Most people know Stede and Ed are both based on real people.
Less people know that Stede Bonnet was hung to death in December 1718 and Edward Teach was killed in battle with sailors November 1718.
And S1 is set in 1717.
This worries me for s2 or future seasons.

Signal swivel gun from the Queen Anne’s Revenge, before 1717
This small bronze gun is attached to a wrought iron yoke and would have been mounted on the cap rail, or the timber at the very top of the hull. Such a small gun would do very minor damage as a weapon and was instead intended to signal or salute other members of the fleet, passing ships, or people on land. It is probably British and manufactured around 1700. The bore is too small to fire the smallest of iron cannon balls and may not have been used to fire projectiles.

On or about this day in history, in the year 1717, the pirate sloop Revenge attacked and robbed the sloop Betty.
Led by Edward Teach and using Stede Bonnet’s resources, the pirates took “Certain Pypes of Medera Wine and other Goods and Merchandise” from the Betty before drilling holes in the hull and sinking her.

This is the Hermitage of Our Lady of Longing (Ermita de Nuestra Señora de la Soledad, in Spanish), a small church built in 1717 in the town of Albuquerque. Nowadays, this Catholic temple is no longer a house of God, for it has been converted into... a bar.

I was thinking about how Luna Lovegood is such a special human being but because she's an introvert, most people don't see it. That doesn't take away from how special she is, in fact maybe she's special precisely because most people don't see it. And maybe you should see yourself that way too ♥
