MIST0226/JONINSCII-TREECYCLE


 Mistigram: the turning of the seasons is in full effect at the moment, aptly captured in this #ASCIIart animation by Joninscii! This piece was included in the recent unthemed MIST0226 artpack collection.


MIST0226/PICROTOXIN-BOTS2


 Mistigram: this #ANSIart personification of an IRC URL-previewing bot, navi, was drawn by Picrotoxin and included in the recent unthemed MIST0226 artpack collection.  Beep boop!

MIST0226/MOZZ-BUTTERFLIES


 Mistigram: There's a beautiful spring day going on outside so today we're going to share this butterfly riot (I was confident I had a hapax legomenon there but surprisingly no!) drawn in monochrome #ASCIIart by Mozz. It was included in the recent unthemed MIST0226 artpack, and if we'd been right-thinking it would have been the FILE_ID.DIZ for that collection!

MIST0226/LITTLEBITSPACE-CHA


 Mistigram: #cherryblossom season is sweeping through Japan as we speak, so there's no time like the present to share this #textart screen, drawn by @littlebitspace, celebrating a seasonal #tea service in the shadow of #Fujisan. It was included in the recent unthemed MIST0226 artpack collection.

MIST0226/US-CJ-LDA1


 Mistigram: LDA continued his campaign of drawing #ANSIart tributes to his Mistigris colleagues here in this celebration of ConsoleJockey, whose program we use to syndicate these Mistigram posts across several microblogging services. (The mutual appreciation society continued below, where ConsoleJockey drew a reciprocal tribute to LDA! But we only have so much screen space to work with here, so stay tuned.) This piece was included in the recent unthemed MIST0226 artpack collection.

MIST0226/AXB-LOGOS2


 Mistigram: if you ever wondered just what axb stood for, it's truth, justice, and ... oh wait, never mind, it's initials for Axel Barebones. And here the man is to remind us in #ASCIIart himself! This piece was included in the recent unthemed MIST0226 artpack collection.

MIST0226/MOZZ-SOMEONE_TALKED


 Mistigram: are we still at war?  (Were we ever?)  I have no idea, but here's a classic 1942 propaganda piece, #SomeoneTalked by #FrederickSiebel (who went on to invent Mr. Clean), drawn in #ASCIIart by @mozz.  It was included in the recent unthemed MIST0226 artpack collection.

MIST0117/KALCHA-MAD_TEA_PARTY


 Mistigram: a very merry unbirthday to you! While we're still in a nonsensical #AprilFools mentality, here's an exceedingly foolish scene of #AliceInWonderland's #MadHatterTeaParty, drawn in #ShiftJIS by @kalchano . It was included in the MIST0117 artpack collection released nine years ago!

MIST0418/SMELLARTERATE-RUBBER_CUP


 Mistigram: I expect that this stylish yet offbeat #teletext screen, like oodles of others, was drawn by @illarterate for inclusion in Rail Slave Games' now-shuttered computer game #SelfieSistersOfTheAmnioticLens. It was included in the nonsensical MIST0418 April Fool's artpack collection released eight years ago this month.
