There's also Walk To Mordor, which is a free app that rewards you with little excerpts from the books for reaching destinations along the path to Mordor! It's not flashy or fancy, but obviously made with love. I've been using it to motivate me to use my bike more, and have been tracking my distances on it.

I think there should be nerdy gyms and I’m not even joking about that.

the next level of did you know viggo mortensen broke his toe when he kicked the helmet and is actually also screaming in pain there: did you know sean bean taped the script to his knee because they only gave him the script that morning and you can see him looking down when he says one does not simply walk into mordor

#sean bean #boromir #lord of the rings #the lord of the rings #lotr #one does not simply walk into mordor #one zoom to rule them all #viggo #viggo mortensen #viggo my fav actor of all time

This little app has been helping to bring daily doses of endorphins.

Goal is to make it to Mordor by January 31, 2024. 24 miles down, 1756 to go!

They need a running app for this like they have for Lord of the Rings, which is called Walk to Mordor, so you can pretend to walk the same journey as Jonathan!

idk if its being recirculated this year but last year there was a post where someone calculated how far jonathan went to get from drac's castle to the train station and it was like over 150 miles. barefoot through the woods. yeah id be deranged too

Oh my god? Jonathan how on earth are you even alive

Also it's still very funny to me when I say "I like Rings of Power" and someone sees it and says I'm not a true fan of Tolkien's works and must not know anything about his writing and then I post a picture of my bookshelf. Never gets old.

#Like yeah dogs are my special interest but also #This is OG special interest #Literally the reason I'm on the internet in the first place is because I joined lotr fan forums when I was 12 #Lying about being 13 #No one at my school liked it but plenty of strangers on the internet were happy to talk incessantly with me about the color of legolas' hai #Or whether or not the eagles could have flown them to mordor #Who else would have giggled with me about that 15 minute long gif of boromir talking about walking into mordor #I've been here for twenty damn years and I will not be chased off by some jerks who think they're better than anyone else #Because they've been sucking the toes of PJ and WB #I was there Gandalf #I was there when you were a loser if you admitted to liking the movies #It's the same arguments recycled again and again #Meanwhile I'm the omg two cakes guy #Omg more Tolkien stuff??? Sign me the fuck up I'm always willing to go back to middle earth wym you don't like it

I love when academics are clearly having fun. I also like when they dedicate an entire chapter to roasting the opinions of the guy whose lecture series I just listened to.

#I am a spectator in the colosseum yelling FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT #the secret gospel of mark #one does not simply walk into Mordor #op

so @nereb-and-dungalef and i were trying to make the geomorphology of Mordor make sense, as one does - or rather, as one fails to do, since orogenic processes do not tend to favor Rectangular Box of Mountains. but even if you chalk Mordor's shape up to Ainur activity, you'd think that Sauron would have taken pains to make his mountains form a better box, if a box was what he wanted. and yet it's not a perfect quadrilateral. it hasn't even got proper right angles.

therefore, our solution: Sauron did have a perfect set of geometrically balanced mountain-walls surrounding a volcanic hotspot - once. however... geological processes can only be slowed so much by one guy. the earth still changes. the crust still deforms. mountains are uplifted and erosion carves them down. hotspots move. you can't freeze geology any more than you can embalm the world at large. you can't prevent change. (not a lesson Sauron is eager to learn.) so Mordor is neither the product of natural processes nor intentional design - it's the interface of conflict between both.

#i just think it's crunchy if mordor's very physicality is a representation of what sauron wants to make the world into vs the world refusing #you have to picture us walking around like the school of athens guys except in 105 degrees #also I Know the pace of geological change is off here. i know mordor has debated origins anyway. but humor me. shit gets weird w ainur #sauron #lotr #mordor #tolkien #arda geomorphology #skravler

how much fun was last night, the atmosphere, playoff hockey? "honestly, i haven't played in many rinks in playoffs in this league, but, like, just looking around, i don't think there's a better place to play hockey than boston, and it was amazing; the atmosphere and everything was really great last night." – JAKUB LAUKO ON PLAYOFF HOCKEY AT BOSTON

#hi hello yes i would die for him #he's a Bruins Baby Boy™#jakub lauko #boston bruins #bruins #love of my life light of my life sir i would walk to mordor eighty times over for you i would burn in the fiery pits of mount doom #nhledit #hockeyedit #nhl #hockey #j made a thing #yes i was too distracted by the little waves in his hair to focus on colouring this gif properly i'm not even sorry
