in case you didn’t know, i’m fucking gay

I just love how supportive and kind the show made Stede, from the first episode he’s trying to help his crew better themselves, paying them wages (something Stede bonnet did irl by the way). He cares about their emotional well being he is such a golden retriever of a man-

And then- when Ed comes into his life and Stede is instantly on board to teach him the ways of a gentleman and fucks up a whole ship of people who put him down, and the whole exchange where he’s just like let’s forget the whole murder thing, oh you killed ur dad? Bitch probably had it coming xoxo Stede

Even when he goes home and he’s slow to realise how good the life Mary has built for herself is, he goes on to Stan her paintings and her work and he even fangirls over her new boyfriend

I bet he sees Blackbeard going through his villain period next season and he’s just like ✨ yassssssss my love, stab them all, Lucius who? Hahaha ✨

So many in thoughts in my head but just that Ed had to kill Lucius because he represented who he was becoming, Lucius encourages his soft side, supports him through Stede leaving, is himself a creative and the most open about his sexuality on the ship, so Ed throwing him off board to commit to his Blackbeard persona is really just him shoving down all of what he could have been and had with stede and the fucking tragedy and OHMYGODITHOUGHTTHISWOULDJUSTBEAFUNNYSHOWABOUTPIRATESHELP

ok nvm what they did was way funnier

please tell me this is the reunion. i dont want anything but for this to be the first interaction they've had since breaking up

every time theres a development in the our flag means death production the porn bots that follow me quiver in fear

the devil works fast but sad gays work faster

HOLY SHIT ☠

they used betta fish as reference for merman stede's tail in ed's dream and i made the terrible decision of looking up the symbolism of this fish now i don't know what to do with what i discovered (i'll probably kms or something like that)

on-screen lovers and off-screen besties is literally the best dynamic ever

It seems this far 2020 has been a bitch to everyone except star wars community. We're really getting the cake.

What’s writing, you know? What does writing actually mean?

I thought I should post this before season 2 comes out

People are sleeping on interior chinatown😭

It somehow mocks but is also a tribute to TV and movie tropes, its about minority representation in media and its infinite nuance, its about self confidence and personal growth. Evolution of buddy cop films, evolution of chinese kung fu films, law and order, jackie chan, the side character’s story, the fourth wall, the narrative.

Its amazing, sweet, intentionally cheesy done well.

Plsplspls, i need to talk to someone about it💀✋🏻

How does Taika Waititi (and honestly every single person who works on more than one film project, like, ever) have time for all that?? I have to read one (1) book within the span of a month and absolutely lose it
