Modeled a boss of a tree after him, the highest honor 😭😭😭
On 22 November 1963: C.S. Lewis dies.

Lewis was an Oxford colleague and met #Tolkien regularly with others as part of the literary group The Inklings. Lewis wrote the popular Chronicles of Narnia series.

Tolkien felt Lewis's death like "an axe-blow near the roots" of an old tree. #BookSky

The magic of friendship is in its murkiness: We come to rely on our friends in ways we might never have expected. But we don't always communicate our needs to them. In the Wonder Reader, @isabelfattal.bsky.social explores what to do when your friends disappoint you:
What to Do When Your Friends Disappoint You

Happy Friday! We made it through the week! We had full clouds this morning so here is a second photo from yesterday's sunrise looking south which has an almost painterly like feel to it. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

It's recently become clear to me how many grown-ass adults selectively read, cherry-pick quotes, lose the forest for the trees, and are unwilling to consider a whole context of a situation. Just...wow 😱

A very happy 101st birthday to Christopher #Tolkien!

Most of what we know about Middle-earth is thanks to Christopher who posthumously edited over 20 books. He sadly passed away over five years ago, but please raise a glass, and toast Christopher's service to us all. Namárië. #BookSky

“I liked it…but I have no idea what I’m looking at”: my dad has some said version of that, more than once, when he’s joined me for dance shows.

I’m quite certain S1E4 laid a lot of the groundwork and planted the seeds of what we can expect when we finally get to the Fall of Nûmenor. Keep an eye out during tonight’s #TROPRewatch!

And this episode’s #TROPReforged Prompt is: “Friends / Family”
In conjunction with #TROPRewatch welcome to TROP Rewatch: Reforged!

Details are in the pics and the Prompt Set for Season 1 will be revealed on 17 Oct (tho stay tuned for clues over the next few weeks).

We hope as many of you as possible can take part! And if you have questions, pop them 👇🏼 #TROP
