@Lordoftheringsu The way it gets cut off when the tomb is sealed has always haunted me. Like the audience is left with Theodred inside and can't hear her anymore.

Did you know Éowyn’s ‘Lament for Théodred’ was performed in Old English? Miranda Otto, who played Éowyn, performed the entire lament live on set, with no studio recording or playback. The scene was filmed in cold conditions, making her breath visible, her eyes naturally tearful, and in several takes she sings while actually crying, giving the scene raw emotional power. This scene appears in the Extended Edition of the film; it was cut from the theatrical release to maintain pacing and runtime. The extended version shows Théodred’s funeral outside Edoras and Éowyn performing the lament, highlighting the grief and cultural depth of Rohan. Éowyn’s “Lament for Théodred” is one of the most emotional moments in Peter Jackson’s The Two Towers. The lyrics were written by Philippa Boyens and translated into Old English by linguist David Salo, reflecting Tolkien’s inspiration from Anglo-Saxon culture for the Rohirrim.

Last night my husband says, “So today everyone at work was telling me I need to try for a boy.” I stop in my tracks. “Who?” He says two men’s names. “So. Two MEN. Told YOU. That YOU. Need to try for a boy?” Besties. I had surgery right after Roe v Wade was overturned, knowing I couldn’t survive another pregnancy. I can no longer physically get pregnant. And I am 37. And my child is about to enter high school. “I told them that even if I wanted to, you wouldn’t want to.” And I said:

@mrwtffacts I dont think her actions were acceptable. To burn someone alive is an atrocity and renders the mother a perpetrator of even greater evil than the rapist.

In 1998, a 13-year-old girl was abducted and raped at knifepoint in Alicante, Spain. The rapist, 63-year old Antonio Cosme, was sentenced to 9 years in jail. 7 years later, in 2005, the victim's mother, María del Carmen García, was waiting at a bus stop when she saw a man approaching. "How's your daughter doing?" the man asked with a smirk on his face. It was her daughter's rapist. Antonio was out on day release. Enraged by what had just happened, Maria ran to the nearest store, purchased 1.5 litres of gasoline, and walked into the bar that Antonio had just entered. She doused him head-to-toe with gasoline, lit him up, and stood back and calmly watched as her daughter's rapist burned alive in front of her eyes. Maria was sentenced to 9.5 years in jail for her act of revenge, but was released in 2018 after serving 5.5 years. Today, she lives freely in Spain after being reunited with her daughter.

@fella_niceJ @Gerashchenko_en Yeah, she's so little known the only thing that could bring her out of obscurity was donating to an army currently at war. This always does the trick with the western audience.

"The chances that Dua Lipa would help raise funds for a vehicle for our unit weren’t high... but they were never zero!" British singer Dua Lipa helped the Ukrainian First Separate Medical Battalion acquire a pickup truck. The vehicle will be used for evacuations and operational tasks in the combat zone. The funds were raised at a charity event organized by Service95, a platform founded by Dua Lipa. The money was transferred to Driving Ukraine, which retrofits vehicles for medics and military personnel. Thank you, @DUALIPA! Thank you, everyone who helped make this happen!

@Real_Ed_McCray Fair point. I guess as a kid I thought she somehow sussed the hunter out much sooner but thought that Snow White had perished in the woods anyway, and then I just forgot to re-examine that logic.

When I had my last baby a few years ago a friend dropped off a delicious homemade dinner for us (salad AND dessert included). When she dropped by she did so with HER very own slightly older newborn in tow. Oh yeah, she was also a partner at a prestigious BIG LAW law firm in DC.

A family from church has a boy in the hospital, my wife made them dinner to ease their suffering. I like being married to a woman who does stuff like this instead of typing numbers into a spreadsheet at a job she hates. Happy to work a little harder to make it happen.

@enochiiann Коли пару років тому (завдяки рсні, звісно ж), опинилася в Кишиневі, спіймала себе на думці, що знаю історію про Пушкіна, декабристів і зайця, але не знаю жодного молдовського чи румунського письменника, хоча це близькі сусіди.

Завжди дивували люди, які такі "а як же так, наші діти не знатимуть дастаєвського" Готова посперечатися, що окрім російської літератури та кайдашевої сім'ї у 10 класі ці люди майже нічого і не читали. Чомусь їх не хвилює, що їхні уявні діти не знають японську класику

I was telling someone the other day, “Sometimes I get so excited while reading that my eyes jump ahead and skip whole paragraphs, and I have to make myself go back and reread what I missed.” They looked at me and said, “No one does that.” Please tell me I’m not the only one 😭😩

The Pope removed his shoes in a mosque and people are outraged? That’s not compromise. That’s basic respect. If you enter someone’s home or sacred space, you honor their customs. We expect it in our churches. Why pretend not to understand it anywhere else?
