LauraGYoung, to test

Just a late night #test to see if I can post #YouTube links to #Mastodon. If it works, this is a short #video of my African Red-Bellied #parrot, Skeeter. https://youtu.be/pLgjUJUIFu8 #newbie #parrots #pets

LauraGYoung,

@senfex @riversidebryan Thanks for the feedback! I’ll look into that. :)

Lia, to writing

My current WIP is set in 1996, but I'm having trouble making it obvious. Any suggestions on how to set a 90s mood? #writing #WritingCommunity

LauraGYoung,

@alan @Lia oh, and don’t forget to look into Netscape, Ask Jeeves, and Usenet. I was using all of them back then.

LauraGYoung, to fediverse

#GoodMorning all you lovely people. #Thanks for your encouraging words and patience. I’m still a #newbie here in the #fediverse but will figure out #Mastodon ‘s #userinterface eventually. Here’s another recent #watercolor #landscape I painted on location at Fossil Creek Reservoir in my #Colorado hometown. #pleinairpainting #aquarelle

LauraGYoung, to mastodon

I’ve been bowled over by the warm welcome here at . Thanks so much! :) As an who’s struggled with the algorithmic commodification of , it’s been heartening to find a place that (thus far) is more like Ye Internet of Old. As to : Here’s a recent of a great blue heron entitled, “A Tempered Blue as of Sky and Water Commingled.”

LauraGYoung, to Colorado

My first #painting posted to #Mastadon! (Was having trouble earlier). This is a #watercolor I painted last week, on location at Arapaho Bend natural area in #FortCollins, #Colorado. It was a challenge, as there were sooooo many mosquitoes! I joked that I should call this one, “Blood Bank”. #art #artist #aquarelle #landscape

LauraGYoung, to Artist

Okay so I’ve been trying to figure out how to #post #images on the platform all morning. So far, no luck. Is it because I’m a #Mastadon #newbie and am on image probation, or because there’s been a flood of #newcomer traffic to this server — er, #instance — and it having trouble processing it all? #artist #art #photography
