please, for fucks sake, do not try and Solve cases of ramcoa survivors when they are venting about their trauma. this isn't a true crime show, you are not a detective, and the legal system (at least in the USA) is not as fair and good as you think it is. if a survivor has not gone to the police, there is a fucking REASON. and you trying to get the police involved, will inevitably get that survivor involved as well! quite trying to be a white knight for strangers on the internet. cope in a different way.

Also. 'It's only suicide I'd we die!' in the same damn episode as the death of a character who did very much try to kill himself pisses me off. Just a bit.

Every day I wake up and try to move on from this show, but I end up spending two minutes screaming into my closet about the fact that my boy Lucius kept getting told to shut up about his trauma in this season and that his "happy ending" was only given to him once he shut up and "moved on" and stopped being angry and that this was somehow portrayed as the healthiest reaction to trauma on the show.

But hey, if Frenchie's box and Izzy's shark and Archie's "they always get away with it" worked for them, why wouldn't it work for Lucius?

well, now seems like a perfect time to re-engage with the bellhands side of the fandom because we never did care about canon over there anyway

#last post for the evening i swear #i never stopped thinking about sam but i haven't talked as much or fleshed out ideas in a while and. i miss him #lets all go have fun #nyxtalks #ofmd #ofmd s2 spoilers #bellhands #i present you this instead of one of several vent posts that got very concerning very fast and pushed past the limits for this account #think about sam instead :) #i want to properly flesh out my sams izzy idea i think #and talk about my personal 'they all went to pirate school fogether' framework #i need to find joy in this media again i need to

my personal hot take bout izzy conversations is that you can critique his writing and his actions and i’m following but as soon as the word abuser gets thrown into the mix i’m not listening anymore

from my pov it really just sounds like ppl are mad that he threatens the sanctity of their ship which is a dumb reason to dislike a character IN MY PERSONAL OPINION and i’m not even saying that’s the reason why ppl have this opinion just that from my outside perspective it looks like ppl are reaching bc they feel like izzy threatens gb

which is a ridiculous notion considering gb is canon and was never not going to be canon and shipping izzy with either/both of them threatens nothing in canon and it’s literally just normal fandom behavior aka playing in the fanon sandbox.

it’s all so childish. the whole reason the canyon exists is childish (not the ppl who made it that’s really just curating a space online which that’s fine) like didn’t know it was ok to bully ppl who like a fictional character—who, side note, is way less problematic than most controversial characters??— you don’t like simply bc you don’t like him.

if you don’t like izzy hands. cool, i would’ve agreed with you five months ago. you’re free to enjoy gb with the majority of the fandom. shit talking a subgroup of the fandom is like the equivalent of high school mean girl behavior.

and the fact that izzy is the guy they picked to hate is so weird to me. i remember watching s1 and being like oh yah this guy is gonna be popular on the socials. he’s like the blueprint for the pathetic cringe fail moody loser older guy that fandoms eat up like hot cakes. he hasn’t even done anything egregiously wrong; fantasy violence, off screen mentions of killing peoples, saying mean things to the crew bc he was an antagonist. maybe if you were edward teach you could be personally upset that your closest… whatever they are… turned you into the british. when i tell you there are genshin impact villains more diabolical. least when ppl were arguing over hisoka from hxh i understood there were levels of nuance at play. but with izzy it makes me feel insane, like is this ppl’s first day in a fandom?

which tired argument bc liking villains doesn’t mean you condone their actions, but really what has izzy done that’s so unmoral that liking him makes you a bad person… in the eyes of the internet? it can’t be the violence bc that’s a dime a dozen literally it’s implied buttons has killed ppl with his silly teeth and no one hates him. (this is all a rhetorical question) it’s embarrassing to watch ppl make up things about him in order to justify why they hate him. like i’m telling you it’s ok to find him cringe and not like him. there doesn’t need to be a moralistic reason to dislike a character. they’re not real. well i mean in this case i guess he was real but like izzy hands from ofmd isn’t the real man who died hundreds of yrs ago.

which by the way criticism towards izzy’s actions on the show is perfectly fine it’s judging real ppl for liking him that’s the issue.

but as i’ve learned it’s too much to expect media literacy from the internet.

people are already making gifsets of ed and stede walking into their home by the sea and cutting the gifs before it can pan down to izzy's grave.. and something about that just makes me really fucking sad. izzy is so integral to this story and to that scene in partciular. and i feel like there is a huge chunk of this fandom literally grieving right now and i just?? i dunno, i wanna be happy for ed and stede. i really do. but the way their "happily ever after" is tied with izzy's death/burial makes me so upset. also i wish they had at least given him a burial at sea instead of burying him outside like their dog?

#sorry probably my last vent for a while #i hope i feel differently tomorrow or that i can at least come to terms with the ending.. i am grieving #ofmd #our flag means death #ofmd s2 #ofmd spoilers #izzy

No cause I need to talk about it (OFMD spoilers)

I just thought about like- I was so excited to see Izzy healing and being embraced by the crew cause I thought that was for sure what they were going towards. And I’m just like.. as someone who’s grown up in an awful situation I am so excited for the day I can be around other queer people and be safe.

And I’m thinking about how Izzy got there, he got to the safe space finally after so much trauma, and it didn’t matter. Like I thought with the suicidal ideations earlier they were gonna give Izzy something to live for like Ed got but no. He just gets to die like he wanted, the suicidal ideation gets rewarded. I did not need to see that kind of shit right now but I never imagined the last episode would go this way. Especially after calypso’s birthday I thought we were going to see Izzy open up more like that and I am so disappointed. This season was so rushed and this episode really shows it in a way that hurts the show.

I feel like Izzy dying that way just goes against what the whole show seems to be about because in my mind there’s a big theme of love saving people or pulling people back from the darkness but Izzy just doesn’t get to have that.

Something I struggle with is when you’ve been traumatized and hurt so much you start to believe you aren’t allowed to have good things, that something will always stop it. So seeing the most traumatized character get very suddenly cut down on the verge of the happiest time he would’ve ever had, really fucked with me.

It would’ve meant a lot to see that unicorn get a happy story. To see that just because things have been awful doesn’t mean they can’t get good. This episode just left me depressed man.

I'm going to disable comments for this one.

Please don't hate on me for this.

I have a LOT of emotions to release. And it's a personal painful thing. I am NOT saying you can't like certain choices made in OFMD nor that you can't like Ed Teach.

These are just feelings that have been eating me up inside.

I normally wouldn't do this but I have a major concern about the implications of the Izzy and Blackbeard relationship in s2.

It hurts to see Izzy living with and being friendly to his abuser.

Ed manipulated him, mutilated him, and constantly mentally tormented him for months.

And ALSO shot him, leading to an amputation and Izzy being permanently disabled.

It feels as though the show is saying what Izzy went through should be forgotten and that Izzy HAS to play nice to Ed now to earn his happiness.

As someone who has family members who survived domestic violence, it makes me feel horrible.

Sure, Izzy got an apology, but how can that even come close to easing my fears? Izzy was TORTURED REPEATEDLY, and we're supposed to forget that and be happy that Ed and Izzy are still friends?

Not only that, but Izzy is emotionally supporting Ed and trying to mediate his relationship troubles?

Since the Finale has yet to air, I understand that there's a chance things could improve.

But I've had a gross aftertaste about this all season and CANNOT find a way to give a damn about BB anymore.

And yet the show desperately wants me to.

what about Izzy being loved and supported and treated like an actual human being. what then

#our flag means death #ofmd #izzy hands #shitpost #ignore the rest of the tags it's just me venting lol #please please please #why does everything about izzy have to involve people humiliating and insulting and brutalizing him as part of some psychosexual mind game #like i get it given that he's constantly being humiliated in the show but also i hate it #no shade to anyone who's into that stuff but every time i see it i literally start to feel sick and it's impossible to avoid #i should probably like. step away from the ofmd fandom if it's getting to me this much huh #if i stop posting here you'll know why lol
