"not all men" you're right. Jesus Christ of Nazareth, the son of God, would never treat me like this

day in the life of an english major: helping my brother write his middle school essay

that boy can write but holy frick he cannot stay focused

[rantsramblesandrandomthougts]

currently trying to learn the gravity falls theme on piano and gosh darn it’s been so long since I sat down to play anything that I forgot who hard it actually is to learn a new piece

[theriu]

"Demoncrat" and "Magat" are the exact same level of immature middle-school name-calling. This is the kind of tactic people pull out to dehumanize and stereotype an entire group so you can justify ignoring everything they say instead of actually talking out why you disagree on an issue. Can we please discuss the highly complex spectrum of politics like adults or not at all. Please. I'm so tired.

"stop saying rocky is grace's dog, Grace is obviously rocky's dog" have you considered they're friends. have you considered that maybe they view each other as brilliant and brave and saviours of each others worlds and as their best friend? have you considered that they are friends who respect one another?

When spacewife talks you space*listen*

I wanted to draw pure sappy Kanera fluff where he’s just ENAMOURED WITH HER- So absolutely smitten like “me when I’m in a yearning competition and my opponent is Kanan Jedi Jarrus” he is so in love.

Hera: “Attack vectors and star maps a-“

Kanan: “my wife is so cool…”

And there’s also a close up of the chibis I drew (it’s an older screenshot before I drew her patterns shhhh)

you have to be careful reading too many things that are good/smart/well-written bc then you encounter something that isnt and you get confused like ? why didnt they just make this good ? were they stupid

[cozy-stardust]

Imagine Grace defined his name as the elegance definition of grace and Rocky spends years thinking how fucking ironic this clumsy leaky space blobs name is.

Until Grace slips out a sentence along the lines of "could you give me a little grace here" and Rocky immediately points out he used a word wrong so Grace has to explain that yeah, grace means elegance but it can also mean mercy sometimes too.

And Rocky has to suddenly reconcile that the clumsy leaky blob that saved his life twice, that almost certainly doomed himself to come back for him, name is Mercy.

"christian characters in movies are poorly written because the writers are atheist" "atheist characters in movies are poorly written because the writers are christian" stop fighting. all human experience is poorly written in movies because the writers are californian

"What if my friends secretly hate me?" What if they pray for you before bed? What if they hear a song come on and it makes them immediately think of you? What if when times are hard for them, they close their eyes and think of the memories they've shared with you? What if they study your face closely to see how you're feeling? What if they listen to your stories? What if they smile when you text them first? What if

[nightbringer24]

Someone's putting the G.R.R. Martin quote of "Ruling in the Medieval period was hard. Like, what was Aragorn's tax policy?"

And I've finally narrowed in on what bugs me the most about that comment. it misses the most fundamental thing about The Lord of the Rings and Aragorn specifically.

Aragorn is The One True King. He is THE perfect monarch for Gondor and the Numenorean line. He will fix things ("The hands of the king are the hands of the healer"), he will reconnect not just the living but the dead and right old oaths that have been wronged.

Aragorn is the classical example of the king. Not an absolutist monarch, but someone who is meant to be good and do good for all in the kingdom.

Was being a Medieval ruler hard? FUCK YES IT WAS. Undoubtedly. But The Lord of the Rings is NOT that sort of story.

[nightbringer24]

Also, from Tolkien's own words:

"I never set out to write a treatise on medieval governance or the practical burdens of kingship. My work is a mythology an exploration of moral truth, not political mechanics. Aragorn is not meant to be a bureaucrat but an archetype: the just king of legend, much like Arthur. Myth is concerned with the heart of a ruler, not the tax policies of his court.

The question of governance in the modern sense belongs to another kind of story one that I entirely respect, but did not seek to write. Real history is indeed complicated, but myth speaks to deeper, older truths. Power in my world is already perilous; no one may wield it without cost. Even the wise refuse the Ring, for good intentions alone are never sufficient. In that sense, my work hardly denies the burden of rule it only treats it in a different language.

As for the orcs: they are not a people I delight in destroying. Their existence is a tragedy, a corruption of something that was once good. No just king would slaughter the innocent, for even in the darkest creatures there remains a spark of the original creation. Mercy is not weakness; it is the highest form of strength.

You ask questions proper to politics. I ask questions proper to myth. Both have their place, but they need not answer each other in the same terms."

I can only find the clip from the interview on Twitter so here it is.

What a wonderful thing for our girls!!!

[lady-merian]

How so? How can it affect them? 🤨

[sunflowergardens-world]

My dear Merian! You must know I am thinking of his reblogging from one of them!

[green-great-dragon]

Is that his design in blogging here?

[estel-and-agape]

Design? nonsense, how can you write so! But it is very likely that he may reblog from one of them, and therefore you must follow him as soon as his blog is online.

[lady-merian]

I see no occasion for that. You and the girls may follow him, or they may follow him by themselves, which perhaps will be still better for them, for as you are as clever as any of them he might reblog most from you of the party.

"You only like this character because she's a woman!" okay and you hate her because she's a woman, knowing that she has all the traits you would enjoy in a male character.
