Life in the Slow Lane.

My name is Dave. expert procrastinator. amateur optimist. This blog has mostly outlived its usefulness, but I keep it as an archive and as a way of finding art and whatnot. To you humans out there, I use Instagram a lot more frequently, but I also try to connect with folks on here when I can. PLEASE NOTE: I AM a music, literature, movie, and cartoon ENTHUSIAST. NOT a critic. I enjoy a lot more of life than i dislike.

Our house has some interesting clutter.

I made a thing. I’ve been stressed lately and needed to do something that would help me relax, but I didn’t pay attention much while embroidering and screwed up a lot. 🤷‍♀️

You in the morning hours.

I really gotta quit this site, man. My notifications are nothing but bots. I can't even call em porn bots anymore, and that's almost more annoying?

Walter is my cousin’s dog. He really has a thing for swimming.

I’ve never seen a butt-mounted camera, but damn, this dog knows where he wants to go, and goes there fast.

THIS IS THE QUALITY CONTENT I WANT TO SEE

❝ These are the Rohirrim, as we name them, masters of horses, and we ceded to them the fields of Calenardhon that are since called Rohan; for that province had long been sparsely peopled. And they became our allies, and have ever proved true to us, aiding us at need, and guarding our northern marches and the Gap of Rohan. ❞

You’re able to call your parents “Mom” and “Dad”. They were not born with those names.

You’re able to call your teachers “Mr” or “Mrs” and their last name. You’d get in trouble if you addressed them by first name.

You’re able to call a celebrity by their chosen stage name.

You’re able to call your friends a shortened version of their name, their middle name instead of their first, or a completely random nickname.

You’re able to call a married woman by her husband’s last name, even though she was not born with that last name.

But when someone’s transgender, how does calling them by a name they were not born with somehow become a hassle?

So OMG I’m obsessed with the rangers always have been but I’m short so my friend calls me Hobbit . And well I got curious ! And looked up Hobbit Ranger And found a discussion that originally Aragorn WAS a “ brown faced hobbit known as Trotter” later Tolkien make him a man with elven connections and then furthered it into Aragorn and renamed him Strider , but HOLY SHIT BATMAN!! Aragorn WAS ORGINALLY A black hobbit named TROTTER .. my head is spinning

I love it :D And this is information I genuinely did not know. Aragorn has become a favorite of mine, especially since I’ve started listening to LotR, so knowing this information makes me like him even more.

Little gems like this are why I'm reading "The History Of The Lord Of The Rings" (albeit slowly) series!

Female clothing: no pockets

Gollum’s 500 year old tattered rags: has pockets where he keeps "fishbones, goblins’ teeth, wet shells, a bit of bat-wing, a sharp stone to sharpen his fangs on, and other nasty things.”
