Solo’s new bedtime ritual is to watch Pingu in bed until she gets sleepy. I don’t know whether she likes the visuals or the sounds better, but I do know the show makes her happy and that’s what counts. Noot noot! #catsofbluesky #bengalcats #pingu #caturday
A pretty bengal cat smiles at the camera in the dark while the light from Pingu on the tablet lights up half of her face.

Crikey, a dozen Krispy Kreme original glazed donuts is $16.50 in my town, and you can only get the original glazed hot intermittently. I’m old enough to remember when they were $2.50 a dozen and hot 24/7. Farewell, sweet donuts because these are probably the last ones I’ll ever buy from here. 😢

This morning’s twilight delivered an unusually euphonious gathering of birds to the back yard. The first grouping is for the right half of the yard, and the second is from the left half. I just love our backyard TV and the Merlin Bird ID app. #birds #birdsofbluesky #ornithology #birdwatching

To the squirrel family currently living in our attic: We appreciate you going through all of our gutters to find the acorns. Would it be too much trouble to throw the leaves down to the ground instead of neatly putting them back? kthxbai *Image credit included in ALT text.
A parody of V.C. Andrew’s iconic book cover for “Flowers in the Attic” depicting the dormer window of an attic. In the window is the face of a ground squirrel instead of a human girl. The squirrel’s paw rests on the edge of the window sill. The parody title reads “Squirrels in the Attic.”

Appropriate credit assigned to Virginia Andrews.

Cool job alert care of consultant Dr. Gabriel Morley. You can find the job posting on the GCSU Human Resources website; the link is too long for BlueSky. #museums #literature #flanneryoconnor #peacocks #historicpreservation #milledgeville #southernwriters #museumcuration
Here is a cool job managing a flock of peacocks(!) as well as several museums, including writer Flannery O’Connor’s house, Andalusia.

Georgia College & State University is seeking a visionary leader to serve as Executive Director of Historic Museums.  

GCSU is located in Milledgeville, Georgia, just an hour and a half from Atlanta (90 miles). The historic town is located on the banks of Lake Sinclair and Lake Oconee with plenty of outdoor activities.  

This role offers you the unique chance to oversee nationally significant sites including Georgia’s ‘Old Governor’s Mansion’ and the Sallie Ellis Davis House, along with Andalusia where O’Connor raised her famed peacocks.  

GCSU is looking for candidates with an interest in historic preservation, public history, and academic collaboration. 

If you love storytelling and engaging with people around cultural experiences this could be a great role.

Extremely smart of Netflix. Whatever Sesame Street costs, it's almost certainly a fraction of their usual production costs for series, there's probably some sort of tax break in there, and the goodwill Netflix just earned is a publicity multiplier. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/s...

His abusive owners (next door) moved away and abandoned him with no food or water. He has a little snaggle-puss where they hurt his mouth and jaw; that’s why his little mouth is crooked. He is very loving, playful and happy now, and we adore him.” enquiries : hooivan83@gmail.com
