Introduce yourself with the name your parents almost gave you Hi, I’m Benjamin Seth. But my mom told another family member and they had a boy one month before I was born. They named him Seth. 😂

All rise for our national anthem 🏴‍☠️

Literally feel like gnawing at the walls while I wait for this Zoom job interview. I am so fucking stressed.

How soon can I get to Waco?

I don’t think we say this enough, but raise a glass to queen Mary! #ofmd #art

Five college classes. Okay, I’ll do the thing. The funny thing is that now I teach some of the same classes at my alma mater! - The Golden Age of Piracy - Historical Archaeology - Human Osteology/Forensics - The Great War - 20c. African American Intellectuals

Who’s ready for…. THE OFMD FANDOM CRAFT MARKET? Running March 5 through March 21, we’ll be raising money for the amazing @immcouncil.org!

Tag yourself: I’m DRAGGING MY ANCHOR

Made it out for one last grocery run before the snowpocalypse! I love living on the South but we do not have the infrastructure for “historic” winter weather events 😂🥶

Hey you. You’re good. Keep going.

Five jobs I’ve had 1. Plant nursery propagation tech 2. Machinist with a side of electronics 3. Seamstress 4. Nanny 5. College lecturer

As a historian who has written a lot about AmRev history. This looks so shitty. Fuck AI.

I really want to take a mental health day tomorrow, but we’re expecting snow this weekend that will probably cancel some classes next week. I wish I knew it wouldn’t throw my teaching plan too far off course. 😏

Having a tough evening because academia is bullshit. Please send emotional support pirates! 🏴‍☠️ #ofmd

STOP SCROLLING! You must watch before proceeding! #OFMD

Fun seeing everyone getting their tix to see rhysie! I wish I could have a redo of Raleigh last year with better weather and a better opener.

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.

How cool is your fandom? I don’t know about others, but ours raised more than $100,000 for trans youth last year! 🏴‍☠️🩷🤍💙

BTW when I say abolish ICE, I mean abolish it entirely and replace it with exactly nothing. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That's it.

Feeling sick after seeing the video on insta before I could get away from it. The last time I saw something like that on film was literally a doco on the N*zi invasion of Poland. I am angry, I am sad, I stand with Minneapolis.

Had to share this silly little drawing based on the meme to the right. I saw it and said, “Stede and Izzy!!” #ofmdfanart

I had big work/career things to deal with today and more on the way. I am so out of spoons.

Some good news! Democrats have removed all anti-trans provisions from the final appropriations bill– including those that would have blocked public funds for gender-affirming care and threatened funding for schools that support trans students. buff.ly/RBrUu7u

I have always been terrified of sharing my ofmd fanart. This is from three years ago! I want to start drawing again if I can get my chronic pain to chill.

A little family-owned Chinese restaurant called New China. Gone for about 20 years now, but such a beloved part of my childhood. Best damn homemade egg rolls and duck sauce.

Went out for a little shopping and came home with some new skincare and stuff to pamper myself with because 2026 is the year I quit shortchanging myself. 💅

I know I’m late to the party but I am currently obsessed with florence + the machine’s latest album. So much rage.

It’s Friday and a long weekend!Hooray!!!

Reminder to tell your broken brain to shut up and stop being mean to you. Listen to people you trust. 🤘☠️

Friends, Claudette Colvin—the 15-year-old who refused to give up her seat on a Montgomery bus in March 1955 & joined the federal case against bus segregation that went to the Supreme Court — died today at age 86. But there are lots of myths and mis-impressions about her. A short corrective thread:

Met a research student today that I’m working with this year and our interests are so perfectly aligned — we’re going to be such nerds!

oh god why the fuck did someone heat up fish in the faculty microwave 😫

Things are grim right now but as a reminder of who we are and why we fight, this is the US Women’s figuring skating champion.

I'm writing fanfic again!! Coffee is at hand and a draft is underway. Writing soundtrack is currently Anderson East's Delilah album. A little taste below! #ofmdfanfic

Whomever I get paired with is getting a piece of art that Nathan said he’d like to put up in his house!

The Crew For Life OFMD Fandom Gift Exchange sign up form is open! 🌈 forms.gle/CN87tQbgS6ut... 🌈 #GiftOFMD #ofmd #CrewForLife #PoisonIntoPositivity #OurFlagMeansDeath

Will there be VOD available for both previous and today’s BOF events? Asking for a friend who might treat themselves for their upcoming birthday. @siren-events.bsky.social

This is quite possibly my favorite scene of the entire series not only because of the beautiful writing and acting, but the way it was shot. The lighting! The mirrors! #BOF2 #ofmd

Even my little Finch guy is celebrating all the amazing thing about our fandom community! #ofmd

you ever feel like

I could list so so much here, but seriously—I finally CAME OUT as queer because of this show after years of uncertainty. It changed lives, y’all.

Maybe it’s the menopause causing the weird cravings, but I am dying for some thick chip-shop chips with garlic sauce from a kebab shop. I could also annihilate a kebab right now. This is from someone who doesn’t have an appetite most of the time and hates eating lunch.

Going to be starting hrt patches for surgical menopause because the night sweats have been gnarly. Any advice on what to expect is welcome!

I spent my first day back in the office just sorting through mounds of old papers, lecture notes, and stuff I had no need of keeping. Now all I want is a long nap and an order from my favorite Chinese takeaway. 😫

Fell into a patch of prickly pear cacti in my aunt’s garden when I was two 🌵

Did you hear that, guys? Roach sewed his own arm up! Sounds to me like sewing can be pretty tough.

Saw a skillshare class that looked cool, so I looked into memberships and course offerings. The whole first page was pushing AI for creatives. No thank you. 🤮

Started the Snufkin Moominvalley game on Switch this week and I love that the premise is basically ACAB 😂

Changed up my handle over here to be a bit more anon. Might just start posting more art and fanfic — because no one knows I wrote a multi-chapter fanfic wayyyyyy back in 2022!

Introduce yourself as what almost killed you? Hi, I’m a massive drive shaft dumped in the middle of the interstate.
