Happy tenth anniversary to this comic. I just learned that it’s still being shared constantly on Tumblr. I don’t totally understand why people like it so much, but I like it too.

Then, too, at sea—to use a homely but expressive phrase—you miss a man so much. A dozen men are shut up together in a little bark, upon the wide, wide sea, and for months and months see no forms and hear no voices but their own, and one is taken suddenly from among them, and they miss him at every turn. It is like losing a limb. There are no new faces or new scenes to fill up the gap. There is always an empty berth in the forecastle, and one man wanting when the small night watch is mustered. There is one less to take up the wheel, and one less to lay out with you upon the yard. You miss his form, and the sound of his voice, for habit had made them almost necessary to you, and each of your senses feels the loss.
—a sailor's diary entry, on losing a shipmate, ca. 1834 (from Two Years Before the Mast by Richard Henry Dana Jr.)

A clam with pearls inside.
Haha, notes are so disturbed to learn that pearls form inside the tissues and not just lying inside.
So how do y'all feel about the fact that pearls have nothing to do with sand? Bivalves deal with sand all day long, of course grains don’t get “stuck” until they have to make a pearl. That was the assumption centuries ago and just continues to be spread by the jewelry industry as a plain old lie.
The formation of a pearl is to smother and permanently seal the parasites bivalves contract from all the animal feces they process :)
(which to me is very cool and if it grosses you out you should reconsider because biologically speaking it’s the equivalent of a trapped evil spirit)
