Not Too Tired, Just Had An Iced Coffee

Isildur is Elrond's, like, a gazillion times great nephew

Facts to share with new Tolkien Fans who are watching The Rings of Power:

Currently (within the timeline of the show) the earth is flat.

Little bunnies high in the sky

Are safe from emails and jargon.

Little bunnies flying high,

Probably don't know the element argon.

Little bunnies up in the stars

Dreaming and leaping with joy.

Little bunnies looking from afar

And have no fear of employ.

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)

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!

The way I am literally eating a yummy potato soup right now is INSANE

i love how you can feel the nutrients entering your body when you eat a really good soup

Had to make another poll because I’ve seen some more weird takes about my boy:

Please reblog for a bigger sample!

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,

This came to me after school, yall.

Elrond: so you're just to accept three rings of power---that are shiny---made by Fëanor's grandson, when the three shiny things Fëanor made led to the deaths of thousands of people?????

Gil-Galad, Círdan, and Galadriel, who were all directly affected by Fëanor's Crazy: I mean, come onnnnn. What could POSSIBLY happen??

Elrond: *flashbacks to his dads arguing about some shiny rocks over dinner* ORPHANS AND SUICIDES COULD HAPPEN, THAT'S WHAT

Cause yall. Bro has firsthand experience of what shiny metals/rocks/jewelry does to the brain. His mom, his adopted dads, like the whole shebang. And all these people that Elrond looks up to, and likely sees as close family/friends, are just being stupid!!!! ALL OF THEM lived through the First Age, so there's no reason for this tomfoolery!!

Yes, I know that they were deceived by Annatar, and I know that no one is infallible, but guys!!!! Three objects of power!!! You gotta wonder were we saw that last! 🤔

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.

This just in, it's not actually homophobic to not enjoy incest shipping
