See, THIS is what the Internet is supposed to be for

People also ask
Who legally owns the One Ring?

Realistically the Nation of Gondor would have the strongest claim and thus Aragorn as it rightful head of state.
While Isildur took the ring as spoils of war it was never taken from him or sold. Just lost this becoming an artifact. It was found by Deagol and should have been given to the Gondorian authorities for curation in a museum. Though Mordor does have valid.claim as the artefact was created by one of its citizens and is a cultural price of great importance

Isn't it technically Sauron's property?

I thought this was made pretty clear. It "answers to him and him alone" could imply ownership in perpetuity. Probably more than a few quotes to back that up. Everyone else who possesses it brings it back to Sauron in one way or another. Or the sackville bagginses.

also he never willingly abbandoned it. so legally don't think anyone else has a claim

The Deagol estate.

Possibly the actual answer, if abandonment kicks in while it's in the river, he might be the true owner when. he dies.

But if he died intestate without a will, it would revert through escheatment to the local government, since killing Deagol does not make it Sméagol's. So it would become the possession of whatever government the Stoors have??

"It's No Game" is a song written by the English singer David Bowie for his 1980 album Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps), featuring lead guitar played by Robert Fripp. The song is split into two parts, opening and closing the album. "(No. 1)" is musically sinister, featuring Bowie screaming […]

@SRDas TIL there is a genre known as Zom Com. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombie_comedy :bongo_cat: Can highly recommend The Dead Don't Die if you haven't seen it. Also maybe Babadook except I've only seen the trailer and I couldn't sleep after watching it...

Recently noticed Pump Up The Jam by Technotronic lyrics "the pride are jumping" in one verse and "the pride is jumping" in another. Slightly frustrated by the inconsistency but at least a human wrote it.

Korean study is going well, and teacher (speaks fluent Japanese) mentions the kanji for Sino-Korean Vocabulary (한자어). This video breaks down the patterns (for Japanese speakers) and hopefully will stick. )Makes sense having studied Mandarin.): www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nj_fq26gL6A…

@gruff I think there's a lot to gain sanity wise and financially by living further out (I lived in/near Odawara for about 10 years). Last train some nights, first train others. 2-chome once a week (if that) and the other 6 days enjoyed in other ways. Good luck finding your happy place.

I can tell you the local history or layout of the places I know and love but can't recall having a meal with you at a certain place 3 months ago... 🤔 I guess it's something to do with what I pay attention to but it's also a bit concerning.

It's a very silly country. Especially the bits with half hour timezones. That map is actually simplified, because it doesn't include Eucla time: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTC%2B08:45

A map, produced by ABC News, reminding people that Daylight Saving Time has begun in some parts of Australia, and showing the times in each state and territory as at 9 am AEDT.
