few fun facts the lord of the rings universe started as a bed time story he told his son Christopher, which later evolved into the hobbit and the the magnum opus we have now.
another fun fact Tolkien was very much insecure about his writing and didn't want to publish it, till on one drunken night a friend of his stole the manuscript and sent it to the publishing group inspite of him.

Galadriel is loosely based on the professors wife "a being of pureness"
and Sauron his best friend "the best depiction of him inspite of him"

and Gandalf is loosely based on himself

I'm gonna present Nikola Tesla in front of the class

لول كيف البارحة كان ذكرى وفاته

So it's just like what they say "beauty is in the eye of the beholder"

Ig I'm watching fleabag again

I didn't get a single word watching the movie
But I was obsessed with this piece since the Big Bang

"Everything is more beautiful because we're doomed.
You will never be lovelier than you are now.
We will never be here again."

- Homer, Iliad

sua lumina, sidus

Everytime I pass by an orange tree, I remember the book and Palestine

Although I haven't read it yet

And that orange poem
