Can't have a #221bcon weekend without The Real Milk and Honey

Fuuuuuuck I think my (old, shitty) laptop just died in the middle of a long article I need done ASAP. took it to a guy but I didn't have long to wait for him before I just give up and start writing it all over again FML

Omg flashbacks! Can't wait for #221bcon

Stede is obliged to unleash his vengeance on a trifling vengeancee! (Recently finished up comm for wonderful @debphotog.bsky.social!) #ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath

I just spent $63 on gas for my very normal sized car 💀💀

Look at this "hat" omg 😂

I love this so much 😂

The grocery store is crowded and my cart is broken and I might murder something wish me luck

Kraken pocket square!!

Little brat + artist lighting

I'm getting secondhand stress from all the NHL social media managers that don't make decisions but have to monitor the accounts for the responses to all these bad decisions their bosses are making. "Who's your favorite female athlete" out of nowhere? Woof.

For me, it's less about the "journalists need to stay out of fandom" reaction and more that sweeping staff cuts and deprioritization of culture coverage have made it even harder for journalists to write about fandom in the complex, thorough way it deserves

But the circumstances of the industry (and editor biases) have shut out knowledgable voices. So much "fandom coverage" now feels like reinventing a very basic wheel; I feel like my and my peers' work is being actively erased. Fandom *should* be covered—but you need to know what you're talking about.

I actually like this??? And it makes me hopeful

I wish AO3 had a feature where you could search fic comments for your own comment. I'm ALWAYS finding fics I don't remember but then I see either a bookmark or kudos that means I've already read it. I'd love to know what past-me's comment was.

I think about this tweet every time I feel something online start to curl its annoying little grip into my head

Anyway, let's look at the beautiful man who's actually calling out the NHL

Join me with walking into the sun now… #hollanov #heatedrivalry youtu.be/LfWXnvONS9c?...

Samba oh my god, he isn’t feeding us, he is stuffing us today🤤

Not me already crying over women's hockey and the game hasn't even started yet Those stupid promo videos get me every time

Happy Friday the 13th, I'm still awake at 230 am finishing work that's due before I go away tomorrow for a few days. I'm a great planner. 🙃🙃🙃

Out for an early morning surf! Thanks for the prompt @petrichorca.bsky.social 💜 #OFMD #OFMDfanart

Man #HeatedRivalry authors are really killing it with the social media/group chat fics 🔥 I'm constantly wondering why I can't be that funny

Death is terrible at his job. He must be a man because he keeps getting our orders wrong.

I turned my HR group chat into a pitch for OFMD 😏

Be kind to yourself. You are starting another weekday during a brutally hard time in the world. Take time to acknowledge that, feel it, then keep going. The only way out is through.

Ok I've read like the top 10 hollanov fics sorted by kudos. What are y'all reading, I need recs!

For work I have to write an article about how great AI is and how it's so current and progressive to have AI majors popping up in colleges Cool cool cool so easy

Sometimes all you can do is make the world 0.0000000000001% less awful by being a good person and it feels very meaningless but it’s also the only thing that really matters

Today's hot take: I *hate* waffleknit clothes

I solved the 'it's still the Year of the Snake, but everyone thinks it's Year of the Horse' problem. It's now the month of the Snorse. #sygnin

BREAKING. Enormous news in the hockey romance world... I am thrilled to announce that CHECK, PLEASE!: YEAR FIVE, a brand new volume of Check, Please! will be serialized in 2026. #omgcp 🏒🥧💕

Me, looking directly at 2026.

Fandom synergy! #ofmd #heatedrivalry

Here’s to 2026

Me watching #heatedrivalry episodes 1-4: ooh I love this Me watching episode 5: THIS IS EVERYTHING TO ME YES MORE PLS I wanna yell about it with people

They're the loudest at the party. And the first and last to karaoke. There's an annual bet in the friend group over how long before Ed calls the nibbles 'whores derves'. Stede suspiciously wins the bet every year. It's three years before their friends catch onto the fuckery. #ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath

Made the massive miscalculation of going shopping hungry and now I've got the shakes and have 3 different lunches in my very full cart

I don't think I've ever put this one up on here! Feb 2024 for #TakeTwoTuesday! #ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath
