Sauron is going to play them all like a fiddle. Just the potential in Kemen's daddy issues alone...

Drums. Drums in the deep.

Can't wait to check this one out, the first one already was ridiculous

Honestly I remember going into the first trailer with some caution, but they showed Armenelos and I was sold. It's like Minas Tirith on steroids it looks so good.

I'll second the Claudia Grey stuff, and Catalyst too which focuses on Galen Erso and Krennic's past. Also liked Plagueis, though there's not much stakes in that it's more about how they planned everything, but it's also Plagueis and Palpatine character stuff.

Chemistry so palpable Eärien could sculpt it

More Círdan is interesting, definitely welcome. Makes sense anyway as one of the initial Three, guessing he'll have some arc of his own setting up later giving the ring away to a certain someone.

Seems if you don't put a ring on Kemen, Sauron will

I hope French ATC has gotten better at understanding "we have no toilets"

Interesting, I don't think it registered, but I'm pretty sure I did that too when I read it again earlier. I know it did with Where The Shadows Lie and the ring verse, even if it's not presented as song.

I think Bear's stuff will age as well as Shore's for me in giving sound to the legendarium

Idk why you would watch the Matrix trilogy on hobbit day, but you do you Abby...

Like many others, I watched news unfold in real time last week as Charlie Kirk was shot and killed in Utah.

Hopefully for the facial reconstruction Kemen will need by the end of the season

Hey, regarding the Portuguese language option, it's generating some text in English towards the end, regardless of the options picked in step 1. Screenshot of the relevant section, last bullet point:

The one part of the Constitution they're not gonna wipe their arse with. For now.

MGY @mgypt.bsky.social · Aug 27

But the point of that is distracting the brain from racing thoughts and boring it to sleep, if that's not the issue, might not be much.

Heard of this thing a while ago: pick an acronym or word (say, TROP), go through each letter in sequence and try to think of as many words starting with it as you can. Seems silly but I've done it when having trouble shutting down and rarely made it through the second letter.
