@thetimkins Is it the classic not understanding the question to make genuine discourse impossible?

Do not forget, without Merry, Éowyn would not have been able to kill the Witch-king.
Merry had one of the blades forged by the Dúnedain of Arnor, specifically the people of the kingdom of Cardolan during their war agains the Witch-king of Angmar. These blades were forged with enchantments and intent to defeat the servants of Angmar.
When Merry stabbed the Witch-king behind the knee, the enchantments protecting the Witch-king were broken.
The magical bond holding together his unseen form was disrupted, leaving him vulnerable to Éowyn’s killing blow.
Tolkien even wrote “…no other blade, not though mightier hands had wielded it, would have dealt that foe a wound so bitter…”
The Witch-king was not defeated by a man but by a hobbit and a woman.

The movie all the rightoids rave about has one of the wokest moments ever put on film, and would be ripped to shreds if released today.

@FromTheDepths88 You do know woke is a laughable contortion of values created by those you insult, don't you?
Of course you fucking don't.

Imagine Moroccans chasing British Police in Britain & rioting on the streets of London because their football team lost… I expect Starmer to address the nation later with an update of mass arrests, immediate jail time, no bail & the advice to plead guilty! DEPORT!

@ArthurNewman_7 @PaulEmbery Do they always pretend not to understand, Arthur?
English
@PaulEmbery Do you think gay people are inferior, Paul? Just because you think something doesn’t mean it isn’t extremist.

Yes, she did believe that. And the truth is that, until about 12 years ago, it was also the general view of most people in society (and still happens to be the view of the established church in this country today). Disagree with it, by all means. But to present it as some kind of extremist opinion is plainly ridiculous.

Let’s not forget Ann Widdecombe’s deeply bigoted view that heterosexual marriage was the “preferred model” of society and that gay lifestyles were “inferior”.

You walk your child into school the first day and this is what you learn about his or her teacher. And yes, this is real. I clipped it from an account. And yes, the haters gonna hate. But is this the mentality we want for our teachers? And I’m not referring to her Autism. I couldn’t care less about that.

I’m the establishment! I never knew all it took was saying you don’t find a tit in a tin amusing.
You wait til I tell the folks back home I’m the establishment now. And they said my 4 O levels counted for nothing!

@Telegraph @OldRoberts953 God, Roberts showing just how much the establishment has really been massively triggered by Count Binface. Makes Farage’s daft stunt almost worthwhile.

Things just get more and more baroquely worse don’t they. And in such predictable ways.
Literally before most other things and any policy really at all, incoming PM
announces: ‘we’ve been too soft on the Jews, it was wrong of us, and we will make amends’. And we all know this is the one policy promise we can count on happening to the letter, and then some 🤮 🤢

@liamtuffs1 Wait wait wait - Weren’t you the guy that was in another police officers face? Don’t try and speak up for @metpoliceuk when you were harassing them.

Just read a disappointed review of this - the reviewer only gave it three stars, because: "Without any warning that I could see, it turns out to be a children’s book. Okay if I were decades younger."
Oh, if *only* there had been some clue on the cover....

@OldRoberts953 @CoopieBastards You are actually fucking mental aren't you

I’ll say it again in case anyone missed it
They just want to kill you and take your stuff.
I’ll add to that that they’ll celebrate your death and say vile things about you.

Sad to hear that London is having to board up its shops and evacuate people in anticipation of Norwegian migrants smashing the place up and attacking police in the wake of the World Cup match. :/

The problem with arguing Christian morality is that you’ll see basic human behavior and Christians pretend they invented it

@LostLoreScholar @TheBrassDrake Missed it! Possibly not a shame, though, as my answer wouldn't fit with what I imagine is normal-- my not having a regular game for a decade is not because I don't want one

If you engage with TTRPG or Dungeons and Dragons content online, how often do you actually play?
A good healthy amount play at least once a week.
Surprisingly 21% of respondents do not play or no longer play.
Cheers to @TheBrassDrake for putting this to his audience too.

🚨 WOMAN WAS RESCUING SEAGULL, NOT STEALING IT A video I shared yesterday of a woman catching a seagull in a blanket, was Not what it looked like, the woman in question was actually concerned for the small seagull after it has fell off the roof previously, as you can see in this video that the woman in question shares with the seagull society on Facebook, she asked locals to help her it on to a flat roof so it could be back with its mother Like many people yesterday I saw the video shared round of her catching it and jumped to conclusions, for that I apologize and hold my hands up I was quick to judge

@patrickkmaguire @theipaper You can’t change the ILR rules for people already in the country but you can change it for people who come here from now on, the rest of it is the opposite of what reform are saying that is making them popular, that is really dumb
