Thoughts on this:

Carpe diem = sieze the day

Carpals/ metacarpals = bones in the hand

"Carpe diem" and "carpals" have a similar root.

"Carpe" is presumably "to sieze" and you use the hand, and consequently the bones in the hand, to grab something.

Grab = sieze

Therefore, the carpals are used to Carpe diem.

Celedriel Week Will Run From: April 6-12, 2025

Prompts Coming Up!

EDIT: In this scenario, it is the same year as the cannonical third kinslaying; little Elrond and Elros are hanging out somewhere, probably eating weird things as six-year-olds are wont to do, and Eärendil is at sea.

Learning about Robert e Lee and stonewall Jackson in class today and them dudes lookin a little gay

Teacher talking about how people would make PLATES with them hanging out on them, like girl c'mon.

Definitely not true, but the musings in usa history go a lil wild.

You know which two characters I’d love to watch interact? Fëanor and Bilbo. I just know that Bilbo would put the fear of god in Fëanor. The guy would change his name to Fëarnor after ten minutes in a room with Bilbo. Bilbo says completely out-of-pocket things every five minutes like it’s his day job. He once stabbed a pillar in Elrond’s house just to show Frodo that his sword was actually sharp as if there was no other way to do it.

That Hobbit would take one look at the Silmarils and ask Fëanor why he threw away his immortal soul for “what to me looks like a glorified matchstick, my dear fellow”. He would write a five page poem about all of Fëanor’s misdeeds from the time he broke a window as an elfling to the kinslaying, and then recite it to his face and make him give constructive criticism on the rhyme and meter. He’d say Nerdanel should have “gone for the smart one, not the pretty one”. He would say “my dear father is dead too but you don’t see me going around screaming like a banshee and killing everyone, do you?” He would tell Fëanor that many problems of the psyche can be traced to trapped wind, and inquire as to whether or not he ate anything “bean-adjacent” on the morning he made the Oath. He would ask him if he’d never heard of contraception, and suggest that he try breathing exercises next time he feels the urge to burn a ship or two. He’s mansplain Tengwar to him. He’d write a letter to Finwë telling him all this was the result of not disciplining his child at the age of five and send him a list of Supernanny-type childcare tips, “in case you want to try again, because I don’t think this world can handle underpopulation”. He’d have Fëanor crying in two minutes, I know it, I know it in my bones.

Yet another day of illustrating moments from my fic instead of editing the last two chapters and posting them like a normal person might do 😇✨

(this is a fun little sequence where Maglor is pouring his heart out into a lament to a tragedy in the general Fëanorian past, as he tends to, whilst the adolescent Estel, aka Elros II — the bane of Maedhros' re-embodied life, smells a business opportunity and starts selling overpriced tickets to local children)

Any setting where the elves have weaker booze than the dwarves isn't committing to the bit

Hey don't cry. Cut up 4 tomatoes and mix with fresh basil, 4 cloves of garlic, salt&pepper to taste, and a half cup of olive oil in a pan. Nestle 2 blocks of feta in the middle and drizzle olive oil and basil over it. Bake at 350 for 40 minutes or cheese is toasted at edges. Season chicken fillets with garlic salt, seasoned salt, and ground black pepper and pan fry. Boil pasta of your choice. Smush tomatoes and feta for your sauce. Dont worry, its yummier than tears.

My white ass when I see a subpar casserole

"come on lightly toasted cheddar cheese fix my ails"

what do you mean elon musk did a nazi salute on live tv at the united states presidential inauguration twice and is now erasing the evidence off the internet by replacing the footage with the crowd cheering instead?

would be a shame if people reblogged this, wouldn’t it?

BLWASE AMAZON PLEASEEEEEE NLEASEEEE

I for one am holding space for hot Celeborn

Jod na nawood: I lived in a hole in the ground when she (a jedi) found me!!!!

Me: 🤨 in a hole in the ground??? There lived a hobbit????

sometimes you need dialogue tags and don't want to use the same four

I'd sell my favorite fork for a semicolon

In my humble opinion

So in my Spanish class, the teacher has assignments on the board that say something like, "Tiana es Alta y trabajadora."

But recently, she ran out of Disney princesses and random names, so she had us write names on index cards and turn them in.

She handed me a couple of index cards, and I immediately the knowledge of the House of Finwë spark in my brain like,

Dain Aetos? The bitch from the Ironhills? Where'd he get Gil-Galad’s spear???

all my apologies to gimli who i cannot fit on this poll, zero apologies to denethor who i also can’t fit on this poll

Paging through the ancient tome (the secrets of the clone troopers by Marc sumerak) to find the secret knowledge (to see Rex's info about the clone wars) and to envision the possibilities (to gaze at the art of Sister again, she's so queen).

"Dennis the Menace" AU but it's Elros and Maedhros

Ace aro queen 👌 good rep in the media

“I am bride to no man.”

“Then tell me, to whom are you pledged?”

“Death.”

FRICK I haven't had breakfast and want some GRITS and I'm writing so my CHARACTERS are going to eat some GRITS because I SAY SO and because I'm HUNGRY but my characters' culture doesn't ADD UP with GRITS but they're EATING IT ANYWAY BECAUSE IM HUNGRY

Maedhros

tag your traumatized man comfort character

I affectionately called him the "twink Bard brother"

ill forever be thankful for whoever decided to make hama a twink

Hera from War of the Rohirrim is aroace. This is canon. She literally says she'll be the bride of no man, and when asked who she's pledged to, she says "Death." Fucking metal. Fucking aroace power move. Fucking icon. That is all.
