MIST1020/STEPHANREWIND-FRIDAY_THE_13TH_PART_7

 Mistigram: a blast from the past, this #pixelart portrait of #JasonVoorhees from #FridayThe13th Part VII: The New Blood, was drawn by @stephanrewind (currently engrossed developing his PlayDate U-boat simulator Atlantic '41) and included in the spooky MIST1020 artpack collection released four years ago.

ADEPTAPRIL/SEPT13

 Mistigram: happy #FridayThe13th! You see AdeptApril's #ANSIart #BlackCat approaching! Are you bold enough to F around and find out? (Looks kind of like the cat already did.) Fear not, it's National Defy #Superstition Day, so give a big "forget you" to Stevie Wonder and all those old wives' tales!

ADEPTAPRIL/SEPT12

 Mistigram: in 8-bit programming, the "oddly specific" number 256 is an important one, and if you go looking for it you will find it everywhere in this realm. AdeptApril of Storm BBS observes the significance of this number for programmers today, the 256th day of the year, in this nominal #ANSIart screen.

ADEPTAPRIL/SEPT11

 Mistigram: AdeptApril's #ANSIart screen of the burning #TwinTowers of the #WorldTradeCenter is an apt but likely unnecessary illustration for the occasion of "Patriot Day", an image already forever burned into the memory of anyone who was alive when it took place. This event memorializes the victims of the attack 23 years ago today, including a great many first responders.

ADEPTAPRIL/SEPT10

 Mistigram: back in the dark ages before Snapchat filters, we had something you could use to alter your appearance by rubbing pigment on to the skin of your face.  Today AdeptApril leads us in observing International #Makeup Day with this #ANSIart screen.

ADEPTAPRIL/SEPT09

 Mistigram: we don't want to celebrate computer bugs but it sure is useful to be able to find and address them! On this day in 1947, actual computer debugging was achieved for the first time by removing a moth that had gotten into the Mark II Aiken Relay Calculator, being tested at Harvard University. AdeptApril has illustrated in #ANSIart the log of the incident, complete with taped moth!

ADEPTAPRIL/SEPT08

 Mistigram: we're all big fans of various & sundry, this & that, and so forth & so on, &c., and the glue knitting it all together is the symbol known as the #ampersand, which AdeptApril celebrates in #ANSIart today for National Ampersand Day. It was originally a calligraphed "et", meaning "and" in Latin, but took on a life of its own.
