How DARE Tolkien omit in the final draft the information that the traditional hobbit marriage custom is to have unspoken vibes for years and then disappear without explanation for an indeterminate length of time!?

#where's the fic where bilbo returns with thorin in tow and no one bats an eye#like#'he married a dwarf did he? well he always was an odd fellow'#'good day to you master dwarf how's your husband?'#and thorin is just ?????#'how do they know i'm courting him? did he show them the mithril shirt?'#just give me all the hilarious culture clashes ok

@finegoddamnit​ how dare you hide this in the tags

so that whole time merry, pippin, sam, and frodo are gone the whole shire is losing their minds arguing over who married who.

My favorite thing to do before executing a risky maneuver is to loudly proclaim to anyone nearby that "I'm young, I'm fantastic, and I'm never gonna die". This is firstly to pump myself up, secondly because if I succeed I'll be proven right in front of an audience, and thirdly because it is the funniest possible thing to say immediately before being horrifically mangled in a completely dumbfuck sort of way

my number one woman behavior is saying i’m fine with any pronouns and silently ranking people in my regard based on what they do with that information

[deirdreskye]

This is George Costanza behavior

[leafcrunch]

GEORGE: she he’d me!

JERRY: exclusively?!

GEORGE: the WHOLE evening.

JERRY: and this is the girl who had ACAB Land Back Fuck TERFs in her profile?

GEORGE: i told you, jerry! i told you that was a huge red flag. all performativity, no understanding behind it.

JERRY: i just don’t get it, who hears “any pronouns” and doesn’t even throw a they into the mix?

GEORGE: cis women on tinder, apparently!

KRAMER: *barging in* george! how’d that tinder date go?

GEORGE: terrible!

KRAMER: i warned you! jerry, i warned her, i told her “keep to hinge and her, there’s nothing for you on tinder” and did they listen?

JERRY: xe didn’t listen.

Pronouns? I mean, I'd say I am. I don't see why anyone would be anti-nouns, that seems like a weird hill to die on, especially since they're so common

Knowing that “punk” was basically a synonym for “faggot” has me fucked up. Imagine the alternate timeline where they switched places and we have genres like “faggot rock” and “cyberfaggot”.

and with your help, we can make this dream a reality <3

“so what’s your style called again?”

“oh, i’m a faggot”

There were clear connections to sexuality in the punk scene from BDSM to sex work to queerness. Kind of shows that reclaiming slurs can work. Even give it less teeth in the long run.

'Punk Lust': How Sexuality Fueled a Musical Revolution

A new exhibit at New York’s Museum of Sex shows that punk’s transgressive spirit extended far beyond the songs themselves

This Art Exhibition Unearths Punk's LGBTQ+ Roots

Punk was more influenced by queer artists and subcultures than you might think.

i just found out that nonbinary/genderqueer people in the 80s and 90s were called "gender outlaws" and i think its a crime that we dont use that term more

The night gardener once asked me if I knew how citrus trees died: when they reach old age, if they are not cut down and they manage to survive drought, disease and innumerable attacks of pests, fungi and plagues, they succumb from overabundance. When they come to the end of their life cycle, they put out a final, massive crop of lemons. In their last spring their flowers bud and blossom in enormous bunches and fill the air with a smell so sweet that it stings your nostrils from two blocks away; then their fruits ripen all at once, whole limbs break off due to their excessive weight, and after a few weeks the ground is covered with rotting lemons. It is a strange sight, he said, to see such exuberance before death.

as someone who grew up in an interfaith family it’s time to take a stance on christmas/hannukah cards. the best ones are for sure the ones where santa is gay married to a hasidic man

The worst thing in the entire world is when you’re sweeping a big pile of dirt into a dustpan and it leaves that little coke line of grit behind. No matter how you position your pan or your broom and no matter how many times you sweep over it your outcome cannot change. As immovable as fate. I hate it so
