The world is changing. Who now has the strength to stand against armies of Isengard and Mordor? To stand against the might of Sauron and Saruman and the union of the two towers. Together, my lord Sauron, we shall rule this middle-earth. The old world will burn in the fires of industry. The forests will fall. A new order will rise. We will drive the machine of war with the sword and the spear and the iron fist of the orc.
The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002) Dir. Peter Jackson DP Andrew Lesnie
“The outfit Shuri is wearing in this scene features an Adinkra symbol (cultural visual symbols from the Asante/Ghana region of Africa) on it. This Adinkra symbol means ‘purpose,’ and she certainly has a purpose in Wakanda.”

I LOVE DANE HART!!!! She always does amazing readings and her energy is just so pure and light. There is nothing in this reading that I haven’t already seen when I do PH and FD spreads so I know she’s on the money with this one.
In the Golden Age, Steve Trevor gave Diana the nickname, “Angel”, because having been delirious from his injuries, Themyscira seemed heaven-like with her being the “angel” that saved him. “Angel On The Wing” is also the title of track #3 on Wonder Woman’s Original Motion Picture Soundtrack.
I’m kind of wondering if this article is prepping for a bigger article this weekend. Looks purely like an article for background information that can be referenced later…
No he wouldn’t. The royal family is about blood. Perhaps when he married they could grant him a title, maybe, but he wouldn’t be given anything. That’s just not how it works. The royal family have a lot of titles because they have a lot of people but they’re actually very strict about who can get what.
Norway doesn’t have titles anymore beyond the immediate royal family. Nobility titles were done away with through legislation in the 19th century.
Tom Cruise is not scared of heights. And he can fly helicopters? (Not only can he fly them, he does it well enough to perform stunts.) In this rough 30-minute reel of behind-the-scenes footage from the filming of Mission Impossible: Fallout, you get to see how many of the movie’s best stunts are done. Note: you’ll need to skip around a bit…there’s a lot of less exciting bits in there too. But don’t miss the car/bike stuff at the beginning, Cruise flying/hanging from the chopper, and, holy shit, the skydive choreography at the end, where the actors and camera folks dance intricately in a military cargo plane with the back hatch open before just jumping out of it, Cruise acting all the way.
You can tell when watching the film that you’re seeing practical effects. Special effects are getting really really good, but movies like this with real people driving real vehicles…they just feel different. Special effects sometimes break the fourth wall (and not in a good way); if it looks fake, your brain says “that’s fake”, and then you’re just a little less invested in what’s going on in the story.
MM can say she’s from LA but so are 5+million other regular joes. And Hollywood is the seediest place I’ve ever visited in my life. The BLVD with the walk of fame is wretched. The studios are are located behind gates in the valley. There is no “actual” Hollywood. Celebs hang out on Sunset or in Malibu & I can’t see MM ever being able to afford any places there or having the clout to get in anywhere that wasn’t a place for wannabes or hangers on. She is LA. Generic. Basic. Bitch. They are a 2/3
3/3 They are a dime a dozen there. Its not the impressive place you think it is, folks.
Tell me about it. I rented a room in Venice Beach in the nineties. Glamour had nothing to do with it, although I hear it’s super pricey now.
Four Swedish police officers’ New York vacation was interrupted when a fight broke out on the subway. The train operator called for support, and — being cops and all — they dutifully stepped in to help until local authorities arrived.
The visiting cops had to subdue the two men involved in the fight, which no doubt takes skill to do safely. But it’s how they did their job after they gained control that really impressed people.
Say it louder for those in the back to hear. Calmly and unarmed.
Cops who help people, calmly disable a situation and restore public order rather than flex their authority, escalate the situation leading to a shit storm? Interesting….
There is no shame in being hungry for another person. There is no shame in wanting very much to share your life with somebody.
