What’s your core memory of watching the Lord of the Rings films for the first time because I will never forget how my extremely South Asian dad — during the emotionally climatic scene where Arwen is riding to the Havens and sees a vision of her son — paused, pointed, and said “Mashallah, Sister Arwen has accepted the hijab, alhamdulillah, praise be to god” and giggled for a good five minutes 😭

last time i shared this in a uni tolkien club someone called him a misogynistic fundamentalist because irl tolkien clubs are fucking deranged so please let me clarify that he was, in fact, joking.

[ID: Arwen riding her horse. She wears a cloak with the hood up, her bags and neck still visible. /end ID]

#im obsessed someone should draw arwen in a hijab

Why didn’t I think of that sooner? Here, have a quick edit

[ID: Edit of the above screenshot in a painterly style. Her hood has been altered to be a face-framing hijab, her bangs are hidden by an undercap, and her cloak is closed to cover her chest. /end ID]

when i post about women and loving women as a lesbian i am always talking about trans women as well they are always included i really cannot stress this enough you are not a true feminist if you do not respect and love trans women and you should either change or die but im not fucking arguing with u people on this shit in this day n age especially not on tumblr.com. get out of my space forever

RUTINA WESLEY AS TARA THORNTON True Blood 2.06

[dct239394cvvd098dffgggp]

everyone quotes "time is a flat circle" from true detective but my favorite rust lines stay "she spared me the sin of being her father" abt his dead daughter and "i dont like this place, nothing grows in the right direction" about the swamps of louisiana and "you should kill yourself" so much truth in this detective

I wish I didn't have to describe her from the memory of what she was like years ago, before she was killed. I wish that she was here to speak for herself, and that people would know her firsthand. I wish that more people knew the person I was before my sister was taken from me. I wish she was in her thirties right now like she's supposed to be, and that we could know each other as adults. I wish that we could talk, laugh, and cry with each other. I wish that people wouldn't suggest that I write down everything I want to say to her in a journal. I wish that she came home that night.
