On 2 September 1973 J.R.R. #Tolkien died aged 81. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings is the best-selling book of the 20th Century, and is joined by seminal works The Hobbit and The Silmarillion. He may have died 51 years ago but his influence and legacy lives on in us all. Namárië.

Reading TolkienSince1990 (Marvin in Scotland)

Damn this didn't age well 😂

After an interesting discussion tonight I would like to apologise to whoever. I have been pissed of the state about Rings of Power and at times that has made me to snarky and prone to reflex action. I will try to do better and whilst maintaining my honest views on the show. 🧝‍♂️

what if instead of being a "union" of countries, the united kingdom was 4 people, sharing a house? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇯🇪 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Alex Salmond was one of the great politicians of his age. His impact, not only on Scottish politics, but those of the entire United Kingdom, cannot be overstated. And he was my friend. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

A message on behalf of myself, and the rest of the family 💙

Dear Alex, Rest in peace The debt is unpayable Scotland forever

Alex Salmond's enemies in the SNP should fear what will happen now: my column in The Herald heraldscotland.com/politics/viewp…

Alex took Scotland to the door of an empowered self determined nation - it’s our job to realise the independence dream that he inspired by giving the people of Scotland the key in 2026.

“I wasn’t happy with 'Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom' (1984) at all. It was too dark, too subterranean, & much too horrific. I thought it out-poltered 'Poltergeist' (1982). There’s not an ounce of my own personal feeling in Temple of Doom.” --- Steven Spielberg

2024 will go down as the year when Hollywood lost its last shred of cultural influence.

Happy 70th birthday, Uncle Alex. Not the celebration we had planned. Life is not the same without you 💔 Forever missed Never ever forgotten

From #Gaza, the cries of parents rise to heaven ever more intensely as they clutch the lifeless bodies of their children, searching for food and shelter from bombs. I renew my appeal to leaders: cease fire, release all hostages, and fully respect international humanitarian law!

Pope Leo is: - upholding traditional Catholic doctrine - pro life - allowing the TLM in the Vatican - anti LGBTQ - anti Israel - anti socialist - anti communist - anti capitalist What more could you want from a pope?

Is there ever an episode of this show now without a drag queen on it? The BBC has a serious fetish. #theweakestlink
