A story about Tom Bombadil where Lord of the Rings happens in chapter 7

Some account claiming to be making an unfollow tracker tried to follow-farm me the other day, and I can’t think of a thing I want less than to know who unfollows me. Thats a normal thing for someone to do, and it’s not my business!

Ok I made a few postcards after all :3

Humans are just busy work, God's real passion is crabs.

I wanted to make a themed Westmoot design! Since it's in Minneapolis this year, what better than with a loon and the Minnesota state flag, but with the Star of Earendil ;) These will be available at the con as stickers! #art #Tolkien

i made a quick Jumping Spider Basic Pose Guide!! 🕷️🕸️🌈 It doesn’t cover everything but I hope it helps ppl understand their basic poses! Spiders dont like to bite humans & usually only do as a last resort, so they give lots of warnings! Pls treat all spoods ethically and always use caution :) 🕸️

I could NEVER leave this goofy little twerp behind 💥🚀🐸🪐

Someone told me lately "Bluesky is just like Twitter." I argued that was untrue on the basis that last time I had a Twitter account most times I got a new follower their bio said "single & looking for fun" & here when I get a new follower it tends to say something like "professor of rare moths".

Kicking off the Maiar Series with Mairon, The Admirable, who loved order so much that it got him into a deal with the devil which either made a monster of him or freed him as one. Tolkien’s question about how much order is too much, incarnate: Sauron, at the beginning an assistant to Aulë

Last weekend I rewatched the LOTR films at the Royal Albert in concert. While every new rewatch of these films, like every reread of the books, is rich with new things to think about, I didn't fully expect to be hit like a truck and start sobbing at the end. So I want to talk about this moment.

#VGenComm Mer-ify Kohaku! when @luililie.bsky.social asked me to turn her fish obsessed girl Kohaku into a mermaid I knew I was going to have so much fun!! I actually did two versions because I ADORE her hoodie lol I hope you enjoy! #art #mermay #OCSky
