“Last year, two mercurial billionaires formed a partnership and vowed to drive the country in a new direction. Donald Trump had the political power. Elon Musk had the money and social media might. But on Thursday, their union dissolved in remarkably public and rapid fashion, with the two men attacking each other over matters both significant and petty.” — New York Times
If you’ve kept up with the Middle-earth media in the last few days, you’ve likely heard about the feud between me, Saruman the White, and the Dark Lord Sauron. You may have heard that Sauron rescinded my generous offer to supply Mordor with Uruk-hai reinforcements in exchange for $auronCoin. And that, in retaliation, I brought up his longstanding ties to Melkor and his dark deeds on the Island of Númenor. That is all true.
But please allow me to set the record straight. Yes, I was once in allegiance with the Dark Lord Sauron. But that alliance has ended. To tell you the truth, I always hated the guy.

The first movie ever made was released in 1887. That movie is called Air Bud, and it is about a dog who is good at passing a three-dimensional sphere through a two-dimensional hoop, which is illegal. When I found out how many movies there are, I got worried that watching so many different dogs playing spherehoop would get tedious, but it turns out that movies can be about different things too. Some movies are called “films,” which happens if the movie is too long, is very boring, or was directed by someone who married their own adopted daughter. A director is someone who stands nearby with their arms crossed while the movie is being filmed. They are called “directors” because they sit in things called “directors’ chairs.” One of the best parts about movies is that there are so many different kinds, such as drama, horror, and porn. Drama is what a movie is called if a character in it screams, “WILSON!” The best drama movie is called The Terminator, and it is about computers and humans being friends and playing together. Horror is when a character screams anything other than “WILSON!” Porn is when a movie is about Christmas. | ||
