Loki is DB Cooper, solving a 50-year-old mystery.

No. No it doesn’t.

Loki was DB Cooper. That explains everything.

“Leave no trace” is a saying among backpackers and hikers to minimize their impact on the local environment when they pass through it. Pretty sure it predates Burning Man by several decades.

This is false. The Lord of the Rings is Sauron, period. Possessing The One does not make you the lord, but rather just another slave of Sauron’s.

Yes. However, that’s the point. The wise, like Gandalf, knew that only Sauron could be the true Lord of the Rings because only he could truly master the One Ring. Still, most of those who come into the possession of One Ring were seduced by its power and believed themselves to be able to become its Lords only to be

The real Lord of the Rings was inside us all along.

And still:

Yeah, I’m kind of confused why this is even a question. Sauron is the obvious answer and, “But he’s the bad guy” doesn’t really seem to call that into question to me. In the entire history of Middle Earth, he’s one of the most historically important individuals. There are books about Hitler, despite being an evil shit

Yeah, it’s intentionally meant to have multiple meanings: Specifically the One Ring’s power over the other rings, the allure that the One Ring has to all who hold it to become the “Lord of the Rings,” most obviously to Sauron himself, and, more subtly, to Frodo and Sam and how they became each, in their own way, the

Misha Green developed the TV adaptation of the book and wrote the teleplay for every episode. Misha Green is black. Jordan Peele is producing it. It boasts a cast of black actors. So yes, the TV show is unapologetically black and uplifting black artists. The fact that the novel it adapts was written by a white man is

Straight from the article:

“While cases of the Black Death cropping up in 2020 sounds alarming (and for the people contracting them, they most certainly are), bubonic plague can be treated with antibiotics if it’s detected early in its course. Modern medical intervention has dropped the mortality rate of these

Long live Guillermo Buillermo De la Cruz!

I dunno. I won’t argue with you when you say it’s nothing special and dull. But I’d say it did accomplish a few major things:

He’s a little old (though he doesn’t look it) and a little short for what fans may consider an ideal Spike, but I’ve never doubt his ability as an actor to capture the essence of the character or represent his physical skills.

IIRC, Washington had already done some incredible work in Glory and X. But no real accolades.

I apologize for the article on the front page 3 times: this is tied to the technical shenanigans going on throughout Gawker today.
