As the source of my Silmarillion infection I come to inflict upon you not only are all elf marriages probably some degree of inbreeding because of 144 Unbegotten elves thing but also because they're long lived af and don't as far as I know have a menopause equivalent they have POSSIBILITIES for inbreeding we don't that make charting family trees some type of genealogical Who's on First Abbot & Costello routine. For example Celeborn's niece is Elrond's maternal grandmother and Celebrían is related to Elrond as a cousin in like 4 different ways In one of those ways Arwen his 3rd cousin. Tolkien elves your age mate's parents could be your 3x times great aunts and your spouse babysat them as kids maybe The comedy potential of some human court genealogist getting Queen Arwen's family tree deets sends me

Oh yeah the elf fuck math. I've done it myself. Tolkien did it himself too. The 144 Unbegotten thing is WILD.

Every elf is related to every other elf that's just how it is now!

I am very entertained by the french dub's liberal use of swears, it's been fun and never cease to amaze me that they can just SAY that

Tried my best to translate but alas. The meanings get a bit lost.

People talk about Lolita like Humbert Humbert is a conflicted and dichotomous character and then you read the actual book and he's like "I love lying to people for fun and getting lost in flights of wild imagination and making things up and telling falsehoods. Also I look like a bunch of movie stars and every woman in the stories I tell thinks I'm darkly handsome."

“National teacher shortage” is a fun way of saying that the USA has made a passion driven job so ungodly inhospitable that even people who “just care about teaching, not the money” don’t even care about teaching anymore.

““The mannerisms that help define gender - the way in which people walk,swing their hips, gesture with their hands, move their mouths and eyes when they talk, take up space - are all based upon how non disabled people move…The construct of gender depends not only upon the male body and female body, but also on the non disabled body.””
