tiktokers who say classic lit is bad because its not relatable 1. thats not the fucking point 2. you've clearly never read twelfth night as a trans bisexual

If you're fucked up enough a lot of classic lit suddenly becomes uncomfortably relatable tbh.

This is 100% true, but also: literature is a great way to engage with people you don't actually relate to, and practice feeling empathy for them anyway. I have never been in a battle, but I have cried over the Iliad multiple times because I was suddenly made very aware that every single war has people like Hector in it, who leave their families one day and just never come home to them. Please keep looking for things you find relatable in unexpected places - but not everything has to be relatable for it to be worthwhile.

Not everything has to be about you to be worth reading

Help I'm having thoughts about Thorin being all soft and indulgent with his personal raven like a stern dad with the puppy he said he didn't want that he lets do whatever it wants.

Just letting it look at what he's holding and feeding it from his plate and letting it grab his finger in its beak and wiggling it from side to side like he's playing tug with it. Letting it preen him and stroking its head.

Just soft Thorin with his bird 🥺

Hestia bust for @callisteios

During my research for this I realised she just doesn't get enough love. She doesn't even have enough myths, like, forget all the other gods, here's one I would really like to see someone make more stories about.

Another piece of my pride series, dedicated to a very wonderful and influential friend who I'll always see as a modern day shield maiden.

Protect all sisters. Protect all our siblings.

"Maedhros did deeds of surpassing valour, and the Orcs fled before his face; for since his torment upon Thangorodrim his spirit burned like a white fire within, and he was as one that returns from the dead."

resentfully throwing this ginger mass murderer into the tumblr void because i've been trying to get his eyes right for weeks to no avail and now he's been bumped down to my second favourite character accordingly.
