I listened to the autobook years after I had seen the movies and I felt this really added to Faramir's charicter.
Also the scouring of the Shire I understand why it was not included in the films as it as already a long movie. But in the book it really showed how much the Shire had changed since they left.

It is supposed to be a serious movie about a family movining to a new town called nilbog (goblin backwards) the costumes for the goblin trolls are bad. The dialogue is bad and the story is bad.
But I like it because it is so bad it is comical. -

Comment on Australian Senate passes legislation for Indigenous Voice to Parliament referendum, triggering a public vote within six months in ~news
zamt Link ParentThis is a good overview. This point is important. Not many people will know this and all the rhetoric saying it will be a defacto 3 chamber of parliament is just pain wrong and unhelpful.This is a good overview.
This point is important.The Voice won’t be able to pass or veto laws, they’ll be an insight into the way proposed legislation would affect indigenous and Torres Strait islander peoples, or will advise legislation which could improve an area for these groups.

The Australian government by law has to fund information on both side of the argument.The voice to parliament is an advisory body to the government of the day.
I feel it should be included in the constitution because if it was just made thought legislation it could as easily be unlegislated by another government in the future. -

Most supprising has been the slow cooker, you can just throw what ever in there and in a few hours you will have something that tastes decent. Plus I am a lazy cook and it is easy.
Both of these awansers are for cooking at home as I have not woke as a chef for quite some time. -

Motivation is something I struggle with really bad at times but medication help quite alot of that.
Example,if someone send me an email at work and it has a time limit, let's say next week. I will either do it straight away and not send it to them and wait untill the day it is due or I will not do it until that day before or day it is due.Sometimes I just can't forse myself to do things as I just can't. If this happens I try to do it tomorrow morring as I work better in the morning.

Painting can be quite relaxing and I find putting the models together is fun especially as it allows you to make unique things.I mostly play MESBG (LOTR ) because I love lotr. The game itself is mostly BALANCED and there is an active compative scene where I live.
As @Jimmydabomb said there is nothing more fun than throwing a hand full of dice and watching them 6's. -

This is the first time in about a year I have turned it on.
I have it running 24/7 for about a week, I was printing some buildings and trees for MESBG (war hammer but LOTR)
I switched back to a 4mm nozzle from 2mm and I have been using the fat dragon printing profiles
I have not had a print fail since changing the nozzle as I have only been printing Terrain.
It has been a while since I listened to it but I think the scene I am talking about it this one here
The one with the ring might be in next chapterat the forbidden pools.
