Assassins were never employed. They were engaged, or retained or commissioned, but never employed. Only servants were employed. (Hogfather) #TerryPratchett #quotes #quote #bot

In honour of #TerryPratchett day, from the book I’m currently reading… ‘It couldn’t be worse if it was raining arseholes.’ Monstrous Regiment.

Happy birthday Sir Terry Pratchett. The more the world gets more cruel and unfair, the more I miss him. Plus the Vimes boots theory remains the greatest piece of economics ever written. #TerryPratchett #Books

I recently posted this, but since it is #TerryPratchett Day, I'm reposting. If my text editor app @novelwriter@fosstodon.org crashes (Offler forbid), it will use one of the following Discworld error messages as the window title of the error dialog. 😁 🧙‍♀️

Apparently 28th April is Terry Pratchett Day, being his birthday an' all. A person I never met, yet I still mourn his passing, for his works brought joy and comfort to myself and millions of others. Not to mention, as a teenager, a foundational education in society, politics, justice, and puns. #TerryPratchettDay #GNUTerryPratchett #TerryPratchett

Discworld Quote, from Feet of Clay “‘Do you think there’s something a bit … odd about Littlebottom?’ ‘Seems like a perfectly ordinary female to me,’ said Angua. ‘Female? He told you he was female?’ ‘She,’ Angua corrected. ‘This is Ankh-Morpork, you know. We’ve got extra pronouns here.’” #terrypratchett #discworld

It's Get Out Your Guitar Day! Who plays the guitar in Soul Music and what does his name mean? #Discworld #DiscworldConvention #TerryPratchett #SoulMusic #Guitar #InternationalDay

Greebo could, in fact, commit sexual harassment simply by sitting very quietly in the next room. (Maskerade) #TerryPratchett #quotes #quote #bot

This #introduction vol.2 has been created 100% without the influence of artificial intelligence... nor has intelligence had any significant influence. I'm actually ****, but on the internet I'm known as Nettlephagus, insofar as I'm known at all. There is a story behind the name, which I will tell sometime if I happen to remember it and feel like it at that moment. I am originally from Northern Ostrobothnia, but I have lived most of my life in Lapland. My family is small but extensive, even though there are many of us. My immediate circle includes my wife and one biological child, then there is a bunch of stolen children... when I say children, I mean young adults. In addition, I have very warm and close but loving relationships with my siblings and several cousins and adopted siblings around the world. I work as a bonedener, org as officially called, gardener at a cemetery. Before that, I worked with special needs children, in an office, in construction, and as an artist. I have studied media, healthcare and social work, and ceramics. Graduated only media and ceramics. I am disturbed in the head, with years of untreated ADHD, bipolar disorder, an unspecified personality disorder, and a multidisciplinary verbal communication disorder, but worst of all, I am a green left-wing feminist. I am a threat to society with my firm belief in equality, nature conservation, the fight against capitalism, and the superiority of colorful sweaters. I have difficulty recognizing other people's emotions and showing my own, but I have learned to put them into words. #TerryPratchett's #Discworld is my greatest guide in life, and for my final project at ceramics school, I made a large Discworld sculpture, which came to the attention of Pratchett's estate, and I received written permission to sell my work as a Discworld piece. The sculpture is still waiting for a home because it doesn't fit in mine. I live in a under renovation house with my wife, Utu The Haskiainen (Alaskan husky), Tuikku The Royal Eunuch (breed I don't know in english), A'tuin and Moria (turtles), and Legba, Zelda, Bunty, Jessup, Cinerella, and Habanero (chickens). In addition to Pratchett, I read a lot anyway, now that I am able to do so again after moving to the countryside, despite my reading disability. I am completely addicted to stories. I consume a huge amount of books, audiobooks, movies, and TV series, and I also play video games, mainly with my brother and children. I am the one people call when they are looking for an actor, movie, TV series, book, or director. I like my job, my workplace, and my coworkers, and I'm still not comfortable with the fact that I work for the church. I've burned myself out a few times, which is why I've decided to simplify my life. I know enough about information technology
