There are so many amazing Japanese artists on here, some who have been here since the very beginning, who don't get as many likes as they should because bsky is actively hiding their posts from everyone if they don't have English words in their posts! Please help JP artists by turning this off! 🙌

one good thing coming out of AI bullshit i guess

Very very excited to share this conversation I had with @tolkienpop.substack.com about my work for Tea with Tolkien and my forthcoming book, Into the Heart of Middle-earth! You can listen to the full interview here: open.substack.com/pub/tolkienp...

Speaking of OCs, I think everyone should snag this file from my ko-fi and put their OCs in it 🫵

The irony of naming a security platform "Sauron" is that the Eye does not in fact see everything. If it had, LotR would have been very different and very short.

The #NumenorFaithfulCalendar project is the brainchild of @islandofnumenor.bsky.social and @jobot935.bsky.social that started with a couple of bleets, and took off into this very ambitious project. We hope you'll support it and help us raise some funds for underprivileged kids along the way. #TROP

Meeting of the minds.

This was likely the inspiration for the movie quote “Even the smallest person can change the course of the future” And while the sentiment is similar, I am rather fond of the original for how it contextualizes the collective actions of many who were overlooked in the grander history

c🅾️mmissions open! through DMs here also in VGen

Fellow artists, if you’re able to, I can attest that opening some charity commissions keeps you motivated and focused, in both your craft and mental well-being. You’ll be raising funds for people in need, and seeing the support from a community that cares for the same causes you do.

My bugs are at my pet sitter and I miss them wehhh

New art contest! 🔥 TrueRef is hosting an art contest to design our first t-shirt. It felt more fun than a normal contest, so here we are! ✨ Prizes: $500 // 1 Year TrueRef+ // Free Shirt ✨ Ends: March 5th ✨ No weird thing that says we own all submitted designs. Info: trueref.io/pages/truere...

If I may add in this way. The reason why I do the second installment of the @fe3hgenderfuckery.bsky.social zine rn is precisely that. I'm not well. I'm not in a place where I can make zines. But I do it nonetheless because it fights off the dread of the world and adds something positive to it.

Anyone done any work on comparisons between evil spirits comin from the Northeast direction in some East Asian esotericism & Tolkien’s penchant for having the realms of the Dark Lord(s) in similar areas? #Tolkien #Luinelle

I cannot emphasize enough the importance of finding one constructive real world offline thing you can do to use your particular skills in service of fighting fascism as a psychological defense against the constant drumbeat of fuckery

Something that's been bothering me for a while that I'm not really sure what the *consequence* is: I so hate when people equate LA to being white and wealthy because they only see Hollywood celebrities and influencers who live that lifestyle. LA is very, very, very Latino and Black and Asian

reminder that if you just saw something traumatic or disturbing, playing some tetris can help avoid intrusive memories of it from reoccurring

Yes they made it as a cheap way to retain film rights, the Dunlendings and Haradrim were still not given narrative justice, why did the choose to do a human story when they aren’t bound by the limitations of live-action, etc But also consider: Hot Fréaláf 🔥

The War of the Rohirrim is not without its flaws, but in retrospect props to it for adapting a minor Legendarium story, expanding on a female character given little canon narrative, and not relying heavily on returning actors

People keep telling me they're "not good enough to submit" - I say, we don't gatekeep skill levels. Sure, I use the books to scout for artists to hire/forward projects to, but our goal is to *encourage people to celebrate nature*. This is why I insist on having kid & amateur artists each season.

Need them to drop new Elrond pics that is literally all I want
