I mean the Valar tried to rehabilitate Morgoth but banished him beyond the doors of night in the end anyway. I also don't think that's what happened to Saruman and Sauron. Their souls were diminished and left formless forever, but not banished like Morgoth. Pretty sure the only being completely removed from Arda until the breaking was Morgoth.

The Devils Rejects.

House of 1000 Corpses and 3 From Hell are alright, but Devils Rejects is my favorite. I can't hear Midnight Rider or Freebird without thinking about this movie.

Do we do that here? Can we not? I thought we agreed not to.

Personally I don't like comparing Elon to Elmo, Elmo is a good person. I get that it infantilizes Elon, but in my mind there is nothing negative about Elmo, and it grinds my gears when people call that human waste by the name of such a sweet caring individual.

Vance was a never Trumper wasn't he? I'd be down for a public murder-suicide for an October Surprise.

I thought the morning constitutional was taking a shit.

I've worked in a lot of grocery stores in multiple states for over a decade and this has never been true in my experience. Staff puts their hand on it, if its cold it goes back in the cooler, if it's warm it gets tossed. It is not a definite garbage item despite the lingering urban myth. If it is true its a store policy at one company, and it must be regional because no major national chain does this.

Pretty sure Oregon did something similar but like...what are these people going to do without commissary? Making it not involuntary doesn't really mean prisoners aren't forced to do it so they can have things like shower sandals so they don't get trench foot. Every con is still choosing to work for a pittance because they need it to survive in prison. But it's OK we no longer legally allow slavery.

The Tom Bombadil stories were separate from Middle Earth when Tolkien wrote them. Tom is just a cameo from Tolkiens other works. He's a minor character put there because Tolkien liked him and thought he fit. For the sake of the story any elf could have done, Tolkien could have wrote in any major character or made up a new minor one. He chose Bombadil because he didn't have a use anymore in his own, older stories and Tolkien wanted him to live on happily ever after in Middle Earth. Tom was first, those stories came first, he is Eldest, conceived before the first acorn of Middle Earth, before the trees and lamps. He lived on past the death of his own universe and settled in Middle Earth. That's why is not affected by the laws of Middle Earth, his ways are older and stranger. Goldberry is a Maiar who knows all this.
