More of a protest slogan, actually. From the Mumsnetters of Rivendell.

🤣🤣

I keep trying to stop, but then I thought about a suffragette colour scheme. Also on a mug.

Gefa Mumsnetters of Rivendell þýðingu einhvers staðar, jafnvel í einkaskilaboðum? Google myndaleit finnur ekki lausn. Öfug þýðing í gegnum Tengwar-umritara er að aukast með bulli. Ég veit ekki einu sinni hvort ég sé að nota rétta mállýsku frá réttu tímabili í sögu Miðjarðar hvort sem er. Ég þarf að halda áfram með daginn og er farin að þjást af FOMO. Vinsamlegast hjálpið. ❤

I've had a go at the tengwar with paper and pencil but can't make it out.

At least we know we are not alone.

I'm baffled as well. It's because it's an image not a string of text which can easily be copied and automatically translated.

@DrSoupDragonsFriend It’s worrying how reliant we’ve become on online translators on this thread. @Chersfrozenface ’s idea of going back to pencil and paper is the only option.
I need to get back to work.

Krosspóstað! Frábært. Þakka þér fyrir.

@NewNameIRL Sorry to put you to all that effort. Especially as the orcs are so troublesome at this time of year - I'm sure you have better things to do.

@NewNameIRL Another x post! Oops.

1. I probably should have sent that from the official group address! I'll keep the group open just in case there are any more Tengwar crises in the future.
2. I needed an excuse to procrastinate. (Hopefully avoiding another crossposting this time!!!)

PS. Orcs, AIFL - doesn't stop does it?!

I'm jealous! Still waiting for mine to dispatch, as it's not due until between Wednesday and Sunday! I need to see how the t shirt fits before I order more!

I'm hoping to receive my Grimut Gerbils t-shirt before my first WRN meet up 😁

We have so far raised £11.40 for Sex Matters - I did set profit to the minimum for all the products, so this is not going bring down the patriarchy but hey ho.

I've just tried to translate "Aston University's data policies are dangerous" into Dothraki.

Apparently it's "Aston University's data policies are zhowak"
