The tragedy of the women of the Indoh family is how they lose their sons. Hikaru’s grandma losing Hikaru’s dad, Hikaru’s mom losing Hikaru.

its so hard to talk about how traumatic it is to watch somebody be claimed by dementia without going "well i cant complain because at least i wasnt the one losing my mind (for now)" but that shit fucks you up so much. that ghost is going to haunt me for the rest of my life and all i can do is hope it Stays a ghost

im really upset 😢

i wish i had a mom cause mine is always taken her evilness on me all cause i had my hair ties on my door knob like she always being abusive to me and to my cats and sometimes to my chickens like i never had s good decent loving mom 😢, i always get stuck with a evil abusive mom that always complains about the stupidest things that i do or don't do 😢, honestly the only mom that is motherly to me is my grandma even if she's those judgy christian types of grandma she is like if she weren't a christian i would move in with her and my grandpa 😢,

i wish it were the 28th already so that i could be around my grandma and my grandpa even though i'll have to deal with my evil dad and his evil sister but it's whatever like least they don't ever threatened me like my evil mom does like i don't know why she bother to have me if she always treats me like a burden 😢,

like she even starts with me over me wanting lotion for my severe ecezma like i can't help it that i need it all the time it's not my fault that i have ecezma i didn't ask to have it or to be born i didn't ask for any of it 😢

i didn’t realize until later on that dads are much more present in this series

why are my roommates fighting about the existence of god..... it's 10pm just go to bed

here's some eriador nandor as nomads in the dunland area

(somewhat inspired by cave creature thingol)

i feel like they would favor varda as Lord of Arda over manwe, since without the treelight, their only light source would be the light of her stars + her creations are basically the only ones they're guaranteed to see every day/night.

some groups of the eriador nandor (namely lenwe's group) created glowy starlight tattoos (like a wearable version of feanor's artificial gems) as a dedication to varda (and a convenient light source). and since it's mostly dark except for the starlight, they have purple/sable face paint for war/hunting to enhance the glowy starlight effect. they mostly stop doing this after the rising, though, since the sun/moonlight makes the contrast less effective than regular green/brown camo, and it becomes more of a traditional than practical thing. (maeglin got his color scheme from the sable paint)

eol is one of the former-nomadic-nandor laegrim who migrated sometime in the first age and ended up in nan elmoth (his starlight tattoos eventually faded bc he spent too much time either indoors or in a very dark magic forest and also he was evil so varda stopped recharging him or something)

the rising of the moon and sun + morgoth + men + migration of laegrim leads to an erosion of nandorin nomadic culture (since its a lot harder to wander around mostly-peacefully stargazing when the continent is suddenly full of orcs and men) and by the third age there are like three nandorin nomads left around the southern coastal region

the oldest nandor (born between cuivienen and the rising) are more cave-creature-y, with semi-translucent skin, really big dark blue eyes (like the waters of cuvienen at night), and extra good night vision but worse normal light and color vision. the ones born after the rising have normal skin and eyes, though most of them still have the white/silver teleri hair.

PJ, yawning: gigi? what's wrong? GRIFFIN, sobbing: i'm sorry pop pop, i'm sorry, i know it's late, i just-. i need-. PJ: take a breath, baby. can you get to the train station? GRIFFIN: yeah huh. PJ: i'm sending you money right now. you come home.

????? ok fuck me ig this year is crazy

i will never date/live with/marry a man who can't do the chores. im not going to babysit him, i need a functional human male, not a child.

As per the last post's tags: stuff I got / am getting from my family

My grandma gave me this heirloom the other day. 14k gold. I don't really intend to wear it, but it's so pretty & I wanna have it hung up in my room maybe. It'd be a shame for it to live in a bag all its life.

Found this candle yesterday at my dad's place & I can't take it Yet (bc we're not allowed to take anything of potential worth from the estate until probate is settled) but my sister said I could have it. So. 🥺

ren faire drama is literally so funny. always

I have an announcement

Boyfriend is no longer my boyfriend

He’s been prompted to fiancé

He proposed in the middle of a road trip overlooking the beach and it was hilarious. He’s got Zero skills at being sneaky about things so I knew to get my nails done ahead of time. Also he was nervous AF.

So we walk along the beach bridge, I’m taking photos of the sunset, and from behind me he goes “Carter, stop walking now!”, and there he was with the ring.

He did manage to hide that it was my great-great Aunt Gusty’s engagement ring, which he got stones for and had all fancied up and resized.

Anyway. We can’t stop giggling like idiots.

Trying to ask my grandma if she knows anything about Finnish folklore/mythology as I learned about it recently, and she loves talking about our family history but all she said was "...Does the Communism count?"

...Grandma 😅

fun fact, my Jewish grandma who's a 7th generation in Israel, who's family escaped from like half of the Arab countries in the world, is also Palestinian. because that was the name of Israel before we got our independence in 1948 and the people who lived here were Palestinian. which is my way of telling you that just because there's something before 48 that says palestine, doesn't mean it's evidence that the Palestinians were here before the Jews because Jews who lived here were also, shocking, Palestinian.

my grandpa tricked us into spending thanksgiving with him and his girlfriend and her family by telling my mom he was going to be alone today bc his gf was busy and then calling her back like actually sue is coming 😊 and so is her sister 😊 and her nephew

my parents are watching hgtv again and its making me think about what i could do with $10 million dollars
