if i had a nickle for every time a pair in the middle earth legendarium defied a dark lord, saved each other by song, lost a limb, and got rescued by the eagles, i would have three nickles which isn't a lot but it's funny that two of the most queer-coded relationships get paralleled to tolkien's 'ultimate ideal of a romance' couple like this twice it happened thrice

also can people write something other than the yaoi. obv it’s inevitable and i have nothing against shipping Two Guys™ who clearly have some kind of tension between them but please. there’s so much potential. can i please get a good angst fic that is not about these two pining.
oh sure just completely misinterpret one of the most important parts of the story and also the main character’s relationship to it. “bro was doomed by the narrative” bro was the main driver of the narrative what are you talking about!! “he had no choice in the matter, he was forced to do it” he chose to do it knowing full well what would happen and why. and, my personal favorite: “he was too young to choose, it was child abuse” we are talking about a thirty year old man

Y E S oh my goodness i’m so happy. voyager 1 is still going. we haven’t lost her yet. YES
Y'all, the world is sleeping on what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1
The probe has been sending gibberish science data back to Earth, and scientists feared it was just the probe finally dying. You know, after working for 50 GODDAMN YEARS and LEAVING THE GODDAMN SOLAR SYSTEM and STILL CHURNING OUT GODDAMN DATA.
So they analyzed the gibberish and realized that in it was a total readout of EVERYTHING ON THE PROBE. Data, the programming, hardware specs and status, everything. They realized that one of the chips was malfunctioning.
So what do you do when your probe is 22 Billion km away and needs a fix? Why, you just REPROGRAM THAT ENTIRE GODDAMN THING. Told it to avoid the bad chip, store the data elsewhere.
Sent the new code on April 18th. Got a response on April 20th - yeah, it's so far away that it took that long just to transmit.
And the probe is working again.
From a programmer's perspective, that may be the most fucking impressive thing I have ever heard.

if you've ever used the London Underground you might have noticed that it often gets uncomfortably hot. the reason for this is actually that its builders dug too greedily & too deep and as a result the trains are very close to the fires of hell. hope that helps.

how do you show someone you care about them if you never talk and you never see them and you can’t send anything to them and you live on the other side of the world and they’re dealing with so much more than you’ve ever had to live through but more than anything you want to feel their heartbeat and have them feel yours because they’re the only person you’ve let see the depths of your soul (but you’re too chicken to dive to the depths of theirs)

Corn dogs are named for their traditional meat, the unicorn. As unicorns are now extinct, they can only be referred to properly as ‘Corn Dogs and not “Unicorn Dogs” as they were prior to 2009.

One thing I love about the Silmarillion is that because it’s so massive, its fans have to specialize.
Like I love everything but my Silm major is in Finrod studies, with a minor in obscure background characters.
Reblog this post with your Silmarillion “speciality,”
