HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEOWULF!!!  

(technically it was yesterday but I could only finish it now ;u;)

Anyway, since I can’t get my procrestinating butt to do anything (not even the things I want to do) I couln’t come up with anything better for him, which is a shame because little Beo is one of my favourites. He deserves better but I can’t control myself. Oof.

Happy birthday, best wolf boy! ❤️🐺🌙

The Beowulf movie is so bad, but you have to give the animators credit for the insane amount of creativity when censoring Beowulf’s dick

What books are next on your reading list?

Besides books I need to read for work...I'm trying to get my brother and I to read together. Mostly, he's suppose to read a Jane Austen book while I read Horatio Hornblower...

Instead, he's reading Beowulf while I'm reading Just Stab Me Now so you can see how that's going. 🤣

Are the dwarves in Tolkien's works actually anti-Semitic or is that another thing that comes from Norse myths? I don’t know how much of The Hobbit was based on Norse stuff (the premise and size of Thorin’s company come from Beowulf), but two of the famous dwarves from Norse myth are famous for their greed, Andvari and Fafnir. Andvari had a lot of gold and a cursed ring, and then when Fafnir got the ring, his greed was so great that he became a dragon (probably where the concept of dragon sickness comes from), and his presence is sometimes said to have poisoned the land.

Either way, modern dwarves seem to have mostly grown past the anti-Semitic stuff.

thoughts on goblins in the DRG universe?

(I don't really like goblins as a concept bc of antisemitic story behind them)

But would be cool to see other sentient little creatures in DRG that are not dwarves

Beowulf

Hrothgar: Beowulf! I'm so glad you're here! Finally, you can slay the monster Grendel! Hrothgar: Beowulf where is your sword? Beowulf:... Hrothgar: Beowulf please tell me you brought a sword.

I Am Grendel

I am Grendel

I hate the sound of laughter

It just leaves me angry after

I am Grendel

I like to be alone

I'm a monster with a heart of stone

I am Grendel

When I see someone having fun

I get the impulse to run

I am Grendel

I’ve been around

And Beowulf threw me to the ground

I am Grendel

All I need is love

But I only seem to get shoved

I am Grendel

Why can't anyone see?

They don’t get me

I am Grendel

Always misunderstood

No one ever believed in me and told me that I could

I am Grendel

No one understands

Always getting canned

I am Grendel

I don’t mean to be bitter

Too bad people never consider

I am Grendel

I get laughed at for the way I look

I get out of this world by reading books

I am Grendel

Did you pay attention to what you said?

Because of you I am dead

I am Grendel

I can’t keep going

The current is too strong and keeps flowing

I am Grendel

I've bled out

There is so much self doubt

I am Grendel

I don’t know what to do, I am lost

Their insults in my heart are permanently embossed

I am Grendel

I just wish it would stop

I'm never on the top

I am Grendel

I've never been shone

Just leave me alone

when jorge luis borges wrote in a copy of beowulf that he was working on translating, “beyond my anxiety, beyond this writing, the universe waits, inexhaustible, inviting.”

I like the wolf thing, I just copied a google pic though.  And that is all my homework for english.

Just some homework for English, I have to do a storyboard thing about Beowulf in 6 boxes. I'm not good at people and especially faces.
