Glovewatch - the lost gloves of Seething
@glovewatch.bsky.social
Take a photo of any lost single glove you see (wherever you are) from 1st Dec 2025 until Jan 31 2026. No single use disposable gloves please. Can we set a new world record this season. More idiocy from @lordscroley.bsky.social

1562 gloves on day 54. In the year 1562 a severe hailstorm caused serious damage in the German town of Wiesensteig, leading to the demand that the Mayor arrest several women on charges of practicing witchcraft with six executed. There are people and politicians today who could believe this

1506 lost gloves on Day 52. In the year Charles II, the six-year-old son of King Philip of Castile, inherited his father’s title of Duke of Burgundy and was proclaimed “Lord of the Netherlands”. Funny to think that people used to just inherit their power … #glovewatch

Day 48 and our total is 1371. It’s an average of 28.5 which would bring our Season total to 1771. This would be the fourth best lost glove haul falling behind the 23-24, 22-23 and 18-19 which was obviously pre Cyprus Ruling #Glovewatch

Day 47 and we have reached 1347 lost gloves. In the year 1347 Charles University in Prague was founded by a bull issued by Pope Clement VI. Sometimes I wonder if we have limited the opportunities for cattle to study since then. #glovewatch #singleglove #lostglove #lonelyglove

Day 45 and a round 1300 lost gloves spotted by you wonderful glove detectives. The year 1300 was the last of the 12th century and Pope Boniface VIII began the practice of Roman pontiffs declaring a Jubilee or “Holy Year” to be observed every 100 years. #glovewatch #singleglove
