Can we *not* have the “is the show queer enough” conversation. Right now we’re fighting back against a homophobic cultural swing and any media that’s showing queer joy and queer love is MAGIC and NEEDED. I love OFMD. I love Heated Rivalry. Both are queer and they’re different and that’s BEAUTIFUL

Hi all! I’ve seen a few people express nervousness about their artistic skill levels so I wanted to reiterate that there’s no requirement for anything to be elaborate, just made with love 💝 #GiftOFMD #ofmd #PoisonIntoPositivity

Okay legit question if I put together some sort of smut writing workshop would folks be interested?? (Please note it would be general smut writing, not focused on specific characters) (I have also never run a workshop like this and cannot guarantee it would be good!! But it would be fun to try!)

So HBO Max is coming to Germany tomorrow Time to harass them about canceling #OFMD in a new language 🤣 /jk

Seasons of Drabbles - signups open! - AO3: archiveofourown.org/collections/... - DW: seasonsofdrabbles.dreamwidth.org

Watching Heated Rivalry blow up and being in the fandom is bittersweet because it’s so fun but I’m also angry we never got that with OFMD. But I think that’s what makes this crew special is that WE did the marketing. WE made the merch. I wish we could have had more, but I love us what we’ve built ❤️

Next week it's #ofmdroachweek! Prepare your fics/fanart/podfic/meta/fic recs :D The collection is open! archiveofourown.org/collections/...

i need more people yelling about this. i'd be happy with an art book with ra's sketches and notes but stede's moodboard for his captain's quarters?? WITH NOTES FROM STEDE?? i would spend a truly disgusting amount of money. like an amount i'd almost be embarrassed to admit to

im just. really amazed that people who last worked on ofmd 3+ years ago are still so excited to talk about it. that someone took the time to organize it all so they could talk about their work. that there's still so much love for this show. how often does that happen?

can i just say it really means a lot to me that the ofmd cast/crew still speak about s3 like it’s going to happen one day? like it’s hardly ever “oh yeah this is what would’ve happened,” it’s “this is what we plan to do.” even if it all seems pointless, i need that little bit of hope sometimes. ❤️‍🩹

All of us right now and for the last 2 years #OFMD #BOF2

i will ALWAYS be so pissed because not only they cut the budget almost in half and forced them to rush through the season but they ALSO had to get their grubby hands all over and interfere in creative decisions AND refused to promote it... season 2 of our flag means death you deserved so much better

If you’re feeling hopeless right now, the answer is to get involved in direct action. It’s hard to think things can get better if you’re primarily waiting for *other* people to take action. But if you’re seeing the benefits of everything you’re doing? There’s hope everywhere.

I think one of the best things about OFMD fandom is the appreciation of not only the main cast/creator, but the entire cast and crew. Someone who was on screen for maybe 60sec. Set and props. Costumes. Make up. Writers. Directors. Jobs I didn’t even know existed! Celebrating everyone! Bravo! 👏🏻 #BOF2

if you're an artist and you're seeing this, don't give up on your art. you create worlds and characters that didn't exist until you picked up that pencil and brought it to life. you create magic. ppl created programs to poorly emulate what you can do. don't ever forget that 🩷

:( david misses everyone, he misses the cast, he misses the times they had together on the show, and he suspects a lot of the others feel that way too. so he likes doing these fan events bc it's nice to know the show/fandom is still alive in this way 💜 #bof2

i’m pretty sure if david let us, we could crowdfund ofmd s3 ourselves. i’m not even being funny, i’d fuckin do it. he says the word, there’s a kickstarter by the end of the day

People are still discovering and falling in love with OFMD two years after it was canceled 🥹

Make sure to add that you'll cancel nitro and leave the platform if they go AI!

if you’re wondering why i make a big deal out of the fact that i used to say “men are trash” but stopped — the posts in the screenshot below are why if you believe the world would be better if all men dropped dead tomorrow, i need you to block me immediately. i’m not arguing with you. get out.

Discord wants to know how you feel about AI. Go tell them: discord.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Two human years. OFMD brought together an immensely talented cast and crew to imagine a queerer, kinder world. Through our stories and art, we’ve kept that world alive. Through fundraising and mutual aid, we bring that kindness off the screen and into our community.

i made an updated version of this, it felt like the right time to share it 🏴‍☠️❤️ #ofmdbts #longliveofmd

I'm looking for books with transmasculine protagonists that might help me understand myself. I recently read Rules for Ghosting and found it relatable on so many levels. What's your top rec? I especially like romance, mystery, and sff. No sad endings please! 🌈📚💙 Special love to those who boost!

Two years in the gravy basket. Two years of unwavering love. Two years with the best Crew. Love you all and love our show forever 🏴‍☠️💜 #Crewforlife #ofmd

Still here two years later ❤️‍🩹 #LongLiveOFMD

A two full years after cancellation and they’re still writing about it AND WE ARE STILL HERE!!!! @hbomax.bsky.social and @netflix.com you can still right this terrible wrong.

research shows that fandoms can actually survive for years in the gravy basket and emerge stronger than ever when their show is eventually resurrected for a 3rd season. don’t ask me for citations just trust me

no amount of corporate greed can stop you from creating new lives for them over and over and over again, whether it’s on a page or on a canvas or in your head. your love is powerful and your passion doesn’t need to be commodified or backed by a streaming platform to be valuable and impactful

BRING THEM BACK

We couldn't agree more! #OFMD #LongLiveOFMD 🔗 collider.com/our-flag-mea...

two years ago some loser execs at wbd/hbo max canceled one of the most original, wholesome, hilarious and romantic series in tv history ahead of its final season. the fans aren’t going anywhere, but maybe someone should come to their senses and help finish the story. #LongLiveOFMD #OurFlagMeansDeath

What a beautiful day to love and appreciate hit television show Our Flag Means Death! 🏳️‍🌈🏴‍☠️

i don’t think OFMD ever would’ve hit the same height as heated rivalry simply bc ed and stede aren’t Young and Sculpted but man, do i ever wish hbo max at least TRIED to promote it 😞 OFMD deserves its fucking flowers, god damn it.
