How is a raven like a writing desk?

Welp, Episode eight managed to somehow find the subbasement to rock bottom. Dear god where do I start?

It is a banal anathemic sacrilege and outright vitriolic and visceral sustained blasphemic abortion to Tolkien’s works. Not only is tone deaf in a way that only a soulless and hellbound corporation could manage. It goes out of its way to be Anti-Tolkien even at its basest level.

Corporate Anti-fiction as its final shuddering evolution on par with the erecting of the tower of babel itself.  Not only does it absolutely and resolutely undermine LOTR in its entirety it precludes the conceptual possibility of LOTR altogether.

it has to be AU at best.

The least of its crimes against nature and sin is it refutes the concept of goodness itself. Morgoth won the war is the best way to describe it. Eru Ilúvatar could never have created something this vacuous and empty.

Galadriel-Sue is the brand new face of a blackhole mary sue. Reality is her bitch and even the plot gives way to her mercurial wants.

Non-negotiable Ray Palpatine doesn’t even come close to this new found level of mary sue. This utterly insulting caricature. She is the left hand and right hand of Morgoth at the same time. Fk it Galadriel is what a successful Morgoth would look like.

Not only is she the instigator of everything in RoP. She’s The Dark Lord of the entire franchise by proxy who not only is forgiven but gets to escape karma entirely and go to the Undying Lands.  Sauron himself is her victim. Let that sink in.

I joked in an earlier post that sauron was the only one that could topple her. Nope, she took an erupting volcano to the face. Her plot armor is so heavily reinforced and thick I don’t even think the Death Star could touch her.

Sauron is exactly who you think it is and he is the doomed hero of the series.

This finale is what the death of fiction looks like.

If a corporation and or hollywood so much as even looks in your direction. Rings of Power is the absolute and resolute lasting example of what they’ll do to your beloved works if given even half a chance. Have a lawyer on hand and a box of pampers cause there’d be no possibility of even a bathroom break for the author on set who’d actively have to have a fricking loaded gun on the desk in front of everyone in the writing room at all times.

Rings of Power -10/10 Actively avoid at all costs with the acknowledgment that anyone praising it is actively trying to gaslight you.

Episode eight here I come.

A finale shouldn’t cause a pit of dread.

I’d like to pick your brain on this matter; and likely others will want to: namely why did you elect to set this site up if you do not want to post your own works- as well as for others to do the same thing- and also to add in a library of favorites of your own regarding works? Most people here will no doubt be mature enough to avoid being petty and complaining about “so-and-so likes your work better than mine...” kind of whiny pouting, but it does surprise me that you haven’t posted any works here in your profile, given that you spent the time to set it up, as well as presumably the whole site in the first place

Your motives are your own, of course, but I want to understand you a bit better; and it is also likely that others will be curious as to your thoughts as well, in addition to your own motives for why you do what you do- you obviously think it a good idea, but *why* do you think it a good idea, pray tell?

I need to spork out my eyes! 

I feel like Dobby since I only have to stomach episode 8 and I can leave RoP behind for good thank god.

For sale, one left leg, slightly used, going cheap… gimpy left hip included… 

Full read only mode.  Hacker attacked the chapters tables. Thier malice is wearing on my nerves.  Dg and I will deep dive after our respective day jobs. 

Sitting in read only again for a bit, Ass hat hacker attacked again. I need to get a couple of hours sleep before I look at the code. Had to roll back 24 hours  

Well, I achieved success… my halloween story now has a name!!!!

Episode 7 here I come

So my father-in-law recently survived a stroke, unfortunately. (He’s a real narcissistic ass) and that side of the family is pushing for my husband and I to send well wishes to him…. So, any suggestions for bland / neutral ways to say “congratulations on your continued existence.”?

Story Manager is now Live!!!!

Episode 7 here I come

That awkward moment when you see a “Report notification” for the first time in weeks and think to yourself “Oh, there’s someone reporting something.” and then it creeps up on you… I am the moderator and it’s my job to deal with that. (We're not mentioning that I’m also the one who made the damned spam report!)

Update 2! Reviews are under the new code and functioning.

Tough part about writing this Halloween story?   No sex.

RoP should be used as a sleep aid. Episode 6 made me sleep. Apparently sacrificing the only fortified structure for miles if not days and managing not to kill anyone with it was a bad move. Who knew?

Right when it started getting actiony suddenly NyQuil mode engaged.

The good shot was evil herself watching as Mount Doom erupts.

The archives are slowly creeping to life! The New indexes are roling out with some changes I’m sure authors will like.

Had a nightmare that Rings of Power went on for 10 seasons.

Rings of power can be summed as thus

• Galadriel is pretty much the greater evil of the story and at this point only Sauron himself is capable of knocking her down a peg. No, I’m not joking. She has glimmers of self-awareness that flicker and fade just as quickly as the story itself won’t let her be wrong.( She’s pretty much the most empowered Mary Sue in recent history)
• The Harfoots are evil to the core. Let’s leave them to die turned to lets steal their wheels so they’ll absolutely die. Forget orcs, the only reason anyone is alive is because they’re avoiding these murder monsters. Orcs are more sympathetic and they’re the minions of evil.
• Exiling evil herself absolutely was the right call as even when she’s apologizing for manipulating someone. She’s still un-apologetically doing it. “Because I cannot stop”
• Durin’s subplot is the best part of RoP. The actors are having fun with what they’re given.
• The only reason sauron’s acolytes are about is they want to steal the Harfoot’s unabashed evil for themselves and for screen time.
• The Mithril thing.
