If a recent "The Rings of Power" Season 2 scoop is true, we'll finally see Celeborn on the show. But how will Galadriel's missing husband factor into the story?

Better farming techniques across the world could lead to storage of 31 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide a year, data shows. That amount is not far off the 32 gigatonnes gap between current planned emissions reduction globally per year and the amount of carbon that must be cut by 2030 to stay within 1.5C.
Ooh, fun fact! Did you know the It Ain't Much But It's Honest Work meme guy was a proponent of no till farming and was a leader in the movement advocating for and utilizing the farming practices suggested in this article?
Dave Brandt passed away in May this year, but his honest work? It meant so much.
I think that's a little bit more difficult since most people want to trade. Sometimes someone will put their collection on google drive and share via links on tumblr or twitter, but those occasions are few and far in between.
I have never understood the concept of Twitter and such, is it basically like Live Journal with a text limit ? How do the interactions even work ? Just people saying something unprompted and then people just talk?
I'm upvoting you purely for describing Twitter as "Live Journal with a text limit". That is exactly what it is and with infinitely less privacy or conversational value.
Oh, for that use case then Twitter is a bit different. Information on Twitter moves fast and you can get quick, bite-sized updates on a company or event (via tags) much quicker than most sites. The ease of sharing information made it very popular for things like announcing updates on website/app down times or catching up on election news for example.
I found HCMC very walkable and there were so many trees and parks that even the heat was bearable.
Completely agreed about the War Remnants Museum, it moved me to tears within minutes. I'm from Malaysia, one of the places where Agent Orange was first trialed before it was put to use as a weapon, so that particular exhibition hall was so personal since a family friend was born disabled because of it.
On a lighter note, there was a bánh mì chảo place within a 15 minutes walk from the War Remnants Museum that was so good I am still dreaming about it to this day.
Hi! I wanted to start to hoard my favorite tracks in the best possible quality. A lot of stuff is available through Deezer or Tidal i know, but what sources are you guys using when FLACs for particular albums or songs cannot be found on Deezer or Tidal? I wanted to get the Rock n Roll Train song from ACDC in FLAC, but Tidal...
I’ve seen lists of songs with deep lyrics, songs that are upbeat but depressing at the same time, songs not on the radio, and other things like that… But I have never seen a list of songs that are just super fun to sing....

@Biotic Great choices! I'm also quite curious to find out what they've been up to. Bonus points if we get to meet Celebrian too.
And I agree with you on hoping The Stranger is actually a Blue Wizard, but being ok if he's Gandalf. Adaptations make changes to suit the medium and so far I quite like what I've seen.
Seeing as they've compressed the timeline, it's very likely but I guess we'll find out in due time. Celebrian was born early in the Second Age and we seem to be in late Second Age now. She and Elrond marry at the beginning of the Third Age, so unless they want us to see Elrond's future bride grow up on screen... Well, let's hope Celeborn went missing in a Second Age battle.
A long long time ago, when I was nothing but a teenage band dropout with a bad bass clarinet habit, I ended up on a school trip to Sacramento to debate at the state level. The debates were held at the Hyatt, where we also stayed for the night....

Honestly, a part of me thinks its about money. SGD converts over better to USD and she wouldn't have to drop ticket prices too low for the market. I don't blame her though, there's no business like show business. The other factors and annoying red tape certainly would incentivize any international artist to pick Singapore.
@Biotic I don't remember where I saw the news, but I think they're going to take advantage of his pre-LOTR, shapeshifting abilities. Which has me incredibly excited because I want to see their take on the nature of maia.
