Word of the day is ‘librocubicularist’: one who loves nothing better than reading in bed.

What an amazing day! I've laughed, I've cried, but most of all I've had the feeling I always get when the Tolkien community comes together and that's home.

Planning my cosplays for #TolkienTage next year!
So far I'm thinking Héra, a hobbit (naturally) and maybe Nerdanel 🤔
I hadn't actually dyed my hair with this intention, but it saves on wigs and having to wear said wigs 😂

I finally got around to watching the last season of Umbrella Academy, and ever since then I've had the baby shark song stuck in my head. So thanks for that 😂

the sound of mourning was woven into the themes of the World before it began.
But she does not weep for herself; and those who hearken to her learn pity, and endurance in hope.
...all those who wait in Mandos cry to her, for she brings strength to the spirit and turns sorrow to wisdom."
But she does not weep for herself; and those who hearken to her learn pity, and endurance in hope.

With #WaroftheRohirrim coming out (YAY!!!!!), I'm thinking a lot about Haleth and Nerdanel and Indis, and the small but poignant moments we see of them claiming their agency in #Tolkien's Legendarium.
