My best friend and I have a podcast and right now we are covering The Rings of Power.

I am so disappointed at the amount of negativity I am receiving from “Tolkien Scholars” who think that women don’t have the right to speak on anything Tolkien unless we can speak fluent elvish and have the Simarilion memorized.

Tolkien wasn’t written for you to gatekeep and leave rude, entitled comments about. Our podcast name is “Girls Nerd Out” and that seems to enrage them even more.

And I’ve read the Simarillion.

After all, I believe that legends and myths are largely made of 'truth', and indeed present aspects of it that can only be received in this mode; and long ago certain truths and modes of this kind were discovered and must always reappear.

I don’t know if you’ve done this or not but can you do silmarillion dividers please 🙏❤️

Hello - thanks for sending this in! I put together some based on my fave Silmarillion book art, and then a couple that just sort of had Tolkien vibes. The text is the One Ring, and then the beginning of the poem Namárië.

I hope you like these! 💕

people in lotr who i would punch in the face any day of the week:

note: again. am not an inherently violent person. i don’t regularly punch people. but here is a list of people who id thrown down with any day any time

feanor: selfish, narcissistic and a bratty kid that grew up into a bratty adult. was he a product of his bad upbringing? yeah, but he's still a prick. he's a very complex character but i'd still punch him. 9/10 for being the og "bad" guy

wormtounge: i mean if eowyn or gandalf doesn't get to him first. i have no qualms abt giving this guy a black eye. 11/10 and id love to run him over with a horse after

denethor: honestly the most punchable me out of any of them. i bet gondor would thank me for it, too. 14/10 watch me beat this senile man with his own cane.

saruman: saruman can send his crebains but nothing flies faster than these fists. again i am predisposed to punching wizards and this guy has got to be at the top of my hit list. 10/10 no one treats my babygirl gandalf that way

thranduil: i mean id immediately get sent to the dungeons but also i think someone would break me out. if not gimli, then legolas, bilbo, gandalf, or even elrond. 9/10 for punching, 19/10 for dumping a prized glass of red on his robes.

erestor: seems annoying, pretentious and stuck up. 9/10 come at me you little elf librarian twig

bill fearney: mistreating a pony that noble deserves a knuckle sandwich. 11/10, justice for bill the pony

I’ve been addicted to “The Harrowing “ by the amazing author @chthonion ! The muffin scene in chapter 8 had me cackling and so I had to draw it!

Overworked Blorbo Battle Round 1 Poll: 39

Since tumbling head first back into the Tolkien fandom, I’ve found myself once more obsessed with the question of Gil-Galad’s parentage. Now, The Simarillion states at least twice that GG is the son of Fingon - but even if we accept that there are still many entertaining possibilities left. Including:

Fingon’s son with his Noldor wife, who came over with him from Valinor and spent so much time at her craft that most elves honestly forgot she was their queen

Fingon’s son with his scandalously Avari wife, who he met in Beleriand and who died with him at the Battle of Unnumbered Tears

Fingon’s adopted son with Maedhros, whom he secretly married before they left Valinor/after his rescue from Morgoth

Fingon’s biological child with Maedhros, accidentally brought into being when Maglor and Finrod decided to have a rap battle in the room below their brother/cousin’s bedroom (no one ever asked Maglor or Finrod to come up with songs for a fertility festival again)

Fingon’s future son, born in the Fourth Age and sent back through time to ensure the Noldor have a king to stand against Sauron

Fingon’s stepson, fathered on Maedhros by Sauron during his captivity; and

Feanor, who (after some years spent roaming Middle Earth as a disembodied spirit) took over the body of a deceased elven child and was passed off as his nephew’s son to be back in line for high kingship.

Obviously at least half of these are crack, but the wheels are spinning. I’d love to see a Second Age where herald!Elrond does nothing but report the latest rumors about GG’s parentage to the high king and stir the pot when things get too dull. (Yes, there are a few, but there can always be more.)
