Lion statute guarding the Thames
In London & doing the touristy thing on a double-decker bus tour. As we crossed the Thames, the audio tour started playing The Chain. So, obviously, I cheered & sang along.
Proof that whenever you go, you are never far from #OurFlagMeansDeath 🏴☠️🫡❤️
Listen to the wind blow …
Anyone in the #OFMD crew who is in the Greater Boston (or can get to MA) want free tickets to see Rhys’s show at the Wilbur on this Sunday night? Lots of the MA/New England crew will be there!
I am sad to have to miss it but would love to see the tickets go to a fellow crew member 🏴☠️🫡❤️
If you come to MA, I volunteer to help hide secret goats. Or any other secret animals (but sorry, no secret reptiles - I’m a big old scaredy cat when it comes to reptiles 😬😳🤣)
A still shot from a gif of Izzy from Our Flag Means Death clapping his hands
I told a colleague that I use excessive amounts of exclamation points to pretend that everything is fine! She responded that she will continue using gifs & sent this one of Izzy as an example.
My 1st thought was “have I been talking about #OFMD at work again?”
Phew, it was just a coincidence 🤣🏴☠️❤️🫡
Hey OFMD crew, we can make a tangible difference today by helping out Pirate Nana.
This is a gfm Bix set up for them. I just confirmed with them it's still connected to their bank, so we can relieve a bit of pressure if you're able to help

When my loot comes in, I’ll reach out & see what piece of pirate joy I can send your way!
Absolutely! I would be delighted to send you some pirate joy. I’m sorry for all that you are going through 🫂
#OFMD crew: who needs some pirate joy in their life right now? I bought extra goodies from the buy it now section & I’m happy to share my loot & send some to any pirate who got outbid at the last minute or didn’t participate in this amazing #fandommarket
It’s about belonging to something … 🏴☠️❤️🫡
#OFMD crew who may not have the budget to bid in the #FandomMarket: See an item w/ no bid or Buy It Now that calls to you?
Reply or DM me. I still have room in my budget & I’ll buy/bid on it & send it you wherever you are!
Everyone needs a little OFMD joy now 🏴☠️❤️🫡

A close up of Stede Bonnet at the end of S1 episode 1 looking out from the bow of the ship & saying “my family’s here now, at sea” while looking resplendent in his teal suit and frilly lace cravat
I’ve got extra tickets to the Rhys show in Boston on April 19th. Who wants to go & meet up with a lot of other OFMD crew members? You need this joy in your life now - tickets are free to a good home ❤️🏴☠️🫡
I have tickets for tomorrow’s show that’s been postponed due to the impending snow & I can’t go to the rescheduled date 😭
A meme showing two photographs on top of each other. The bottom shows the cast of Our Flag Means Death on the deck of the Revenge with the words “Our Flag Means Death” in the hot pink gothic text from the show’s promotional materials. The top is Bob Belcher from Bob’s Burgers looking reverential with the text “It’s hard to describe. I mean, I don’t want to oversell it, but it changes you forever” across the bottom of the photo.
My life is better because of #OurFlagMeansDeath
This crew gets better & better because of each of you
I know we’re not through. I can feel it in my soul. A love like ours can’t disappear in an instant. We’re joined to one another, intertwined. We wrote our names on each other in permanent ink 🏴☠️🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🫡
A collage of two images where the top one shows the Rose family from Schitts Creek in front of the Rosebud motels and the bottom one shows the cast of Our Flag Means Death sitting on the deck of the Revenge
Remember @netflix.com when you added Schitts Creek & its devoted fans watched it over & over again & then more people found it & the viewership kept growing?
Want to do it again & #SaveOFMD for S3 & beyond?
Save this funny, whimsical, endearing, romantic show & gain a passionate & loyal fanbase 🏴☠️❤️
A collage of two pictures side by side, where the left picture is Stede Bonnet from OFMD Season 1 in his lovely teal suit and the picture on the right is David Rose from Schitt’s Creek in a black sweater with the word “Icon” in large white block lettering across the chest
Dear @netflix.com, it was great when you picked up Schitt’s Creek & introduced a larger audience to this fashion icon!
How about doubling down to #saveOFMD & sharing another fashion icon with the world?
Even better, renew #OurFlagMeansDeath & #AdoptOurCrew so we can have S3 & beyond! 🏴☠️❤️🫡
A collage where the top photo is the cast of Arrested Development seated on a couch in the Bluth apartment, and the bottom photo is the cast of Our Flag Means Death on the deck of the Revenge
Dear @netflix.com, remember the last time you rescued an eccentric family with a devoted fanbase?
Why not do it again? #SaveOFMD & the found family in the crew of the Revenge!
#AdoptOurCrew & you’ll also get a passionate, dedicated fanbase ready to support the new home of #OurFlagMeansDeath 🏴☠️❤️🫡
A bottle of red wine and white wine from Chateau Bonnet. No known relation to Stede Bonnet.
Did I pick this wine specifically because it reminded me of #OurFlagMeansDeath & Stede Bonnet? Absolutely, yes!
Was I surprised to find out that I actually like it? Again, yes!
Did I bring these to Thanksgiving dinner so I could force people to ask me about #OFMD? 1000% yes!
#CrewForLife 🏴☠️🫡❤️
A picture of people holding signs out over pass that read “real Patriots defend democracy”
Our first #VisibilityBrigade standout over the oncoming traffic to the New England Patriots home game with an important message “real patriots defend democracy”
Thanks @visibilitybrigade.bsky.social for inspiring us!
All of the organizers who put this together are amazing. Thank you so much for your hard work & dedication. You give me hope & joy in a world that is often lacking in both ❤️🏴☠️
Dear streaming services, what if I told you that it’s not just one man for sale, but a whole cast & crew supported by a large, fiery, loyal fanbase just waiting to shower whoever saves Our Flag Means Death with love, affection & probably a lot of disposable income ❤️🏴☠️🫡

Stede Bonnet in Season 1 of Our Flag Means Death wearing his glorious robe and realizing that “oh god. I’ve made a mistake”
When you’re at Fenway Park watching the Red Sox play the Pirates & you realize you missed out on the obvious opportunity to wear some #OurFlagMeansDeath apparel. *And* then they play “The Chain” in between innings 🤦♀️
I may have kept a poker face but my answer totally give me away & my student said they were delighted that I had differentiated between canon/non-canon compliant works, AUs, etc. I can’t wait until I find out that this student is part of the crew 😆
Frenchie telling the English that the journal Lucius has been keeping for Stede is just “a bit of fan fiction” in Season 1, Episode 8 of Our Flag Means Death
Started teaching copyright law to my intro IP course last night
This morning a student has a question & asks “do you know what fan fiction is?”
Had to keep a poker face so as to not immediately tell them about *all* of the OFMD stories I have read. Or how many open AO3 tabs I have on my phone 😆🏴☠️❤️🫡
It’s great that you’ve documented all this. If you think of any other admissions against interest by them, send the quotes by email to yourself for a date-stamped reminder. I hope they do the right thing, but my late mother raised me to be paranoid & neurotic so I’m programmed to catastrophize 🤷♀️
I hope insurance handle this for you. But as your fandom lawyer friend, wanted to say if she tries to change her story, that last part abt how she drives irresponsibly b/c of traffic conditions is an admission against interest & admissible in court to prove the truth (that she did something wrong) ❤️
Sunset over the beach in Nairn, Scotland
I am sorry you have to go through this - I had to do the same thing in 2024 & it’s not easy at all
Here’s a beautiful sunset that I captured in Nairn, Scotland - I actually showed this pic to Kristian at GCCC last year because he said he had family there!
Sending you virtual hugs ❤️
Take care of yourself during this difficult time - we will be thinking of you & sending you virtual hugs 🫂
📌
So sorry for your loss ❤️
My bedroom walls are adorned with glorious #OFMD art from supremely talented artists. And I still have more to frame & hang!
