Sauron, Lord of the Rings

The season 2 finale drove me insane, I can't believe I'm watching the Sauron I know and love being his terrifying self in this amazing adaptation.

This was inspired by Jodie Muir's art!

A note to this fandom and those sending death threats to anyone that live here in the US.

The state's laws provide legal recourse for victims and hold perpetrators accountable for their actions. Under these laws, engaging in cyberbullying or cyberstalking can result in criminal charges, fines, and even imprisonment, depending on the severity of the offense.

I can't speak to other countries, but I do know in Brazil since January 12, 2024, have put into law consequences for cyberbullying.

Tumblr also has strict rules, Click HERE for a list of the violations.

So if you are getting death threat's REPORT IT.

How to report Cyberbullying on Tumblr

If you've had death threats, racist slurs, or threatening speech etc. slipped into your Ask box or in a post, you can report it in addition to blocking that person. There are Terms of Service (TOS) on Tumblr all users must abide by, and if you want these people to get thrown off Tumblr, REPORT IT.

Here is a link to Tumblr help: https://www.tumblr.com/support

If you get a hateful anonymous message, SAVE it for reporting to Tumblr. Because NOBODY IS REALLY ANONYMOUS on Tumblr. Tumblr staff will know exactly who they are, even if they are a side blog. Tumblr will have their original signup email as well. Their ISP will also be available to Tumblr staff, which means identity is not exactly anonymous to The Powers That Be.

Before you lose sight of the post, do a Control + Print Screen to capture a screenshot of the post and paste it to Word or notepad. Additionally, Tumblr is going to ask you for the link to the post, so you are going to go to the top right corner of the post and hover your mouse to where it says "view post" and click on that.  After the jump, copy the address in your browser bar and save that to Word or Notepad.

There will be a link for reporting it under this paragraph. When you click on it, you will be asked for:

·        The URL of the post you are reporting

·        A short description of the offensive material and why you are reporting it

·        Your name

·        Your email address.

You should hear back from Tumblr soon. Give it up to a week. (I'm not Tumblr staff; I am just going by personal experience on reporting bullying.)

ADDITIONAL STEPS TO TAKE:

Using the link that you saved, get a friend or several friends to report it as well.  You can shoot them a PM with the link address so they can see it and bear witness to what happened.  Also, it might make you feel better to know someone else knows about it and YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

"Gwyn is a child" arguments resurfacing again is my cue to take an indefinite break from engaging in fandom discourse here.

I'll just be reblogging stuff so don't mind me.

[yazthebookish]

The marketing for WICKED is 10/10.

[yazthebookish]

Why is the whole "Gwyn is a child" topic is being discussed again? Sarah killed it in May 2021 by confirming Gwyn is a "fully grown woman". She left no question about it.

Cassian calling her a girl is irrelevant because Rowan called Aelin both a girl and a child, that didn't stop him from ending up with her because we know Aelin is already almost an adult at 19.

Sarah retconned (which is not something new) the aging process of Fae in ACOMAF. The bat boys and Mor fought in the Great War in their mid-20s, are we to believe the Night Court is sending children as soldiers? Mor and Lady of Autumn were betrothed/engaged at 18, would SJM promote child marriages? Gwyn tells Nesta she didn't get a chance to lie with a male during the Great Rite, meaning she was already old enough to have sexual relations with others.

The books have enough hints that High Fae are already adults once they reach their 20s. If people didn't complain about Mor and the Bat Boys joining a war as "children" in their 20s, then there's no point in arguing about Gwyn's age over something that was retconned in ACOMAF not ACOSF.

Her being bubbly has nothing to do with maturity, if you don't have a bubbly adult in your life it's probably dull. Also, it's not like she's bubbly and unserious 24/7, she's vigilant about her work and is quite empathetic and helps Nesta understand her own feelings.

This argument has been dead for 3 years and a half, let's put it to rest.

In the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow

[yazthebookish]

No Gwynriel, Elucien, Elriel, Bryceriel, Neris, Vassien, Feysand, Nessian, and any character or ship people stan should be getting nasty messages or death threats.

Disagreements and arguments over fiction should always stick to fiction.
