Name a non-LOTR character who could resist the One Ring Sure, at first it would be because of indecision but in the end, he'd philosophically think his way right past Sauron's bullshit.

The UK countryside is full of interdimensional portals. You just have to know where to look. I've decided to make a thread here of some of the best ones I've found on walks. 1. JRR Tolkien's Psychedelic Lime Kiln.

Just found out that in Japan you can be a ghost inspector, you get paid to stay in a house to make sure its not haunted. Sounds like my kind of job, although I'd be secretly disappointed when ghosts keep failing to show up and answer my history questions.

...guess what. HAPPY WORLD GOTH DAY, MY LOVELIES!

#phantomsfriday 'Illustrating the Posthumous Personality' - a wordy way of saying Ghost.........

Traditionally the collective nouns for ghosts are an ambush, a stare, a whispering. In the county a risk of ghosts, a procession of ghosts and an unsettling of ghosts are common as are a nagging of ghosts and a disturbance of ghosts.

THE GREAT MOON HOAX was published in a New York newspaper, August 25, 1835, it claimed the discovery of life & civilization on the Moon and featured an illustration of lunar bat people #baturday #GothicSpring

This is beyond shocking - how can this be allowed to happen? Why on earth can’t they be released on bail? They have a right to a fair trial, appropriate medical treatment, & the removal of punitive Prison Service conditions. Govt’s ban on Palestine Action is simply intolerable

I'm suspicious of those who don't aim to haunt a bookshop or a library. If the afterlife isn't the point you tackle the eternal 'to be read' pile I'm not sure we can ever call ourselves friends. If I am not allowed to read as a ghost there will be much trouble. – #DAKilroy #Books

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

I am murder on the wing. I fly from the tree and see your sin. Me and Johnny Branbeak work as one. - Old Cunning Chumbley

‘Ghost-carved’ may be my new favourite phrase 🖤 Hoping to walk some ghost-carved paths soon 👻

If you know any Arab journalist or writer such as myself please be aware that were we in Gaza right now: 1- Israel would seek to murder us and 2- the NYT would publish a piece explaining why we’re bad people Our loved ones would still be mourning for us while the NYT goes on the offensive

The problem we have about health is that it’s marketed as this personal thing & conceptualised as the result of what you do to yourself or what individually happens to you -your bad luck- But health is largely a collective expression of our environment & circumstances. This requires societal action.

The Rock’n’Roll Doctor is IN … Happy Easter!

Thought for the day.

Makes my head spin at 600km/s just trying to comprehend
