IT'S THE FIRST ANNUAL MASTODON #PledgeDrive

"When you saw only one set of footprints,
It was then that John Mastodon carried you."

I always imagined running Mastodon to be something like the worst parts of retail, food service and an office job mixed with about 25mL of thanks per year.

Show @Gargron and crew some some love.

Did you know that @stux
has a bite strength of 1,800psi?

That's the same as a Hippopotamus!

Poor Stuxy, going through retainers just grinding those teeth to oblivion worrying about how to keep the server running.

We can help!

Let's keep Stuxy stocked with titanium retainers and alleviate that stress with DONATIONS!

😎 I heard the cool kids hang out on Universeodon 😎

@wild1145 is probably the reason.

The reason the fanny pack came back into fashion? Them. The reason bell bottoms, jelly bracelets and Hypercolor have not? also them.

Canada is known for many things.

One of the best movies of all time, "Strange Brew" and maple syrup.

Canada is known for two things.
