Ramblings of a Modern Day Blonde

Do you ever lie awake wondering how the heck Gimli knows what a nervous system is

Clearly dwarves have medical knowledge far more advanced than that of the other races.

Sorry it’s what to elves

So, in Tolkein lore, the world was originally flat, with most of the land in the middle (hence Middle Earth).  But the Numenorians (men who were rewarded with their own Atlantis-equivalent island for service in the first big war against Melkor, but eventually Power Corrupts etc) tried to invade the uttermost west which was basically Elf Heaven.  To put an end to that sort of thing, the creator of the world Bent The World and made it a sphere…but left elves able to treat it like a flat disk.  So elves can sail west and reach Elf Heaven, but a man or dwarf or hobbit who sails west will eventually wrap around to the east coast of Middle Earth.

This is why Legolas can see for such great, almost impossible distances. The Earth does not curve for him.

Legolas said fuck the horizon

God I fucking love high fantasy

night driving used to be a relaxing vibe. Now it's just obnoxious due to LED headlights

the thing that really cheeses my cake about flies getting in my house is they clearly don't want to be there anyway. like at least the ants trying to steal cereal from my pantry had a goal and a plan. you are just here because you're too stupid to use a window twice

hitting return early on libby when there's people waiting and feeling like a benevolent queen distributing alms to the poor

Ah yes, we’re finally entering Maomao’s “expressing affection for Jinshi by repeatedly orchestrating ways for him to take more naps” era

“Americans go overboard for the 4th” I’m sorry but the last time I checked the only thing going overboard was tea.

SOUND ON. TRUST ME ON THIS ONE
