The Rings of Power was entertaining enough in the first series but the second series was a boring slog of inconsistencies and nonsense. #GameofThrones #gameofthronesmemes #gandalf #grandelf #hodor #holdthedoor #lordoftherings #lordoftheringscartoon #lordoftheringsmemes #theringsofpower #cartoon #mastoart #mastodaoine

Did you ever wonder if maybe Gandalf knew that Balrog from back in the day, back when they were both just a couple of maiar chillin' in Aman?

Kun katsoo maailman tilannetta ja Suomen hallituksen kaoottista tilaa, on pakko todeta, että on sitä parempiakin aikoja eletty. Mutta kuten #Gandalf sen sanoi, ”But that is not for [us] to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.” #MaailmanTila #politiikka #miehenelämää #LOTR

The Avs are playing the Penguins tonight. Last time this happened, I couldn't stop hearing Pittsburgh's goalie's name as "Shelob" (it's actually Silovs).
He's in net again today, so I was bracing myself. This got me thinking about a Fellowship of the Ring hockey game (obviously Gandalf is a defender, since you shall not pass). And THAT got me thinking even more.
"You must cast the Cup into the fields of Canada, where it was first forged."

did anyone want to hear a #Shakespeare speech castigating nativist cruelty against #immigration?
of course such a speech exists: bigoted malice against #immigrants is not new. the wicked have long yoked the ignorant and indecent for power
it refers to a real event: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evil_May_Day
it is called "The Strangers' Case" speech
from the play "Sir Thomas More"
here delivered by #IanMcKellen from memory
on "The Late Show With #StephenColbert"

Sunday 15 Afteryule 7490
on this day in history:
The Bridge of Khazad-dum, and fall of Gandalf, 1419. -
Julia Bazinska from Lakera (https://gandalf.lakera.ai/baseline) is up next.
AI Chatbots increase the attack surface, which give a bunch a different issues. So far it's mostly "screenshot attacks", where bad outputs of the bots are shown.
Now AI Agents increase the attack surface even more. And can do actual harm to your environment.
It's all the fault of the MCPs :) https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_Context_Protocol

Ian McKellen heeft verklapt dat in de nieuwe film The Hunt for Gollum, een spin-off van The Lord of the Rings, twee bekende personages te zien zijn. Het gaat volgens de Gandalf-acteur om zijn eigen personage en Frodo, de hoofdpersoon uit de drie films over de ring.

Tolkien forgot to mention the page boy who can turn Rohan warriors into woodland-dwelling, mountain-climbing fearless berserkers. #GamesWorkshop addresses this "oversight" with Lief, whose magic bag o' buffs makes Gandalf's staff-waving theatrics look like amateur night. https://l.d20.ninja/yn7a9v2n #GamesWorkshop #Rohan #TabletopGames #MiddleEarth #Miniatures

Toasting the Professor
As in years past, January 3rd is a special evening. Don and I joined other J.R.R. Tolkien fans from around the world in raising a glass to toast the birthday of this much loved author, J.R.R. Tolkien, at precisely 21:00 (9:00pm) local time. I have chosen a special combination of cranberry juice and soda for the occasion.
The toast is simply “The Professor”.
The ProfessorJ.R.R. Tolkien, author of the classical mythological world of The Hobbit, The Lord of The Rings, and The Silmarillion, created a collection of legends set in a fictional universe. He once said that “War deepened and sobered my imagination and stimulated my love of fantasy.” The months in the trenches of WWI made a lasting impression, which is reflected within his writings. Even so, J.R.R. Tolkien did not yield to despondency. His response was to embrace life as a remarkable adventure to be experienced abundantly and completely.
In today’s tumultuous world, Tolkien’s narratives offer an escape to fantastical realms where courage and hope prevail. His stories remind us of the strength found in friendship and the potential for personal growth. His writing reflects deep philosophical and moral questions, encouraging us to contemplate our values, choices, and the nature of power and its consequences.
The Professor“I wish it need not have happened in my time,” said Frodo.
“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

As ever, I am the Bilbo to his Gandalf 🧙♂️
Excellent to have the chance to meet with my #SpaceRocks partner, @alexandermilas at Waterloo, me on my way the the south coast & he just having returned from Buenos Aires.
And equally excellent to be able to hand him copies of the British Interplanetary Society’s Sir Arthur Clarke Award we won for Space Rocks in 2019, kindly delivered to #AstroFest2023 today by Alistair Scott.
The arrangement was kind of inevitable🖖😎🤘
