Boromir lives AU where instead of being around for the events of Two Towers and ROTK he just kind of shows up in Minas Tirith after the Ring is destroyed all bloody & bedraggled like ‘you GUYS i had to swim all the way back what the hELL’
Aragorn: *watching Boromir’s funeral boat drift away* you checked for a pulse right Legolas
Legolas, who definitely does not know how human pulses work: sure did!!
*later*
Aragorn: LEGOLAS I TOLD YOU TO CHECK FOR A PULSE
Legolas: I did!
Aragorn: …..
Legolas: ….
Boromir: …..
Gimli: …..
Legolas: oh you meant check that he DIDN’T have one?
This is the only version of LOTR that I accept now
@ridesbymelanieb So the other day, one of my future brides asked what made me decide to work primarily with brides. It was the first time someone pointedly asked that question, and I had to think about it, because I couldn’t articulate it at the time. .
.
In a nutshell, do you see the way my bride @eboogie29 AND her husband are beaming?!! I mean they are literally CHEESING 😍and he is even pumping his fists like he hit a home run! (Which he did 😉)Their love and joy is UNDENIABLE. I do what I do because I get to play a little a part in that type of joy! Which in turn, brings me joy! Many times, I get a chance to get to know my couples and build a relationship as I am taking the journey with them. Sometimes, I may only meet the groom to be once, but in those moments, I watch them together! The little giggles, the little stares, oh how I love, love!
Being able to make a bride feel like she is the Queen of Sheba as she presents herself to her man, and the guests at her wedding, is a big deal! If she looks and feels amazing, then my job is DONE, and is a direct contribution to her overall feeling the entire day. What an honor and a blessing. .
that time walter cronkite died and the chicago tribune decided to refer to him as mr. cronkite in their obituary as a show of respect so they ran a program that replaced every instance of “cronkite” with “mr. cronkite” and do you see where i’m going with this
i love this.
reported here: “an editor must have used search-and-replace to make “Cronkite” into “Mr. Cronkite.“ There was some collateral damage.”

Personally I always felt like Hobbits age at roughly the same rate as exceptionally healthy humans and that the reason they don’t come of legal age until 33 is because have you met people in their 20s because Tolkien did
Funny: Pippin is an idiot because he’s not an adult yet.

In the Twilight universe, “vegetarian” vampires have golden eyes from drinking animal blood, a more ethical source than human blood, which would give them red eyes. It has also been established that a diet of human blood makes vampires physically stronger. So, if the Cullens wanted to become stronger without jeopardizing their morals, could they consume mosquitoes instead? How many mosquitoes would they have to eat to survive? Since mosquitoes drink from both humans and animals, what color would their eyes be? Orange? In this essay, I will
on average an adult has about 4.5-5.5 liters of blood circulating in their body. a female mosquito, when completely full, can hold up to 0.001-0.01 milliliters of blood in their abdomen depending on the species. if we take the average of both (5 liters & 0.0055 milliliters), it would take around 909,090 mosquitos to equal the amount of blood in a single human. although there isnt an exact number of the entirety of the mosquito population, we can use fermi estimation. there is about 57 million square miles of total land area on earth, while say 50 million square miles are habitable for mosquitos. with a rough of estimate of 1 mosquito per 50 square feet (overestimate due to area and time of year). after multiplying the numbers and fixing the units, there is a rough estimated 70 quadrillion mosquitos. theoretically, if a vampire lived in a mosquito dense area, such as brazil, indonesia, malaysia, thailand, etc, and could sustainably hunt around a million mosquitos to fill themselves every time they needed to feed, there would be enough mosquitos to survive on due to their large population and fast reproduction.
This is honestly everything I have ever wanted thank you for your contribution to the cause
Hey guys I think I figured out why vampires can turn into bats
This is literally the most heart warming story I have read on Twitter so far.
I think this is exactly what friends should do, and I feel everyone deserves people like this.
A barn rasing:
a collective action of a community, in which a barn for one of the members is built or rebuilt collectively by members of the community.
because you cannot, you CANNOT, build a barn on your own, and without it, you will not be able to survive.
What a fuckin’ gem of a sentence. “What we did today was a barn rasin”
