Re: The Tolkien Translation Game!
It was shortened, but I wouldn't say drastically.
ETA: by word count it is 2/3 as long as the original.

Re: Trump Indicted by Manhattan District Attorney
Self-aggrandizing too. That one of his books briefly made the New York Time best-seller list is a fact he never gets tired of mentioning. (But despite all that, I noticed during the Mueller investigation that he and Marcy Wheeler via different paths often ended up at the same place.) I've largely s...

Re: Trump Indicted by Manhattan District Attorney
While I also share that opinion, I find so much that Seth Abramson says to be sensationalized nonsense that I have largely given up on seeking out the occasional wheat amongst the sea of chaff.

Roger Stone posted this about Trump's rally in Wildwood, NJ. https://twitter.com/RogerJStoneJr/status/1789706301578022980 The problem is that this image was taken on December 31, 1994 at the Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil at a concert by Rod Stewart in what is known as the world's larges...

Re: War between Hamas and Israel
An even better comparison is the Yemeni "civil war." These are the casualty figures I was able to pull off Wikipedia, which are far from complete (as they only are up to 2020-21) but show a pretty compelling picture: 377,000+ people killed overall (150,000+ from violence) (2014–2021) (UN)[...

Re: 2020 Election: Predictions, Results and Reactions
The oral argument for Steve Bannon's appeal of his conviction for contempt of Congress is scheduled for 11/9 and we now know that the panel will consist of two Obama appointees (Judges Pillard and Garcia) and one very conservative Trump appointee (Judge Walker). Both sides only have 10 minutes allo...

Re: Revisiting Rings
I seem to remember something about the rights reverting if they don't keep them active. My understanding (which I have not researched fully) is that this is a whole new licensing agreement that WB/NL entered into with the new rights-holder, Embracer, after the latter purchased the rights from Saul ...

Re: Trump Indicted by Manhattan District Attorney
Just based on following the reports by Tyler McBrien, Anna Bower and others about today's testimony, I don't think that the cross-examination of Stormy Daniels was as successful as people like Ben Wittes thought it would be. And the re-cross was a downright disaster for them. https://twitter.com/Ann...
