Too much of anything is bad. Except coffee.

Word nerd, Catholic, sci-fi aficionado. My heart is fueled by coffee, contemplation and brotherly bonding. On a hunt for adventure in all the right places (mostly libraries).

Kids these days have it too easy. Back in my day, the Gregorian calendar wasn’t an international standard. Did the peace treaty take effect on the 25th or the 15th? Surprise! It happened on both!

J.R.R. Tolkien was born 3 January 1892, and died 2 September 1973

Always!

so i took a modern architecture course to fulfill a creative arts university req this semester and i have several conclusions now that’s done:

1. modern architecture? ugly

2. brutalism? somehow, even uglier

3. post-modern architecture? okay so now they’re actively trying to make it as bad as possible

4. neogothic? art noveau? art deco? absolutely spectacular, let’s have more of that

[minkidoodles]

to illustrate:

modern architecture:

ugly and boring

brutalism:

worse

post modern:

what the actual fuck am i looking at

art nouveau:

ooh hell yeah

Looks like I need a week to read my first week’s assignments.

honestly the funniest thing about the lord of the rings is how gandalf is literally a minor god sent to middle-earth by The Big Man Himself and yet literally nobody apart from the elves seems to recognise this or take him seriously

[valtsv]

like yeah gandalf is pretty grumpy most of the time but how would YOU feel if you were the fantasy equivalent of an angel and a bunch of people who only come up to your knee were just like “oh fuck it’s that spooky old wizard” every time you showed up for a friend’s birthday party

[bramblepatch]

I mean to be fair, he seems to actively enjoy the hobbits’ complete lack of awe, because what Gandalf loves most about hobbits is that they as a culture are 1000% unimpressed by any of the mythic-scale bullshit constantly going on right outside their borders. The thing Gandalf loves second-most about hobbits is their weed.

What gets on his nerves is the rest of the free peoples of middle earth, for whom he is constantly busting his ass and who consistently respond to his attempts to help with “why don’t you ever have any good news?” and also who don’t offer him any weed.
