I'm looking forward to seeing the first Ep tonight. I only have expectations of it being visually beautiful. I'm hopeful it will craft an interesting tale with all new characters to love, and episodes to watch every Xmas for the next 20+ years!😁
#NoPressure #RingsOfPower
First Ep down.
Really really enjoyed. The teens weren't happy with some of the mullets & one character's casting (how can they turn into the older version?) also a non kingly looking king & modern haircut also bugged them- didn't bother me.
@WetaWorkshop killed it as usual❤️
My one concern was a lack of musical themes but I'm hoping @bearmccreary will develop those as we go.
Lot of work in this-& I presume the next Ep-to set up this whole world again, but 20yra later when expectations for representation demand more than a world set in white Europe.

New Year new reading thread.

Pic of kindle for media interest. And because it got me through some books last year. Image
First finish of 2022 - ‘In His Image’ by @jenniferwilkin - a really lovely little devotional on the attributes of God. Apologies to author and @crossway for my 20mo daughter’s ‘addition’ to the cover.

Short punchy chapters and some beautifully honest writing. Image
An evening treat to finish this from @ivpacademic

I love me a multi-perspective book. And this is a vital topic. 4 compelling views, one that did not convince me at all. Reasonable engagement by respondents and plenty of new things to seek out. 4/5 Image

Hey, @GoldenKnights fans. This is a hockey love story that will warm your heart, which we all need right now.

It all started at the VGK game vs. @TBLightning on February 20, 2020. A Lightning fan took this picture of the puck drop. Image
The girl in the grey beanie in the lower-left is my daughter, @kourtneycs.

Kourtney is #VegasBorn and a die-hard @GoldenKnights fan.

We were so excited for this game because @TBLightning was on a record 11 game winning streak, and we knew the boys could break it! Image
The fan who took the puck drop picture is @mikeyyyb123, a born and raised @TBLightning fan who lives in Las Vegas and works for @UNLVathletics. He attended the game with a fellow Tampa fan and sported their jerseys. Image

Sometimes forget to be grateful to be a US citizen, but got talking w @aa_fenton about how our parents immigrated to America, and it reminded me to hold on to the inspiration and courage our parents had:

RT with your story, if you have one!
My great grandfather had the monopoly of eggs in all of China and my grandmother was super rich living in a mansion when the cultural revolution happened and communism took everything away.

Communist officials took over their home and left my grandmother homeless with three young children (my dad was the #2, and a toddler). She had to leave her baby behind in Shanghai, almost left my dad behind too, because she couldn’t carry him and he was sick w a fever

1. Welcome to the 1st presentation of today’s #HCTwitterConf19 #NoPressure I'm @louoboyle & I'm asking WHY SHOULD I BOTHER? Provoking & reflecting on why #MakingConnections is increasingly crucial to all facets of our practices, thinking & futures within & beyond HE @HumCommons
@humcommons 2. #SetTheScene #WorkLife
To-do lists can seem to get ever longer & the timescales to complete even shorter. Mindful that #Wellbeing #SelfCare are always priority, why spend time engaging with communities like @HumCommons online?

Also going to thank @GeoscienceBC and @AME_BC for the funding for the heritage work this year! 1000+ likes on a geology tweet is something I never thought we'd get! Fossils rule am I right?!

Why is $CMTA a big deal for Canadians? At $1B+, it's probably the 2nd largest #cdnbiotech cash exit ever. 2ND LARGEST EVER. Let's dive into that for a bit: investor.clementiapharma.com/news-releases/…
Canada's largest biotech cash exit is vaccine maker ID Biomedical at $1.4B. I've got a story about this one but will save it for another day. Great exit (including timing) by CEO Tony Holler!
There are also a bunch of #cdnbiotech cash buyouts in the $500-$1B category including Aspreva ($900M), Cynapsus ($600M), Enobia ($500M; $1B with add-ons) and YM ($500M).
