“‘That bastard has just walked into the place!’ she hissed. ‘Reacher Gilt! I’ll just kill him and join you for the pudding …’ ‘You can’t do that!’ hissed Moist. ‘Oh? Why not?’ ‘You’re using the wrong knife! That’s for the fish! You’ll get into trouble!’”

Inspiration: Rib and Spine Art Costume by TRMN
Updated Links 2019
This creation, titled “the Rib Blouse”, is by Japanese photographer TRMN. The Japanese to English translation is really poor, but it look like this art piece is made out of leather and ribbons.
From Lost in E Minor here:
For those into avant-garde fashion, this ‘rib-cage’ top should command your immediate attention. It was originally designed by Japanese illustrator Tetzco for a collection of illustrations he called ‘Internal Organ Neurosis’.
The drawings incorporated bones, muscles, internal organs, blood vessels and various other body parts to produce some ingenious and rather out-of-this-world clothing.
They, in turn, inspired a Japanese photographer who goes by the moniker TRMN. She took it upon herself to transform one of Tetzco’s illustrations, titled Rib Blouse, into an anatomical reality.

i am the harbinger of the Companions, Arch-mage, the listener of the dark brotherhood, thane of all 9 holds, master of the thieves guild, nightingale, werewolf, dragonborn… and this is still my proudest moment
the fact that at the council of elrond glorfindel is like “just throw the ring into the ocean” is so funny to me after reading the silmarillion just because it feels like the subtext is him being like “yeah let’s try maglor’s patented and tested method: Just Yeet The Accursed Fucking Thing Into The Water”
frodo baggins the iconic reluctant hero who saved the entirety of arda deserves so much better than “sam gamgee is the real hero” i said what i said
#yes!!!!!! its not that sam’s contributions shouldn’t be appreciated #but frodo bore like impossible psychological torment and despair #and yet clowns still act like this because #he does actually crack and struggle under the stress #and he doesn’t have some aragorn style battle scene #but GO OFF i guess
“Frodo deserved all honour because he spent every drop of his power of will and body, and that was just sufficient to bring him to the destined point, and no further. Few others, possibly no others of his time, would have got so far.” –J. R. R. Tolkien, Letter 192
Let’s be real, at least half the reason people refuse to see Frodo as the “real hero” of the story is because he actively chooses non-violence and mercy.
I remember some YouTube commenter writing “Frodo is so overrated, he never even kills anyone” and if that doesn’t win the award for Most Impressive Failure to Get the Point, I’m not sure what does.
some little hobbit child listening to a story: geez did Frodo even do anything
all the adults in the room: no doN’T
samwise gamgee vaulting in through the window: FIRST OF ALL
i just pictured Sam somehow managing to do this despite having been dead for like 500 years.
he just. reanimates and jumps through windows whenever anyone trash-talks Mr. Frodo. he is a plump, truculent ghost with a saucepan and a grandfatherly scolding on hand at all times.
