By God, I'll not lose Hardy!

I love writing and moaning about writing, history, reading, pretty things, cute things, and silly things. This tumblr is a mixed bag of them all! Perpetually stuck in rarepair hell. My fic on AO3. Dreamwidth.

Really wonder how the whole trial by abyss thing is meant to work. Like, it's obviously based on the medieval concept of trial by ordeal, but I just can't imagine Manwë is very big on people being eaten by sea monsters, even if they aren't Faithful. D'you think when Ossë shows up to the summons, he always has Ulmo and Uinen in the background like

As if Joanne couldn't get any shittier, she misgendered and insulted a woman who called for support, all because the woman had PCOS/PMOS and "didn't sound feminine enough."

Fuck her.

Your shitty children's series isn't more important than people's lives.

This would be equally as shitty if the woman who was misgendered and insulted was trans instead of having PCOS btw

This is an official anti-JKR post

“The Eclipse”, featuring Arien and Tilion, is based on “La Belle Dame sans Merci” by Frank Dicksee.

This piece took me 92 hours, 30 of which I spent on the frame alone! I found the patterns for the stars in the background on a quilting website and the border patterns on a free graphics & patterns one.

Borderless versions (with and without stars), closeups, and process photos beneath the cut!

While we get many mentions of Sauron and Melkor's actions throughout the Legendarium, we hardly get mentions of Mairon fighting at war. So this passage of Mairon providing distraction while Melkor retreated to their stronghold and gathered their forces, is a small glimpse of them working in unison that I really appreciate.

of course i love seeing people pushing back on the stereotype of ancient rome as this noble and glorious marble white cradle of civilization but very often it just goes too far into this equally wrong way of thinking when people start to paint ancient rome as this uniquely evil culture that's not only uniquely evil by itself but also is like a progenitor of Everything Wrong with modern society. people literally think if it wasn't for ancient rome we would have no patriarchy or slavery or colonialism. which is like. Okay so you don't know anything about any ancient culture whatsoever
