So I guess with me trying to be active here it might be useful for me to give a quick Intro post.
I'm into #vr #scifi , languages especially #japanese and #swedish . Some of my fave video games are #KSP #Stationeers #cyberpunk and #subnautica .
I was into decentralization before it was a grift and I deeply value authentic connection.
Some of my Fave authors are #BeckyChambers and #JRRTolkein .
I also am big on feminist theory and intersectionality with disability.
Gil-galad was an elven-king.
Of him the harpers sadly sing;
the last whose realm was fair and free
between the Mountains and the Sea.
His sword was long, his lance was keen.
His shining helm afar was seen;
the countless stars of heaven's field
were mirrored in his silver shield.
But long ago he rode away,
and where he dwelleth none can say;
for into darkness fell his star
in Mordor where the shadows are.
@le_friwi_56 Wonderful book.
I remember it so much from my childhood. There was the #Jackanory version which was my introduction to #JrrTolkein.
I've read it many times, once in a single sitting...!

Found this lesser known book from J.R.R. Tolkien at a local flea market for $0.50 cents - I just couldn't pass it up for that. Besides, it looks new (unread), and has really nice cover art.

When thinking of #phonaesthetics in English it is most common to think of the phrase "cellar door" as stated by #JRRTolkein in his 1955 lecture "English and Welsh".
Perhaps you are a fan of the late 80's mini-series #TheSingingDetective so it might be ELBOW.
What is your favourite sounding phrase, in English or any other language?
