ADEPTAPRIL/DEC28
Mistigram: Today is the fourth day of Christmas, so AdeptApril has drawn one of four calling-birds If the bird is able to establish a handshake and make a connection, it may even transmit some carrier signal! (See RFC 1149.)
ADEPTAPRIL/DEC27
Mistigram: For the third day of Christmas, AdeptApril gave to us an #ANSIart screen of one #FrenchHen, the other two implied somewhere out of sight.

Mistigram: the family of author Daniel O’Keefe was celebrating the invented holiday of #Festivus 30 years earlier than the rest of us started to, after it featured in the S9E10 episode of #Seinfeld #TheStrike in ’97. AdeptApril drew this #ANSIart screen in observance of the occasion.
ADEPTAPRIL/DEC21
Mistigram: If you’re looking for something in the darkness, this might help you to find it. AdeptApril has drawn this #ANSIart screen in honour of #Flashlight Day today, calibrated to coincide with the #WinterSolstice — the date of peak darkness and hence flashlight need.
ADEPTAPRIL/DEC20
Mistigram: As you may soon be having time to awkwardly fill with rarely-seen family members, AdeptApril invites you to beat the rush and familiarize yourself with the options available today, during Games Day. This #ANSIart screen shows #chess, but the holiday was actually established by Games Workshop in 1975 so #WarhammerFantasyBattle might be more appropriate.
ADEPTAPRIL/DEC18
Mistigram: They say that no two of them are alike, but they all get celebrated on the same date: today AdeptApril drew this #ANSIart screen in honour of Flake Appreciation Day. Start the day with a bowl of corn flakes or Frosted Flakes, and season your lunch with bonito flakes. (Dinner is your cheat meal.)
ADEPTAPRIL/DEC17
Mistigram: on this date 121 years ago, Orville Wright became the first person to ever make a sustained airplane flight (for 12 seconds at least) near #KittyHawk, North Carolina. AdeptApril has drawn this #ANSIart illustration of the #WrightFlyer in honour of the occasion.
ADEPTAPRIL/DEC16
Mistigram: AdeptApril’s #ANSIart screen today commemorates that on this date 251 years ago, the #BostonTeaParty in Massachusetts took place, ushering along the American Revolutionary War of Independence. One lump or two?
ADEPTAPRIL/DEC15
Mistigram: today AdeptApril notes in #ANSIart that on this date 233 (!) years ago, the first ten amendments to the US Constitution, also known as the #BillOfRights, were ratified.
ADEPTAPRIL/DEC14
Mistigram: I don’t know when exactly you expected the monkeys to have their day, but turns out December 14th is it! You’d better pause the Christmas baking long enough to go find a banana somewhere. This #ANSIart screen was drawn by AdeptApril.
ADEPTAPRIL/DEC12
Mistigram: AdeptApril drew this #ANSIart screen for National #Poinsettia Day, this festive Aztec plant demonstrating Christmas colours. I will add that it is mildly toxic to pets, so please keep it out of reach.
