hey! are you still doing the doodle prompts? because if you are you should totally do one where Fili's giving Gytha something he knitted for her as thanks for her making him a new leg!

What a coincidence--Fili does actually knit her something as thanks for the new leg and it happens to be a shiny new pair of gloves!

The leg in question (from 2020):

For those of you not in the know, some backstory:

I headcanon Fili as having lost his leg during BoFA and, while he was recovering, Ori taught him how to knit. Since then, he's become a quite a skilled knitter, as it helps distract him from the worries of being a crown prince.

Gytha, meanwhile, is an Ironfist. And my Ironfist headcanons are that they and the Durins do not get along (I think I got it from one of the old LotR ttrpg games?) and that the skin of the Ironfists' hands are actually metallic, like...well, iron and it allows them to grab red-hot metal from the forges barehanded and whatnot.

The thing about Gytha, though, is that she's an exiled Ironfist and she does her best to keep her hands covered at all times so as to not let anyone know she's an Ironfist except when she's making prosthetic limbs or repairing things in the smithy.

The best piece of advice I ever got was not meant as advice, but as an edict. If I was going to threaten people as a joke, it had to be so far out of proportion with what happened that it would be obvious I was joking. This changed how I expressed frustration with others. It then changed how I expressed frustration with myself.

Not “I’m going to hit you” but “I am going to buy a tuna sub from the gas station and hide it under the seat of your car”

Not “I’m going to kill myself” but “I am going to walk into the desert and let the scarabs take me”

The other side then happened. When I mess something up, instead of saying it’s bad and perpetuating negative thoughts, swing hard the other way.

Not “this art is terrible” but “this shall be framed and mounted on the wall in my museum exhibition as testament to the suffering I had to overcome”

Have been doing this since high school. It was my drama teacher who asked me to please stop scaring the actors. The other half of the edict was that I had to say it in a polite tone, and end it with either please or thank you.

Life changing. 10/10 Mr Muëller. Highly reccomend.

hbomberguy’s latest video on plagiarism has made me completely rethink literature and writing. I have never once so much as considered intentionally plagiarizing anyone or anything, but I think there’s something more that has come out of this: the names of the people who created the works Somerton (and others) ripped off.

Plagiarism isn’t only bad because it is lazy and disrespectful, it’s bad because it buries the truth. If you can’t find a source, the conversation is over. Somerton’s sources are fairly easy to find by simply searching his plagiarized lines, but that isn’t true in most cases. Most of the time, the line from statement to source is a lot less clear.

Today, I was writing a report on English Ivy, which is an invasive species here in the US. I wanted to know when it was introduced and I at last found a source claiming it was introduced to the Americas “as early as 1727” on a .net website that seems quite reputable (it has multiple major universities credited in its home page), but there is no citation for where this date came from. I dug deeper and found a pamphlet created by a city government in Virginia that made the same claim, only to discover the first source linked in their bibliography. Another website (a botanical garden’s page) gave the same date with the same source hyperlinked. Of course, I have classes to attend and things to do and probably not enough time to follow the lines back to where this 1727 date came from, but if I had not just watched this video, I wouldn’t have given that date a second thought.

Of course, it doesn’t matter in the long run exactly what year hedera helix was introduced to the Americas, but it makes you wonder how many facts have been so vaguely attributed that it becomes completely impossible to figure out where they originated (and further, whether or not they’re true at all).

When I followed you earlier today and then realized this blog wasn't even two days old it made me feel like I invested in a startup.

Do you think if you did the lyrics for Fireflies by Owl City, your database would give us fireflies? (Will also accept owls. And there's a line about sheep too).

For the doodle prompt idea, would it be possible Gytha running with Nori ? ( like maybe they stole something together and now they are running away from the person they stole ? ) Have a great day !

Normally, Gytha isn't really the thieving type...however, when she meets Nori in my fanfic, Azying, she's being held prisoner (along with Fili, Ori, and human!Baylee) and Nori ends up helping her steal her headdress back as they break out of the place. Thus, this really fun picture was born~!

And yes, he did steal that baby. Yes, he keeps the baby, who he names Zori. No, the baby is not a dwarf.

Hello! I've been rereading the Let Us Dwell series (the most perfect Steddie series to ever exist) and I always wanted to ask you both about Steve and Will. I am endlessly fascinated by Will's vendetta against Steve/his unfair comments, especially considering how important Steve is to the other kids. Does Will ever get over it? (Especially after Eddie and Steve get together).

Hey! So sorry this took so long for me to answer -- it's been kind of a wild time in my life. thank you so much for reading and for sending me this <3 it really means a lot that people are engaging with this fic, even almost a year after we wrote the first installment.

@sparklyslug got asked this back in september and answered it perfectly (as she always does with that beautiful brain of hers), which you can read here.

god I'm so fucking furious at the removal of Te Reo Māori names from organisations around Aotearoa. it's a complete non-issue, every organisation has the English name directly underneath the Māori name. I have never once as an English speaker been unable to understand what an organisation is for. Winston Peters, the Deputy Prime Minister, who is literally Māori himself, said “Te Papa is a historic name but tell me this waka kotahi, how many boats have you seen going down the road?”. Waka does not just mean canoe. it means vessel, and waka kotahi (the transport agency of Aotearoa) explains this VERY SIMPLY on their official website. waka kotahi means to travel together as one. Can you see how fucking upsetting this is. A Māori person in power who is in agreement about banning his own language, being so cocky about something that he does not even understand due to the suppression of the language of his people. It makes me sick. I've seen reports from Māori people all over Aotearoa speaking out about how upset and furious they are, how decades of progress have been undone in the fight to restore the rights of their people who have for so long been oppressed and have suffered the effects of colonisation. Please share this if you can, I hate knowing how few people will hear about this, I know there is so much injustice in the world right now and it is so exhausting, I know. I love you all, keep it up.
