OFMD mostly, sometimes plants and art. Elder. No minors please.
I couldn’t help myself. If you’re in the US, I wish you the best possible weekend in whatever circumstances you find yourselves. If it gets weird, remember your pirate friends are in your pocket, and love you just how you are.

The gent on the left just arrived from the World Wildlife Fund for symbolically adopting an octopus🐙. Put him next to my other little guy and just laughed at the Gentlebeardness of it all.

Resharing for the morning. 💖
Copper enamel workshop. Loved it. One of the colors was named Bonnet Blue, so of course I had to use it. It’s in the water by the tentacle, layered with purple. Really fun to do.

What fictional creature/villain traumatized you as a child?

What’s the lore behind your choice of a career path?
Began teaching trampoline at a local day camp at 13. Best job ever, ended up running the program eventually. Not many trampoline jobs out there. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Realized I preferred the company of kids and loved teaching. Retired after 40+ years.

Stop, this is a selfie checkpoint. You must repost with a cute selfie to proceed. Yarn ad cowl pattern from Uradale, Shetland, from sheep I have met. 😎

I’m going to piggyback on this recommendation because I was grateful to be reminded of this beautiful , sad but not forever, story. I’ve just reread the first chapter and going to let myself sit with it before going on. I am glad to be with these particular Ed & Stede again.

Someone on a neurodiversity Facebook page challenged people to suggest children’s book characters who can be read as autistic, and I think my life would have been entirely different had I seen the excellent suggestions ages ago.

Reskeet with a time you looked cool. I was just so very happy in this moment, and the company was grand. (💖 @amuseoffyre.bsky.social for letting us play with the mups)

More ice dyeing

Ok, I’m 2 chapters in and this is just delightful. It’s got an extra special meta spin I’ll let you discover for yourself, but I’m grinning away. Going back in to see if Stede ever figures out Ed’s flirting. 🤭
Bored attorney Ed. Peak oblivious Stede. The AO3 window in the title card is no accident. Unhinged behavior. Have I intrigued you without too many spoilers?? Check out what @curiosityrocks.bsky.social and I made for #OFMDBB25! Summary/tags ⬇️

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy. Working on it🤷🏻‍♀️.

Ice dyeing on silk, day two. The one on the left had two ice dye rounds, the one on the right had one round. I’m pretty pleased with them at the moment and may still do more with them.

Was just listening to the playlist I made from the albums I listed the other day when that was going around, and I was jump scared by the opening notes of The Chain. And I puddled up thinking of this glorious day. From @sambaschutte.bsky.social ‘s instagram.

Ok, I’m trying ice dyeing and I’m skeptical but optimistic. It’s very strange because I just have to wait for it all to melt and trust it will do something interesting.Hoping to be pleasantly surprised 🤷🏻‍♀️ Wish me luck

I can’t recommend this fic enthusiastically enough. This is one of the most precious, fragile Eds ever, and we’ve been with him as he unravels a lifetime of trauma, with the help of Mr Sunshine himself. This is a lovely moment to meet them if you’ve been waiting. ❤️‍🩹. Truly gorgeous writing.
i started this fic in 2024 which means i've had this chapter, specifically, rattling around in my brain like a ball bearing for a FULL YEAR.

anyway it's free space day xx 💖

My mom Liz has been gone 16 years, which is a quarter of my life. She’d be almost 90, which she’d hate, so circle of life I guess, but I never stop missing her. She’d love our pirates, and you all. ❤️‍🩹

The rainy season has fully begun in Seattle and Ed’s having a hard time with it. Stede knows how much the battle jacket comforts Ed so he’s wrapped him up in it. Now they’re watching Wellington Paranormal and giggling. Thank you @baladria.bsky.social and @ghostalservice.bsky.social for my boys💖
