Mine just “forgets” that i have songs downloaded over time until i go online, so my playlist will effectively gradually shrink. And then as soon as i go online they’re instantly available and downloaded again…

It’s not about emotions or morals though, it’s about how he’s treated. He’s obviously gonna have more privilege than any human.

He’s literally the king of the gods, don’t think how things are for humans has any impact on his behaviour.

Cave Johnson is that you?

And 12 and 16 years ago. Unfortunately they might break it for real this time.

He’s offering to take part in the bread and circuses, as a friend, implying that he’s suffering with bilbo

I mean no, they arose from their hiding in the depths of Angmar is definitely how I’d interpret that

I will not stand for this Pippin slander!

He resisted the will of Sauron himself for a bit, and even when hurt by him he told him a little as possible. Pippin very intentionally told Sauron nothing of their quest or of Frodo and Sam.

He’s a fool, but a fairly intelligent, strong-willed and kind fool.

Good meme though.

The cry of Morgoth in that hour was the greatest and most dreadful that was ever heard in the northern world; the mountains shook, and the earth trembled, and rocks were riven asunder. Deep in the forgotten places that cry was heard. Far beneath the ruined halls of Angband, in vaults to which the Valar in the haste of their assault had not descended, Balrogs lurked still, awaiting ever the return of their Lord; and now swiftly they arose, and passing over Hithlum they came to Lammoth as a tempest of fire. With their whips of flame they smote asunder the webs of Ungoliant, and she quailed, and turned to flight, belching black vapours to cover her.

It doesn’t actually say anything about how fast they got there. “In that hour” simply means “at that time” here. On the other hand, they travelled “as a tempest of fire”, which certainly implies magic and speed. Either way, with such inherently magical creatures as the Balrogs, saying that they cannot travel very quickly without flying seems somewhat naive.

Good meme though, always appreciate something that makes me go back to the scriptures.

To be completely fair they lived in a world where there actually were real differences between the races. In our world racism is silly because there aren’t any actually relevant differences between the races, but the differences between elves, men, and dwarves are very real in middle earth. Not enough to pull everyone over a comb (to use a swedish proverb), but at least there’s some substance to it.

What you want to do is create an arc between the stick and the line, and not have it transfer to you. A dry stick would do this quite well, since it would be at ground voltage and as such would provoke a short arc without electrocuting yourself. The fence also probably doesn’t have all that much power, likely can’t deliver more than a few amps, so it would be quite safe even.
