"They will be slain, and all our ponies too, and all out stores lost," moaned the others. "We can do nothing." "Nonsense!" said Thorin, recovering his dignity. "We cannot leave them. Get inside Mr Baggins and Balin, and you two Fili and Kili-the dragon shan't have all of us. Now you others, where are the ropes? Be quick!"

CW: Introduction post with lots of hashtags
New server, new #Introduction, I guess
I'm an #ActuallyAutistic #Queer person in #Edinburgh, #Scotland. I usually post about my interests or random thoughts in my head. I also often complain about technology around me. I also like to read about sustainability. Trying to keep my #HousePlants alive.
What you should know is I'm lactose intolerant. So please keep dairy away from my feed, haha.
I like watching #SciFi ( #StarTrek, #StarGate, #DoctorWho, and others), but I also like #MurderMystery. If you don't want to be murdered, don't go to Cabot Cove ( #MurderSheWrote). Occasionally I watch some #musical.
I try to get better at Go ( #weiqi, #baduk)
For games I usually play on my #NintendoSwitch (casual gamer - #MarioKart, #AnimalCrossing, #MarioParty, main series of #Mario, #Splatoon, #WarioGames, and more) and #BoardGames (a casual fan - I genuinely enjoy playing #Cluedo and #Munchkin. I also enjoy #Fluxx, #GiveMeTheBrain, #Scrabble, #TheSettlersOfCatan, Pandemic (that hashtag would be confusing), #ExplodingKittens, #Dixit, and more)
#TheHobbit is still my favourite book, but I also like #MissMarple, #Poirot, and #SherlockHolmes. #TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy series is great. So is #Discworld by #TerryPratchett. Enjoyed #EarthSea series.
I like to drink #Tea, especially #GreenTea. Enjoy animated shows like #Daria, #Amphibia, #TheOwlHouse, #ScoobyDoo, #GravityFalls, #BobsBurgers, #SpyXFamily, #InvaderZim, #DuckTales, #AvatarTheLastAirbender, old #TheSimpsons, #SpongeBob, and others
Occasionally watch some #KDrama
Fan of #sriracha

I haven't had much time to research answers to the questions that readers submit to the Middle-earth Blog this year. So to help me lighten the load, I've started a new series called Middle-earth Trivia (it requires less research). This is this first post in the series: "Little Known Details About Tolkien Elves"

Happy Hobbit Day to those who celebrate! Happy Birthday Bilbo & Frodo!
Remembering our AWESOME 2019 pre-COVID trip to #NewZealand with a visit to Bag End, Middle Earth, The Shire, #Hobbiton! #InternationalHobbitDay #HobbitDay #JRRTolkien #Tolkien #TheLordOfTheRings #LordOfTheRings #LOTR #TheHobbit #Hobbit #MiddleEarth #Shire #TheShire #WETA #WETAWorkshop #Fenster #Window #PhotographersOfMastodon #Photography #Photo #Photographer #Aotearoa #Film #Frodo #Bilbo -
Toasting the Professor
As in years past, January 3rd is a special evening. Don and I joined other J.R.R. Tolkien fans from around the world in raising a glass to toast the birthday of this much loved author, J.R.R. Tolkien, at precisely 21:00 (9:00pm) local time. I have chosen a special combination of cranberry juice and soda for the occasion.
The toast is simply “The Professor”.
The ProfessorJ.R.R. Tolkien, author of the classical mythological world of The Hobbit, The Lord of The Rings, and The Silmarillion, created a collection of legends set in a fictional universe. He once said that “War deepened and sobered my imagination and stimulated my love of fantasy.” The months in the trenches of WWI made a lasting impression, which is reflected within his writings. Even so, J.R.R. Tolkien did not yield to despondency. His response was to embrace life as a remarkable adventure to be experienced abundantly and completely.
In today’s tumultuous world, Tolkien’s narratives offer an escape to fantastical realms where courage and hope prevail. His stories remind us of the strength found in friendship and the potential for personal growth. His writing reflects deep philosophical and moral questions, encouraging us to contemplate our values, choices, and the nature of power and its consequences.
The Professor“I wish it need not have happened in my time,” said Frodo.
“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

It was my birthday the other day. Main present from my husband was a Sylvester McCoy as Radagast sculpt from Weta in New Zealand. I love how full of character it is! I did not enjoy the Hobbit trilogy of movies, though loved Lord of the Rings. But his performance and character were a rare highlight. #birthday #sculpture #figurine #Tolkien #LordOfTheRings #LOTR #TheHobbit #Hobbit #Filmstodon #OorWullie #SylvesterMcCoy #WetaFx #Weta #PeterJackson #Art #Wizards #Fantasy #Films #Movies #DoctorWho
