative and #glitch art --whatever I see that I like! I occasionally post or repost cute animals, because everyone loves a cute dog.
I also like science fiction, fantasy, mysticism, cannabis, psychedelics/entheogens and weird people of almost any stripe.
Another #twitter migration? Welcome, former tweeters! This is an example of an #introduction post (it will put you in people's searches and help them discover your beautiful self):
"I sit, this evening, far away,
From all I used to know,
And nought reminds my soul today
Of happy long ago."

Patrick Branwell Brontë was born #OTD in 1817. He was the only son of the Brontë family, and brother of the writers Charlotte, Emily, and Anne. Brontë was rigorously tutored at home by his father, and earned praise for his poetry and translations from the classics. via @Wikipedia
The #redditblackout has moved to a new stage... from a two day blackout to indefinitely shutting down... to people moving away entirely.
Yes, r/startrek has lifted off from #reddit and moved to #lemmy -- and with it, a realization that we need an easy way to help people find their new, old communities that have moved from reddit to #lemmy#kbin and whatever else pops up.
I started a quick and dirty list that you can share and contribute to (PRs welcome!).
