"average elf uses 3 brain cells a year" factoid actually statistical error. average elf uses 0 brain cells per year. Braincells Elrond, who lives in Imladris & uses 10,000 brain cells every day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted.

If your goals basically amount to "after The Revolution everything will be great because people will all have the Good Ethics and work together in my Perfect System and the Evil People with Bad Morals and Bad Behaviour who are making this world bad will be gone (killed/imprisoned/exiled/all converted to agree with us when they see our Perfect System)" then that's just fascism. I hate to say it but you've put a gay socialist hat on fascism.
The MAGA people are still gonna be around in your Perfect System and a very large proportion of them are still gonna be Like That. We can discourage antisocial behaviour through laws and education and changing cultural norms, but if plans for future society involve [group I'm opposed to] magically not being part of it so the Good People can Do Things Right, well.
✨No Bad Guys Here✨ - how do you want to enforce that.
Honestly, I think this concept of The Revolution is to some leftists what Armageddon is to some Christians: an easy excuse to not try and grapple with difficult problems like hunger or poverty or injustice or climate, because any day now the Great Reckoning will come and wipe the slate clean.
#well you see america was founded on [original sin] which makes it irredeemable and any effort to improve it ultimately pointless#the only hope for salvation is to wait for [armageddon] to destroy it and cast down the unrighteous so the rest of us can [reach paradise]#voting for example is an act of interacting with and investing in this world which is too evil and tenporary to be worth it#not when The Great Reckoning is on its way to wipe the slate clean
@blujayonthewing you can't leave these in the tags
thank you tumblr for jitterbug-ifying the app for us senior citizens
One of my professors had a wrong date of birth on his wikipedia page and when he fixed it a wiki editor changed it back because ‘the subject of an article can’t change the article as they’re not a neutral source’. Which is understandable for the body of the article but incredibly funny of this editor to be pedantic about a university professors birthday
Can confirm I also have this issue with my DOB being wrong on my Wikipedia page and have had the same issue with changing it. Except it’s the entire YEAR so Wikipedia thinks I’m a year younger than I am.

they should do a bit where the doctor goes “enough is enough no more of this i am going to change and be better no more kidnapping people with my box and doing irreparable damage to their life!” and he goes to therapy and the therapist meets him and they start talking and about ohhh 15 minutes later the therapist is in the tardis and the doors shut and all you hear is “yes that’s right All Of Time And Space!”

ever since i was a child ive known that i wanted to, someday, be the mutilated corpse on a nature trail that ruins a hikers week
Reading the Silmarillion, the elves seem so active and full of life.They’re always doing things. When you get to the Lord of the Rings, they just seem so tired. Elrond holds a meeting and then he’s out. Galadriel has some guests stay with her. They’re so done. They just wanna leave.
the number of people in the top vs bottom pic is accurate too
