So what? Most books sit on shelves unread until they are recycled by Half Priced Books. Might as well use them until they fall apart instead of display them to look smart.

Chicken soup for the soul, not the organs.
And I hope we’re imagining the same kind of suckerfish.

WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Movies & TV@hexbear.net•"If they made the Lord of the Rings movies today, Arwen would probably be BLACK"English5·2 days agoIn my personal opinion, those folks need to lighten up. We’re talking about a completely fictional realm where there is plenty of fantasy diversity expressed in other ways, written by a British man who was born in 1892. Enjoy it or don’t, but there really isn’t much foundation to assume that Tolkien was trying to be racist with his literary choices.
From the Wikipedia article on Tolkien and race:
In his personal life, he was anti-racist both in peacetime and during the two World Wars.
Sure, we can throw in some black characters in new productions of his work, but judging the man by modern standards is just looking for outrage.

People survive accidents all the time, far more than they die from them. It is confirmation bias that makes you feel like it is easy to die from one because people only focus on the bad ones. Normal injuries and close calls fly under the radar.
Go on, kiss the fish!
