Everyone has something they can’t stop themselves from nerding out over - but often it’s hard to find people to talk to about it. So go ahead, share your interests, and tell us about them!

    Okay, now I must ask - do you have more Tolkien Lore incest facts to share? Because I certainly didn’t expect that one!

      Most of the bad things to happen to elves and men (of which the events of LotR are kind of just a blip on the radar) are because a long time ago (even by elven standards) an asshole jewel-smith named Feänor got too obsessed with Galadriel’s hair because it looked like the light that came from two magical trees.

      Edit: Feänor is Galadriel’s Half-Uncle.
