German carnivals are something else. Today I'm bringing you weird (and suspiciously brownface/blackface) photos of a local carnival team, that took prehistoric humans/ice age as their main theme. They are supposed to look scary cause carnival theme. They invested a lot into concept, but I can't really tell you if brownface is because they tried to go for weird execution of historical accuracy or they were plain racist... The mammoth was cool nevertheless.#mammoth #prehistoric #fastnet #narren

It's also interesting to note, that surrounding area (as well as local university) is famous for prehistoric sites with one of the oldest animal figurines made of mammoth ivory found in the ~nearby caves. So possibly that was also the inspiration source for the team.

Usual themes that different clubs/teams use for their costumes are witches, demons, trolls,various kinds of animals, but sometimes it's also people of certain professions like postmen, railway and vineyard workers.

@john I'm also wondering about this.Though I'd guess if they just went for "dirty faces", they'd do it in patches/splotches of dirt and not color the faces uniformly. If I get a bit of spare time on weekend,I'll try to search a bit of info on the team and maybe I can clear this up.

@john it also doesn't help, that it was raining whole day then(everyone was soaked through and everything was dripping)+as part of carnival, if it rains, the participants mess with everyone by jumping into dirty puddles to splosh dirt everywhere or sticking a pig/bovine intestine balloons into water and then smashing those into people's faces. So kids makeup could as well be just messed during carnival.

@john Motorolas x) I have g22, I searched new but low budget one. Whole G series, I think, is low budget. I am mostly pleased. Also ppl often get Huawei, but I have no idea which series there is low budget.

so far the only annoying part about here is browsing through ppl/posts from other servers. like science server has seemingly some time restriction on older posts visibility? unless you jump to that server separately or smth and then copy paste links to search bar

@john aaaaah! That's what's happening! So it's because the server I'm on, not the other?

@john that's sort of obvious now that I think of this, but also somewhat sad - like inevitable death of old websites :")

@AdamStuartSmith @john eh... I feel you - in the sense I am tempted to try and use it as I used Twitter, incl as a gallery for my works/place to share and promote my work. But at least for now I'll use Tumblr and insta as galleries, and mastodon as smth that it offers - a microblog for rants and communication with ppl. I think it's in some senses even nice - to drop the constant urge to think of promotion and just focus on communication. And that communicating here is similar to irl-no backup.

I was not feeling well so I have been away from sht posting too. I'm back. So far the only annoying thing being here is that for now my timeline is mostly other people's re-toots? I need to search for more active accs to follow tho. And tis needs time, which right now i don't have. I guess scrolling through intro hashtag would be the easiest and fastest.

I picked up Ancestors Humankind Odyssey again. Reporting: still stuck in the organic age. Stone flaking sucks, pointy sticks rule.

Somehow I'm very bad at computer flaking. I break all my stones. And I also can't figure if I could somehow cook food, that is otherwise badly digestible.

@john nah, haven't seen that particular episode x) But I'll tell my friend, who's interested in the real non-computer stuff about tool usage)Unfortunately in Ancestors you can't speed up your stick production well w/o proper stone tool x) or crack a coconut to aid venomous bites. so I'm a bit doomed XD
