#Technically A Poll

[sillylotrpolls]

I adore fanmixes and playlists, and used to greedily download them during LiveJournal's heyday. Nowadays, yes, there's Spotify, but if you recall the glory days of LJ's Fanmixes community then you know it's not the same.

I still have some LotR ones saved, primarily focused on Hobbits as my main ship back then was Frodo/Sam. These days, I'd love some excellent Gimleaf recs... (hint, hint)

"Yuletide in the Shire" is an especial favorite of mine, even if I did think for years they were singing about "Christmas pies" and not Christmas pipes. (Clearly I just hit play and didn't bother to look at the clearly labled tracks.)

Follow-up to this poll about if the tumblr pyramid is an acceptable representation of the regular tetrahedron.

Sphere, pyramid, cube, and octahedron from tumblr. Dodecahedron and icosahedron made by @etirabys. Rhombicuboctahedron, rhombicosidodecahedron, and great rhombicosidodecahedron made by @anonymous-leemur.

The other shapes will be represented with the green semi-transparent images made by Wikipedia user Cyp using POV-Ray, at least for Round 1. Except for the sphere, as I cannot find that one.

PROBLEM

So I've gotten some submissions for Will and Eleven from Stranger Things, even though they're not related by blood they have a lot of sibling energy. I was totally fine with that and was going to add them.

BUT.

Now I've also got a submission for Jonathan and Will. Who are, in fact, blood-related canon siblings. I totally forgot about them though, and it seems Will and El are more populair. So... who do I add?

(if you use more than one just pick the one you say most often)

Experiment:

Reblog this post and add a poll of your own to the reblog. You can make it a poll about anything. Let's see how far it goes.

[reblogforsamplesize]

edit: to everyone saying "only half of these are candy" well then fine, pick a "sweet" or perhaps a "confectionery" instead

edit 2 since its such a massive issue: this poll says "candy" instead of "dessert" or another word that might fit better because it started out as just the lollipop hard candy and chocolate bar and i never changed the poll title. i cant change it now. please stop insulting my intelligence over a poll about emojis :)

edit 3: reblogs are now off because i didnt expect this to get as big as it did and i dont like the note spam of having big posts. thanks to everyone who voted (and wasnt rude about this poll)

tag where you're from if you want

No nuance you gotta pick one

Feel free to elaborate. Especially if you vote no

[sillylotrpolls]

Before voting, spin the wheel and get a Lord of the Rings character.

Not sure who your character is? You can look them up on this Tolkien Gateway character list, or just vote based on vibes.

For the purposes of the game, assume your vote is not "LaCE compliant." (That is, fucking an elf does not instantly mean marriage or death for that elf.)

Poll concept from @pollsnatural.

Evidence of tumblr's shape not being a tetrahedron.

[thoughts-rambles]

Diavolo had been showered with praise his whole life. Of course he was, he was the ruler of the Devildom! He had grown up being constantly loved by the people, he was royalty, and they would all love him appropriately. But oh, how he hated it. Sure, hed smile and nod when approached by the faceless demon who would love and compliment him for whatever reason. But he hated it. He hated that everyone would repeat the same sickening phrases, almost like a script, to get whatever they wanted from him. It was so stupid in his eyes; he was tired of it.

So why, when you complimented him, did his heart beat faster than usual? Why did he want to hear more; to have you hold his face and tell him everything you ever loved about him? Maybe it was because you truly saw him; not the scary tall demon, not the prince of Hell, not the rich and powerful man he was. You saw him as Diavolo. Maybe, he had truly learned what love felt like, and he was not going to let it get away from him.

He would do whatever it took to get any form of affection from you. He found himself taking extra care of himself in the morning, the tireless routine becoming almost exciting now. He would wait, a moment alone or even just a glance back at him, so that you'd smile at him and possibly even grace him with the sweet melody that was your accolades.

Sonic and Tails

So I've been getting a bunch of submissions for Sonic&Tails...

But my dad is saying, that a lot of people ship them. I, personally, have no idea, as I don't really play games like that. I don't really want to include anyone who's commonly thought to be in a relationship with eachother, even if it isn't strictly canon.

I've decided to let you guys decide.

no nuance ♥️
