#only love and light here in the barad-dur office 😇

[saurons-pr-department]

Well, since a grand total of two people have expressed a need for nonsense here's a whistle stop tour of the kinds of things I start and then delete and we should all be grateful for it. Let this be a lesson to ye:

Silmarils must take the form of those throat lozenges with the gooey centre otherwise they could just be glorified grow lamps

A whole thing on Morgoth and Sauron, Sauron and Saruman and Saruman and Grima but I only half remember my point...

A whole thing about Saruman

Nearly this post

How unfair it is the I can't actually fuck Sauron or Maeglin or Caranthir or Thuringwethil or Haleth or you get the idea

But like, especially Sauron. Lads you have no idea how many Sauron thoughts I have. But like, none of them are building on anything. It's literally just “he's my special little guy 🥰” No substance. Delete

That one post where I make a joke about the theological implications of me and Sauron greeting each other in Irish. I think that one was too niche. Delete

On a vaguely related note, my suspicion at how people constantly bring up Tolkien being Catholic as an “of course he'd have terrible awful no good opinions”. Loads of you are literally Protestant. Stop

Why is it the second I post about Maeglin people in my notes suddenly feel the need to remind me how awful he is??? Did I ask you???

Actually, there are frequent deeply annoyed by unnecessary hand wringing posts that I just delete

So many posts about loving villains because they are entertaining and I think they should do more bad things 🥰 (No seriously, I hope they eat your sweet little fav's heart right out of their chest)

My deep desire to look Aragorn in the eye and somehow snap his sword in half. And then maybe punch him in the face? (he annoys me deeply XD)

My excitement everytime someone mentions my url in my notes. As in mentioning that it particularly matched or clashed with the topic of the post. It makes me giggle everytime

There's definitely been lots of puns and similar caliber jokes that I decide last minute not to inflict on ye. Can't think of any examples right now though

Autistic Mairon and Maeglin thoughts

My frequent desire to kick in the teeth of whoever greenlit the Harfoots' accent

Actually plenty of thoughts on the show and how I feel it really falls down, not only as an adaptation, but also just on regular story telling and appears to be trying to be a few too many things that don't mesh. But I'm opting for pretending it doesn't exist and am happier in fandom for it

Every so often I remember Ha 🤢 Hal 🤢 Halbr 🤢 That Guy exists and want to make my complaints other people's problems. Obviously never posted because I'm here to have fun and not be a downer

I've definitely deleted more than one post because I second guess if I'm using a meme format right XD

Similarly, I frequently delete attempts at analysis/meta because there are so many people here who know so much more than me and I always second guess my understanding of what I've read (or my memory of it)

Dagor Dagorath Thoughts TM

Random reminders that I love Orcs 🥰

My surprise and curiosity that several people who seem very picky about their Sauron interpretations/Silm interpretations or fanon in general follow me. How was I not one of the people you block on sight?

Ye should probably count yerselves lucky that I delete most posts I start writing before I ever post them. There's a lot less of my nonsense to put up with
