Literally stop having anxiety it’s not real.
tbh I’ve always found it very funny that Elrond is like “there’s no point bringing Glorfindel on the quest, even though he’s a balrog-slayer. You won’t need balrog-slayers” and then thirty pages later they run into a balrog
#and they could’ve really benefited from having a glow in the dark elf in moria (via @emyn-arnens)
obsessed by the implication that glorfindel is bioluminescent
#most elves aren’t #just glorfindel #dwarves on the other hand ARE bioluminescent #but it’s in a spectrum that elves and men and orcs can’t see in #hobbits can see in that spectrum fine #for better mushroom hunting #but they think it’s rude to point out that one of their party members is glowing #and so the dwarves have no idea the hobbits notice (via @mandaloriandy)
The first night Bilbo camped with the company he very nearly said something about it, but, having no idea what dwarves are and thinking it might be rude, he kept the observation to himself and decided that dwarves must be some kind of fungus. It improved his estimation of them most incredibly, and was, in fact, one of the observations he was most keen to pass on when he got back, seeing as how—even if it didn’t quite make him respectable, per se—it at least provided a valuable new addition to hobbits’ mushroom-lore, which no one (not even a certain few silver-spoon possessing relatives) could fault him for.
#anyways it’s common knowledge in the shire that dwarves are actually just a kind of mushroom#but no one says anything#because they think (seeing as how the dwarves haven’t brought it up themselves) it would be rude (via @willowcrowned)
My partner, reading this over my shoulder: “It never ceases to amaze me when Tolkein fans write meta that goes off in really bizarre directions”
Me: “These books are 70 years old, everything normal to say about them has been said; if you’re gonna say anything new about it, it’s gonna have to be weird”

as a society we need to do something about mike flanagan
I understand the urge to comment on recent trends in which people seem to want increasingly sanitized media compared to the recent past, but when you say things like "people used to just shrug and move on when there were books and movies that made them uncomfortable" it's like...well. actually people used to convict artists of obscenity in a court of law.
anti abortion propaganda that tries to like scare you into feeling guilty by reminding you that the fetus has body parts are so funny. "uwu please don't abort me I have eyes at 4 weeks old 🥺" nice try sucker I don't care if you see it coming
best possible answer
A Shock. (Jinlan City pt.2 First)
[ID: A Scum Villain Comic. Panel one shows Plant! Shen Yuan and SJ!Shen Qingqiu walking side by side. SQQ has his hands folded behind his back as he says "Now that that nuisance and accommodation is sorted-" SY interjects to say "I thought Yang Yixuan was nice." Chibi!SQQ rolls his eyes and gestures with his hand as he responds "Tch. Hardly. He's too much like that brute." Chibi!SQQ then looks towards SY and continues "Regardless, A-Yuan is to stay by this Master's side. Understood?" To which SY's speech bubble responds "Understood!"
Panel two has SQQ continue speaking, "Now, A-Yuan. Where's the best place to find information during a plague?" Chibi!SY replies confidently, gesturing with his pointer finger, "A brothel!" SQQ's speech bubble says "Excellent." It then shows the back of SQQ and SY as SQQ teasingly says "Seems A-Yuan learned something from this master after all." SY's shoulders jump in slight offense as he responds "Wh- A-Die!"
Panel three cuts to SQQ and SY arriving at the brothel. Chibi!SQQ gestures with two fingers for SY to follow him as he says "This place seems promising. Come let us-" He interrupts himself as a zoom in on his face shows abject horror and shock. It then cuts to a view of one of the brothel's open windows that shows Luo Binghe, dressed in reds and blacks talking to a male and a female huan hua disciple. LBH has SY's hairpin that he got from the immortal alliance conference in his hair.
Panel four has SQQ quickly turning SY around much to SY's surprise. With his hand on SY's back/shoulder, he commands "A-Yuan, return to the weapons shop." to which SY responds "A-Die What-" It then shows a more zoomed in view of SY, looking towards SQQ in a mix surprise/fear/concern as he questions "I thought you wanted me to stay with you?"
Panel five shows an obscured side view of SQQ's face as he says "There is a demonic presence here that A-Yuan is not equipped to handle. Go aid you Mu-Shishu." Chibi!SY looks at him with sad/concerned confusion as he responds "But I don't sense anything?" SQQ's speech bubble says "Now. Yuan." Chibi!SY turns away from SQQ with a "...Fine." End ID]

I was in a long-term relationship that fell apart partially because I was ace and my partner was very much not, and every time we looked for relationship help we got told that I was the problem. Not just that a significant mismatch in sexual desire could be a problem in a relationship, but that it was My Fault, Specifically, for not being willing to suck it up and have a bunch of sex I didn't want. To my ex's credit, he cared about consent much more than any of the professionals we talked to and refused to pressure me even when my (lesbian, billed as progressive and pro-LGBT) therapist was actively telling him to.
But it meant that we had absolutely no help or support when we were trying to work on the relationship in ways that *did* value my autonomy. There's basically no advice for people who want to try to make a relationship where there's a big desire gap work that isn't "well you should just have sex anyway" or "just break up lol". And that sucks!
Sometimes breaking up is necessary, and that's what ended up happening with us because there were other reasons we worked better as friends, but there *should* be better frameworks for discussing what people want and need that don't automatically assume that one partner's feelings are automatically more important or valuable than the other's.
I was dating someone who wanted to be accommodating and work with me to figure things out but lacked the EQ to do so in any effective way. It was my first relationship and I was still figuring out what being ace meant for me. It’s been eight or nine years, but I still remember very clearly the moment I realized we’d been approaching the entire discussion as if my orientation was the problem to be solved, and that it would be equally as valid to say that hers was.
She was significantly less impressed with this revelation than I was, but I tried to hold on to it ever since (although obviously the real problem wasn’t either one of us, but the mismatch and the lack of tools to deal with it). I think it’s super important to remember that we aren’t the ones in the wrong while our theoretical partners are the ones in the right. I was surprised by how much I’d internalized the assumption and I don’t think I’m the only one.
The other frustrating aspect of this is allo relationships will often have periods of time where libido does not match (I'm not derailing and this will swing back to asexual people)
Just after giving birth, during a family crisis, during a mental health episode, during health problems, during stressful periods at work
There are a lot of times when one person is horned up and raring to go and the other has no interest
And the solution often presented is that the person who is going through something should just put out because they are the problem instead of like...finding ways to engage in non sexual intimacy to reaffirm closeness
An asexual person is going to get 10x the amount of pressure and blame put on them and no advice on how non-sexual intimacy can help their relationships and if they get that at all it will only be to sell it as a bridge to sex they don't want.
I really hate the selling of intimacy as only equaling or facilitating sex. Intimacy comes in many forms and should be explored more by every couple as a non sexual act. And it the given importance it deserves. In fact I would argue if we as a society put more value on non sexual intimacy more relationships would be happier and healthier
And asexual people would stop getting shit for being themselves.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
All of this, in ace AND allo relationships alike, is toxic as fuck. If someone is trying to pressure you into sex you don't want: that is wrong. That is sexual harassment at best and potentially sexual assault.
As an asexual, there are a lot of things I wish allos would learn from us. Right now I want you all to understand we ALL deserve better than this. Consent fucking matters, and sexual assault or harassment within a relationship is NOT okay!
The way we sexualize any form of physical intimacy is 100% part of the problem. It's all seen as foreplay or flirting, and it flattens and deadens our ability to be with one another platonically but intimately. This has fucked me over so many times as an ace person, where the other person thinks I am dtf and I just wanted, like, a slightly longer hug.
Happy Birthday Xie Lian!!! 🧁
This amount of individualism is exactly whats gonna kill us all btw
"Going a couple hours without eating a single kind of food? No thanks, I would rather kill a child" is such a wildly horrifying take to see MULTIPLE people proudly stating.
You never know what color pallette someone's Tumblr is till ppl are screenshotting posts and tags
do u like mine
Oh wow.
Some people on tumblr are reading ancient scrolls and you'd never know
"trans people just name themselves after characters" as opposed to cis people who name their children after names in the bible
Or when people started naming their daughters after the mermaid in Splash

As promised months ago, I return with fanart for “Shen Yuan of No Relation.” Written by the lovely @grubus
I decided to use Ibispaint for this piece (an application I haven’t touched since switching to procreate) and it has changed SO MUCH since then 😭 I think I still prefer procreate for illustration tho
