The worst changes Peter Jackson et al made in the LotR movies were actually these:

Samwise doesn't get his box of soil and mallorn nut from Galadriel.

Sam and Rosie don't move into Bag End at the end of the movie.

#Froyo give your boyfriend and his wife and 77 children your goddamn mansion when you ascend to the divine plane #If you really needed to set up the rope for that one rope scene in 2T just add it to the supplying and lembas scene #C'mon bro #Most of the rest of the changes I understand even if I disagree with. #But you're really robbing my boy #Like did Lobelia move in at the end? Did the Property Brothers paint it beige and flip it? #lotr #Lord of the Rings #Samwise gamgee #Peter Jackson #post o' mine #PS we ship samfrosie on this blog.

There are actually so many takes people have in this fandom be it through headcanons/fanart/general thoughts that make me wanna fist fight sometimes but you know what is best to do? Block/disengage/mute/ignore - whatever it is that I need to do to never see it again and I take responsibility for what I consume. Even though sometimes it's people who are my mutuals and friends that I generally enjoy connecting with. Sometimes we don't see eye to eye and that is perfectly okay!

But also...it would be super nice to be able to click on a tag/fanart/whatever and not see fighting or negativity or general asshole behavior. It would be SUPER nice if passive-aggressive tags weren't added to everything. Because I can disagree with your interpretation of something and not like it without it meaning I'm being a jerk. Without it meaning I'm being vague about someone or something. I'm not obligated to engage with things I don't agree with or like. But people can have different thoughts and that is okay. It stops being okay when you tell me that my thoughts are wrong and you're right and because you're "right" I should go fuck myself. Canon is canon, fanon is fanon and everything else outside of what is actually in the books is speculation. Everyone is guessing and whenever the next fucken book comes out, you'll know if you're "right" even though at the end of the day, it doesn't really matter because being right isn't the point, it's about actually enjoying the stupid books.

When people who have been in this fandom for years tell you they're burnt out, you can't wonder why when general fan behavior is crusty as hell. These characters aren't going to come out of the book and fuck you. Go eat some grass, touching it isn't enough.

#gp #fandon wank #stay the fuck out of my askbox you idiot person #It's already been a week I don't need your nonsense #sorry for this rant #I'm just so done and I've done my very best to ignore it 99% of the time but enough #This person leaves me messages every once in a while and I thought I blocked them #but they seem to pop out of the freaken woodwork #I even changed my settings so only tumblr folks can engage with my blog AND YET #lord help you weird pathetic person #I never post about stupid anons because it gives them attention but this one really came at a bad time. #tbd

Thinking of making one of those life series askblogs with all the dead characters in some form of afterlife. They’re really fun and things like that have been in my head since Last Life started so if anyone’s gonna jump on that you know it’s me (especially since I’ve run 3… successful enough ask series in the past).

#YES I’m talking about. uh. I forgot their url but I’ve been following for a long time 😭 #life series winners blog you know. that’s all over the tag. #and then someone made a school one? I gotta look into that one more seems fun #so yeah I’m really tempted to do one myself cuz like I said since LL started I’ve loved the idea of these guys hanging out after death #I just need to refine some lore for it. and something to set it apart from the others #of course they’re already different. life series winners one is about the winners reacting to the seasons + it’s like a mega crossover #and then the school one. bro I’m calling it the school one. it CLEARLY has a thing lol. and I’m not copying that idea. #so automatically it’s different but what will make mine interesting? aside from the fact that I want to actually draw them #no offense to the other ones I think it’s great that they don’t need to draw. I just want to. #maybe while refining the lore I’ll come up with something. it’ll be based on my headcanons so there’s already some potential lmao

“What a delightful library you have at Pemberley, Mr Darcy!”

“It ought to be good,” he replied, “it has been the work of many generations.”

“And then you have added so much to it yourself, you are always buying books.”

“I cannot comprehend the neglect of a family library in such days as these.”

This conversation is intriguing because, as is often the case in P&P, there is so little narrative framing or comment that you have to make quite a few assumptions based on how you read the characters. We don’t even hear Elizabeth’s reaction to this interchange and don’t know how she takes it (though when Darcy later tries to talk to her about books, she’s sure that their tastes are so wildly different that they won’t have anything to talk about).

In any case, both fans and critics have come away with a lot of different interpretations of Darcy’s book-buying sprees and, in particular, what he means by “such days as these.”

I just read an article that dismissively characterized it as a stuffy civilization-is-falling-down-around-us-in-these-degenerate-times thing showing the basic conservatism of his mindset, and while that article was particularly hostile, it’s a pretty common reading. And you can read it that way, but frankly, it doesn’t seem the most natural reading in the context of either the scene or his overall characterization.

Darcy is repeatedly associated with books and reading and general intellectualism. The Pemberley library links his family pride and his sense of legacy with his personal inclinations—as an individual, he’s bookish, clever, and fairly cerebral. He reads, he buys new books, he enjoys philosophical debates, his response to Elizabeth’s assertion of their different tastes in books is “cool, then we can argue about them :D”, he encourages his teenage sister’s artistic interests and defends her disciplined approach to them when she’s not even there, he collects fine and apparently borderline-incomprehensible paintings, he’s dismissive about the expected accomplishments of upper-class women in favor of reading (partly bc Elizabeth has been reading, but it’s not surprising that a man responsible from age 23 for the education of a young girl has Thoughts on the ongoing female education debates of the time).

All of this is to say that Darcy is engaged with what was then contemporary culture and discourse. This is especially the case if you go with the time of his creation, 1796, but it doesn’t make a huge difference because these debates were still ongoing in the 1810s, and he rarely refers to specific figures and instead prefers more generally familiar concepts and arguments (or chooses to rely on those in conversation with women), and in any case, the English artistic movements of the 1810s owed a lot to those of the late eighteenth century.

And a big eighteenth-century debate was about the merits of modern art, especially literature, compared to ancient art. Historically, there was a lot of deference in English literature to ancient models and dictates, and controversy over newer forms like the novel (in English) but also in poetry and drama and essays. To some people, it seemed like art was going horribly astray by diverging from the ancients (despite the continuing strong influence of Classicism). Others thought the artistic movements of the time were fucking awesome valuable and important, which is generally Austen’s position (most famously in the defense of the novel in NA).

So when Darcy speaks of “such days as these,” I don’t think this is coming from snooty disengagement from the current literary zeitgeist, but rather, the reverse. He’s seeing all these ideas being hotly debated in various essays and treatises, and the English novel taking modern form, and poetry undergoing changes that will only become more drastic, etc etc, and thinks—this is important. Anybody with a family library should be adding the literature that’s coming out at this time.

TL;DR I think Darcy has an affinity for modern art/literature/culture in any case, but also, is so convinced of the importance of the literary “moment” he’s living in that he thinks he’d basically be shaming his ancestors if he didn’t include it in the collection that he’ll pass down to the next generation as it was passed to him.

#it's not just that people like him need to maintain family libraries with what's currently out there #but that he thinks that what's happening /right now/ is a really big deal that needs to be added for its own sake #i find it a bit weird that this reading seems unusual but some people are very committed to stuffy conservative darcy so #i do go with the c. 1796 setting which makes this fairly funny... lyrical ballads is coming out in two years #and darcy can't know that! it's just. something is going on! clearly! what is the point of being rich if you don't preserve this stuff??? #anghraine babbles #austen blogging #austen fanwank #lady anne blogging #anghraine's meta #fitzwilliam darcy #pride and prejudice #jane austen #tangentially: this is kind of associated in my head with how the preceding darcy-like characters are pretty much all 18th century #elizabeth has this whole beatrice/rosalind legacy and the debt to much ado about nothing is obvious #but darcy isn't like benedick. he's like... lord orville if he were interesting. #so he's a fairly distinctly /modern/ man in the original context where he's often now seen as a quintessential/old-fashioned figure #and it makes sense that he would have a lot of affinity with modern culture where elizabeth is more detached

not a request but how's the askbox looking?

Kinda full 😂 127 asks not counting this one right now. I did not expect this blog to get NEARLY this much interaction when I made it, but I'm so glad it's making people happy!!

#queue is set to 5 posts per day and my personal goal is just to add at least 5 to the queue every day 😂 #which is honestly manageable. i don't need to clear it out; just keep up with it. and they really don't take long to make #ask #i guess i didn't realize how many other Christians like to headcanon that their favorite characters are Christian too! #i do it so much. we should all continue doing that and talk about it more i think #Christian character headcanon agenda!!! i think we should all continue to headcanon characters as Christian AND #talk about it more and also write about it more and share the headcanons #cause maybe it's just me but i sometimes worried about it that people would get mad at me or i guess just call it cringe #and I'd be nervous to talk about mine just because i was worried other people wouldn't like the headcanon #this blog has made me pretty sure there's an audience 😂😂

[ I am not biased about Nnoitra--- ( this is my current wordcount for my muses ) --- I plan on dropping Shinji, Muramasa and Ashitaka by the end of the year.

teaching has just truly driven me away from tumblr discourse because I’m still talking to people who are wrong about literature and have bad takes but now there are valid and understandable reasons for that (adolescence) (new to life in general and having opinions at all)

#akksksjejeje this is so mean I mean the wider problem of tumblr discourse!!!!!!!!!!! not any individuals #well maybe some individuals whose blogs I have come across over the years #who are spewing heresy and nonsense #but anyway on a more serious note all patience for discourse and discussion is simply used up in my teaching #that’s where it all goes #I got nothing left! #I mean I have lots left for one on one discussions #but I just mean in terms of interacting with a group and all the work that comes with balancing the humors (lol) #of a group setting so that there can be the right amount of harmony and forward motion #that’s just used up in teaching #It’s the right context for it! #I should really just leave here. it would be better and fairer #but I still kind of need it as a dumping ground #(Anyway if you read my posts and reply to them and are kind I appreciate it so much <3 I do not mean to disparage you at all) #(I am just also trying to be honest about why the format and the space here is one I’ve grown beyond/can’t use in the same way I used to #and it’s something I still need to occasionally work out in a text post on tumblr I guess! #which is ironic #to say the least.

There are a couple tropes I really love in the space of Miraculous Ladybug fan works, but quite possibly my favorite is when the miraculous holders just get creature from using their powers.

Like yeah, I would say that hosting the power of an abstract concept given sentience, that got shoved into the shape of an animal and bound to a piece of jewelry, would kinda mess with your body a bit.

The little bit of this we get in canon is basically that Adrien loves being a cat and the whole Tikki munches incident.

But I love it when people give them ears and wings and tails, give them eyes that aren't quite human anymore. Fuck with their gender and their sense of body. Sometimes it's body horror, sometimes it's just aesthetic. Love it either way.

I just think it's so fun, a lot of the time it's combined with the like "when a holder and the kawami really respect and bond with each other there's nothing that can be done except having magic bleed into the holder" I think that's fun, but also just making the animal of the kwami a bigger deal is fun. Like if you're going to make it a ladybug you might as well give her wings and antenna and mirrored eyes.

i finally found a way to repurpose my old hp ocs into something original! whilst i don't think i'll do much with the concept, its really nice to have them in a place that i feel happy to visit!

#like...these ocs got me through sixth form college without a doubt and i love them very dearly #and leaving them in a franchise that made me feel very cold and sad sucked #but im very particular about characters and their relationship with setting #its so often a part of them that i couldnt just....move them ANYWHERE yknow? #i needed something that fit. that let them still be them but also let it be distinct and ME #and i came up with one! im really happy #anyway if any of y'all remember caleb and bobbie then congrats u earn a veteran discount on my blog #luke rambles

Trying? Trying??? By learning. By succeeding!

(about this and my text under the cut)

this is very nice actually thank you so much <3 <3 and like, i probably do need to give myself more credit in general but also i am still very much learning and stumbling and figuring digital art out (and for the most part it is so fun)

I’m gonna ramble about this a bit so bear with me and also i apologize lol, but that art was done after a month of getting increasingly more frustrated with everything turning out so badly and eventually realizing that I was trying to 1. copy a certain look/style that i’ve internalized is what fanart and digital art should look like and is very far away from my style/comfort zone 2. i was trying to do everything digital allows without being comfortable with it or understanding it

so (and this took me a month to realize ? ??) i did what i already knew from doing acrylic and oil painting in the past and could somewhat easily transfer to digital without having to know more than the basics, like i didn’t use a lot of the things digital provides or allows for. i used layers for my own peace of mind but without actually needing them and did some color adjusting (honestly, the color adjusting digital lets you do is such a blessing to me) but the only fancy way i really utilized the medium was making it a gif (which is so fun and a lot easier than i would have thought, like honestly watch me make any future art into gifs too) but there are so many things you can do with the medium with settings/effects, different brushes, tools to use in the process etc that i just do not understand what they are or how to implement them so i am very slowly learning digital art as a whole new medium rather than just being able to use it to adapt what i already know

#sorry you just wanted to say a quick thing and i went on a whole rant (welcome to my blog tbh) #like i'll watch tutorials and they'll be like 'and i just did an overlay and then a multiply layer in a good color (:' and im like ??? wdym #'a good color' what color is a good color? like i can put those effects on my work but that's just me clicking a button without knowing wha #will happen really and like i watch speed paints and see them do stuff and im just ? HUH? what was that and why? #i also do not understand a lot of these concepts with traditional art tbh like people will talk about under paintings and im like yeah sure #i hear you however i also do not- i just place a color where it should be and that's that which i know is why my colors often don't feel #cohesive which is also something i need to learn which is blah- im basically just saying i actually do not know any theory or technique #even with traditional it is all just vibes and hoping for the best which in the long run just makes me very confused about what i am #actually doing and not confident at all i'll be able to do it again so u know #we're out here literally just raw dogging art without any thought #but it's also just i do not need to do all those fancy things but i would like to understand them and i am excited to see my progress now #i just really had a shitty month of making ugly things up until now okay so i was a little fragile when i posted that #but people have been so so nice about it and ive been crying for two days straight #also people have been so lovely about the colors and colors are deadass the hardest part about digital like with paint you often buy a set #that already match and then mix them if needed and they'll look nice together but with digital you're just on your own- no training wheels #ask #anon
