. @robinfurth One of my most prized possessions are my Dark Tower Omnibi. I adore these books because they really flesh out the world, the backstories and the truth of all things Ka. Thank you for these and I hope that we can get some more soon! Long days and pleasant nights
What a lovely tribute from @TheAcademy to the masterful thespian and actor Patrick Stewart.
There was something extraordinary about the way Sir Patrick Stewart could make even the most powerful characters feel profoundly human.
Whether commanding the bridge of the Enterprise or guiding a generation of young mutants, Sir Patrick Stewart brought a tenderness to his characters that made us feel we knew them. Behind that unmistakable voice was an actor who understood that even the greatest heroes could be uncertain, that strength could exist alongside vulnerability, and that compassion was never a weakness.
Over a career spanning more than six decades, his performances became woven into the lives of generations who grew up watching him. As Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Professor Charles Xavier, and so many others, he left us with characters we loved, lessons we carried, and memories we'll always treasure.

Patrick Stewart has passed away. He is, was, and always will be my first introduction to Star Trek captains. This one really hurts. He lived a remarkable life, and an indelible mark on my life. You will be sorely missed. RIP.

This is our Suicide Mission.
EA shut down BioWare. Cancelled Mass Effect. Figured we'd quietly walk away.
Instead:
🔴 236,000+ signatures in 6 days
🔴 A #SaveMassEffect billboard in Times Square
🔴 Both Commander Shepards in our corner
🔴 The Expanse devs joining the fight
🔴 Mass Effect's own composers speaking up
The Reapers underestimated us too.
Your mission, Commander:

This absolutely made my day. No notes - absolute perfection. Right @davidmanly?
So sad! He was a wonderful character actor and was always up for poking fun at Star Trek. I cannot forget the classic #Futurama @StarTrek “Now say nuclear wessels” and of course “Ven Ve Voke up, Ve Has these wodies”. RIP and you will be sorely missed

Mass Effect games that I will continue to come back to.. I can’t even say how many times I have played them, but I will continue to voice my love of these games!! Right @davidmanly?
After much enjoyment, fun, sadness and tears, I have finally 100% completed the #MassEffectLegendaryEdition. Thank you @masseffect and @bioware for such an amazing ride! I have completed all 3 games countless times, but they never disappoint.❤️❤️#Legion #Garrus #Liara #talizorah
An oldie but a goodie - this writing with Mordin will forever live on #MassEffect

I have played BioWare games since KOTOR 2 but they will always be a foundational force because of @masseffect. @davidmanly and I repeatedly played the games (with our preferred morality) and loved every second. This is a huge shock that I won’t easily forget.
Wait…..that’s where it came from??
Awesome!!
I’m going to tell all of my classes tomorrow.
I am a simple teacher. Give me a new microscope for my classes and I am a very happy man #boysandtheirtoys

Tim Curry, iconic star of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Stephen King's It, Clue and more has sadly died aged 80.
Team Empire's thoughts are with his friends, family, and loved ones at this difficult time. He will be sorely missed.
Read Empire's tribute: empireonline.com/movies/news…
This one really and truly hurts. From the butler in Clue to Dr. Frank. N. Furter in Rocky Horror Picture Show and everything in between. He will be sorely missed. Rest in Peace. hollywoodreporter.com/movies…
Just came back from seeing The Outsiders musical with @davidmanly. I thoroughly enjoyed it and the way they did the fight was intense and raw. Highly recommend!
Why is it that whenever #TheShawshankRedemption comes on tv (right now airing on AMC), I must stop and watch it?
That’s right - because it’s my favourite movie!! What are other people’s movies that if they stumble onto it, they have to watch it? #Movietime
Such a sad day for fans of Destiny. It has been struggling for a long time (I haven’t picked it up since the end of the Lawless Frontier). But it deserved better than this. Thanks to @davidmanly for getting me into this game from Shadowkeep onwards. See you all starside #destiny2
