The reason none of us are normal about the Silmarillion after reading it is because it’s about so many things. Even disregarding the Histories and the Unfinished Tales, the Silmarillion is about doom and brutal defeats and generational curses and fatal flaws and the breaking of cycles. It’s about flawed gods and family feuds and love that defies fate and the inevitable loss of all things beautiful. It’s about looking back thousands of years at the men and women of myth and legend. It’s about the wrenching tragedies and the glimmers of hope, it’s Feanor putting the first torch to the swan ships and Turin falling on his own sword, Fingolfin despondent summoning Morgoth to come out and face him and Beren and Luthien stealing a silmaril from his crown, Elwing saved against all odds and hope and Earendil climbing to the peak of the gods to plead for mercy - and winning it. And it’s also about getting naked and death battling a werewolf with your teeth.

Choose your fighter!

Túrin
Pros: Highly effective at destruction of all he comes in contact with. You don’t even need to get him to agree to any plans. Destruction will just happen around him. Everyone involved will love him anyway.
Cons: Tends to wander, resulting in non-specific area of effect. Also, you’ve now come in contact with him…

Maeglin
Pros: No one will notice he’s up to anything.
Cons: Requires inprisonment, torture and bribing. Single use.

Sauron
Pros: Elaborate schemes. Lot’s of fun if you have a somewhat dark idea of fun. Doesn’t matter if some notice that he’s up to no good, the job will get done regardless.
Cons: Requires the destruction to benefit himself. Also, I hope you’re not in a rush. How long is your lifspan?

man, the way some of the reddit refugees talk about moving to tumblr is kinda depressing; they’re saying stuff like “No one has belittled me on tumblr yet” and “people actually talk to me here.”

We’ve got to rehabilitate these users so that they can see what it’s like to have a non-hostile internet experience.

reddit’s pvp experience was unmatched. i didn’t realize how naturally defensive and ready to fight on the internet i was until i didn’t have to any more
