#gollum: good

[marimbles]

the agony of enjoying MULTIPLE THINGS AT ONCE. How do people do it….

#part of me is like. ok is it actually the best move to just have separate sideblogs for every interest #cause I always feel weird and insecure abt being a multifandom blog. For some reason #I’m like aaa I’ll annoy people if I post things they’re not interested in! :( they’ll be disappointed in or frustrated in me! #and then the evil (read:normal) Kermit side of me is like girl it’s not that serious #you are not important enough for ppl to be worked up about your blogging habits lmao #if they’re annoyed they unfollow. swell. neato. #u can trust people to curate their own online experience. It’s not your job to post what they want you just do what you want. on ur own blog #do u follow #Sméagol me: yes ma’am #(I mentally switched to gollum instead of Kermit btw) #gollum me: it’s normal to like more than one thing. good even. and you will go through phases anyway #that’s life silly. You’ll have different moods at different times. and maybe completely different interests in the future #are you gonna make a new blog every time you enjoy something. #your interest are fluid but your identity is rooted in something beyond them. Right #you can just be a person who’s always changing but is also essentially the same. that’s humanity hun. do you understand #Sméagol me: yes #gollum: good #Sméagol: but also what if it’s hard to be friends with someone who has 3–4 interests #gollum: good grief

I swear to God I'm not trying to yuck anybody's artistic yum, but Gollum eats babies. Like, that's not a metaphor or anything: Gollum literally and canonically steals and devours human infants whenever he gets the opportunity. He goes out of his way to enter homes to eat babies. He is a literal baby-eating boogieman

bold of you to think that learning this wouldn’t make me like him even more

but really, lol, like… I know that? I already know that about him, I am familiar with different retellings of the source material even if I’m only just now reading the books. And I like that he’s done plenty of horrible things— it makes him more complicated as a character, strengthens that blend of pity and revulsion the reader and also other characters are intended to feel for him. He’s not a real person where I’d consider having eaten a human baby or two an actual turn-off from enjoying their company.

Also iirc it was, like, just a phase for him— when he ate people it was usually orc.

Another post just reminded me of an important PSA

Sokka is a better Ron Weasley and Xander Harris than Ron Weasley and Xander Harris ever were

Katara is a better Hermione Granger and Willow Rosenberg than Hermione Granger and Willow Rosenberg ever were

Zuko is a better Draco Malfoy than Draco Malfoy ever was canonically, but Spike is pretty great, even though yes, okay, we know, Zuko's redemption arc will always be superior

fight me

#harry potter #avatar the last airbender #buffy the vampire slayer #sokka is also superior to han solo #but we can't go around saying katara is better than leia even though she is #and it's also hard to say that zuko is better than darth vader even though he is #like luke skywalker is a very special boy; it's not fair to compare completely different canons why would you do that #sokka is not a better samwise gamgee than samwise; on that they're pretty even #is the katara equivalent in lotr legolas hahaha just the best at everything and severely OP I guess it's true #gollum is a pretty good darth vader!!! but still no zuko #gandalf is obviously the superior dumbledore but has sincere rivalry with iroh #who am i kidding no one beats iroh? #but gandalf and obi wan could have some pretty great tea with giles #who am i missing #oh emperor palpatine voldemort firelord ozai sauron who cares about them. The Mayor probably cares about them. That's who #lan wangji is the new legolas katara hermione leia pass it on

"Hard pass obviously but I wanted to suggest him if no one else had. I'm very sorry if someone has and maybe more sorry for making tgis submission at all. The current vote count on the luigi poll was distressing for me so I guess I wanted to sow more of that pain."

#gollum #lord of the rings #tumblr poll #smash or pass #i'm not giving him a good picture

[incorrect-lord-of-the-rings]

Pointing out "plot holes" in the Lord of the Rings to sound smart and superior is stupid because the plot holes are filled in by the author in both the Lord of the Rings and his other works. Literally if you don't like it because "they could have ridden the Eagles to Mordor" or "Legolas should have shot an arrow with the ring into Mount Doom" then read the books or even do the bare minimum by looking it up on google. Tolkien really took his work very seriously.

Literally what do you gain from trying to make Tolkien and his fans look stupid? My dude. You are digging thine own grave.

#sorry if im salty i keep getting recommended articles and videos about 'the lotr isn't as good as you think there's so many plotholes!!!' #like tell me you only watched the movies and only watced them once ever #a simple rewatch and/or a google search could clear up those answers but NO people want to be superior and different #if you are an asshole who is like this please eat a raw fish gollum style #lotr #lotr meme #lord of the rings #tolkien

Woke up this morning to find Gollum hanging from one of the mosquito screens by her front paw. No idea how long she was there but it was long enough for her to pee, and there was some blood around, so I'm really hoping the vet is open during the current holiday because I'd like her to get checked up

#Matt has a life #Shit from home #Animals #Cats #Gollum the cat #At least she's not panting anymore and she had a full tube of treat to help her calm down + cool down + hydrate #she is now hiding under the bed #which is also good because it means she can walk despite the pain

I for one am excited to watch Jughead descend into mystery solving madness over a mysterious beanie and three words his time traveling guardian angel girlfriend said that he managed to get written down before losing his memories

I have never been impressed by the low hanging fruit that is a trump impression but brennan has done it. the sheer glee I got from watching trump's mannerisms perfectly imitated to talk about lotr will last for a long time

#make some noise #it puts every other impression I've ever seen in the fucking ground #like liam o'brien as gollum levels of good

Prompt: sailor

I don’t think he sails, so here is Gollum on a paddle log. 

Sometimes I get around the ‘only night and underground lighting!’ thing by putting him outside at dawn or dusk where there’s some natural light... I think he was sometimes out with the hobbits in the early morning in LOTR and only starts freaking out when the sun is over the horizon. 

This here is probably evening, because his attitude is more of someone who’s lazily eyeing a candidate for second breakfast than someone who’s going to be panicking and fleeing the Yellow Face in the next few minutes. 

That bird is something called a ‘bar-tailed godwit’. I looked up UK-region marsh birds, saw that name, and decided that was the bird I wanted to use.

I want to finish this challenge up tomorrow so that on the 25th I can post a collection of the prompt art, so tomorrow two prompts will go up, and on the 25th two posts collecting the highlights of this challenge will go up. Tschuss!

#smaygol #gollum mermay 2023 #he has a frog in his mouth/hand #the filthy cannibal #animal death/ #I find it a little disappointing when adaptations just quietly drop Gollum's limitations on being in the light #because it's a big part of the character and how his corruption has affected his quality of life #but from a visual and logistic perspective i get it lol #Did u know that when he's in the dark #u can't see him????? #imagine if he paddled that log to valinor somehow #elf: frodo there is some little scavenger creature living on our beach and it screamed something about you when- #frodo: He Is Not My Problem Anymore Good Luck (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧
