do you think botw/totk link already had 3 holes in each ear before equipping the frostbite/ember/charged headdresses or did link shove those earrings directly into his ear every time he equips them. They also certainly didn’t have time to heal so each time the headdress are equipped, link stabs themselves with the earrings.

These noise canceling headphones were such a great purchase, they’re awesome, there’s 50 hours of listening time, charge in 15 minutes, and really cancel most of the noise. I love them. And they’re blue! And were only $50.

They looked at each other with the mute inquiry which human beings, of whatever sex, have often interchanged.

I cannot get over great big epic songs about small battles and little armies.
“There armed lines of marching men
In squadrons passed me by
No pipe did hum, no battle drum
Did sound its dread tattoo
But the angelus bells o’er the Liffey’s swells
Rang out in the foggy dew.”
the drama! The grandeur!! The Easter rising is a little thing by a bunch of nobody’s in the grand scheme of history. But that does not matter in this song! It is not a tiny backwater uprising on a nothing island against a global empire. It is a clash worthy of epics. It’s just, the incredible history of it!
people who were there at the battle felt it was worth writing epics about! Because it was!
the Easter Rising is no less epic than the Trojan war! It’s certainly not smaller, sheer numbers wise! The same goes for every tiny backwater fight that ever had an epic written about it. This goes for the American revolution, for the jacobites, for the wars in Yugoslavia that buskers write poems about, for songs about Moses written by slaves in code to get deliverance too, for those old cowboy songs mourning the Indian wars, all of it! The lofty events of the numinous past are here and now. The heroes of old are human beings.
not to reduce the epic events of the mythic past to petty squabbles or heroes into unremarkable people, quite the opposite! It is not that heroes are ordinary men and women, it is that ordinary men and women are heroes!
these people lived through these events which seem so small in the grand scheme of history and felt they deserved epic poetry, and they were right! No cause that anyone has ever felt ready to die for is insignificant! The age of heroes is the age in which people are heroic, when people stand up for the weak and the poor and oppressed, no matter what happens.
we tell stories of the grand, epic past, not to make people nostalgic for an age they never saw, but to inspire them to stand up here and now, in their own circumstances. We tell them because they can and will happen again. Because the people in them were ordinary people with extraordinary courage who deserve to be remembered. Great deeds are worth writing songs about.
“Do legends walk on the green earth?” The rider asked Aragorn, scoffing.
“That may be,” answered Aragorn, “but the green earth is a mighty matter of legend.”

(via Arrest warrants issued for 3 men in massive fight at Montgomery riverfront dock, police say | CNN)
Richard Roberts, 48, was charged with two counts of third-degree assault, and Allen Todd, 23, and Zachary Shipman, 25, were each charged with one such count, Albert said. The chief described the three as White men who were connected to the private boat owner.
maybe they are actually charging the right people this time.
