On this day in 1983, Fraggle Rock debuted.
Created by Jim Henson, it was co-produced by CBC and filmed at their Toronto studios.
The cast, puppeteers, writers and crew were pretty much all Canadian too!
Let's learn more about this wonderful show :)

🧵1/18
This photo features a group of colorful, whimsical puppet characters from the classic children's show "Fraggle Rock." The scene is set in a cave-like environment, with the characters gathered together in a lively and cheerful manner. Here are some details about the characters: Red Fraggle (top left, in red) is holding a yellow fruit and appears to be excited. Gobo Fraggle (center, with a guitar) is playing a guitar, looking quite animated. Wembley Fraggle (bottom left, yellow with green clothing) is sitting on a rock, looking happy. Mokey Fraggle (center, pink with long hair) is standing with her hands together, appearing thoughtful. Boober Fraggle (center, blue with a hat) is standing with one arm raised. Uncle Traveling Matt (right, with a white beard and hat) is among the group, engaging with others.

Another barn-burner from @bhensonweather.bsky.social, this time on the risk of a collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation. Part two of a two-part series. yaleclimateconnections.org/2024/12/how-...
How much should you worry about a collapse of the Atlantic conveyor belt? » Yale Climate Connections
Scientists warned recently that the risk "has so far been greatly underestimated."

Welcome @joshuar.bsky.social and @climatecentreuk.bsky.social!
Great to see you over here.

For new arrivals it’s trad (thanks to @garius.bsky.social) to post #ProofOfCat - ideally of your cat or a cat you know. (Apparently other furry animals could be acceptable as well.)

Also this is useful 👇🏽
TIPS FOR MOVING FROM XITTER TO BLUESKY Before you start following people, fill out your profile! Bio, PFP, banner, and post at least 5 to 10 things. Just reuse your top 10 banger tweets— recycling is encouraged! This way, when people see you followed them and they check your profile, they'll know what you are about and might follow back. Turn off NSFW filters in Moderation > Content Filtering (°37 Find your friends using a tool like skeet.labnotes.org or Sky Follower Bridge. Not perfect, but they'll find the majority of the people you were following. Turn on "show posts from my feeds" in Settings > Home Feed Preferences. This will add random posts from them to your main feed, but tweaked to your liking, no ads and BS. I recommend the Catch Up feed (kinda like a "best of"). Tweak Reply Filters to something that works for you, also at Settings > Home Feed Preferences. This shows replies from people you follow to anyone else on your main feed.
