!! thanks. that is a lot to love anything and it means a lot.
there is no deal really – the new blog is not so much private as just more personal, more like a diary than this cosmic crackerjack show. i just wanted a sideways place? honestly i would love it if people were curious enough to come along.
Update: Legolas’ pupils are about 3.5 cm wide each. Now drawing kawaii Legolas on physics assignment.
And they told you science was no fun.
Science!
I’m going to do it. I’m going to hand it in.
Legolas’s pupil size isn’t the problem here, though. 5 leagues is 17.262 miles. The curvature of the Earth means that for a person of average height, the visual horizon is less than three miles away. Even if your vision is telescopic and the atmosphere is perfectly clear, you can’t see around the planet. If they were standing on a hill, it would have to be at LEAST 198 feet above sea level in order to see the horizon at 17.2 miles away, with nothing tall in between. Which, knowing Rohan, isn’t impossible.
But consider: Elven satellite eyeballs.
you mean like
@sidereanuncia it’s back, the post that I can only imagine haunts your nightmares
I shall never find peace.
Also, for what it’s worth, there’s absolutely no reason to believe that the curvature of Middle Earth is the same as that of Earth.
There’s no evidence that Middle Earth curves.
Yeah there is. The Silmarillion states that the world was curved after the fall of Numenor (I believe), preventing access to Valinor. But Elves (among others) can travel the straight path across it.
So middle earth is round, but not for Elves because magic.
So wait, the reason he can see that far is because Elves just have the ability to ignore the curve of the earth? That’s awesome. It also means that no matter how good your optics got, you would always want elf eyes manning the spyglass because they can see arbitrarily far while everybody else is limited by this ‘horizon’ bullshit.
Oh thank God, my poor elf prince has seen too much in this post
And then she emptied all of your fridge, did a number on the neighbours’ rabbits, ran from your loving care and sent you the bills to pay for her little ones. Ahh the feminist dream come true…
Wow, you even got beef with the fucking bunnies
Nah, I got beef with people who lay the emphasis on “deserving everything” rather that “you have to work hard if you want to earn good”.
could you imagine being the kind of person who takes time out of every day just to comment things like this on posts about bunnies?
could you imagine you’d be the kind of person who defends bunnies just because they are bunnies?
Can u imagine even thinking so negatively about a sweet lil bunny?!!?!
IMAGINE BEING THIS EMBARRASSING
Me when someone needs to chill their roll on a post about bunnies
“Imagine defending bunnies just because they are bunnies” might be the funniest thing ive ever read
I think what I’m amazed by is that @lleuwelyn somehow managed to get “[a woman] deserves everything” and complains about it not being a “you have to work hard if you want to earn good” message out of, get this:
“You can do anything you set your mind to”, which in itself implies that ones own work is required to produce the results.
Imagine being so misogynistic that you see reasons to hate women literally in the very message you claim you would be satisfied by
Because that’s exactly what it is. and nope, you are quite wrong. I can set my mind on wanting something. that doesnt mean I will get it. Unless I work for it. “setting your mind to” and “earning what you want” are 2 different things. Now I know that you being a feminist automatically makes you allergic to the word “work” as you expect everything to be given to you on a silver platter. Sorry, princess, in the real world things dont work that way.
Yeah, that felt rabbit toy needs to work harder and pull herself up by her bunny bootstraps. Thats how the real world works, right? I saw toy story.
