first day as a freelance knight ed goes to the nearest horse market because having a horse is sort of expected. he has never ridden before but figures that he's probably good at it. also, he can talk to animals, which might be a help. unfortunately his new horse is a stubborn, rotten bastard

four simplistic drawings of a fluffy white dog rolling around in red, yellow, and orange leaves while exclaiming “leaf, leaf”

it’s that time of year again 🍂🍃

Five coloured sketches of the progression of Stede's outfits through the series. First sketch: Stede walking around with the potted fern and a quill pen, wearing a light teal vest and breeches over a white shirt and stockings. Second sketch: Stede kneeling in shock in front of the weapon that Chauncy used, his clothes from the privateer academy rumpled and dirty. Third sketch: Stede in his celebrity pirate era, with a dark teal shirt that shows off his chest, brown leather pants and boots and a sword belt. He's winking off to his right, holding onto a rope with his left hand and his right is resting on the hilt of his sword. Fourth sketch: Stede is back in his soft fabrics, in blue cotton pants, leather boots and a linen shirt that's wide open and sliding off his shoulders, showing bites and kisses left by Ed. In his hands he's holding onto the pink robe with a soft smile on his face. Fifth sketch: Stede finds a middle ground in his wardrobe, mixing the softness of fine fabrics with the practicality of leather. He kept the loose shirt wide open over his chest, with shiny pearl and gold necklaces framing his neckline. He's kneeling with one leg on a stool, leather pants soft and stretching in his pose, and buttery gold leather boots adding a pop of colour to his outfit. His upper body is draped over the counter as he smiles coily at his companion (who's not in frame but is definitely Ed)

Multi-panel Ant-Man meme. Ant Man says: "So OFMD got cancelled?" Luis says, "Yeah, but we weren't ready to let it go. So we started harassing Max in their social media posts and called them on the phone. Casey Bloys said the numbers weren't there even though they totally were. Then he called on Gay Twitter to support The Gilded Age and Gay Twitter was like hell nah. We accused Zaslav of insider trading."

Luis continues: "We raised $20k to put a billboard in Times Square. And to fly a plane over Max's headquarters. OFMD got nominated for a GLAAD award and Max said jack shit about it. All this time we're getting the petition up to like 85k signatures. Dad came on Instagram and pitched the show to other streamers. So since then we've been contacting Netflix, Amazon, and Apple TV."

Luis continues: "Astroglide joined the crew and we did a watch-along with them and #LubeAsACrew was trending. We did that twice. Then Max said they were worried about violence in season 2, Dad called bullshit. We started getting a lot of major press coverage for our campaign. Dad posts a picture of a street in NYC and we all freak out. Some drama goes down with Renew As a Crew, idk."

Luis continues: "We do a bunch of watchalongs of related shows and movies. Season 2 airs in the UK and we get Wee John Wondays again. Rhys joins Cameo and makes heartwarming videos that make us cry. Dad's been really quiet so we hope he's in negotiations. And that's been the first 30 days in the gravy basket." Ant-Man stares at Luis.

I made this one early in the renewal campaign days 😆

why you should get an AO3 account

the most important thing about ofmd is that it's very realistic with all its ups and downs, light and dark, and light again

Happy #OFMDAUgust day 1! All three prompts, hooray!

Before you spend money on that auction, please know that those are only props and costumes. They hold no magic.

The coolest things are the things you made around the show.

I’m ambivalent about auctions around Our Flag that don’t benefit an independent artist or larger cause.

I Did Think, Let's Go About This Slowly I did think, let's go about this slowly. This is important. This should take some really deep thought. We should take small thoughtful steps. But, bless us, we didn't. - Mary Oliver

Them: are you still thinking about pirates?
Me:

so wild there are these threads of radiant beauty just coursing through all things, and not only do we get to witness this glow, we get to pluck the strings ourselves and travel to the future or past through art and creation. all you have to do is reach out and strum to connect with the infinite

the time was august 2023, our flag means death had wrapped filming in december and the fans had gone through clowning endless times, from valentine's day to easter to (slightly side eyeing) start of pride month and then it finally started

your life is not an optimization problem - as in you'll never achieve the perfect daily routine, sleep schedule, coping mechanisms, mannerisms, fashion sense etc. even after years and years of healing and improvement and self-discovery. you will never be so good at life that you manage to utilize every waking moment. its great to be productive and all but sometimes you'll suck ass. sometimes you'll take eight hours to be done with a twenty minute job. you'll prioritize the wrong thing. you'll sleep for 12 hrs just to avoid being awake. you'll relapse. and you'll relapse again. you'll forget to turn in the assignment. you'll order too little food. life is far too large and complex for you to even experience it completely, much less try to make sense of and control it. you can't. please give up on that and be at peace with the hours you lose. they are not separate from your life.
