"Mastication" by Richard F. Yates (HF)
[Felt pen, paint pen, brush pen, and metallic marker on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and minor color tweaking...] This monster-bird has got the choppers to chew thru nearly anything!

Greetings Citizens of the Hive-a-verse. My name is probably still Richard F. Yates, and I've been posting on this chain since 2018 (when it was still the OTHER chain...) Interestingly, though I've tried a couple dozen DIFFERENT social media sights over the last five or six years, I keep coming back here. In fact, I think I've posted about once a week, every week, for this entire time... Weird. Imagine trying to go back and read EVERY POST that I've made since day one!? So much SLUSH!!!
It's pretty interesting to see so many "promising" tech innovations come and go, but it's interesting that THIS PLACE is still going, thru DEAD TIMES and BEAR MARKETS... SLUSH... WHY??? WHY do I keep posting nonsense, noise, and half-formed concepts to the interwebs where the populace at large can nod and move on with their lives... HA! But I keep coming back... I keep returning, like a broken pigeon, ain't that wonderful???
Maybe we should ALL do "The Pigeon."
Ha! You know what, we live in a strange world, and I like to do my part to make it stranger! Therefore, I write and draw and take pictures and make noises and all that stuff, to maybe try to help the world be a tiny bit funnier... Maybe...
Here's some stuff that I've recently conjured!

(Another photo by me taken of the sky over a gas station with my crappy, old phone... To be honest, I kinda like the fuzziness!)

And, just for fun, here are a few songs that you might enjoy. I didn't make these, but I still think people should enjoy as much music as possible!!!
Until December - "Call Me"
I Start Counting - "Ra! Ra! Rawhide"
Wet Leg - "Angelica"
Camper Van Beethoven - "Where the Hell is Bill?"
The Wolfgang Press - "Christianity (Adrian Sherwood Remix)"
Ministry - "Lava"
Fred Schneider - "Monster"

Thanks for stopping by! Let me know if you're still hanging on from the STEEM days, and what you think of the MODERN SOCIAL MEDIA LANDSCAPE! It's a strange time out there... Be safe. Be sane... Or don't. I'm not really into telling folks what to do! LATER!!!
