@ahsnazg this is the original Crablor post. My reblog above is the first ever mention of the name Crablor

Do we actually know what happened to Maglor after he chucks his Silmarill into the ocean? I've been trying to find out but about all I can find is that he walks down the beach ever to be heard from again. Like, is that it? Does he die at some point that we know of and I'm just missing something?

As far as I know there is no information in any of Tolkien’s works about what happened to Maglor after that, and there is certainly no canon evidence that he dies or sails to Valinor, hence all the fics where Maglor is still around during the War of the Ring or in our modern world.

Maglor is a cryptid, and that is canon

How the fuck did Nephrology escape from being one of the areas known for attracting crazy people. These guys are insane. What the fuck.

#people who think internal medicine is the normal ones have never worked in internal medicine #i used to think endocrinology had some well-adjusted people but it takes a special level of insane to suffer a specialty that’s 90 % DM1 #cardio is insane but everyone knows cardio is insane #have you ever called a cardiologist to ask a question?

People talk about the surprise albums from people like Taylor Swift or Beyoncé that drop with zero warning but I have just been existing in this world where every album I've ever heard in my life has been a surprise album because I didn't know that musicians had schedules that we could see

honestly really sexy of tumblr to keep follower numbers private. how many people are following me? you'll never know unless I tell you. maybe it's a million, or a thousand, or five, or maybe it's just you. maybe you're the only one here, all by yourself, unable to see if there's anyone standing next to you.

and you'd never know, because status here is based on opinion and not numbers; how popular you think someone is is a vibes-only calculation, and besides the chronological algorithms-optional feed, it's genuinely the best thing tumblr's ever done.

My answer on the IRL vs. online poll is deeply influenced by the fact that people on this website know that I write elf fanfiction and people IRL only know that I’m a medical doctor

ok im really curious do you guys have books you consider your "white whale"? as in books you keep telling yourself oh yeah i really want to read that, but you keep not reading it?

i think an uncomfortable truth is that there is an inherent arrogance one has to overcome after spending too much time alone, which is not so obvious when it's forced (i.e. through ostracism) because the assumption is that someone who has been ostracized is more likely to lack confidence and thinks poorly of themselves. but then there's this dance between victimhood and low self-esteem yet also subconsciously believing that your own view or daily decisions are "correct" or "better" because you've never had anyone tell you otherwise, because you've been alone. and in addition have gotten used to being extremely independent and considering others' input doesn't even occur to you. so when others DO provide feedback, it's almost jarring, like you don't have a behavioral pathway with which to respond or receive the feedback so you just respond with irritation because your system is confused

The Norwegian translation of "Baggins" is "Lommelun", which approximately translates to "warm/cozy pocket" and I think that's a very adorable Hobbit name.

THE ONLY THING OUR CIVILISATION CAN EVER LEARN FROM YOURS IS THAT WHEN OUR BACKS ARE TO THE WALL AND OUR TOWERS ARE FALLING ALL AROUND US AND WE ARE WATCHING OURSELVES BURN WE RARELY BECOME HEROES.
