i dont get offended at white people jokes even though im white because:
i can recognize white people as a whole have systemically oppressed POC in america, which is where i live
most people when they make white people jokes only mean the shitty white people and i am not a shitty white person
im not a pissbaby
This just in, it's not actually homophobic to not enjoy incest shipping
If you could transimigrate anywhere in Arda with rock solid, Eru insured plot armor where would you go?

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.
BLWASE AMAZON PLEASEEEEEE NLEASEEEE
I for one am holding space for hot Celeborn
for quite some time now ive wanted to redesign some of my existing maiar designs as well as give proper designs to some ive never really bothered with before, so here's some updated fullbody concepts! im happiest with mairon's honestly, but i really like the idea of olorin being a haggled, minimalistic shepherd who walks around valinor covered in dirt HAHAHAH
i also wanted to explore some of their potential dynamics with each other 😙 esp eonwe-ilmare and mairon-arien as siblings so these are just some quick doodles cuz my neck is in pa i n
compiled fullbody ref sheet under the cut 💃
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! 🤔
