Okay, clearly I have an imperfect understanding of how Mastodon posts get in my timeline.
I _thought_ that I should see the posts of people I follow or the posts that they boosted in my notification stream. This morning I noticed a couple of posts in that stream that were neither.
Thoughts, insight or tutoring appreciated on this matter.
Nothing against posts with half-naked bodies per se but I'm old and startle easily.
