  3. Q: What Was Durin’s Crown?

    ANSWER: I received the following inquiry in March 2026:

    Hello. There’s a thought I had regarding the Crown of Durin. I have seen in the web endless discussions about which constellation the Crown of Durin might be, which is reflected on the waters on Mirrormere. But, could it be possible that it is no reflection at all, but actually a physical bejewelled crown that […]

    “Doctor Doom Thanked Seattle for All the Surveillance Cameras”

    Doctor Doom is good…but I think a Nazgûl ringwrath from LOTR would get more attention.

  13. We encourage you to be strange, not only for Wonderful Weirdos Day on September 6 but also everyday! Because being normal is boring and not creative!

    Be wonderfully weird like Isab and Rattio from our underground romantic comedy "What Went Down in Goblin Town?" at Pennsic last month!

  18. Con todo, hay momentos de la trilogía de El Señor de los Anillos que son simplemente sublimes. Es el mejor adjetivo que puedo encontrar para referirme a aquellos momentos que nos causan escalofríos, y hasta soltar lágrimas de emoción. A veces sólo pensar en ellos hace que se me enchine la piel y se me humedezcan los ojos...

  19. #til that I am Bombadilian. I resonate most strongly with #TomBombadil, and not any of the cool aspects. When you cringed at Tom's poetry and wondered when it would end, I felt seen. Drat, not Aragorn or Legolas, but silly silly loving Tom.

    Oh well, we all have our rings to bear. Off to make up a song about my wife, who does not yet have boots of yellow

  20. How Many Castles In Middle-earth?

    For screen readers [ Click to expand ] A six-panel comic in a cute Japanese chibi manga style follows Kael and Darvolo as they walk along a stone-paved road winding through a sunlit forest. Tall trees, wildflowers, moss-covered rocks, and patches of sunlight create a peaceful setting. Kael wears chain mail armor, a blue cloak, and carries a sword. Darvolo wears the elegant clothing of a wealthy merchant, including a feathered hat, embroidered robes, jewelry, and a decorative cloak. Their […]

  21. Hot take: I don't like the Lord of the Rings movies, and I think they are doing a disservice to the books, the fantasy genre, and roleplaying games as a hobby.

    They are ultimately not a very good adaption of the book and put mindless spectacle over the themes of loss and trauma that Tolkien clearly was working through. And their questionable art choices keep reverberating through fantasy, keeping 1980s dnd kitsch alive way past it's time.

  25. Tolkien was a racist.

    John Ronald Reuel Tolkien (3 January 1892 – 2 September 1973) was an [english] writer and academic philologist. He was the author of the high fantasy works The Hobbit (1937) and The Lord of the Rings (1954–1955).

    [These depicted dark skinned peoples on the side of evil reinforcing negative stereotypes making Tolkien racist.]

  29. Q: Why Were Arnor And Gondor Separate After Isildur Died?

    ANSWER: I received the following question from a reader in November 2025:

    Why were Armor and Gondor sundered after Isildur’s death, if long-range communications with the Palàntiri was a thing?

    Technically, the realm of Elendil persisted until Third Age year 861, when Amlaith and his two (unnamed) brothers divided Arnor into three […]
