A message from @immcouncil.org to all of you, our #fandommarket team:

someone get him some fidget toys asap

Was not expecting any #FandomMarket purchases for a while because UK, but they're already starting to arrive! Prints from @owltrousers.bsky.social I just framed for the wall

Sometimes I just think about all the creativity and community that came about because of 18 episodes of a silly show about pirates and 🥰🥹😭

30k likes on an OFMD tiktok in the year 2026 @hbomax.bsky.social the people yearn for OFMD s3….

People assume Ed Teach got this tattoo after Stede left him, but it was actually after a particularly heinous April Fools prank 😔

There's a lot of conservative politics rooted in the fundamental idea that accommodations of difference are "special treatment" at constant risk of being poached by the "undeserving", and that suffering is both an inevitable fact of life and virtuous. It's a contemptible social rot.

Everyone say happy birthday our Owl, who lives in an AU fic

The world is stupid, but I just watched a squirrel break into a car in the parking lot below me, steal a package of crackers, and escape to a nearby tree. So at least somebody is winning.

It's 2026, they should have invented a brain that doesn't wake you up at 5am with anxiety dreams by now

yeah i need five more seasons of the shetland pony and lesbian giraffe

Fuck M*x, but it's nice to see them again in the UK 🥹

Nigel Farage Is A Fucking Wanker It's 12:00PM

Sometimes you've simply got to [add description here] your way through the draft to get to the bit you really want to write 😌

Leading to one of my favorite exchanges 😁 #ofmd

Fic rec for a WIP by a new writer who I don't think is on bsky (hello if I'm wrong!) You don't need knowledge of F1 to enjoy (trust me, I have none) archiveofourown.org/works/818907...

Have you watched Deadloch yet? WATCH DEADLOCH. Just finished s2 on amazon last night and SO MANY incredible lines. SO MANY. And I found it genuinely moving. It reminds me of Our Flag Means Death. That "heartfelt but hilarious and surreal" space in story. Tho more crocs, less scurvy.

Heeeyyyy getting close! #OFMD

good morning

our flag means death is like yeah you actually can still be wholly loved and included in a community even if you have hurt people . you can still be forgiven and trusted as long as you demonstrate willingness to change and learn. you are not irredeemable. you’re not tainted for life. you’re lovable

The 2nd ever fanfic I ever wrote was totally in text messages, had some real heavy content, was the first thing of mine to be podficced, and ended up being the start of a 116k series. Pink Flags has 299 kudos and that honestly blows my tiny mind 🫠🫠 archiveofourown.org/works/50734591

Y'ever publish a fic then realise nearly a week on you forgot to tag is as modern AU...fixed now, but I hope no one was wondering how they forgot the anachronistic train station in canon

Who put Stede in charge of the Easter produce?

Apropos of nothing, 'death of the author' means interpreting a text independent of the writer's intentions, it isn't a get out of jail free card for supporting creators with horrible views.

Feel like by your late 30s you should be able to do away with the few days of 'what the fuck is wrong with me' and just immediately conclude 'it's obviously burnout', but nah

Deadloch needs 22-episode seasons. I want Deadloch in Space. Deadloch Christmas. A Very Special Deadloch Musical Episode.

Hey OFMD crew, we can make a tangible difference today by helping out Pirate Nana. This is a gfm Bix set up for them. I just confirmed with them it's still connected to their bank, so we can relieve a bit of pressure if you're able to help www.gofundme.com/f/help-pirat...

I will not be trifled with! So don't even think about trifling me! You're trifling me! I'm warning you! Don't trifle! Don't you trifle!

Dragging myself along towards the Easter long weekend.

My auction haul includes 3 different krakens, at what point does it officially become a collection?

He is getting a hat.

AMAZING JOB, EVERYONE: Crafters, bidders, hype team, mods, etc!!! #fandommarket Check your email for your invoice and instructions, and remember you can always round your donations up to increase our impact for @immcouncil.org !!

That “woohoo” is very important to me personally #ofmd

Did you know you can't take balloons into train stations? Stede didn't... A silly little quickly written fic for my pirate pals. archiveofourown.org/works/81590446

My main finding from several years of living in a house with no parking in front is that no one on earth complains about their job to customers as much as male delivery drivers.

Cool thing about our fandom is you can do something like, say, sign up for RBB despite having written only two fics, both this year and neither of them multi chapter, and justify it as exactly the type of thing Stede would do

👁️👁️🏳️‍🌈❓

Please tag your Deadloch spoilers for those of us showing incredible restraint in waiting to watch it with friends 😀

EXCUSE THE FUCK OUT OF ME

what if you watched a MAN turn into a SEAGULL and it gave you so much HOPE that it made you believe people can CHANGE including your EX

I've been watching the blackbird drama in my garden while wfh - there's a male that comes a few times a day and makes a big show of eating berries from the ivy, and two females that turn up and fight. Suddenly today there's a second male. There's an AU in here somewhere.

"that seems healthy, using a bit of fiction to help cover up trauma" lucius didn't have to call us out like that damn

I have many questions, and I demand answers to all of them immediately.

The "nobody's talking about" style post is really grating right now because like my brother in christ, we're all triaging horrors right now.

At this rate I'm gonna have to credit the bus to the office in my RBB fic, it is so far the location of almost all my ideas for it

Name altered 😎

It's Mother's Day in the UK, and my mum isn't perfect but she is the most open minded and accepting person on the planet. She's not far off 70 and disabled, but bigots are still likely to get whacked with a handbag. Forget sometimes how lucky I was and am to have that where it matters.

Two of my craft fair items - brooch/pendant with embroidered You Wear Fine Things Well Ed & Stede, and an oval embroidery hoop with the Revenge surrounded by her crew #OFMD #fandommarket
