1810 Robert Schumann, German pianist/composer/music critic

ketchcraft ― the hangman's craft [after Jack Ketch, an infamous London executioner].
QotD:
“The one serious conviction that a man should have is that nothing is to be taken too seriously.” ― Nicholas Murray Butler
Personal Commentary/Observation
So one of the books on my "Comfort Reads" list, which are books I read and reread and reread over and over when I'm stressed, is A Psalm For The Wild-Built by Becky Chambers. By strange coincidence today - the mini Echo Show in my office popped up and suggested that I might try Sleep Sounds - "Cricket Sounds" today. How did it know about the crickets?
