If you're at a loose end today, the Govan Stones is having a free open day between 11am and 4pm. This includes an achaeological survey of the Govan Old Parish Churchyard which has a number of interesting gravestones, such as ones like this which feature memento mori, or reminders of death.

💀✨ Dans la chapelle Cornaro, à Rome, le marbre ne se contente pas d’être beau : il sait aussi être un peu dramatique.

Ces squelettes incrustés dans le sol ajoutent au décor baroque une présence à la fois élégante, macabre et étrangement vivante.
Le genre de détail qui rappelle que l’art religieux du XVIIe siècle aimait autant l’élévation spirituelle que les effets de scène.

A quotation from Alexander Smith

Your death and my death are mainly of importance to ourselves. The black plumes will be stripped off our hearses within the hour; tears will dry, hurt hearts close again, our graves grow level with the church-yard, and although we are away, the world wags on. It does not miss us; and those who are near us, when the first strangeness of vacancy wears off, will not miss us much either.

Alexander Smith (1830-1867) Scottish poet
Essay (1863), “Of Death and the Fear of Dying”, Dreamthorp

Very sad to hear about the passing of The Mac Observer's John Martellaro, and so soon after my fellow Macworld alum Chuck La Tournous. I respected John's work and shared many conversations and meals with him at Apple events. Brilliant and funny.

We lost Tim Robertson of MyMac last year. I'm sure there are others too that aren't top of mind for me at the moment, but my point is that seeing my cohort of Apple writers and pundits passing through the veil is unsettling.
