I mean, yeah, valid! but but but I also want to add on the fact that lotr AGGRESSIVELY rejects the “grimdark” and “gritty” settings that is so prevalent in fantasy (and also in general) right now, because I physically can not shut up about it

It is hope and love and compassion that saves each character individually, and because of that, the world. Frodo fails in the end, but his acts of compassion from earlier in the story save the day. And even as the world is saved, it is acknowledged that Frodo failed—without judgement, without blame. He fails, and he is still loved.

And like what can happen in the real world, he is still irrevocably changed by his trauma. But there is still hope—he has to leave, but he leaves with the promise of healing, and the promise that his ever-faithful Sam will follow.

Aragorn, Boromir, Frodo, Sam; each and every one of the characters are driven by their love of the people around them and their hope for the future. They cling to that love and hope throughout their trials, and that bears them through.

Of course people are watching it for comfort!!!! Lotr is eternally consistent in its promise, which Sam articulates so clearly in The Two Towers: “Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines, it’ll shine out the clearer.”

Things are dark and awful and terrible, but it will not be that way forever. That is the promise of LOTR. A promise of hope, and the reminder that it is love and compassion—for our friends, for our families, for the strangers we’ve never even met—that will save us in the end.

The real mystery of Stardew Valley is WHO is harassing Linus? He's got all this dialogue about how people trash his tent and throw rocks at him . . . SOMEONE in this valley needs their ass kicked and I am ready and able

#i like to think data took him all the way to the brig tossed him in and left#and then came back 60 seconds later and was like ‘i believe i have successfully played a ‘practical joke’ on you :)’#riker loses it & claps him on the back like ‘wow. good job u rly had me going. dont ever fucking do that again’ Perfect.

[ingridverse]

Actually it’s 73 seconds. Data, knowing something of how human minds work, estimates that Riker will give him 60 seconds to come back (because humans prefer “round numbers”, however arbitrary the units). After 60 seconds it will take 4 seconds for Riker to fully process the conclusion that Data is, in fact, not coming back after all, and an additional 9 seconds to build to the optimum level of anxiety. 

After all, comedy is timing.

bitches really listing Stardew Valley down as one of their calming games when you’re supposed to play it like you’re gonna die every 11 minutes, like an entire operation with at least a dozen tabs open and the townie’s favorite gifts on a spreadsheet and each crops yield-to-time ratio ranked and memorized

Star Trek TNG characters and whether they'd rat me out for farting on the bridge

(for the sake of argument let's assume it was a dank, zeppelin-sized fart I absolutely had to let out before it Hindenburg’d my intestinal tract, and not just me being rude for no reason)

Beverly: doesn't rat me out. Probably messages me privately later to politely suggest I stop by sick bay

Wesley: doesn't rat me out on purpose, but whispers to me way too loudly and still gets me caught

Geordi: rats me out accidentally after seeing an “unusual gaseous emission” on his VISOR and announcing it to the crew, but feels bad about it

Worf: rats me out without hesitation (and tells me my flatulence was “dishonourable”)

Pulaski: rats me out to everyone and offers to prescribe me an anti-gas med

Riker: rats me out to the captain but only if it's funny

Deanna: doesn't rat me out but subtly indicates to me she knows I did it, and 100% gossips with Will about it later

Data: doesn't rat me out but if someone else does he gives everyone an impromptu treatise on flatulence. Tries to teach himself how to fart later that week

Picard: does not rat me out but calls me into his ready room to give me a stern speech about “Starfleet decorum”

Ro: doesn't rat me out but tracks me down in Ten Forward after to ask if that was me

Barclay: too awkward to rat me out and accidentally creates a distraction for me by going into a coughing fit when he smells it

Yar: if Picard asks about it she'll rat me out; otherwise she won't, but she does turn to me and say “Seriously?”

Lwaxana: loudly announces to everyone within earshot that I farted and I was hoping no one would notice, but it's okay because it wasn't my fault for PASSING GAS IN FRONT OF A DAUGHTER OF THE FIFTH HOUSE OF BETAZED, THE HOLDER OF THE SACRED CHALICE OF RIXX AND HEIR TO THE

Q: says “ooh, how gauche!” and then either makes it so the entire ship can smell my fart OR makes my farts smell like wedding cake, depending on his mood

Remember when Sherlock tracked Irene around the globe, traveled to Karachi, infiltrated a terrorist cell, slashed terrorists to death, staged her fake-death, deceived his brother, the British government, his best friend and everyone who viewed her as an enemy...for a woman he met only twice before.

And still he says, he doesn't believe in romantic entanglement. Bro. Please. 😂

[vvartes]

But some people think he did all this because he was bored and that after having all this work, they just greeted each other with a handshake... Okay 👍🏼
