Greetings, Myth Lovers! Join us tomorrow for the theme insects, bugs, and crawlies. Which myths have insects, arachnids, a millipede or similar? Are they helpful or are they pests? Tell us a myth with creepy or not so creepy crawlies and use the hashtag […] [Original post on thefolklore.cafe]

#vss365 enchanted #haikuchallenge Serene #Fantaiku fae #fantasy #haiku #poetrylovers #BlueSkyPoet Enchanted by the Serene fae, I wished myself Away: I vanished!

Eeesh! #Monday, and I'm not showing up here until noon! Don't ask. It's pouring rain in #SoCal - the 1st of 2, 3? storm fronts rolling in from the Pacific and down the California coast. We're lucky it's not an Alaskan Whatchamacallit. Or worse, something from Siberia! ⛄ Oh, we may get 1st snow.

From @ayisi_yaw on X, the weekly #Fantaiku #prompt starting 15 February 2026 is: #FAE / #FAERIE / #FAY / #FAIRY #AmWriting #BlueSkyPoetry #Fantasy #Haiku #MicroPoem #PoetsOfBlueSky #Poetry #PoetryCommunity #WritingPrompts 🎨 creativeralph | pixabay

Finally got myself in gear yesterday to post what turns out to be the first U.S. review of @wolftwinthomas.bsky.social Thomas Vaultonburg's 1st novel. Gave it ⭐⭐⭐⭐️⭐️! You might find the review here - amazon.com/gp/customer-... or the ebook at a.co/d/bsKCoFL (scroll far down to find the reviews).

Sometimes on #Sunday, I need to retreat from the chaos of the physical world, so I used a Seedream model to create this AIart village where every cottage has a kitty basking in a sunbeam. I'm out back tidying the garden before another week of rain that "they" say starts tonight, maybe. 🕊️🌧️😾

Most horrifying Star Trek TOS episode!

Your #Caturday Cupid aims to tie up your 💝

One of the #authors whose newsletters I receive has a new #scifi series beginning soon. I am eager to read about most anything with "mobius" in it! Happy release day, @simonkewin.co.uk

An old-fashioned #Caturday #ValentinesDay greeting!

O excellent! 💟

😍 My captain's delight Like a sky rocket in flight Commands kiss tonight 💋 #ScifaikuSaturday #vss365 Georganna's Banana AIart

Happy #ValentinesDay and #Caturday! My AIart w/Gemini

Ah! My luck has returned in the daily AIart competition @ Nightcafe Studio - and in a larger than usual crowd. I'd tell you this was a self-portrait, if only I looked so good! The blue Forget-Me-Not flowers are to remind me that "Through the darkness of future past The magician longs to see."

Why not celebrate #FridayThe13th AND #CatsNoirFriday by cuddling with a #blackcat? #catsky

Hey #vss365 writers! I am your next host for the timespan of February 15-28. We’ll have a short but memorable 14 days together! I’ll be posting the prompt word each day at 6:00 a.m. PT, 2:00 p.m. GMT Let’s have a wonderful time together, and support and appreciate each other the way we always do.

🎶Stars shining bright above you, Night breezes seem to whisper l love you, Birds singing in the sycamore tree, Dream a little dream of me🎶 🎶 🖤🤍🐈‍⬛🐾😽 #CatsNoirFriday #Valentines #CatsOfBluesky 🩵

N.B. #SCIFIFRI 02-13-26 Optional Theme: SHIFT [#twist] Can we shift it from #FridayTheThirteenth? No? But it's also #CatsNoirFriday. Put them all together in the altogether? Shifty Black Cats in Space! I'll just step out now.

I think I'm really running late this #Thursday, but I may have scored a major victory with the tussles with my medical care system. It's taken days of research and all morning of back and forth. Time to relax!

My card was mailed today & is going to #postcardartexhibit26! The exhibit supports Blijft-je-Bij art program at Museum Beelden aan Zee designed for those affected by #Alzheimer's. Wonderful #charity event! My 11th year contributing #postcardartexhibit #artistssupportingalzheimers #artforacause

Meow! 😻 😽 Do you have a present for your Valentine Cat? 😹😹🎁💝🐾 #CatsOfBluesky

"But once as an eider-duck homeward I came Thou didst lie 'neath a rock, with thy rifle didst aim; In my breast thou didst strike me; the blood thou dost see Is the mark that I bear, oh! beloved one, of thee." Jonas Lie. Weird Tales from Northern Seas #wyrdwednesday www.amazon.com/Weird-Tales-...

Well, it's to be expected from a #Wednesday which promises a lot of literary (and otherwise) weirdness!

Honored!

Are all your devices, programs, apps, services, websites, etc. related to the internet resetting, reloading changed, upgrading, or generally driving you nuts right now too? How about shortages of stuff you prefer, depend on, or just want to learn about? Is it the end of the world? (EOW) 😾

I'm afraid Mr. Mysto can't spell for shirt!

Mr. Mysto tip-toed in to tell us it's #Tuesday! 🤡😱Scared?

I can't help but wonder if people wouldn't fear AI/computer intelligence, consciousness, & singularity if they've never experienced stories about it. #scifi #science #phil

To remind myself to go thru drafts back at X and find the post I've been saving for for such an occasion. Thanks!

Hallelujah! Praise the Overlords!!!

My favorite #SuperbOwl for this #MythologyMonday is the one who ran off to sea with the pussycat in a pea-green boat. Could this be the couple of nursery rhyme fame? They met one day when the feline photobombed the fowl family portrait. Perhaps they ran away in shame - or was it a prank? My AIart.

It is daffodil season. I love how they come back each year. I dig them up and move them each year. #bloomscrolling

What a fun way to start a week - with a Superbowl pun! On this #Monday, I hope a certain owly friend is participating in the #MythologyMonday meme of #SuperbOwl - you know hoo you are!

Great little free ebook I got thru Book Funnel. #booksky You might be able to read it in your browser from: read.bookfunnel.com/3boxoyt4ax It is a lovely piece that felt so familiar, as if I were sliding around in my own mind. Author Red Lagoe has many more books at www.amazon.com/stores/Red-L...

Last night I fell into a sort of numb bliss at finding the Twin Peaks TV series (1990-91) to see for free @ Pluto.tv on my laptop (my TV's probably dead now). Badalamenti's music still make me gasp as it twists my heart, then soothes my soul. Guess I'll be a Peaks Freak till I die! FIRE walk with me

Hope you're having a peaceful #Sunday like my lying lions! In "middle school" (we called it Junior High), some of the bullies called me "Georganna Banana", so I can't resist using Google's AI imager, Nano Banana Pro, once in a while for some fun, easy art.

I'm going to be watching HIGH GROUND (2020) repeatedly. I think I'm seeing the land described in the "crocodile" books by Graham Wilson I've dipped into & especially in "Arnhem's Kaleidoscope Children", a memoir. See amazon.com/stores/Graha... for all his books. #booksky www.imdb.com/video/vi3634...

With careful attention, we might be able not to glitch up this scintillating #Saturday!

Found a film featuring Australian Aborigines in Arnhem Land (north). I've been enthralled with these native peoples and all the AU outback areas. Stories don't matter much to me, it's the land & people I enjoy. You 2 might like High Ground (2020). imdb.com/title/tt9286... imdb.com/video/vi3634...
