Having dug out the Unfinished Tales to reference a conversation Tolkien wrote between Gandalf and Pippin (but didn’t publish) I thought I’d share it. Gandalf is talking to Pippin about the history of Thorin’s company, hobbits and why he chose Bilbo.

This is evidence for the grand statement I just made about how Bilbo was intended to be a catalyst that changed his society, and that hobbit society was indeed significantly different after his journey, with large social changes occurring between The Hobbit and Fellowship. But it’s also a very funny passage to me so here it is:

‘And then there was the Shire-folk. I began to have a warm place in my heart for them in the Long Winter, which none of you can remember.

They were very hard put to it then: one of the worst pinches they have been in, dying of cold, and starving in the dreadful dearth that followed. But that was the time to see their courage, and their pity one for another. It was by their pity as much as by their tough uncomplaining courage that they survived. I wanted them still to survive.

(😭😭😭😭. Also the theme of having pity for each other is what redeems both Bilbo and Frodo re: Gollum.)

But I saw that the Westlands were in for another very bad time again, sooner or later, though of quite a different sort: pitiless war.

(This is possibly one reason why this passage didn’t make it to publication - Gandalf shouldn’t have had this much foreknowledge of the upcoming war of the ring.)

To come through that I thought they would need something more than they now had. It is not easy to say what. Well, they would want to know a bit more, understand a bit clearer what it was all about, and where they stood.

(It’s also explaining that Bilbo’s role in Thorin’s company was predetermined both by a more omnipotent Gandalf and by Fate; that Gandalf selected Bilbo to be a social catalyst, to return and provoke hobbit society into a more adaptable, resilient state; therefore increasing their chances of surviving.)

They had begun to forget: forget their own beginnings and legends, forget what little they had known about the greatness of the world. It was not yet gone, but it was getting buried: the memory of the high and the perilous. But you cannot teach that sort of thing to a whole people quickly. There was not time.

(Thus Bilbo was supposed to be changed, and return changed by his journey, to teach his people.)

And anyway you must begin at some point, with some one person. I dare say he was “chosen” and I was only chosen to choose him; but I picked out Bilbo.’

‘Now that is just what I want to know,’ said Peregrin. ‘Why did you do that?’

‘How would you select any one Hobbit for such a purpose?’ said Gandalf. ‘I had not time to sort them all out;

(He is SO funny)

but I knew the Shire very well by that time, although when I met Thorin I had been away for more than twenty years on less pleasant business. So naturally thinking over the Hobbits that I knew, I said to myself: “I want a dash of the Took” (but not too much, Master Peregrin)

(This is brilliant we are always BODYING pippin constantly. NOT TOO MUCH TOOK 👀. We were ROBBED not having this in canon )

“and I want a good foundation of the stolider sort, a Baggins perhaps.” That pointed at once to Bilbo.

(Eugenics! Observing them like laboratory mouse lines! Call him a Charles River BILB/o the way you’re genotyping these poor little bastards for your purposes)

And I had known him once very well, almost up to his coming of age, better than he knew me.

(??? Hiding in the bushes spying or…?)

I liked him then. And now I found that he was “unattached” – to jump on again, for of course I did not know all this until I went back to the Shire. I learned that he had never married. I thought that odd, though I guessed why it was; and the reason that I guessed was not the one that most of the Hobbits gave me: that he had early been left very well off and his own master.

(Was it cos he’s gay as fuck, Gandalf)

No, I guessed that he wanted to remain “unattached” for some reason deep down which he did not understand himself – or would not acknowledge, for it alarmed him.

(I 100% now and for always love a narrator in a constant state of Just Fucking Lies To Everyone All The Time, Giving Us Nothing, Acknowledging Nothing Including Himself. NOPE NOT PROCESSING ANYTHING TODAY THANKS. WE’RE CLOSED. COME BACK TOMORROW. just A Massive Liar about everything and for what!!! Bilbo Baggins my beloved you were born wrong.)

He wanted, all the same, to be free to go when the chance came, or he had made up his courage. I remembered how he used to pester me with questions when he was a youngster about the Hobbits that had occasionally “gone off ”, as they said in the Shire. There were at least two of his uncles on the Took side that had done so.’

You can see why I love this! And I can see why Tolkien didn’t include it, too. Still very fun passage and near enough to canon to be used if you ever want to.

KpyTA9I Mu3bIKa: The Third

Ну что же, вот �� подошёл конец нашей мэшапной деятельности. Мы с командой (Кириллом Чубриковым и Дмитрием Альтерсом) смогли за 2024 год сделать столько мэшап-микстейпов, что и нельзя сосчитать. Только вот мне кажется, что я сам мало сделал мэшапов. Так например я для "KpyTA9I My3bIKa vol. 2 " сделал 3 мэшапа. Первые два мэшапа такие-себе, а третий "Kanye +1" — это мой самый лучший мэшап, который я когда-либо создавал. Для "KpyTA9I My3bIKa Deluxe" я вообще только один мэшап сделал, "CITRUS WALKS!", но он вроде у меня вышел хорошо, а вот к "KpyTA9I My3bIKa vol. 3" я подошёл не серьёзно и склепал только 2 мэшапа, которые как по мне, получились отвратительными. Мне и до этого казалось, что я что-то не выходит, но у меня были получше работы Я могу лишь только извиниться перед своими ПРЕДАННЫМИ слушателями, но я уже ничего с этим не поделаю.

В 2025 году я буду исправляться и хоть что-то делать, а не мэшапы для микстейпов, которые мне, как и всему Balbes Club'у уже не в комильфо. Буду делать новые видеоролики, только вот я всё думаю, создавать новый канал или снимать всё по прежнему на основном канале, ведь меня всегда притягивает всё начинать с чистого листа. Также к 2025 году планирую научиться писать музыку, которая будет разрывать все шаблоны, которые только есть: научусь играть на всех имеющихся и не имеющихся музыкальных инструментах, и вместо оркестра буду один всё играть, буду петь женским хором, буду короче как Тайлер Креатор, а потом прославлюсь на весь мир, хапану звезду и всем буду говорить, что я самый крутой и лучше меня никого нет.

Дорогие читатели, хочу вас поздравить с наступающим Новым 2025 годом и пожелать, чтобы он был куда лучше 2024 года!

I have painted this fish many times as a background character, chased by hippocampi, or transforming gloriously into a Missouri dragon, but now I’ve promoted him. He has a job. He can’t complain because the job affords him the hat.

For some reason they let me put this on inprnt, so if you want a print I’m having a sale for a week. https://www.inprnt.com/gallery/phantomfirefly/this-trout-is-employed/

The code I made is the very memorable ESVGGVU

I watched Anyaustins’s employment rate series while making this and I can safely say this fish is:

Go watch it
