I recognized it from my research into islands as far away from all the bullshit of the modern world as possible. I would love to visit.

Red, Red Wine in my ass.

People hate to read. I write emails that try to cover all bases, because I can’t assume grown adults with advanced degrees know what’s going on. Sadly, they’ll not only not read it, but ask me to write less. Cutting the word count only leads to more confusion.

I’m so done with humanity sometimes.

God Almighty, these people are mentally ill. Having sex with women is to gay. We’re going to wrap around to a misogynistic homosexual society, apparently.

What the actual fuck?

Some people choose to have guns. They’re not cheap, and not everyone over here is willing to kill someone else.

If we start burning cars, we likely start getting shot. Remember this is the USA we’re talking about here. Maybe it needs to come to that, but don’t judge people for trying to avoid the kind of crackdown Trump would likely enact given any excuse.

As a geek, I want to refer to this as transferring life support to main engines.

I knew it wasn’t real, but the idea is fantastic. Thanks for the suggestions!

I need this in my life. Can someone make this happen?

Smeagol had the ring for nearly 500 years and never completely succumbed to its power like the ring-wraiths did. While he was corrupted, he still had a spark of himself under all those centuries of madness. I believe Gandalf specifically points this out somewhere. Something about the nature of hobbits enabled them to resist the ring better than any other race, even the high elves that had lived on Valinor–heck, even Gandalf, a Maia, feared to take up the ring. The only person who seemed able to bear it with no corruption was Tom Bombadil in the books.

Just read the first section of The Will to Change. As a man, it’s fascinating and enlightening to see a feminist deal with men and masculinity rather than dismiss them.

No worries. Now I know it exists…maybe I can find a translation or translate it myself with Google if I can get a copy at all 🤣

I can’t find an English edition, unfortunately for me.

Yeah, I found the same books, and they don’t seem like the right one.
