A medieval carving from Ely Cathedral which was probably from a bench end. The carving is currently on display at Ely Museum. 📸 My own. #Woodensday #ElyMuseum #ElyCathedral

Someone here said Baptism of Fire is an excellent book despite not having many standout moments, which I agree with. Geralt and friends on the road.

Neolithic entrance to one of the covered passageways at Skara Brae on Orkney. Occupied from around 3100 to 2500 BC, the prehistoric settlement is one of the best preserved in the British Isles. 📸 My own. #AdoorableThursday #SkaraBrae #Prehistory #Orkney

John Milton coined ‘sensuous’ so that he wouldn't have to use ‘sensual.’
‘Sensual’ usually describes gratification of the senses or physical appetites as an end in itself.
‘Sensuous,’ on the other hand, usually implies pleasing of the senses by art or similar means.

What a lore breakdown!
Not quite random observations about #TheRingsOfPower
Should the Elves even be in Middle-earth?
This question lingers in the background for most of Season 1, but it’s also strongly connected to the creative collaboration at the heart of Season 2.
A very long thread 🧵(100+)
