Over the moon with my new bracelet and fidget cube, they are so comfortable and look beautiful 💚 😍 . @zoelocke.bsky.social has made an amazing job of them, exactly what I wanted - thanks from the heart Zoe, you're a star! 🌟

Wrth fy modd efo fy mreichled a chiwb cyffroad newydd, maen nhw'n mor gyfforddus ac yn edrych yn hardd. 💚😍. Mae @zoelocke.bsky.social wedi neud gwaith anhygoel arnyn nhw, yn union be' o'n i isio - diolch o'r galon Zoe, ti'n seren! 🌟

Cofiwch, bydd cydsiarad.com/noson-lawen ar y 26ain o Fawrth am 19:00 GMT, gydag Owen Shiers, prifleisydd cynefinwales.bandcamp.com yn westai arbennig.

Cwestiwn cyffredinol (plîs ail-bostiwch i ni gyd glywed gan fwy o bobl): Ydych chi yn siarad Cymraeg gyda'r di-Gymraeg? ee dw i'n defnyddio shwmae a diolch trwy'r amser, ac yn defnyddio Cymraeg syml gyda pobl dan tua 20 (dylen nhw wybod peth o'r ysgol wedi'r cyfan!). Beth amdanoch chi?

It’s Welsh Dark Sky Week! ✨ And in the best timed coincidence I’ve ever seen, my book on why it is vital we protect darkness is Kindle’s Deal of the Day today 📚 Have a read, bask in the starlight and welcome to the dark side 🖤 99 pennies! Can’t even buy a 99 for that anymore. Bargain!

But we'd like to know the whereabouts of the others. There was one in Capel y Babell, Cwmfelinfach - which we think may be in Blackwood. We think another one may potentially be in a church in Caerphilly, and potentially the other still in the family. Any info would be useful!

Some help please! Angen help! We're doing some research into Islwyn, and are looking for information on the whereabouts of his 4 chairs. He won at Rhyl 1870, Holyhead 1872, Caerphilly 1874, and at Treherbert 1877. The Caerphilly one was in the Winding House (diolch @rhiandafydd.bsky.social).

"That Wales is known as the land of song is increasingly ironic, as its musical life edges ever closer to collapse." Strong words in this week's Private Eye:

🎉🥳 Wrth ein boddau cyhoeddi ein bod UNWAITH ETO ar rhestr “Best Places to Work in TV 2025” gan Broadcast! Diolch o galon i bawb sy’n helpu gwneud ein cwmni’n groesawgar a chefnogol. Fel busnes sy’n eiddo i’r gweithlu, mae pob un ohonom yn cyfrannu at gefnogi’r economi leol a’r gymuned ehangach.

Mae'n ymddangos bod yna beth o'r enw #AdoorableThursday yma ond newydd sylwi arno, felly er bo fi'n ddiwrnod yn hwyr dyma fy nghynnig cyntaf. It seems there is a thing called #AdoorableThursday here but I've only just noticed it, so although I'm a day late here's my first offering.

My colleague Gwennan Hardy has written an excellent piece about the issue of pets in the private rented sector. Not a trivial matter! Actually has a huge impact on tenant wellbeing: tinyurl.com/4z7prrbn

My story is about sadness, loss, and missed opportunities, but it’s also about #Autistic pride, joy and community. It’s a story that extends across time and place, highlighting the redemptive power of self-discovery and connecting with others on the same journey. m.youtube.com/watch?v=XND1... /end

Wales has a thriving TV industry. Right? We’ll see some of it on the screen this Christmas. But behind the cameras a crisis has hit the freelance crews who made the shows. There just hasn’t been enough work for them.

Christmas time, mistletoe and… light pollution? 💡 I’m not here to ruin your Christmas! But festive lights can really interfere with the darkest season of the year 🌌 Here are a few tips to lessen your impact on darkness all whilst unleashing your Christmas cheer! 🎄

Ways to say 'because'. There are quite a lot of ways 🙂

Feeling very grateful that I’ve picked up so many followers in the last week ❤️ To celebrate our new home here and the launch of my paperback on Thursday, I will pick two followers to win a paperback if I reach 1,000 followers by Thursday 📚 I’ll sign them if you want me to, too ✨

An over exposure to artificial light at night (ALAN) can have varying and potentially serious impacts on your health. That’s why it’s important for your own health to expose yourself to true darkness. Rest that brain! Let your circadian rhythm do it’s thing. You’ll feel so much better for it.

The wave length in blue lights disrupts natural patterns, like human circadian rhythms and the production of hormones. The same is true to our wildlife. This ‘white’ street light’s chip has degraded, meaning the phosphorous has gone, revealing the true blue at its core.

Found a wonderfully (bad) example of LEDs that reveal the hidden blue light that lurks in them 💡 We can’t manufacture inherently white LEDs, so most are blue chips coated in phosphorus to create a ‘white’ light. (There are other ways to do it, but this is most common) Blue light = Bad News

YR WYDDFA The highest mountain in Cymru and … nope thats it.

I'm working on my book about signs and seasons. I have a Word document for cuts - a home for the sentences that don't survive. It has just passed 40k words. Writing is editing. #thehiddenseasons

Dal i ffeindio fy ffordd o gwmpas bsky ond, i fod yn onest, well gen i Tŵt Cymru ar Mastodon. Still finding my way around bsky but, to be honest, I prefer Toot Wales on Mastodon.

Types of snow!

There are some great expressions for very bad tea: te fel dŵr pwll te nyrs te piso cath te dwybig te main te fel troed stôl te breci te piwc te manus haidd We'll leave you to work them out 😉 (Although ask if stuck) 🙂

Hello New Skies! I’m Dani Dark Skies. I work to protect our darkness, a habitat that’s under threat of extinction thanks light pollution💡 Follow me for facts about starry skies, myths and legends, epic landscapes and wildlife 🌌

I suppose this is the test. I was dxed with breastcancer 26 yr ago. I am a Flat Closure advocate. I’ve posted for abt 5 yrs on on other apps. Will BlueSky support the breast cancer community when we work on normalizing all post mastectomy bodies?

Eryri National Park has unveiled its new Welsh language logo as the authority votes to permanently ditch the English version ✍️ @emilypricejourno.bsky.social

New here. Will probably mostly be lurking. Posts about Cymru/Cymraeg/Wales/Welsh language 🐉(where's the Wales flag emoticon?), rowing 🚣‍♀️, swimming 🏊‍♀️, assemblage sculptures from found objects 🧶, beachcombing/mudlarking 🔍, tapdancing 💃, and possibly other lovely things, may tempt me out of my lurkdom.
