Help us Sad Bastards!

I have slightly more than half of the followers here that I had on the deadbird site when I stopped posting there -- and conservatively, 10 times the genuine engagement in boosts, favorites, and replies with the Mastodon account.
My thanks to @Gargron and his team for their hard work.

Differential erosion on a red sandstone mask on the Trustees Savings Bank in Springburn.
The lines across this scultpture are created by layers of different composition and hardness within the 270 million year old sandstone, which means they weather at different rates. In this case, the effect is quite striking.
