I realize this may be a controversial statement when discussing a show featuring infamous cutie T/aika W/aititi, but this is actually the cutest anyone has ever been.

Ed surviving being hit in the head with a cannonball without even a black eye is precedent for Jack still being alive in this essay I will
The first time Jim and Olu have sex Jim tries to go all Daddy Dom on him immediately. They're pulling out kinks he's never even considered w/in the first 5 minutes. He's trying so hard to play along but then they pull a knife and he shrieks and covers his face with his arm.
There's a fault line that cuts through Izzy Canyon, and it's Izzy Enjoyers (like to see the old man suffer) vs. Izzy Enjoyers (don't like to see the old man suffer). This season may test our alliance but I hope we can remember our common ground (wanting to fuck that old man)
At this point, the ball is rolling. We've been doing this for nearly two weeks. Keep being creative, reaching out to Amazon, Apple, and Netflix, using the hashtags, whatever you can think of to keep the momentum going. This campaign belongs to all of us

Olu gently but with thinly veiled exasperation coaxes them back into bed. They feel a little better when he asks to be the little spoon. And when he calls them Papi. Their anxiety slowly dissipates as they lie there, strategizing about how to get Olu to have weirder sex next time
I think I've now seen every part of this fandom referred to as a cult and I think we need to consider the possibility that we are all members of a single cult which has fractured along theological divides
Guys I'm sorry I took my lawn sign down and now I'm worried that a whole bunch of you might have followed me without knowing that IN THIS HOUSE, WE BELIEVE
And they end up having the most beautiful, tender, loving, completely vanilla sex. They're laughing. They're maybe crying a little. It is so joyful and vulnerable and perfect and the second they're done Jim just becomes their most awkward feral cat self.
One second they're kissing Olu and laughing and the next they're lying next to him experiencing the mortifying ordeal of being known. They get all twitchy. They glance frantically around the room. "Oh hey what's that?" they say, pointing across the room, then falling off the bed.
Olu's like... Okay look, can we please... just go back to basics. Lay some groundwork. Just for now! And maybe we can talk about the, um, knife stuff another time. Jim's like, oh, yeah, I mean, okay, sure, I guess?
I strongly support renewal efforts outside the auspices of RaaC, AND the Renew as a Crew name is getting a lot of press. I think throwing out that brand recognition would be a mistake and I hope RaaC will choose to hand off rather than nuke their accounts
Sooo Renew as a Crew is stepping aside without passing along any assets, they say their website will stay up for 6 months but have taken down all but the landing page and this letter, and they're deactivating the volunteer server in 3 days. Very cool guys.
I haven't wanted to give the current discourse air, but I guess I do want to say that I didn't listen to the full podcast but nothing in the article surprised me or changed how I feel about Taika. He's a human being. He's allowed to get divorced lmao.

A psychotic break absolutely does not reflect the inner beliefs of the person having it and as someone who has experienced psychosis it is horrifying to me that people think this.
Stede is weak. Ed is actually hottest when he's around Calico Jack. Giggling, twirling his hair, skipping around. Doing stupid dances. Impulsively demanding erotic violence. Yeah. If Stede's not gonna finish that meal then I will.
Feeling a lot about joyfully seeing that HoHW had updated and then reading that Mottlemoth has been bullied out of this fandom once and for all. They deserved better, and so do the creators who are still here and who very well may not be for long if the culture remains so toxic.
I know most of us have blocked each other at this point but if you're stuck in a certain part of the fandom and are *still* just completely miserable you know you can leave right?
#ofmds2spoilers
actually what I think happened is that it grazed the side of his head like the bullet grazed the side of izzy's head but I want Jack to be alive damnit
I just heard that someone who's had me blocked for several months shared a screenshot of this tweet and brought the very serious charge of "silly" against me. After consulting with my lawyers, I have decided to plead guilty to the charge.
Respectfully wondering if the people below this photo criticizing her bikini choice are not attracted to women? Because while it's not a fashion choice I would make for myself all I can think when I look at this photo is "awooga!"
I'm gonna be honest the fact that Ed called Stede babe, love, AND mate over the course of three lines in Stede's fantasy really successfully lampooned me as a writer
#ofmds2spoilers
I'm gonna take a twitter break. I love that everyone is paying tribute to our show, both through beautiful
#ThankYouOFMD
posts and through harassing the Max account, but it's making me too fucking sad. I'll probably be back in 3 days when I remember that I have no self control 🖤
@froggeebean
1. Most of us are queer; I assume when I see this take that they are calling me (a trans bisexual) and others like me straight women 🙄
2. Straight women! You are welcome here! There is nothing wrong with ppl who are not queer liking queer stories. Thank you for supporting us 🫶

I'm not trying to defend Kanye. Isn't he doing enough harm on his own without amplifying it by spreading harmful misinformation about mentally ill people while condemning his behavior?
I am only here to be psychosexually obsessed with Ed Teach, I dunno what the rest of y'all are doing here but can I interest you in being psychosexually obsessed with Ed Teach as an alternative
Me thinking about myself getting pregnant: *hyperventilating*
Me thinking about pregnancy in the abstract: ew gross why does anyone do this
Me thinking about Ed Teach getting pregnant: 🥵🥵🥵🥵🍆💦💦💦
This is more info than anyone needs but I've been using he/they pronouns online the whole time I've been in this fandom I think? Which has been helpful as I figure out my gender journey (TM) but I'm a they/them irl and I've decided to standardize my pronouns across realities lol
My favorite coworker said to me today, "Sometimes I mess up and call you 'she'. And then sometimes in emails I just don't use any pronouns for you at all cause not everybody knows that CJ has a pronoun situation" and I'm still cracking up about "pronoun situation"
I am wildly in love with Stede Bonnet but I do think a lot of people getting defensive about folks criticizing him are missing the context of the conversation
Imagine you're this fucking hot, pulling absolutely anyone you want, and some irritating little mentally ill pipsqueak imprints on you like a baby duck. You have to turn him down bc he's literally 12 but also now you have to make sure he doesn't die bc no one else is gonna do it.
If you put Viago and Ed in the same room there would not be a conversation about them looking similar. They would look at each other and see entirely different people as would anyone else in the room. It would never come up.
#ofmds2spoilers
look all I'm saying is that in the teaser for next week's episode there's a whole side of the dinner table at Anne and Mary's that's out of frame JACK COULD BE THERE
Ed and Izzy are Jesus and Judas, Stede is Mary Magdalene (whore) (affectionate), the GBs are the Catholic Church, and Izzy Canyon is the Protestant reformation. Who founded Izzy Canyon? You're now Martin Luther.
It's just folks pointing out a double standard where some folks will pick Izzy apart & use his flaws to badmouth people who like him but won't acknowledge that their fave is also a dick (affectionate). Also people are allowed to have different opinions about fictional characters
I know that people are weird about wives sometimes but personally I feel that the song where Rita sings about Taika's big brown eyes should be the anthem of Taikapaths everywhere
I'm glad that Mottlemoth is doing what they have to for their own wellbeing. I don't blame them for a second. I'm really angry for them that they won't be able to finish this work that they poured so much love into, and I'm really sad that we won't be able to read it.
Hello friends, I love all the

clowning but unless I'm not seeing some tweets I don't think that poll guy was trying to be rude to us. We can take some mild teasing, can't we? We ARE adults who wear costumes in public, after all 😂
I'm glad I have a chill bisexual husband who doesn't care that I have 800 photos of another man on my phone instead of some kind of insane heterosexual who might have a problem with that
been seeing a lot of Calico Jack slander the last couple of days and I just wanna remind you all that we wouldn't have "you came back" "never left" without this fucker

"Even if he did have a psychotic break, the fact is the psychotic break will reflect the inner beliefs of that person. It’s like being drunk. Drunk people who are racist are racist when they’re sober too. They just have a stronger filter. Same goes for him. This is who he is."
@chaoticmulaney
I spent my childhood baffled that the adults in Harry Potter thought Lockhart was attractive only to become an adult with a giant crush on Stede Bonnet (I was however in love in Sirius Black so my crush on Ed Teach is less surprising)
@faeeebaeee
This fandom has a serious tall poppy syndrome problem. I'm sorry that it has affected you the way it has. As I'm sure you know, it does not reflect on you at all and is only a negative response to the huge positive impact you have had on this fandom (1/2)
@adoptourcrew
Makes sense to me. This account isn't collecting $, so accountability is different; this eliminates the clout-seeking factor; we should all remember that all advice is just advice. Use it if it's helpful. Think critically about each piece of info, no matter where it comes from.
I told my husband that I'm buying a new tiny pumpkin every time I go to the grocery store and I don't think he understands that I intend to do this through the end of October because he did not say "that's too many pumpkins"

@TheCozyPirate
The stakes are so low if AOC fucks up. They are just aggregating information. What are the stakes? We all reach out to the wrong streamer?
We should all be thinking critically about all info from AOC, RaaC, AND Jac
I don't know what can be done about it but I will say that if you think it's okay to harass creators who make work that you don't personally like, whether or not you feel it's justified, I don't want you in my corner of the internet. Please block me.
I'm not very far into Black Sails but so far my impression is that Jack Rackham shows up appearing to be the slimiest man you've ever seen and then turns out to be the least toxic man on the island and I just think this is a good Jackedhands flavor
@maryswraith
I DIDNT KNOW THEY DIE TOGETHER okay maybe I can watch it after all I really didn't think I could do it from everything I've seen on twitter so far
