Ballet is neat and an under-appreciated art form; I try to go to the ballet a few times per year, though COVID and recent international developments limiting availability of some of the best ballet troops in the world hand put a bit of a damper on all that.

Do you professionally dance or is it a hobby?
Professionally. It’s pretty much the main thing I do in life.
Name all seven sons of Feanor (including nicknames, if any) in order
Bonus question: which one was the father of Celebrimbor?
What?
Maedhros, Maglor, Celegorm the Fair, Caranthir the Dark, Curufin the Clever, Amrod and Amras. Curufin was Celebrimbor’s father.
Maedhros: The actually smart guy | Died after getting silmaril Maglor: The singer dude who is still alive | Didn't officially die Celegorm: Stalker, dog dude | Died second kinslaying Caranthir: Stalker, taxed dwarves | Died second kinslaying Curufin: Stalker and abandoner of children | Died second kinslaying Amrod/Amras: Died on the boat Amras/Amrod: Hunter dude | Died third kinslaying

Wow! Thanks. I thought Amrod and Amras were the first to die, but I guess I was wrong.

One of them died in the burning of the boats (at least in certain versions of the story) because Fearnor's wife wanted to have at least one of her sons stay. Fearnor took them all, so she cursed them that one would not step foot on middle earth. Thus, Amrod/Amras were burnt at the boats, while Amras/Amrod survived. I don't think the story said which one died and which one survived

Today I learned they are apparently making a Gollum video game where you play as the titular character shortly before the main story of the books begin. It will be a mix of stealth and avoidance gameplay, since your character will not be strong enough to take on even the weakest of orcs directly. There will also be a BioWare-like choice mechanic, with scenes where you decide between Gollum and Sméagol options. Early reviews from demos are… not great. Linear gameplay, bad level design, and mediocre gameplay that’s less puzzle and more following rails.
Like the totality of non-Lego LotR video games, I expect this will be another interesting premise ruined by bad execution.
Review from demo.
I’m not a video game guy so no comment.

Right… LotR. Someone think of a conversation topic, that’s a command from your Valar (me).

Elves and the patriarchy lol
To be honest, Feanor does sometimes remind me of a certain right wing president in the USA
