Kenyan entomologist/evolutionary biologist Dr. Dino Martins‘ new book about the hidden world of parasites is occasionally super-disgusting & consistently utterly fascinating. His delight in & enthusiasm for his subject is as infectious as many of his subjects. Also, people: Wash👏 Your👏 Hands👏 💡📚💙

A photograph of the North American hardcover edition of Dr. Dino Martins’ book Hidden Creatures: Luscious Leeches, Bashful Botflies, and the Wondrous, History-Shaping World of Parasites. It was the beautiful-yet-revolting illustration of a leech on the cover that made me pick up this book in the first place, wondering what on earth would make anyone want to read it. So I read the first few sentences and then couldn’t stop. Reading this book was like sitting on a rock in one of Dr. Martin’s wilderness classrooms, enthralled and appalled in equal measure by the astonishing lifeforms he winkles out from their hosts and hidey-holes and discusses with such zest and vigour. His compassion, intelligence, and humanity combined with his excitement about his subject make it impossible to look away. I have to say, though, I felt itchy through the whole thing.

Highly recommended. Going off to wash my hands again …

Every four years, the World Cup reminds me exactly where I was in life. From watching Brazil win as a child to attending matches in Germany & Brazil, football became the backdrop to some of my biggest life moments.

Does anyone know of a good #tvshowtracker app? The TV Time APP is shutting down. I am saddened that this amazing app and its community is coming to an end. I’ve logged hundreds of shows for the past decade. Where will I go now? Where will I meet with Malumiere Huxtable ever again?
