In the Lord of the Rings fandom there’s a persistent debate whether balrogs, or Durin’s Bane specifically, have wings. The text in Fellowship is ambiguous whether what it is describing are literal wings or something else wing-like.

        sorry, i see that i did a racism. i just felt like winding you up a little bit before copping to it.

        there’s a religion that claims a large portion of samoa belongs to it. i’ve had bad experiences with that religion. i don’t want to open that can of worms but this kind tax fraud type behavior is like, average behavior for the religion (to the point that they had to make it part of sermons that they “don’t believe in tax fraud” even though they have (or had) secret religious ceremonies swearing vengeance against the US government like i said can of worms. cults are fun to study but less fun to be in).

        my bigotries are a little less about race and a little more about who has stabbed me in the back.
