stedes queer awakening (featuring calypso) #OFMDRareShips #OFMD #OFMDfanart

*wakes up in a cold sweat 1 week after RD show* I need silver sneakers.

Pick up the nearest book, turn to p.42, and post the second sentence: “Obviously trolls.” (From an illustrated edition of The Hobbit, by JRR Tolkien)

Woah Mary Allamby is on Threads

have you seen the foot touch today

I’m not done talking about Rhys’s show (maybe ever). But I wanna talk about the comedy itself. I wanna start by talking about how Rhys’s comedy subverts expectations in the best possible way.

Girlboss.

Yeah, this is me…

“So I don’t have to be worthy I no longer try to be good It didn’t keep me safe like you told me that it would.” - Florence and the Machine, Sympathy Magic (Screaming these lines with a few thousand other people felt pretty fucking good)

Obviously, Rhys Darby and Florence Welch are VERY different, but seeing them back-to-back really drove home how artists can bring us hope in dark times. These are two performers who care deeply about using their art to bring people together. And Rhys is right: AI will never do that.

I’m gonna start calling thirst traps “owl cabinets” and no one can stop me.

Welp, better go find a vessel. ✌️

He’s like one of those sunlight lamps.

this is hanging on the door of the inn btw

Woke up and I still feel like my insides are full of glitter. Rhys Darby is a very, very funny man.

The inside of my brain is just Eliza Doolittle singing “I could have danced all night” on repeat.

D’you ever think about Ed excitedly running to show Stede a new patch of gray hair or a new wrinkle on his face because he never thought he’d live this long, and now aging feels like a victory?

When I decided Ed was gonna be a sculptor in this story, I knew Stede was going to have a moment connecting with him through his work. It’s one of the first things I described to @aliassamm.bsky.social, and the art is just indescribably beautiful. So lucky to have you as a collaborator!

nose to nose with a new best friend (I don't think I would have ever finished this piece had it not been adopted. Thank you to super kind @grumpyk2.bsky.social for giving me reason to brave my feels and revisit this one.) #ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath

Waking up to Gregory Alan Isakov and Sylvan Esso releasing a cover of Mazzy Star's Fade Into You!!! I'm set for the day! The rest of the week! The weekend! I have new GAI content and I will be listening on repeat for days. youtu.be/JqxukzCXVA8?...

Tried to text a friend an empathetic “oh shit!” Phone corrected to “oh smut!”

Look at that donor number, ya’ll. That’s 583 people in our crew (and yeah, if your mom on stuff, she’s crew now). There are so many of us, and we are capable of making a difference.

Obvs Stede would never say this about teal but the bitchery is so on point that my brain immediately said OMG THIS IS AN AU! Obvs Ed and crew work the game store and Stede and crew work the suit store! Lmaooooo omg the Badmintons could totally be the bad suit overpriced jewelry guys! 🤣

So, I reckon what makes Ed happy is... you. You make Stede happy. (I never actually put this up myself! Finished adopted sketch thanks to super adored @kellykat53.bsky.social!) #ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath

I suddenly had the urge to paint a ceramic trinket dish...unfortunately I only had my tablet, so......... 🫴✨ #ofmd #ofmdfanart #ourflagmeansdeath

“Planet Earth: You are a crew.” — Christina Koch, 4/11/26 youtu.be/59ccesBAOv0?... I can’t watch this without thinking of our own crew, and what it means to belong to something. I transcribed a bit so ya’ll can read.

do you think paul the real estate novelist who never had time for a wife and davy who’s still in the navy and probably will be for life have explored each other’s bodies?

That there is Ed and Stede’s son.

50% of my feed is people talking about the wonder and beauty of space travel. The other 50% is raft erection jokes. All these posts are from the same people.

Spoiler: They could not. 🏳️‍🌈🏴‍☠️🏳️‍⚧️

Bride Ed and Bride Stede tenderly shouting their vows to each other while fighting off the entire English Navy. Ed stabs the guy who gets blood on Stede’s chiffon.

Ok, one more! When Fang and Auntie start dating (they’re endgame, btw), Zheng goes full teenage “I hate my parental figure’s new boyfriend.” But when she tries to recruit someone to help break them up, everyone refuses. As scary as Zheng is, no one is willing to make Fang cry (he’s smitten)!

So anyone reading Forever is a Feeling knows that I believe that Jeffrey! Fettering! deserves nice things, including a wild night with Annie and Mary that he will never forget. He doesn’t even clock that they could kill him in his sleep, he thinks they’re absolutely charming ladies. #OFMDRareShips

Forever is a Feeling Ch. 4 is coming soon! Have a snip. #WIPWednesday #OFMDFanfic

Y’know how sometimes ppl get sad that people in their fandom are moving on to other fandoms? Yeah, no one is complaining about the fans moving on to Artemis II. Space fandom is for everyone.

Are you a fellow pirate who would like to see Rhys Darby perform in Boston? Hit me up -- I have an extra ticket with your name on it!

Far side of the Moon by Artemis II

Yeah. This is how I feel looking at Artemis II.

If you like all this space stuff but feel like there isn’t enough Ed and Stede, this fic is waiting for you! And the podfic is def the best way to enjoy it!!! #OFMDFanfic

Motivation Monday #ofmd

If anyone has a source on Rachel’s suit (or vibe), please share!

And if you’re wondering… our total for three fundraisers over the last 14 mos is now over $225,000. ART CAN CHANGE THE WORLD.

First crescent earth photo since 1972.

No spoilers in this, just a story about kissing Hugh Jackman.

Just so you know, NASA Ed and Stede watched the Artemis II launch from home. They wanted to be there in person, but they’re both nearing 90, and they don’t travel as well as they used to. Alma’s kid showed them how to get the stream up on their TV (even though Ed insisted he could do it himself).

Imagine the quarantined Dunkies they’d have onsite to get the astronauts their iced coffees before blastoff What a lost opportunity

When you think about it, the moon is just Earth’s pet rock

From a Barbie Movie AU that I swear I will get back to. It’s very silly and also means a lot to me. #WIPWednesday #OFMDFanfiction

My Uber driver goes “Ma’am, men will never approach you with all those face barriers.” I was like “Thank you! I know! It’s great advice, share it with every woman you know!” And he goes “Oh, I, uh, didn’t mean it as a compliment.”
