IM ACE AND A TOLIEN FANNNNNNNN
I have noticed that there are a lot of asexuals in my Tolkien fandom circles (which is AMAZING, as a fellow ace Tolkien nerd, I ADORE THIS)
but I do just have to wonder, just how big is this venn diagram? so: a poll. please reblog for larger audience
The final project for my Spanish class was to make a piñata, and, seeing as the brain rot has fully consumed me, I made my piñata to be the flag of Gondor on the back and the Trees of Valinor, Laurelin and Telperion, on the front.
I am very happy with the results!
Fëanor and Nerdanel.
Fëanor sails for Middle Earth.
Nerdanel stays.
Fëanor is bonked by balrogs.
Nerdanel mourns.
No one mourns the wicked.
This just in, it's not actually homophobic to not enjoy incest shipping
ao3 turns 15 today
reblog if youre older than ao3
(there's a lot of people asking about this, but the legal age to use social media is 13, except in few countries. so yes, there are people here under 15)
Tell me why I was on a road trip with my dad to go hunting, and I was talking about the parallels between Frodo and Maedhros (tormented by Sauron/morgoth, lost an appendage, the lost appendage represents freedom from torment, going to valinor to escape, and leaving valinor to escape, AND different ways of dealing with mental illness), and was like, "you're in the two percent club."
And I was like, "what's that"
"Like you are in the two percent of people who would make these connections. Have you considered putting this concentration in something like math? Which might make you money?"
And I was like, "well, you see, math is not that fun and with these guys I can write informative and argumentative essays in my free time and pretend it's fanfiction, soooo"
And then he kept letting me explain the fall of Gondolin 👍 love that guy
(I have not written those essays, but if my ELA tech asks, I will, no hesitation)
If you could transimigrate anywhere in Arda with rock solid, Eru insured plot armor where would you go?
I'm falling right into Nerdanel's arms
(A poll for my shi lil munchkins lurking around. Rest can comment)
I am Earendil (one of the only people in my family that doesn't like football) with my silmaril (a stretchy headlight that my dad gave me) and I am tending the dark, solitary affairs of the Void (grilling chicken wings after dark while everybody else is watching the game) on my mighty ship, Vingilot (my brother's weightlifting bench that makes a very nice seat).

When you have to WRITE
And you have to CREATE
And you have to TYPE
But your fingies need to move faster than your brain and you CAN'T
Helo.
I have just had double stuff oreos for the first time.
I now firmly believe that they simply have TOO MUCH stuff.
Cannot imagine how crazy those mega stuff oreos are gonna be.
this is my favorite genre of bts pictures.
like just actors in full costume with some random item or article of clothing that does NOT fit the universe their story is set in
Currently resisting the urge to eat a little Debbie with a fork rn
Not too tired, just had an iced coffee
Reblog if you're asexual and tired
One of the best gifs of all time
Should I kill this minor character's mom?
Why I should: good character development, creates conflict with her friend who thinks the people that killed her mom were pretty legit
Why I shouldn't: it will make me have to write MORE, it will create conflict, it was in the original plan but I'm kinda just not feeling it anymore
Me, donning my shield of faith, breastplate of righteousness, and sword of the Spirit: ah lads, here we go again
My sister: why are you so Bedecked™️ we're literally going to school
Me, putting on my helmet of salvation: BECAUSE
Sister: it keeps going
Me, almost falling over, tugging on the boots of peace: IM GONNA NEED THESE IF I HAVE TO DEAL WITH HOOLIGANS
You know, I think it's nice that the story of the Samaritan woman is in the Bible. Like, in those times, women were not often given very many freedoms, and not often mentioned in texts, so I enjoy it very much.
And also, I think it's very nice because Jesus is just hanging out at a well, vibing, as one does, and He offers this lady---whose people hate his people---the love of Christ. Like He is SUPPOSED to not like this lady because of her culture and her people; Jewish people in that time would literally WALK AROUND Samaria just so they didn't have to talk to the people there (That's also what the Disciples wanted to do)!
So Jesus coming to this woman out of the blue, forgiving her of any sins she had committed, and generally being kind to her in a time of sexism cultural dislike is AMAZING! Not only is He defying societal norms by going through Samaria and seeing the people there, He's also speaking with this woman because he wanted to! Because He cared!
Jesus doesn't care what your past is, where you come from, or if you've done wrong in your life. He loves YOU, regardless of what you've done in the past.
And I just
I like that.
My brain, sitting in a deer stand, no deer in sight: hey let's read some fanfic
Me: okay, then
My brain, after three minutes: hey what if Finduilas was Trans and became Gil-Galad for her transition. Because she died. "Finduilas" would be her dead name. It can be assumed that Turin was out of his noggin when he saw her "death", and just assumed she died.
Me: crack ideas to think up NOW? When my fingies are cold and I can't type well on my phone?? Really????
My brain: and can't the Peredhel Choice also be kinda trans-coded? Like choosing man or elf? Male or female characteristics? Something you already have---chromosomes (X/Y) or man/elf genes---but have to choose?
Me: I AM LITERALLY SUPPOSED TO BE WATCHING FOR DEER RIGHT NOW, NOW IS NOT THE TIME
And guys, I don't even think Gil-Galad is trans (I think he's ace/aro, don't judge), but I just think this concept would be really funny! And I also don't think the Peredhil are Trans, but I like making connections!

Me reading the book of Matthew and Jesus's parables: dang. Bro is dropping straight BARS.
Like at the end of Matthew 17, J-man and His bros (Jesus and His disciples) go to the temple in Capernaum, and the guard dudes are like, "yo, yall gotta pay the Temple Tax™️"
And Peter is like, "My lord, is it right to pay the temple tax?"
And Jesus basically goes, "Does the king take taxes from his children?"
Peter: "uhhhhhhhh no"
Jesus: "then the children are exempt for the tax. However, these guys will throw a hissy fit if we don't pay, so go catch a fish, and in its mouth you'll find some coins to pay it with"
(Matthew 17:24-27, NIV)
Like bro??? Again, he is just slaying in everything he's in!!! My Lord is an icon!!!! Literally!!!! Praise be to him cause NOBODY else can be such an icon!!!
Quick question.
You know the Dad Shirts™️, right? Or even better, the Apocalypse Dad Shirts™️? Or, if you look really closely, the shirt that Sam wore when he was first seen gardening in the Fellowship of the Ring, when Bilbo was narrating the wonders of the Shire? Yeah, the Dad Shirt™️.
These bad boys.
ANYWAY
Do you think that, given the opportunity, Fëanor would wear the Dad Shirt™️?
