Death found Pestilence in a hospice in Llamedos. Pestilence liked hospitals. There
was always something for him to do. Currently he was trying to remove the ‘Now Wash Your Hands’ sign over a cracked basin.
Terry Pratchett, Thief of Time (via discworldquotes)
true friendship is allowing a certain level of ghosting to go unmentioned
Yeah, it’s called respecting your friends’ privacy and understanding that it is unreasonable to expect someone to be available to you 24/7.
Today I learned that the university of Coimbra in Portugal has a great 18th-century library, the Biblioteca Joanina, that maintains a colony of bats to effectively control the population of paper-eating insects called papirófagos. These bats are less than an inch long. They roost during the day behind the bookcases and come out at night. There doesn’t seem to be any English word for papirófago, a cursory search turns up no details about what sort of insect they are, and ngl I am slightly concerned about them as a phenomenon. But I think my overarching point here is clear:
This library keeps tiny bats that look after the books.
