This is our moment.

We're gonna need a lot of skateboards. And a scrappy mutt.

And a montage.

While I'm starting fights: every single post I've seen about how kind and nice and civil mastodon is has been from a white person.

“My dear Dr. Dashwood—

I trust that you and your graduate students remain in good health. Praise for your latest article is on everyone’s lips. I have not the smallest wish to vex you, but circumstances compel me to trouble you for a meeting. There is not a moment to be lost. I flatter myself that you will endeavour to fill out this Whenisgood poll before Michaelmas.

Your humble servant—
S.” 🪶

I expected a decent print but I didn't expect it to be this good, it's super smooth and can't stop rubbing it on my cheek, the color quality is perfect too. Plus I also got some cute stickers

Thanks @b0rk !
