was thinking about pippin today (who's surprised)

and i recalled the scene where gandalf and pippin are riding for gondor, and pippin is asking gandalf about the palantirs and the history of gondor, and gandalf gets tired of answering questions so he tells pippin basically "how many questions are you going to ask kid geeze," and pippin gives a very satire response by replying that he wants to know about every plant and every human and the entire history of middle earth blah blah blah.

that scene means so much to me because (to me) it seems obvious that pippin recognizes he is a curious and reckless hobbit.

obviously in movies its very difficult to show a character's perspective and thought process, so the best you can do is try to express as much as you can through facial expressions and dialogue. that's probably why pippin seems, well, "smarter" in the books. because you know what he's thinking.

to me, pippin is not a silly hobbit who makes too many mistakes. he's very curious and sometimes that curiosity comes with consequences. yes, in the books, he purposefully throws a stone down the well in balin's tomb, just cause he felt it was necessary. it definitely wasn't smart of him to look in the palantir, but for goodness sakes the poor boy was traumatized for the rest of his life because of it. palantirs are powerful seeing stones, so yeah no wonder this curious young hobbit wanted to look into a stone that could show him other places around the world. when sauron got into pip's head, PIPPIN TOLD HIM NOTHING!!! because he knew he needed to protect frodo and sam. he swore to everyone that he would never touch a palantir again. if every palantir was laid at his feet, he promised he would close his eyes and look away.

these are not the actions and promises of a "dumb, annoying" hobbit. the things pippin did in the war of the ring changed the outcome significantly. i could say SO MUCH MORE about this, too. the fellowship needed pippin as much as they needed everyone else.

"Tell your favorite creators that you like their work, people usually enjoy things silently, but hate tends to be loud"

This is a phrase I just heard from Dnd shorts that captures perfectly why I often try to make the effort of commenting on posts and telling people that I enjoy their work and why Even to small creators, I advice everyone to make the extra effort to tell them, I can guarantee it makes all the difference in the world, it's not cringy or obnoxious, it'll just brighten someone's day

How to do interior decorating

Seals go on counter, next to the bread

The bread loaf helps them feel at home

Seal can be placed on the floor from time to time just to spice things up

Be sure to charge seal's batteries regularly so they do not power down unexpectedly

To change seal use the release switch under the upper right flipper to expose the charging port

With proper maintenance and care you too can have a fine kitchen seal that brings great aesthetic and fun to your home

Imo the best ending to Supernatural would have been to just stop with them alive on a random hunt or them finding jobs and living the life they just wanted or whatever.

And then the story just fucking STOP, because Chuck is not here anymore, so they are no longer part of a story they are finally free. And we could still write and read fanfic about how they live after they won.
