Hell Song

[a-book-of-creatures]

Just introduced my fiancee to this masterpiece and watched her expression cycle through all 5 stages of grief in rapid succession

If you didn’t click play on that video before reading this, and are considering scrolling back up to listen while thinking “it can’t be that bad”, i invite you to think up the worst possible song your brain can muster

now stop

fool

you’re actually thinking up a song, stop that

now imagine: think of what a loud (but not yelling) 8 year old would word salad while pressing all the keys on a demo synthesizer keyboard at circuit city in the year 1994

now imagine a witch kisses that child on the top of their little head, and that child magically transforms into a perfect genetic copy of 38 year old Paul McCartney

….and keeps singing and going ham on that keyboard like nothing just happened

now you are ready

listen to the song

Do you ever lie awake wondering how the heck Gimli knows what a nervous system is

[systlin]

Clearly dwarves have medical knowledge far more advanced than that of the other races.

His Majesty Dr. Gimli, son of Gloin, Neurosurgeon, M.D.

gimli trying to explain his studies to legolas, a flat-earther

[hubris-i]

#*scroll down* #*remember that middle earth is canonically flat for elves and round for everyone else* #*scroll back up & smash that reblog button"

[fridge246]

tired: legolas took gimli to valinor with him because they were bffs/in love/etc. 

wired: legolas took gimli to valinor to prove the world was flat after arguing with him about it for decades

[jemthecrystalgem]

Sorry it’s what to elves

[dvandom]

So, in Tolkein lore, the world was originally flat, with most of the land in the middle (hence Middle Earth).  But the Numenorians (men who were rewarded with their own Atlantis-equivalent island for service in the first big war against Melkor, but eventually Power Corrupts etc) tried to invade the uttermost west which was basically Elf Heaven.  To put an end to that sort of thing, the creator of the world Bent The World and made it a sphere…but left elves able to treat it like a flat disk.  So elves can sail west and reach Elf Heaven, but a man or dwarf or hobbit who sails west will eventually wrap around to the east coast of Middle Earth.

This is why Legolas can see for such great, almost impossible distances. The Earth does not curve for him.

Legolas said fuck the horizon

God I fucking love high fantasy

i don't need another purse. i need a side quest bag. (Get yours HERE)

[daisy-pinky]

the fact that this isn't considered a wardrobe essential is proof we're living in the wrong timeline

For those who don't know: Ikumi Nakamura is the woman who was senior artist on Bayonetta, and designed the titular character along with Hideki Kamiya. Their greatest moment of bonding was over their insistence that Bayonetta keep her glasses on at all times. Nakamura cannot go to horny jail. She is the warden.

An Update from back in October I'm surprised wasn't added to this post. lol

[mousegirlheart]

um actually there's nothing wrong with letting cats be outdoor pets. your cat is depressed locked inside forever. it's animal abuse. let it outside. more cats should be let outside more often. especially overnight.

[tysonfurybattlepass]

NOOOOOO I CANT FIND THE IMAGE OF THE CAT LYING ON A POOL FLOAT THAT SAYS "daddys wasted dont ask me for shit" PLEASE someone help

[soupatariann]

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

[xenostalgic]

okay look not to be like "I bet it would feel good as hell", I don't, it would suck, BUT if you were a turtle with a coyote or something trying to get inside your shell to eat you, it would be terrifying but also a little flattering right? and a little disappointment would tinge the relief if it gave up and left you alone. maybe you'd be tempted to poke a foot out to keep them interested

[lscholar]

not a coyote. maybe a bird. I bet being picked up by a hawk, rapped firmly but not violently against a rock a few times, just so the hawk is sure, and getting to fly just before the end - seeing everything you know get smaller and smaller and then larger very quickly and then the cessation of all pain - would probably fulfill all desire and allow me to transcend reincarnation.

[xenostalgic]

you don't understand at all... once the hawk picks you up it's all over! there's no hope of returning to safety, but also no hope of prolonging its interest indefinitely! what if I want to wallow in dukkha? the coyote offers this

[the-supernatural-atheist]

if theres one thing that really pissed me off from my 3 years of architecture i took in high school it's learning about how we used to have all these little techniques to maximize or minimize heat or warmth and now we just merrily abandoned all those to have the same copypaste style buildings everywhere that are often INCREDIBLY unoptimized to the local weather and climate so we can just throw more money at our heating and cooling bills

[the-supernatural-atheist]

where i live it is hot as balls approximately 80% of the year. i do not want a massive butt-ugly grey mcmansion with a huge echoey open-concept kitchen-livingroom-foyer-diningroom-staircase that has huge windows so i can have an hvac unit the size of a barge heaving and straining to keep it at a constant 72 the grees. i want a north indian traditional style home with small windows to force the airflow to cool, decorative grates to limit the amount of sunlight, and a COURTYARD with a POND *smashes unspecified large object*

[makaeru]

I hate learning about instances of "oh yeah we know how to do that, we just don't".
