So it's 01.22am in here, but I can't sleep cause my neighbour is partying and they literally sings right in front of my window WTF!
So I decided to makes a blog about the detail if the rings replacement on The Hobbit, my headcanons ofc! And the character is Thranduil and his 4 rings
He wore 4 rings on his finger. His gem (ruler) ring, his snake ring, and his twin wood rings. And this is my headcanon about the meaning behind all his rings
The ruler ring
Why I call this ring, his ruler ring. Cause this ring is the only ring with gem on it. And he placed this ring on his index finger.
Usually a kings, queens, lords, or simply a ruler will place the ruler ring on their index finger. The purpose on that is when the subject demand to meet with the ruler, the subject will kiss the ring as the symbol of their loyalty. And not just that, In medieval Europe, wearing a ring on the index finger signified power and prestige. The index finger usually carried a signet or crest ring to show off an individual’s wealth and familial status.
And the ruler ring is usually they inherit from the previous ruler. So in my headcanon this ring his inherit from his father, King Oropher. As the previous ruler
His snake shape ring
My opinion is divided in two for this ring. 1st that this ring is symbolic that he's the one who defeat the great serpents of the north. That's why the ring on a snake shape. And the 2nd one, is this ring is his wedding band. He placed this ring on his ring finger, and the colour is gold. The common colour for wedding band.
And he's not the only one who wear his wedding band even after his partner departured to Valinor. Elrond also wore his wedding band on his finger. So this there's a posibility that this ring is his wedding band.
His twin rings
He wore this twin rings on hir right hand. One on his index finger, and the other one on his ring finger.
The shapes of this rings is in a wood shapes, and the colour is like the colour of the stones. The meaning behind this rings is that he declared himself king of wood and stone. as Peter Jackson called him. There's also other meaning behind the rings replacement but I'm not gonna write it. Cause that's not necesarry for now
I literally need more than 4 days for analyzed this kind of post.
And I also make the same analyzed for Rings Of Power. But Idk when I'll post it.
SO YOU BETTER LIKE AND REPOST MY BLOG OR I'LL CRAWLING TO YOUR BED AT MIDNIGHT, AND STAB YOUR FACE WITH THRANDUIL'S SWORD!

im hurting so fucking bad rn and ive been thinking about Driver getting angry on my behalf. angry at anyone who's ever had the audacity to lay a hand on me, angry at anyone who's ever decided i'm only lovable when it's through violence, when it's conditional
that line at the end of the movie when he's suddenly exploding, shouting, grabbing shannon and shaking him, screaming "I SHOULD FUCKING KILL YOU", scaring shannon to death because Driver is not one to ever lose composure. he's described as someone who never raises his voice, he's calm, he's reserved. he's quiet. but not when someone he loves is getting hurt. i'm someone he loves. i know he'd tear anyone apart if i told him what happened to me, what someone said to me, what people have done to me
i want him to do that on my behalf. get angry, i mean. enraged. im sick of people walking all over me. im sick of giving and giving and giving and being used. im sick to death of it. i want driver to be so angry on my behalf that he gets ready to throw himself at someone, while two other people have to struggle to hold him back while saying - no, stammering - Driver easy, easy, take it easy, calm down, hold on just a minute, because he's thrashing and yelling himself hoarse, sweat dripping off of his forehead, gnashing his teeth and curling his lips so far back you see his gums. he's out of his mind with rage, trembling, every few seconds he's trying to lunge forward, normally such calm and steady hands curled into fists ready to swing, his shoes scraping noisily against the pavement while he's trying to run at them but he's being held back -- shouting "you hurt my girl? you hurt my girl? i should kill you. i should fucking kill you!"

Obviously 4x02 aired last night and I wanted to talk about it because boy did I have an massive reaction to it.
Dude-bro Nancy was one of the most triggering things I have watched in a very long time. As an abuse survivor with PTSD, watching her words & actions turn from haha funny commentary on toxic masculinity to just straight up verbal and later physical abuse toward Ace had me shaking. Heck it's the next morning and I'm still not okay.
I know that the scenes are not going to affect everyone the same way it has affected me, but I also feel that many people aren't going to look beyond what Nancy was doing/saying outside the framing of 'toxic masculinity'.
Woman, men and nb people have the capacity to be abusive - it takes many forms and isn't directly linked to toxic masculinity. And I think people are finding it far to easy to joke and meme the scene (while yes that just might be how some people cope with having watched it).
This isn't me putting any criticism at the feet of the writers, cast or crew - as I told the Nancy Drew Writers Twitter "I wouldn't be as triggered if it hadn't been such an accurate depiction"
But Ace was abused this episode, even if just for a short while. Despite it being completely out of Nancy's control - its going to take me a minute to readjust and refind my love for Nace.
