Meant to x-post this gorgeous #OFMD comic by vlcimor MONTHS ago, and today I realised it just...never left my drafts?? 🙃😭
To make up for it, I'm gonna make a whole vlcimor appreciation thread! 💖
A reminder, because I needed it, that this is the last week to participate in the kudoboard for David Jenkins!
I'm sure y'all have something to thank him for, especially knowing how hard he's fought for us (and the things we'll never know).
Remember that short #ThankYouOFMD messages count! Taika's kudoboard had 324 in total. Rhys' birthday kudoboard had 204. DJenks' now has 148 messages, so we're on the right track!
If you've already participated in the kudoboard for David Jenkins (see previous toot in the thread), remember that there are more! And the rest of them have very few messages. Under 20 messages for our lovely cast and crew members?!
We can do better than that!
Indigo Girls’ “Ghost” is THE break-up-era Ed Teach song and I will not be taking comments at this time
And I feel it like a sickness
How this love is killing me
I'd walk into the fingers of your fire willingly
And dance the edge of sanity
I've never been this close
In love with your ghost
Meanwhile, “Love Will Come To You” is SO Stede-coded, christ
I was born under the sign of cancer (love will come to you)
Like brushing cloth I smooth the wrinkles for an answer (love will come)
And I'm always closing my eyes and wishing I'm fine (I close my eyes and wish you fine)
Even though I know I'm not this time (even though I know your not this time)
I'm once again thinking about Fediverse groups... Why aren't we using them more on #OFMDstodon? 🤔 They seem like a great way to find & reach more fans across instances, considering group posts can be seen by everyone who follows that group, regardless of federation (unlike hashtags).
Since chirp.social has shut down, the @gentlebeard group is sadly defunct – but fear not! You can now share your fanart, fanfic and general gushing about these adorable idiots with @gentlebeard! Follow to get all group posts on your timeline.💖

You may be wondering what the point of a group like this is if you can just follow hashtags & almost every post that ends up in here will be tagged #OurFlagMeansDeath and/or #OFMD.
The difference is that with hashtags, you only see posts from people on servers federated with your own (i.e. at least one person on their server follows someone on yours or vice versa), but group posts can be seen by all members, regardless of federation! 🙌
Gentlebeard Wedding Week will take place in May and everyone is welcome to participate with any kind of fanwork.
The idea is to give Stede and Ed more than the wedding they should have gotten in Season 3! Why restrict them to a single wedding when they can have them all?
Collabs are welcome, use the prompts as needed and remember to follow your instance's rules regarding NSFW content.
I finished the full draft of my OFMD x Spiritfarer crossover fic. I am dyyyyyingg to post it but also I want it to get a thurough beta cause it means a lot to me and i feel like it can be Great.
it's a roach-centric mostly canon compliant fix-it, the main divergence being that Izzy lives
