Now that I’m thinking about it some more, I do like jewels a lot so maybe I’d be like a corrupt dwarf or a dragon or Finrod, with a huge hoard of gems and jewelry

Same question back at you!

Finally someone is asking the real questions!

I would give in pretty quickly if I’m being honest. But I don’t have grand ambitions, so I think I might end up like Gollum/Smeagol. 😬

Yeah. This is the first time since early November that we’ve had more than a couple hours of sunlight to charge our batteries; lots of clouds and snow. Lol. We’re in Northern Michigan

We live off grid and use solar as our main source of electricity and we’ve had to run our generator like 10x more so far than all last year combined! It’s been crazy what a big difference it’s been this year.

I want to read the Hobbit this year! But then branch out to non Tolkien books too. That’s my super non ambitious plan so far 🤣

Money and car. I’ll take more money! But I don’t need another car. Lmao

How cool would that be?!

Same here! I’m not enjoying it nearly as much as threads but I’m conflicted!

That seems probable. By the time she was ready to come back to her hröa, Finwë and Indis were separated for a long time anyway so it’s not like he had a relationship to go back to.

I struggle with social anxiety too and it takes conscious effort to step outside of my comfort zone of introversion and actually interact with people. I know how difficult it can be so well done!! I think it will probably be worth the effort in the long run (the jury is still out for me lol)

3. “Get the gone from my gate, thou jail-crow of Mandos!”
4. “Come forth, thou coward king, to fight with thine own hand! Den-dweller, wielder of thralls, liar and lurker, foe of Gods and Elves, come! For I would see thy craven face.”

Let’s add more!!

Finwë fathered some sassy boys. Here are some sassy quotes from his sons:

1. “Get thee gone, and take thy due place!”
2. “This is sharper than thy tongue. Try but once more to usurp my place and love of my father, and maybe it will rid the Noldor of one who seeks to be the master of thralls.”

By far my favorite book in the History series.

Season 2 made S1 much better in retrospect too. At this point, I’ve completely removed myself from the ROP slander online. It’s undeserved and comes off like people don’t really get Tolkien if they don’t like it. But that’s just me. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’m late but my vote is Vinyamar. Was Ulmo hot? I bet he was.

Damn! That got dark real quick. Lol. I was going to suggest Vinyamar when Tuor met with Ulmo and Voronwë.

“Come forth, thou coward king, to fight with thine own hand! Den-dweller, wielded of thralls, liar and lurker, foe of Gods and Elves, come! For I would see thy craven face.” —Of Morgoth, Notes on the Elder Days, Beren and Lúthien 2018

Cozy video games can quell stress and anxiety. Explore a charming town, meet quirky villagers, and take in the cozy vibes!

This is cute

I’d join in on defending Frodo

This is totally the aesthetic I like: total integration. Lol. I like it when Tolkien and Middle-earth are just a normal part of life.

A UK 1st edition, 10th impression Return of the King that I got as a Christmas gift this year!

Damnit, hang on

This was me after that scene in ROP

It’s wild to think MAEGLIN was probably allowed to be rehoused when Fëanor wasn’t.

I can’t imagine that his spirit would have been “healed”. The dude was a huge dick. Massive.

He’s totally the kid that kills small animals as a child that ends up being a serial killer in adulthood.

Someone should superimpose Elon’s face on all the Nazis in that movie.

I think 3 people in “entertainment” are incredibly important for children to be exposed to:
1. Tolkien (duh)
2. Fred Rogers
3. Carl Sagan

I’m trying so hard not to do the brain rot shows with Iroh.

Y’all… Nosferatu was so good. I guess it’s technically horror, but it’s definitely not scary. It’s very atmospheric and gothic and moody and the sense of dread is just so good. Probably the best vampire movie I’ve ever seen. Robert Eggers really is so talented.

I’ve read him the Adventures of Tom Bombadil already. But he won’t remember any of it, obviously. Lol.
