the star of ofmd 2x01 is stede's jaunty little diy neckerchief

Roach is the only one demonstrating proper technique when talking to the cops "Don't know anything about any of this or any of the people involved"

So we all know that Stede 100% expected to die when he ran away to be a pirate the first time and it was at its core an expensive and fanciful suicide attempt with plausible deniability right Like that started to change when he met Ed but even when Chauncey abducts him he's still like ".... yeah"

I just can't watch the scene of Chauncey and Stede in the woods and think "this is a story without homophobia". Stede as a monster, a defiler of beautiful things, an inhuman corrupter? Be serious. #ofmd

We have until May 22 to submit public comment! Note glaad’s advice in the article about maintaining your privacy. I used my initials and the address of a county govt building.

Wow who could've seen this coming, except everyone paying attention...

You will live a much richer and happier life if you embrace the idea that people are not just pretending to have different tastes than you out of spite

in this house we love and appreciate edward teach 😌 (inspired by @edssnaketattoo.bsky.social's stede version)

Wow imagine if Ed knew that Stede had said this to those guys from the pilot

boring! next! whoa, way too personal! come on, spit it out! terrible! all of these stories are very bad

we have like 3 queer shows left and yet people feel the need to compare them and pit them against each other even the ONLY thing they have in common is the queerness, just watch whatever the fuck you enjoy and let others enjoy their stuff too it's really not that hard

it's always interesting to me that some people think ed was "out of character" at the start of season 2 because he was already passively suicidal, violent, emotional. it just wasn't depicted too explicitly and he obviously got worse when he lost his only hope that he could have a different life

In their eyes, there is no non-white working class. The *authentic* working class according to Blue Labour is some middle class homeowning racist who runs a plumbing company, has England flags on their van and talks in a regional accent.

lol working class is a stand-in for white guys who wear plaid shirts.

working class is when white man big

It’s always a tell when pundits mean “working class white voters” but just write “working class voters”.

I honestly think this is just about the (deeply weird) gendered way in which work is imagined. Steel is masculine, and done by authentic real members of the working class (white men). Academia is effeminate, politically suspect, and employs chiefly women. Ergo it cannot possibly have value.

This is a great thread in response to the stop talking about climate op-ed, and I think this underscores a lot of what the bros believe. Working class can only mean white working class.

it's so clear that when dems talk about "winning back the working class," they mean "winning over middle class white male republicans"

“Juror 96, let me buy you a steak, and let’s talk …”

On the latest episode of #MindTheTagsPod, Alexandra Romanoff joins Emily to discuss her article about fanfiction for #Vogue and her favorite things about writing in fandom communities. #podcast #fanfiction

I hate how this is framed as “men feel distress when they can’t take the provider” role and no time is given to “these men only want a woman they can control”. It sounds so noble, doesn’t it? Providing. But make no mistake, 100 percent of these men are looking for a power imbalance in their favor.

"If she has her own house, what will she need me for?" I don't know, dude, maybe be cool and fun to be around and be happy for her success instead being whiny little sad-ass troll about it? www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

ok, i think my thing about the trolley problem in project hail mary...it's just not really about that. it's not about whether stratt is justified. the point is to establish that grace isn't willing to die for earth so you know what it means when he does choose to die for rocky.

Hey #OFMD, stand for socialist democrats and progressive politics? Would you do me a favor and follow my city's candidate to be the next mayor and fight for rent control, fight against ICE and lots of other good things? #Providence (he's also pretty fun)🐇 @davidmoralespvd.bsky.social

Folks, when somebody posts about one atrocity, the discussion does not have to be expanded to every atrocity in the world.

Whatever helps y'all be friends, I guess! 😅

okay legit question would the jim/ed buddies be interested in a 65K+ jim/ed fic that's largely just a series of vignettes about their relationship growing and establishing? it's a modern au with themes of divorce, trauma, pining while fucking, and ed and jim very messily supporting each other

interest check: what if i made sticker sheets of a bunch of these dumb doodles of Ed? #ofmd #ourflagmeansdeath

Everyone knows Hollywood is fucked, but most people don't actually know why. The studios used the strikes as cover to cancel a full 1/3rd of TV production across the board. 1/3 of TV cast & crew are out of work. Fully. There just aren't jobs for them. Many are people who made your favorite shows.

how it feels to love s2 of ofmd and hold it in my heart and be unbothered by those who don’t get it

Mutes do capture alt text. (This is about a variety of things and not directed at anyone or anything in particular, I’ve just seen the concept come up a few times in the last few weeks and thought it bore mentioning)

General reminder that expecting people to tag every post onto bsky is not super realistic but that you can mute words as well as tags! Expecting people to use alt text on images they post or repost otoh, especially a screenshot of text, IS super realistic.

Look ma, I'm on a podcast! Thanks for having me, @neverleftpodcast.bsky.social ! This was such a blast 💖

i hate your friends

Now's a great time to support LaVonnia Moore, a rural Georgia librarian who was fired because she approved a library display (set up by community members) that included a book featuring a transgender character. Her legal case enters the mediation process this week. 📚 www.gofundme.com/f/help-lavon...

genuinely unnerving to me that the palantir guy is taika waititi's wario

Now that's a rare pair... Chauncey/Roach 📷: samba's insta

they tried a little witchcraft with Karl and the crew. Someone here was trying to turn into a bird im just not sure which one. #ofmdachi

Shipping update: we are STILL working through the international shipping from multiple countries. If you haven't received items yet, that's probably why - so hang tight for a little bit longer. 🏴‍☠️🏳️‍🌈❤️

james was the only journalist to actually reach out to us and get facts before writing about the craft fair!

new zealander everlee wihongi was due to meet with her lawyer yesterday. then ICE moved her to their most notorious tent facility in texas: 3000 people, highest death rate, most sexual assaults. and today, she disappeared off the system. please RT: www.webworm.co/everleehasdi...

Hey all, I was hoping we'd make it to check day without running out of groceries, but it's ten days out and we're down to brown rice. If anyone can spare a few dollars I'd super appreciate it - just need some proteins and veg, etc. Links in the next post:

I feel like it’s always a good time to share these pics from Nancy Hennah’s instagram.

ofmd edits getting over 200k likes on tiktok in 2026??? oh we’re so back

I still miss OFMD
