== Love Notes ==

Hey lovelies! It's finally Friday tomorrow! I hope you all are finally going to get some rest and relaxation this weekend. We could all use some! I'm gonna go into a bit of a heavier topic tonight, so if you don't have the spoons please don't worry about reading it right now (or ever). I've noticed a big rift going on in the fandom. Whether its on twitter, or tumblr, there's definitely a lot of contention between various groups of fans. I'm sorry if that's stressing you out-- I know it can be really hard to see that kind of thing, especially when we put the time and effort into putting ourselves out there and trying to find a safe space ship we can belong to. Obviously I can't speak to the entire fandom, but the way I've been trying to process what's going on is I think we're running into some Post Cancellation-Fatigue/Aggression. When we were getting regular content from the show, or we were fighting to get the show back more, even if there were some differences between parts of the fandom, it still felt at least somewhat cohesive with some random outliers. That mutual fight for the show isn't as strong now, and the only content we get is BTS from Samba or some of the other lovely crewmembers, and I think it's starting to weigh pretty heavily on people. Sure, there's always been some contention, but a lot of folks have expressed that it's felt a lot stronger the last few days and I have to agree. Have you ever seen those cat videos where there are three cats -- two are focused on one another, and then another cat sneaks up from behind and scares one of them, and then the startled cat starts fighting the other one that wasn't involved? That's what your behavioural specialists would call "misplaced aggression". Same with if your two cats are fighting, and then you try to interrupt, and they scratch you--it's not caused by you but that aggression gets directed at you. That's kinda how it's feeling right now. There's something bugging all of us on some level (and its not all the same thing) and that's translating into frustration, and being modern times we can express those frustrations online-- and maybe not worded in the best way, and suddenly we've got this huge blow up of contention between groups. Now, I may be misreading it, but I've seen this happen in a few other fandoms post cancellations, and it feels similar.

How do we navigate that kind of change? Well, it's not easy. Fandoms are supposed to be fun. They're supposed to be a relief from stress and help us escape the crazy shit going on in this world.

You're allowed to want to just relax and have fun. You're allowed to love your blorbos, and your pairings, whether they follow canon or not ( just like anything in life, don't force them on others if they don't want them). You're allowed to have fun and learn new things and enjoy all of the wonderful things that happen in the show, as well as how many positive things have happened from it's existence.

That being said, you don't owe anyone your energy and mental health-- so if you're not feeling great about a particular group, or chat, or server, or whatever you're in, remember to be kind to yourself and prioritise your happiness. There's a reason there are block buttons on most social media-- not everyone gets along, and you shouldn't have to sacrifice your peace for the sake of other people's frustrations.

There are going to be groups that feel extremely strong one way or the other, and they're going to want you to pick a side. If you find that you identify more with one side, and you feel comfortable and accepted with them, then by all means, find your new safe space ship! If you don't want to pick a side, if you just want to love your blorbos and listen to all the different fun meta going on-- that's okay too! Look for people who share that same ideal-- and aren't as worried about one way or the other.

Hell, if you're enjoying the hell out of all the crazyness going on-- then that's fine too you bringer of chaos, you do you <3. I will repeat this lovelies-- this is supposed to be fun. It's supposed to be an escape, not an added stressor.

Do you need a few days away from the internet? Go nuts! Go outside, lay in the grass, drink your favorite drink and eat your favorite snack. The internet will be here when you get back. This show that brought us all together is about love, kindness, acceptance, learning, growing, making mistakes, forgiveness, support from our friends and family, redemption, and breaking the paradigms that society wants so badly to hold us down with. Those are the things we need to remember and cherish. This show taught us that there are very few situations that are irredeemable with effort, if people are willing to try. It taught us that where we are now doesn't have to be where are in a day, or a month, or a year, or 10 years and nothing is set in stone. We can change our own circumstances if we need to. It's perfectly reasonable to be upset that our safe space ship is having some troubles right now, and I feel it just like everyone else, so I get it. But-- just like the show tells us, nothing stays the same forever, and things can get better. Things can mend. Fandoms can mend, friendships can mend, relationships can mend. Or they can be severed and allow for those involved to move on. Whatever YOU need to do for your peace is okay and valid (we just ask that its not purposefully causing harm to others). You're allowed to prioritise yourself and your happiness.

If you need to talk, or vent, reach out to like-minded crewmates (you're welcome to message me but I may be slow due to work stuff, but I'm happy to listen and talk when I can!)

No matter where you are, no matter how you're feeling, you are loved.

You are doing your best, and you will get through these harder times. Remember to be kind if you can, and give yourself grace too.

Sleep well lovelies, I hope tomorrow is easier for you <3

== Daily Darby / Tonight's Taika ==

Tonight's theme is "silly", because we all need a little sillyness in our lives.

'you were kind of like the break in my day.' - #zhengyisao

this was drawn as part of #bonnetbouquet drawing prompt. the three elements i was given were yellow, zheng (portrayed by the incredible, @thekingprincess) and peonies. it's not often that i draw in this style but i really felt like going back to my fine art roots for this piece. and honestly? i kinda love it. it might be my favourite artwork to date.

you're probably wondering what the big announcement is going to be? well, here it is! since so many of you voted in this poll, for me to draw the "a curse is a curse" scene from 02X05 of ofmd, i thought...why not draw the whole episode?! so, that's what i'm going to be doing. page by page, scene by scene- i'm (unofficially) recreating 'the curse of the seafaring life' in graphic novel style. this is just a fun little, fan project i've been thinking about doing for a while. there'll be no set timeframe for page updates, as it'll be drawn around my irl schedule but i'm looking forward to seeing what i create! i'll make sure to add a hyperlink to each post, so you never miss an instalment!

if you'd like to support my endeavours, feel free to contribute to my kofi page.

ttfn,

some of you may have seen this posted to Instagram by the wonderful team, @saveofmd_crew ! #whywatchofmd

for me personally, i would recommend the show to anyone who is holding onto the hope that things will get better. at the fundamental core of #ourflagmeansdeath is a message of love, healing, and found family. with so many arcs to choose from, there's no doubt that you'll find a character whose story you relate to. representation matters on screen, and #ofmd has that in abundance. it is so refreshing to see an accurate and non-linear path to self-acceptance and personal growth, playout so realistically throughout the two seasons.

as always, if you like my work, please consider buying me a ko-fi (link in bio). i fully appreciate that we're in the midst of an economic crisis, so there is no pressure. 💛

for #ofmd #mermay day 10, i don't think anyone is really surprised by who i chose to draw for the 'red flag' prompt. we love to hate him and hate to love him.

on difficult days, i like to express myself through my art. today was a blue day. i like to think that, for izzy, that's a two cigarette day. i decided to combine the two and create some art for day 12 of #ofmd #mermay. the prompt was moonglow, which felt very apt.

"i loved in shades of wrong." - taylor swift, red( taylor's version)

oooooooooh, booooooy. i loved, loved getting to use this monochrome palette for the one, the beloved...izzy hands!

love this character or hate him, there's no denying- man's got style (and rizz? is that what the kids are saying nowadays?)
