Originally collected in Ecuador in 1923, the definitive specimen of the Olinguito was originally misidentified by researchers it as its relative, the kinkajou, until 2013. www.amnh.org/explore/news...

The African Civet is one of those animals that feels like it wandered out of a folklore book and just… stayed.
A little shadow-prowler, fashion experiment, clever woodland operator with a tuxedo coat that nature stitched in the dark.

@joyaz.bsky.social HI Joy, am I remembering correctly that you used Leonardi AI?

I'm interested in checking out Leonardo AI (or something similar) for editing images.

Anybody willing to let me ask some questions?

Inside you, there are two cats:
One is calm, composed, and spiritually aligned.
The other is a rage-goblin in full demon armor who woke up choosing violence.
Who rises?

Tag:
#NocturnalAdvent2025

Begins: 1 Dec 2025

HARK!

Merry Meet - A Call to Action!

Artists & dreamers of the dark, unite - Your chronicle awaits.

The Nocturnal Advent 2025 is here.
#NocturnalAdvent2025

EVERYONE WELCOME

🖤 Rabbit Holes also welcomed but please keep to theme 🖤

Theme:
The Nocturnal Advent 2025: A Chronicle of Shadow and Solstice Light
#NocturnalAdvent2025

Step into the velvet darkness where Yule magic truly resides. This is not the season of tinsel & commercial cheer, but of ancient frost, sacred rites, & beings who walk the longest night.

For 31 days, together we will chronicle a tale woven from gothic elegance, pagan roots, & the deep, haunting beauty of the winter solstice.

Create breathtaking, hyper-detailed visual chapters of a world where witches light candles with whispered spells; where Krampus is not a monster but a necessary judge; & where the returning sun is celebrated with bonfires and blood-oaths.

Weekly Themes

· Week 1: The Awakening Shadow (Dec 1-7):

The first stirrings of ancient magic. Lighting candles, weaving protective charms, & the arrival of the season's first, formidable heralds.

· Week 2: Echoes of the Old Gods (Dec 8-14):

The veil thins. Carols for forgotten deities, spectral feasts, & pacts sealed under the sacred mistletoe. The balance between darkness & light is palpable.

· Week 3: The Heart of the Long Night (Dec 15-21):

The climax of the solstice. The brewing of potent spells, the cracking of secrets, & the vigil for the dark gift-bringer on the longest night.

· Week 4: The Feast of Shadows (Dec 22-28):
The celebration & its aftermath. The unwrapping of destinies, the grand feast between worlds, & the beginning of poignant farewells.

· Week 5: The Ember's Glow (Dec 29-31):

The quiet outcome - The release of sacred objects, the final candle, & carrying the season's light into the unknown new year.

Daily Hooks

· Dec 1: A single flame defies the endless night.

· Dec 2: A witch's hands weave a spell of evergreen protection.

· Dec 3: A silent judge prowls, assessing worth not by goodness, but by resilience.

· Dec 4: A letter is sent, but the recipient wears horns, not a fluffy red hat.

· Dec 5: A coven of confectionery and spice dances under a sugar-snow moon.

· Dec 6: Two gifts are left: one of reward, one of consequence.

· Dec 7: A sacred circle is forged from holly, thorn, & feather.

· Dec 8: Their hymns are spells, their breath the runes of winter.

· Dec 9: At the witching hour, the wooden sentinel awakens.

· Dec 10: A blessed brew is stirred to life for the sleeping orchards.

· Dec 11: The laughter of ghosts echoes from a feast long since consumed.

· Dec 12: The sky itself tears open for the passage of the sacred hunt.

· Dec 13: A pact is sealed not with a kiss, but with a drop of blood & magic.

· Dec 14: The forest god returns, his touch making winter itself bloom.

· Dec 15: The kitchen altar: where gingerbread runes hold the future.

· Dec 16: To receive the gift, you must first break the shell.

· Dec 17: The art of wrapping shadows and secrets.

· Dec 18: They dance to burn away the past and summon the sun.

· Dec 19: An angel plays the symphony of the cosmos for a sleeping world.

· Dec 20: The sun is a log, dragged from the woods and brought into the heart of the home.

· Dec 21: A child witnesses the truth of the gift-bringer.

· Dec 22: The box opens to reveal not an object, but a destiny.

· Dec 23: A feast where the guests are as eternal as the stories they tell.

· Dec 24: A dark angel gifts a single, star-like ember to a sleeping child.

· Dec 25: The quiet, blissful peace after the storm of magic.

· Dec 26: Gratitude is delivered on silent, black wings.

· Dec 27: The twin kings of the season part ways at a snowy crossroads.

· Dec 28: A final, ethereal kiss from a love that transcends death.

· Dec 29: The sacred bough is thanked, then returned to the universe in smoke.

· Dec 30: The last light dies, &!from its smoke, the new year is born.

· Dec 31: Standing on the threshold between the past's darkness & the future's mystery.

The Mandarinfish Dragonet is a tiny burst of neon blues and oranges, gliding through reefs like a living spark. Small, shy, and striking enough to stop you mid-scroll.
