In this abbey in France, nuns have been restoring old books for over 70 years.
The Benedictine sisters of Maumont Abbey run a full workshop and their craft is bookbinding, gilding and restoration. Centuries-old books arrive damaged, torn and crumbling, and they restore them all by hand to last another hundred years.

The way an antisemitic heckler walks out of this Jewish comedian's show when he challenges her is the whole Free Palestine movement in a nutshell.
She didn't care about defending Palestinians. She tried to make a Jew feel ashamed for existing, and when it didn't work, she just left. Good riddance.

My mom recently said her old boss from work asked for my address, because he wanted to send me something. I thought that was weird, but he was a nice guy. My mom retired ages ago, as did her old boss.
Today I got a package in the mail from him. He read in my last monthly email newsletter that I was getting into fountain pens, and he wanted to send his collection to a new enthusiast. I’m dumbfounded. What a TREASURE! There are 3 vintage watermans in here!
