If you take issue with this, her write-up or my stance on it, Bree Crossroads is not the space for you.

Tolkien is for Everyone rings of power season 3 has been confirmed and what that means for the future of my tolkien spaces

Just want to be super clear about the Bree Crossroads spaces and platform. I 100% agree with Celebreabird here in this perfectly eloquent write-up she did on Tolkien being for *everyone*. It's worth a read and re-read; hell a bookmark while you're at it. manymeetings.substack.com/p/tolkien-is...

On yet another watch-through of Spirited Away. I've seen this film 100 times, and I'll watch it another hundred if I can.

When you first joined the Tolkien Community and getting into Tolkien's works with others... what helped you dive in? What made you feel welcome? What enticed you into sharing your thoughts on Tolkien's writing with others?

I may regret this, but for every like, I'll give a fact about the "Hunt for Gollum" story from the text.

Happiest birthday to the man who introduced me to faërie, as well as rest, recovery, and consolation, who is my first favorite storyteller and subcreator, and whose works have been my constant source of comfort since I was 6: Hayao Miyazaki.

Prepare for Studio Ghibli stuff today!

Happy 134th birthday to the man, the myth, and the legend that is J.R.R. Tolkien. Every year, today, we get to celebrate the man who gave us The Lord of the Rings and so much more. What brought you to Middle-earth? Cheers to the Professor! 🍻

Stealing this excellent question from @nateanite.bsky.social, asker of excellent questions:

What are your absolute necessities to pack when attending a Moot (or even a Con)?

I've been wanting to revisit a moment in Tolkien's Legendarium for comfort today, and I have my usual preferred passages for this, but I want to hear what others go to as well. What are your favorite joyful moments to return to in the Legendarium?

Since it’s Spooky Day, what are your favorite eerie, haunting, or horror-tinged moments, places, creatures, or passages from Tolkien’s Legendarium (or his other works)?
