I spoke up against Hungary's anti-lgbt laws a few months ago in the media.
People threatened to spit on me at my next book signing.
Our Flag Means Death has been a safe space for me, where I feel truly free. Understood. Healed. I'll keep fighting for this show.
Sign the petition here to save OFMD.

Ugh, WB are shameless cunts. They cancelled Our Flag Means Death and now are using it to promote their streaming service.
I mean, 100% it's an adorable clip. That little smize Blackbeard gives Stede makes you want to giggle.
But, Zaslav, you cancelled the show, fucker. Because "it didn't have the numbers." And now you're like "Hey, you know a show everyone loves? This one!"

Hey I know people are pissed, we should be! Rhys is our captain and an incredible actor that put 110% into every part of this performance as Stede.
But it's important to remember that we are the audience that other streaming services like Netflix Prime and appleTV are considering. I saw this post last week after the Vulture article and it has some good points.

So remember poison into positivity! Let's get our show back!

Every so often, I take a step back, and give myself space to be absolutely furious about the fact we are having to fight for this.
There is nothing more that we, the cast, the crew, the show itself, could have done in order to get us the third series David always had planned. The numbers were fantastic. It received acclaim from the audience and from critics. The engagement was easily beating out shows that had much, much higher budgets. Renewal should have been a shoe-in.
The show did everything right - in the face of budget cuts and studio interference and strikes and half-hearted marketing efforts, it fought through to be one of the top shows.
And yet, here we are, forced to fight tooth and nail in order to get this story the ending it, and we, deserve.
We should be celebrating and getting excited about a third season, looking forward to the tidbits and hints as the cast and crew go to shoot later this year, but instead, we're fighting for the show's survival.
It's not just queer shows: it's BIPoC-centric shows, it's shows that feature good disabled characters, it's all these shows that make marginalised people feel seen and represented in ways that the wider media market hasn't allowed us to be.
One day, we won't have to fight for them.
One day, we will just be able to enjoy these stories and rest easier knowing that they won't be arbitrarily cut short. One day their quality and their numbers will be enough to keep them going, just like their (often far more mediocre, less successful) white, cisallohet, abled counterparts.
But we aren't there, yet.
And we're allowed to be angry about that.

01/22/2024 Daily Recap
Hey all! It's been a long day huh? I wanna apologize ahead of time, whatever sickness my kiddo had last week finally got me so I'm not feeling terribly well. I'm gonna do my best to articulate todays events for ya!
===Renew As A Crew====
So the very first thing I want to touch on today is updates from @renewasacrew. As you may have heard, they were going to be changing leadership as the shift in priorities changed from renewing to saving OFMD. That being said, the leadership change happened over this weekend with some hiccups (I don't know what the hiccups were entirely and I'm not going to speculate, if you wanna delve down that twitter hole you can, but having been in it for today I'd recommend against it for your mental health, and we don't want to be drawing a bunch of media attention to it) there's a lot of confusing information, and as we know things can get conflated fast if we don't have all the pieces to the puzzle-- let's not speculate and wait for the to come out with more info.
So what I'm focusing on today is @renewasacrew's message to please give them some time and practice some patience while they get back up and running. This also includes anyone you happen to know on twitter working with them, for example: @TheCozyPirate. Let's give them some grace, they've been steering us well so far.
Tumblr media
The good news is, several folks, on tumblr: @iamadequate1, @quirkysubject, @asgardian--angels, On twitter: @havethisonelife @yougotoofast @Lcmwriter100, we have all we need to keep going for a few days while things get ironed out. (If I forgot someone please let me know, sorry I am half awake tonight)-- see the HOW CAN YOU HELP section below.
One thing I will mention-- we are moving so very fast right now. It's only been 13 days since the announcement that OFMD wasn't renewed, and we've accomplished SO MUCH. So when there's a lull, it's going to feel like things are standing still and maybe something is going wrong. Don't fall into despair, that's just how things go with negotiations. Take a break, take a breath, and just keep on Polite Menacing until we hear more from the leadership team.
===How can you help?===
**Go to visit the DAILY RENEWAL TASK LIST there's lots of ideas and ways you can help! Have more? Shoot me a dm! I'm happy to add stuff!**
*Note: To our international fans, I promise I'm working on a write up for you as well I've just been sick today and have been able to finish!*
Something new today-- a lot of you have expressed your desire to help in the @renewasacrew efforts. Well if you did-- and still want to, now you can volunteer! Many thanks to @redshiftsinger for getting this up so quick!
Please visit their survey: Volunteer Intake form and fill out how you may be able to help!
=== Cast and Crew Sightings ===
As if on cue, Chaos dad reached out to everyone on twitter today to express some encouragement!
Tumblr media
He also saw we were at 77K and posted his astonishment!
Tumblr media
Some folks have been a bit weary about his vagueness today, but as we know, Daddy Jenkins is the king of vague-- and he has to be! If there are contracts in the works, he can't be hinting at things. Don't lose hope!
===Samson Kayo ===
Our beloved Oluwande updated his IG with some pictures and a message. If you have IG I'm sure he'd appreciate some love!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Next up was our favorite Captain, Rhys Darby, promoting a fellow comic @jamesroguecomedy over on IG!
Tumblr media
And our pirate queen Ruibo Qian was making posts about saving ofmd and fanart about Zheng! Featuring folks you probably know around tumblr: @mistysblueboxstuff and @tsutsu_ya over on twitter

Our Flag Means Death's marketing was concerned about the shock of violence in the show
===============================================
Alright lovelies. Here we are again, I told you it'd be quick. Today was very very very busy. Take a break and get some sleep ya? Lean on your crew, we are here to support each other. I'll end with a quote from Tolkien (it being all of us in your crew):
"May it be a light to you in dark places, when all other lights go out."
Tonight picture features Taika and his "I love you eyes" at Rhys. Thats me, I'm Taika, I love you all.

Sharing my new favorite thing: this AU comic by alandslideofopossums on Twitter where Izzy owns a pet shop. Ed is a cat; Stede is a goldfish. And they are in 💕love💕.
