The Storyteller’s Prayer
Jesus, Son of Man, also a storyteller, help me shape my words to do good and not harm, to do your work and not to aggrandize myself.
Jesus, Son of God, also a storyteller, let the words of my mouth, the meditations of my heart, and the fruit of my pen be pleasing to you.
Jesus, Redeemer, also a storyteller, let my stories echo your great story, the history and future of man and God.
This is a beautiful prayer. :)
everyone has to be nice to him
Hello,
My name is S and I struggle from being suicidal. It began in childhood and has been consistent my whole life. Not many days go by where I dont beg God to kill me. In December I turned a new leaf and began getting help and looking after myself. In April I fell in love with Jesus and began living each day for Him. I began following his commandments and savouring his word in my heart. I now feel gratitude for being alive. However I still frequently get suicidal and depressed. I suffered prolonged trauma during childhood when I was sexually abused by my father. I struggle today with complex-PTSD as well as chronic fatigue syndrome. Often these conditions leave me bedbound and I am unable to leave my house.
If you are seeing this, pray for me!
When one offers a humble suggestion and crosses the path of someone with a fraternity's worth of suggestions...
Side note: It's becoming a pattern that whenever I post something LOTR related after a break from it, it's usually because something frustrating happened in my life and I use the proverbial lemons to make metaphorical eyedrops... ദ്ദി╥ ᴗ ╥)
Having said that, shout out to "The Council of Elrond" and "The Ring Goes South" chapters from the book for making me grin when I went over how the Fellowship forms. Bilbo enthusiastically volunteering as tribute? Elrond throwing shade at Pippin and saying "my heart is against his going," like??? And then Pippin's response???? "You will have to lock me in prison, or send me home tied in a sack" !!!

Bonus for @mykingdomforasong:
the ideal media diet for a child is books and music from at least fifty years ago so they are always out of touch with the references and allusions of their peer group
Since my last post a lot of people had made the joke about Stratt projecting her period cramps on Grace, so here it is
Original post by @morallygrayautisticscientist here, this post was so funny I decided to draw it lol.
For those of you who joked about Stratt projecting her period cramps on Grace, I drew that too here.

Prayer Request:
My great uncle died recently, and his memorial is today. If you want to pray for our family and his soul, I’d appreciate it.
the BEST order to watch these films imo if new to them - 1. The hobbit cartoon 1977 (the following ALL theatrical) 2. The fellowship of the ring 3. The two towers 4. The return of the king
I think we as a society are sleeping on Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (1994). Like. We've got Victor Frankenstein creating the creature out of the body parts of his professor and the guy who killed him, incubating him in real human amniotic fluid that her purchased on the black market, and shocking him to life with electric eels. We've got the most lovable Henry out of any adaptation I've seen. We've got Victor and Elizabeth realllllly leaning into the incest thing and we've got. Well. The whole everything that happens after Elizabeth dies. It goes in so many new directions but on top of all of that still manages to be really book accurate!!! Such a fun watch, highly recommend to any Frankenstein enthusiasts out there.
This is my favorite adaptation of Frankenstein! 😁 Mostly book-accurate but making changes that work in the cinematic format.
Obsessed with the idea that a modern Dracula reimagining could have Count Dracula tossing Jonathan’s smart phone out the window, declaring it to be a “foul bauble of man’s vanity” and the bit would still work. XD
Dracula: You just need to unplug and experience life!! Live in the moment!!
Putting the term "Catholic guilt" on a high shelf where fandom can't reach it until everyone learns how to identify characters who are very very clearly coded as Protestant.
I try not to fall into the "I never liked their work anyway" ditch when an artist/creator reveals themself to be a terrible person
BUT
a feeling I do have and will stand by is "While I enjoyed their work overall I did have some gripes that I overlooked out of affection and whimsy, but now that my loyalty is gone and my affection tainted there is nothing holding me back from enumerating my many grievances, to which the revelations of the creator's shittiness may or may not provide a new and infuriating context."
Oh.
Yes.
This.
Dracula 1897 Fancast
This list is just a guide for visualizing and/or hearing the characters' voices as I read through the novel.
Count Dracula - Christopher Lee
Bela Lugosi is my favorite on screen Dracula... But I feel that Christopher Lee is a better fit for the book version.
Jonathan Harker - Arthur Darvill
Mina Harker (née Murray) - Keira Knightley
Lucy Westenra - Lily James
Arthur Holmwood - Tom Hiddleston
Dr. John Seward - Henry Cavill
Quincey P. Morris - Leonardo DiCaprio
R. M. Renfield - Gary Oldman
Prof. Abraham Van Helsing - Edward Van Sloan
Not how I pictured Van Helsing (due to Mina actually giving a detailed physical description of the man), but I loved his performance in the 1931 adaptation, so his voice was totally the one I heard while reading the character's lines. I chose a picture of Edward Van Sloan as Dr. Waldman in Frankenstein (1931) because his hairstyle in this movie is closer to Van Helsing's canonical hairstyle.
