4/ One of the primary purposes of a fantasy—literary or otherwise—is to stretch your mind and work your imagination like a muscle, so demanding that every elf or dwarf in a Tolkien production looks just like what you have in your mind’s eye is PRECISELY THE OPPOSITE OF THE POINT — PolitiTweet.org

3/ I’m reading the amazing SHADOWS OF THE APT series, and from the jump I was embarrassed for the critics who said the Mantids of @aptshadow are “elves” No, they’re Mantids, and one probably shouldn’t be reading fantasy at all if that feels like arduous mental gymnastics for you — PolitiTweet.org

5/ And honestly if J.R.R. Tolkien were to rise from the dead and start screaming on Hannity that “ALL THE ELVES MUST BE WHITE” I would want him to go take a flying leap as well, as it would merely be another instance of a great artist failing their audience rather than vice versa — PolitiTweet.org
