When books that shaped your life are given a chance to come to life on the screen, the joy is immense. WOT was a gift to me & others who have treasured the story all these years & to have it taken away so needlessly rips away a little part of my soul! 😫

Sen. Tim Kaine tells federal employees to ignore Trump’s offer to quit with pay for months. “Don’t be fooled. He’s tricked hundreds of people with that offer. If you accept that offer and resign he’ll stiff you just like he stiffed the contractors. He doesn’t have any authority to do this.”

In case you were ever wondering how Tolkien felt about Hitler, he called him a “vulgar and ignorant little cad” and a “ruddy little ignoramus.”

What happened to backing the Blue?
Far right extremists have become the party of lawlessness and disorder.

What a dark day to be an American.
I have to imagine #WoTSkies is filled with people who are equally disturbed by what’s happened, what comes next…
✨ Remember Rand’s #TarmonGaidon speech: WE are the ones who still fight.
✨ Hold onto Egwene’s courage and words: “Am I not allowed to be a hero, too?”
