writing is just sitting in front of a computer and making up problems for imaginary people while ignoring your own. fun and casual hobby.
Reblog and put in the tags the book that is physically nearest to you at this moment.
Your 20s are not about getting your life together they're about learning to escape the self imposed torture labyrinth you've built inside your own head
Y'all for real please do these. Even if you're certain your posture doesn't suck. One day you will wake up with impinged shoulder pain like I did and let me tell you it fucking HURTS. Do these exercises even just once a week and it will make such a difference. Especially my fellow creatives out there, stop shrimping over your work and go do these right now. RIGHT NOW.
Also, if you’re even a little concerned about getting a hump or having trouble standing fully upright in your old age, this is how you prevent that. If you want to be up and about when you’re old you have to start when you’re younger. And keep in mind there is no bad time to start and it’s never too late. Starting today is way better than never starting at all.

Tolkien musicals marathon announcement: 25 years of Falešné společenstvo!

If you have any questions about the musicals, how to take part, or which musical is best for you, ask us in the comments :)

Durations include the necessary breaks, of course :)
While this marathon is still not exhaustive of FS' work over the last quarter century (!), it covers every musical at least once (where we have recordings). In the first two streams you can see a representation of the earlier era of more song-cycle/concert shows ("the classroom era") represented, while starting from 2017, the shows transform into the staged, choreographed musicals they are today.
In any case, enough yapping, we'd love to see you there! And if you have any questions, please ask!
It is the Long Peace, and Galadriel and Celeborn have decided that eloping, while allowing them privacy, would only result in them being hunted down by their families. They must, instead, have a grand wedding that somehow doesn’t devolve into a second kinslaying.
Easier said than done when the guest list includes Thingol, Fingolfin, Eol, and the sons of Feanor.
Fingolfin and Thingol pretend the other doesn’t exist after their first, very stilted greeting. Caranthir has, on the instructions of nearly every one of his brothers, decided to ignore Angrod and Aegnor.
Eol takes a moment to be very glad he did not bring his own wife and also that no one there knows he is married. He is especially glad of this after watching Fingon and Celegorm’s blindfolded knife throwing game.
discord, an application with no regard for your storage with a cache size that regularly balloons into many gigabytes, still has not figured out how to store thumbnails for your saved gifs, forcing you to sit there and wait for each one to slowly load over the network like it's 1990. bravissimo. no other app like it.
best yard sale find ever:
Dragons are fireless until they undergo the Hroom, the traditional draconic ceremony where a fledgling dragon will go out into the world and make a bargain with a spirit of elemental fire to live in their soul in a state of mutual symbiosis. The spirit receives shelter and nourishment, while the dragon receives a source of elemental fire, which it can only now use to defend itself.
In many draconic cultures, the Hroom marks a dragon’s coming of age, a time to recognize that a dragon is now of a proper age to hold a weapon and defend itself. Some dragons believe that it is only by bonding with an elemental spirit that a dragon has a soul, and that a dragon is only a whole dragon when it has both the mortal shell and the inner spark.
There has been a backlash to this in recent centuries, of course. Fledglings these days are going out and making bargains with all kinds of things. This is usually spirits of elemental lightning and ice, but more than one dragon has come back to their clutch with a fairly bewildered witch.
#Does the witch live inside the dragon's soul after...?
Metaphorically, yes. One dragon had married the witch she brought back to her clutch, and she said that meant their two souls had become one, which was basically the same thing.
The other dragons in her brood said it didn’t work that way, but she was able to breathe pure magic afterwards, so it at least worked that way for her.

Can you imagine being Gandalf? Getting shit from other wizards because you have a thing for hobbits and you're just like, okay. Okay, maybe I'll temper my fascination with hobbits.
This Ring quest will have two hobbits. Maximum.
Then they all get to Rivendell and have somehow multiplied into four hobbits. And it's like. Okay. Maybe the others are right.
Maybe this is too many hobbits.
We have as many hobbits as we have not-hobbits.
But damn it, you just don't want to get rid of any of these hobbits. Screw it! Everyone can deal. Four hobbits. This is a four hobbits problem.
So away you go.
And things go bad in the worst possible way.
Over and over.
You've lost your hobbits. You've lost yourself. The fellowship has been separated.
It takes everything in your power to help the humans defend themselves, bringing them together to save Rohan. Finally, as things begin to look upright, you're ready to face the war with everything the Rohirrim have left.
You're ready to face him. This may be the hardest battle you've ever fought. But you ride.
Then you get there and two of your fucking hobbits are sitting there like "Yeah, while you were gone, we raised a tree army and beat Saruman's ass. Wanna help us loot his tower?"
....
There were not, in fact, too many hobbits.
This was a four hobbits problem.
you are not a failure for not being able to handle everything on your own. you’re not having a hard time because you’re weaker than other people, things truly have been really difficult lately and other people would probably have a hard time too, and those who are overly critical of you don’t go through the same things you do, and they would probably struggle if they did. please have a little compassion for yourself. things have been really hard and you are not exaggerating. asking for help doesn’t make you a needless burden. you don’t have to carry all that alone.
I will always reblog this
still remember how revolutionary this ad felt 10 years ago
excuse me but it still feels revolutionary
Keep reblogging until it feels normal everywhere.
For context: this came out in 2011 in Australia. Same-sex marriage would not be legalized until December 2017.
It was only legalized in 8 US states (the 8th only a few months before), and wouldn’t be legalized nation-wide until 2015.
It was only legal in TEN COUNTRIES in 2011. We wouldn’t hit 20 countries until 2017. (Australia was 23rd)
As of today (April 14, 2026), I believe only 38 countries have fully legalized same-sex marriage. Out of somewhere around 200 countries in the world. That’s only ~19% of countries.
This is still revolutionary.

King Arthur in Camelot Rock-Opera (May 2026) for @melkormajere
How shall I judge fair? Yield not to power? How shall I yet dare Stay true to my soul? No, no remorse still. I shall not back down. Out of my free will I resolve now to Power's burden Is weighing me down more time and again, Day after day. Power's burden! The will of the crown is stronger than men, Much stronger than me.
Something neuroscience-y that helps with prose: attention is selective. A character will not notice everything in a room. They will notice what matters to their goal, fear, desire, training, wound, or obsession. A jealous character notices hands. a hungry character notices food. A soldier notices exits. A lonely character notices pairs. Description becomes character when attention has a bias.
