@Louis_van_Goat @JackTheJobber Yeah I thought AEW had a pretty poor showing for most of last year and then came really good at the end, and have maintained that into the this year!

@Diamandahagan @ThomasWillett9 There's plenty of questionable racial stuff in LOTR and some of his letters express some dated views on marriage & sex, but nothing in either his fiction writing, his academic writing or his personal letters suggests he had any strong opinions on homosexuality or gender diversity

@ThomasWillett9 Tolkien was too busy comparing bodily sex to clothing, being a fan of the ultra queer writing of Mary Renault and creating a species where all the men look like women and another where all the women look like men. Lewis was probably a wrong 'un. Tolkien much less clear cut.

i don’t think there should be a whole tolkien/lord of the rings cinematic universe, however, it’s clearly going to happen - so my question is WHY are the most boring parts of the legendarium being adapted? hunting gollum? the hobbits minus frodo? who is deciding this?!

@NotGlidus Did you know there's a Yolanda in the draft LOTR appendix material, from HoMe 12 1.III: Roderic, Alaric, Bellissima, Theodoric, Athanaric, and Primula; also Caradoc, Merry’s father, and his wife Yolanda Took (cf. VI.100, 251)

@GrandPOOBear It would arguably be fraud to quote a viewer count you know to be falsely inflated to an advertiser for a better rate

But wouldn't the brands just look at the ROI and say "well that didn't add up" and not work with them again? Or am I over here just thinking that people are paying a bit more attention then they actually are? Industry is so small that I feel word would get out kinda quickly

@GrandPOOBear Inflated viewers means agents and managers can also charge more $ for brand deals. Many brands pay for sponsored streams/integrations on average ccv basis. So if a stream is botted from 500 > 1000 viewers that's double the pay. It's shitty but sadly it's super common.

As a not so gentle reminder… My friend Hana took her own life because of cyberbullying and hateful comments on this app. This is me doing my part…urging the toxic portion of the IWC to think twice. Yours, may be the last post someone reads. 🌸
