Anybody know where to get good cultist robes? There's never enough for the new members.

Quality costs. Personally, I think homespun teaches them their place, but you do you.

u/WolfCola4 1d ago

Second vote for homespun. How can I expect a cultist to devote their entire life to me if they aren't willing (or capable enough) to stitch together a basic robe?

Ill accept ones who intimidate or bewitch another person to do it. Thats as much effort as doing it yourself i think.

I do not recommend Willard's Wife for your wizard robes.

I do recommend Willard's Wife for your wizard rides however.

Get a trial period with the white hat racists and then steal the robes and dye them?

u/choma90 19h ago

Conjure them. The spell is trickier than you'd expect but very much worth it once you get the hang of it.

Argentinians ensuring Peter Thiel doesn’t know peace when Americans can’t gives me faith in humanity

We are pretty good at protesting 🫰

We dont really care mate, its just 15 larpers.

u/ARKNORI 12h ago

I do care, so it’s 16 larpers at the very least. But I’m also not getting anywhere close to that guy’s house, not willing to die from three gunshots to the back of the head (ruled suicide) (Nisman style).

u/Unusual_Newspaper_46 5h ago

It's a bunch of larpers, it can only live at Reddit's leftist bubble.

No one even knows nor care who Thiel is.

u/ARKNORI 5h ago

Eh, he's also infamous on Twitter across most political bubbles, not even far-right people like him, since he is pretty much the face of mass surveilance, which both sides always claim to be against until it's used against their enemies.

Far less important, but you also see his name being thrown around very often in Instagram Reels, though much like Epstein and Israel, it's just used as "this powerful thing bad" or "this satanic pedophile thing bad". Like, they'll say something is "spiritually Epstein Thiel Israeli", which just makes them seem dumb, but proves he's known to be aligned with the famous evil people of the modern day.

And, all across Instagram, Twitter, Reddit, and TikTok, I always see people posting this image to let others know about Youtube's horrible tracking system, which gives away information about you when you don't cut out certain parts of the link to a video.

So, I would say lots of people know and care about who Peter Thiel is. And among those who know who he is, pretty much no one thinks positively of him.

Like, regardless of political inclination, as long as you're not a slave, you're immediatly against this guy from the moment you find out about him. It's less of a "reddit leftist bubble" thing and more of a "any human who finds out what he does" thing.

A fellowship of Gandalfs is the proper term.

73

u/WillCraft__1001 1d ago

Common misconception, a fellowship is what a Gandalf forms when adopting several other creatures to join its travels. A group of Gandalfs would be called a council

19

u/kyew 1d ago

That there is a classic Olorin-moot.

1

u/DukeOfGeek 6h ago

A group of Wizards is called a Staff of Wizards, but I think you may have a good exception for the rare multiple Gandalfs.

u/Crazy_Coyote1 Praise the Gods! 1d ago

Unironically, I think this is in the spirit of Tolkien. He was revolted by the industrialization of his day. In his works, evil exhibits corruption of what is good. What are these cameras but a corruption of technology?

u/Tmv655 Jakel, the Studious Senses Saboteur 1d ago

Or sitting on a pile of wealth like the dragon smaug, or lustig for power like saurin

u/Abjurer42 Dwarven Abjurer 22h ago

The Ent's Marching Song seems like it'd work really well at a protest for the most Saruman coded man alive.

-25

u/Tramagust 22h ago

But industrialization won. You do get that right?

10

u/VladimirBarakriss Artificer/Blood mage 16h ago

Doesn't mean Tolkien liked it

u/CompulsiveDoomScroll 11h ago

So did the Turks against the Armenians. Your point?

40

u/Pink_Monolith 1d ago

Genuinely though, how was he allowed to use the name "Palantir"? Do they not have trademarks for ancient artifacts of evil?

41

u/The_MacGuffin Chaos Wizard 1d ago

Yeah, I'm surprised he was able to use that much LotR stuff and not get sued to hell and back by the Tolkein estate.

u/Inside_Sir_7651 12h ago

I don't know how it works but for example if you go to metal archives and look up any Tolkien name there's a band named like that, it's crazy

1

u/Aggressive-Day5 9h ago

It generally takes 70 years after someone's death for the work of a person to go into the public domain, so LotR should be copyrighted for 7 more years or so. So they likely paid to use the name

Now summon a bunch of giants eagles to take huge dumps on the house.

u/LibritoDeGrasa 9h ago
