A collection of my favourite tweets, thus far, on #SpitGate that Iām putting here for ease for my friends seeing
J.R.R. Tolkien: just a few female characters
George R.R. Martin: OK a few more female characters with POVs
Samantha Shannon:
I was recently inspired to draw a little comic based on a magnificent scene from The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon š I love this book so much!!
(hang in there Ead)
I love dollhouses and miniatures, so when I came across this little witchās cottage, I thought maybe youād like to see it, too.Ā
Adorable. Whoever made this is a very talented miniaturist.
Look at the details- even drying plants hanging from the ceiling. The most I can do is buy pre-made furniture and paint it.
Look at the fireplace.
Her bedroom upstairs. Notice her skulls and things in the chest.
Toads and lizards in the garden outside.
So I reopened my dating apps because my tarot deck said to
And then I matched this guy
So I was like "Ok I GOTTA message him"
THE RING WRAITH SAID TRANS RIGHTS
I think I'm in love.
I'll try to keep you updated, but if I stop posting I've run off to Mordor.
Small update:
He replies pretty slowly, but that's OK, I think I've got him.
I don't think he knows what to make of me
villainous-queer-deactivated202
Iām so invested in this romcom OP plEASE keep us posted.
It's been really slow
GUYS IM SWOONING
How the fuck do you have this much chemistry with a nazgul
I'm a BARD
"Because my tarot deck said you" do you think they were just like, "you gotta see this out, it's hilarious"?
To it's credit, I've also met a guy I really like. That just isn't funny.
GUYS
I THINK WE'RE GONNA DO THIS THING
Also I told him about you. Also I have cut out some parts of the Convo, but all the fun parts are here.
GUYS THIS IS HAPPENING
What do I WEAR?!
I could cry.
I have to announce a tragedy.
Naz Gƻl was kicked from Tinder before I got his number. I'm heartbroken. :(
HE FOUND ME!!!!!!!
Update: the date is set!
OK COOL BUT DID YOU GET TO HANG OUT??? HOW WAS IT
I NEED AN UPDATE, OH-NAZGUL-CHARMER
Working on it! :)
So we moved on over.
I apologize for the lack of updates, but this update has us to the present finally!
We have a schedule. Both our lives have been ABSURD over the duration of this story, and there's a lot of me and him in here.
A lot of folks seem to think that this is a romantic date? Pretty early on, Naz said that he wasn't looking for romance. And I am VERY Polyamorous, but not really looking for new folks right now.
Still! We're going to do this thing! We're going to meet, and we're going to take pictures (maybe even a video or two?) And you'll get to see it!
Today's the day
We opted for a coffee shop because of the rain, but I am here with coffee waiting.
Why am I so nervous? This isn't even a DATE date. We're bros. It's gonna be cool.
Any car could be Him, and I keep looking up at each one. Is he gonna show up in the costume? Is the weather cool for that? Is it in the wash?
Thankfully I did think of a cool line to say when he gets here.
Gotta be honest, I wish I had done a "Tap To See More" on this post all those months ago, scrolling is a pain.
There's a girl outside having an ANIMATED conversation about someone who wronged her friend and she is big mad. I am living for her. I want the best for her life. I will never speak to her.
Oh god oh fuck oh shit he's here, he pulled up. How do I look? Is there anything in my teeth? Act cool, Guin, act cool
Holy fucking shit
In an effort to avoid supporting megacorporations, I shall now be posing questions directly to tumblr that I would otherwise have googled.
If Mayonnaise is just eggs and oil, why it creamy?
Because it's also evil
Thanks!
Have scientists figured out what dark matter is yet?
Yup! Itās anything that takes up space, has mass, and is goth.
Wow!
What happens if you eat 23 packages of peeps?
You meet god
Thank goodness!
What's the correct way to eat a banana?
Whole, in one gulp.
Delicious!
Who is the Muffin Man?
Father of the Muffin Boy
Makes sense!
Why is my car making a ker-klunk noise?
Car's haunted
Uh Oh
How to fix a haunted car?
Slam into a priest in a crosswalk going at least forty miles an hour
It worked!
Where does the wax in scented candles go?
into the sky, where it turns into stars
Cool!
Why are weddings so damn expensive?
priest has to pay for medical bills related to haunted car crashing into him
....Ah
The "If you were over 6 feet tall and living in Wellington in 2001 you didn't have a choice my dude" is killing me, like I'm just picturing the LOTR casting directors running around Wellington with a measuring tape, black-bagging tall guys and shoving them into vans.
"You're a Lord of the Rings extra now."
"No! Please! I have a family! I'm supposed to work the closing shift at the Pita Pit tonight!"
"You serve at the pleasure of the Steward of Gondor now."
i think about this one so fucking often i had to clip it
i just really like titular character piranesi and passages like this make my heart ache
"And for those of us from communities with historic collective trauma, we must understand that each of us is already science fiction walking around on two legs. Our ancestors dreamed us up and then bent reality to create us." Walidah Imarisha, Octavia's Brood: Science Fiction Stories From Social Justice Movements
The premise for Star Trek Discovery is so funny, like imagine if a viking longship showed up today and then fixed global warming and undid Brexit
Except, of course, for a recent Ā invitation to dinnerĀ at the captainās cabin, for which I have been encouragedĀ by Lieutenant OrtegasĀ to dust off my dress uniform.
