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!)

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.

Cracking up as I’m working on my Halloween story…

Here’s an existential thought for you.
What if space is so vast because the divine didn’t want the chance for their creations to look upon one another or them?

I actually did start a LOTR darkfic half drunk.
 
One of the most anachronistic things I’ve ever written and it involved gandalf getting knocked out by a amazon prime box hitting him in the head and him tumbling down Orthanc

In honor of that soulless bleak caricature that is the hell I’ve been forced to watch that is rings of power.
I kinda want to do a porn heavy, LOTR dark fanfic safe in the knowledge of no matter what I do.
It will never approach the level of desecration that amazon has inflicted on the rest of us.
The LOTR stories on this site is lightyears better even the bleak gritty ones and for that they all should be commended and certainly celebrated.

Watching the Expanse.  Imagine having the actor credit of “puking diplomat” on your resume?

So, why do they even bother printing “best-by” dates for chocolate chips?  Seems rather pointless.

What I say: "Hekapoo" (the name of a character from Star Vs. the Forces of Evil).
What my phone hears: "Heckapoo," "pecapoo," "Hackaboo," "Packaboo," or "Hecka poop," depending on its mood.

YES!!!  My internet works again, how blessed.    Now where do I pick up my medal for having to withstand an eight day outage?

Now is that time to start thinking about those Halloween one shots!

We ordered Chinese tonight, and got a broken fortune cookie. My husband’s response? “Now that’s a misfortune right there.”
 I’m choking on my chicken, people. 

Here’s a language funny.
If Tomb and Womb have the same sound
then shouldn’t bomb be pronounced Boom?

Is this validation for many of us here?
