idk i just feel like if you were actually attracted to women you’d be attracted to women in their default state not just exclusively in an outrageously plucked and preened one

like if you see a woman with body hair or whatever and go “ew that’s disgusting!!!” like you’re not attracted to women then bc women have stuff like that we’re born with it it’s literally normal and you think it’s disgusting

I’m choosing to believe him because I think there should still be mystery and adventure in the world

Okay I looked this one up. He said he talked to God, made up some songs, and lost nine kilos during his 20ish hours in the water. He was also completely nude when he was rescued.

he also ate some kind of stick

I love the idea that within half a day you're eating mystery sticks to survive

Frodo may be Bilbo’s actual adopted nephew, but Merry and Pippin are his younger cousins, and Sam is his old gardener’s son whose family he clearly has a soft spot for and who he taught to read and write, and Gimli is the son of one of his old adventuring friends, and Legolas is, similarly, the son of the Elvenking who named him an elf-friend, and we know Aragorn is canonically his friend as well, who he very possibly could have met as a small child in Rivendell when he passed through, so really, like 7/9 members of the Fellowship are people he can employ weird elderly relative (or the honorary equivalent thereof) energy on if he wants to and I think that’s very powerful.

the fellowship is 7 people who Bilbo Baggins can employ weird elderly relative energy onto PLUS 1 person who can employ weird elderly relative energy onto Bilbo Baggins PLUS Boromir.

does anyone else understand the very specific emotion that is just….. Lord of the Rings ?? like.. do you ever just think about it or imagine reading the books or something, and you just feel it… idk what else to call it other than the LotR emotion…

two kinds of people

the urge to get some sheep and keep them and collect wool from them and dye it and spin it into thread then weave it into fabric and then make clothes out of it all by mine own hand

I went to a county fair today and joined a spinners group and own enough land for a couple of animals and I feel like this is going to be the beginning of something great
