Welcome to where I talk about pirates (OFMD ones specifically), Time Lords and Taylor Swift. She/her. 90s baby. 🇬🇧 pfp by @self-induljennt.bsky.social
Pinned
Had a complete brain meltdown and I may have done the best typo anyone has ever done in a OFMD fic

This is apparently Ed's new alter ego 🤣🤣

May I offer you a silly, fluffy Gentlebeard meet-cute in these trying times? In no way inspired by when I went to orchestra rehearsal the other day with my jumper on backwards. Nope. Not inspired by that at all...

Rated T, 3k words.

Introduce yourself with the name your parents almost gave you

Had I been a boy, I'd be James Maitland, after my Dad's Grandad and then an old family name

But a week before I was born, my mum's 21 year old soul cat passed away, so I also very nearly named Esme after her
Introduce yourself with the name your parents almost gave you

Alexis if I’d been a boy, nickname Alyosha (my mom was a Russian lit major). Alexis actually woulda been a cool NB name
Introduce yourself with the band your parents almost gave you

Richard or Robert.

I would’ve been either Dick or Bob if I’d been born with… y’know, the first thing 😂

Turns out the *first* ultrasound tech was more right than anyone knew, about my actual gender, but.

OFMD fandom you know what to do😂

there are many of us, come hang out!
The pirates I imagine Taylor being shipmates with.

ALSO - how have we as a queer community never talked about this show!!!??? (to my rather poor memory’s knowledge at least) I mean… THIS was my Heated Rivalry.

Where are my OFMD bloomfs!?

just watched a TikTok from an American living here and she said it’s so upsetting that British children have no childhood because we teach them to be adults too young & I was like okay, go on….

She means because children are taught to use cutlery at nursery rather than hands

I’m sorry what

I get so nervous when people are posting cryptic stuff, I’m like what do I need to be worried about now??

When for all I know it could just be something really specific to them and this is very much a me problem I’m aware so idk what I’m trying to say here other than the world is too scary rn

When I choose to see the good side of things, I'm not being naive. It is strategic and necessary. It's how I learned to survive through everything. I know you see yourself as a fighter. Well, I see myself as one too. This is how I fight - Everything Everywhere All At Once

Hey loves, I need help and need to add to my to-do list. If you've ever wanted to get some art from me now would be a really lovely time. 🧡

Please help me fill up my coin purse again and give this a share. Thank you so much.
Liz, thank you so much. You actually pushed me to make a better graphic for this. 🧡 🧡

I hate this cycle of being upset about work but then remembering it’s a good thing I have a solid position and am able to work but then also checking the news & feeling bad I even feel bad about work and being like terrified to do anything bc I’m just waiting for the news to get even more scarier

“The world’s most valuable private company makes rockets that sometimes work and child pornography” is a factual statement and the most damning indictment of capitalism I’ve ever seen.

I’ve posted The Sweet Spot, a fluffy innkeeper era story. In which two former pirates go slow, have their second first time, and learn to love and be loved.

I hope it provides some comfort ❤️
