Deal With It

With the number of just generally very awful dads Tolkien writes, it makes me wonder for his childhood.

“That sounds like a good idea…….”-“Is there something bothering you with the idea?”-“No, the idea is GOOD…..🙂”

Can someone explain this to me?

The linguistic difference across generations is beautifully explained here thank you

that’s enough emotions for a whole year. ciao

The earlier in the year you reblog this the better it gets

I don’t use this but might be for someone out there who does, check it out?

reblog to save a life

reblog this post to let the mutual you reblogged this from know that you still like them

biggest regret is not getting in more car accidents

me when im about to die in a plane crash

My old person trait is that I think a website should work in a web browser and not try to open an app

My old person trait is I think video games should work without needing access to the Internet

My old person trait is that I think when I purchase a product, that it should be complete and functional and also that I should actually own it.

So we’re all just ignoring Tumblr Live right? Like not make eye contact and hold very still until it goes away?

how do you tell someone “i’m not ignoring you i’m just disconnected from reality right now and the days are all blurred together and i feel completely apathetic towards everyone/everything around me so it’s really hard for me to maintain a conversation” without saying that

Brain broken. Still like you. Talk later

I feel like Bilbo would teach the elves of Rivendell the concept of a mathom with the express purpose of oh so politely asking them over dinner how were the Silmarils not a mathom

By the way, it's important to me that Elrond supports Bilbo's claim and finds it quite insightful actually

No cuz I fucking love this sign. It’s not an actual barrier so it’s not like some sort of challenge it simply says “fuck around and you will find out”

smartphone storage plateauing in favor of just storing everything in the cloud is such dogshit. i should be able to have like a fucking terabyte of data on my phone at this point. i hate the fucking cloud

this is gonna make me sound very Old Man Yells At Cloud but i just hate how many things in my life assume i will always have access to a quick, reliable internet connection and almost cease to function without it. Obviously certain things Have To Have An Internet Connection, but i want to be able to listen to music if my service is bad. i want to still watch movies if Netflix is down. i want to have a working map when i can’t get a cell signal. nearly every tech product these days bears the fingerprint of the extremely internet-rich places they are developed, high rent offices in Seattle, San Francisco, etc.. I think often the idea of the internet not being available is so remote to them it doesn’t even factor in to development. i remember when the Xbox One was debuted and Microsoft was almost mockingly like “if you don’t have reliable fast internet, then don’t bother buying this”, and there was such backlash they completely went back on so much of that. But now that attitude is just the tech norm.
