There's something strangely comforting knowing that your literary hero was a good man who lived a good life and ... is long gone beyond the circles of the world. You do not have to worry about him doing something bad and breaking your heart because he already lived his life and he was good.

For #BlackHistoryMonth here's a quote by one of my heroes - Frederick Douglass:
"I love the pure, peaceable, and impartial Christianity of Christ: I therefore hate the corrupt, slaveholding, women-whipping, cradle-plundering, partial and hypocritical Christianity of this land...

Just me thinking about how "Fin" is a common part of so many elvish names in the 1st age and it means "hair" . Those epic elvish warriors all have names about something to do with their hair.

Here's a fun topic for discussion for all of you hungry Hobbits out there.
Are hot dogs in a bun sandwiches or tacos?
And do you think Hobbits ate any of the three - sandwiches, hotdogs or tacos.

LONG POST - For those with larger audiences, a repost will be much appreciated to share with as many people as possible
In June 2023 it was brought to my attention (and @drnosy.bsky.social ) that there was an individual stalking and harassing women across Tolkien Fandoms /1

So I totally would fantasy cast Chris Hemsworth as Tulkas from the Silmarillion! That character gives major Thor vibes to me.
How would you cast fantasy cast the Valar from the Silmarillion?

So I've read four of @ruthwarewriter.bsky.social's book and really enjoyed them (Turn of The Key, One by One, The It Girl , Zero Days). I'm on a Ruth Ware reading kick and want to read another of hers next. Which of hers should I read next?
Do you have a fav of hers that I've not read yet?

What's a book that you read earlier in your life did not like much but decided to give another chance later on and ended up loving it?
For me it's The Magician's Nephew from the Chronicles of Narnia. Least favorite as a kid but now love it as an adult.

I'm a big fan of LOTR - books and movies and Silmarillion and Rings of Power - I can love it all! I just reconcile the differences by considering each to be its own parallel timeline/universe. This viewpoint let's me enjoy every one without feeling one invalidates or threatens the others.
