While in LA, @indarltonitrust.bsky.social and I met Tatiana Kazakova (lovingjimmorrison on insta), a production designer and art director for #OFMD. She signed my flag and shared these BTS pics, some of which she said she posted before but some may be new! We have the best cast/crew in the WORLD

Reminiscing about proposing this conference paper before s2 dropped and how MerStede completely reframed what this presentation was about 🥹 - and how cancellation reframed it even further 🥺 (If anyone wants a link to the article, still happy to share)

Never over this tbh #ofmd
The cake toppers. Ed’s clearly been getting his makeup on the Stede groom. The bride is painted to look like himself. They were so insane for this (pos)

I decorated my office door for the Halloween contest in the department but idk if I have the motivation to pull stuff out at home The fact that the highs this week are consistently 87/88 makes it so hard to get into the spirit 😩 I miss seasons and I miss the passage of time 🫠

You aren’t missing much tbh 😆 the special effects are pretty damn cool but most of the film was a montage of Freddy one-liners and kills without much in the way of plot

I am losing at Yahtzee and I am Mad About It (Ed-coded) Meanwhile spouse is just trusting me to do their math and not fuck it up on purpose (Stede-coded) I am not messing it up (still Ed-coded) ~5 min later~ Spouse just won and isn’t gloating or anything (Stede) I’m pouting anyway (Ed)

The other night, my spouse was describing something from a movie neither of us has seen, expecting me to remember what they were talking about. I was growing increasingly impatient until it clicked:
They had seen it in a clip show
This account reviews movies based on the clip included in whatever clip show we have on as background noise. The review will include the clip show title and the ranking of the film, but minimal details about what scene was clipped.

These were done for the finale but Stede crossing out dead and circling alive was one of my favorite moments during the s2 premiere drop - so perfectly in character 🥹

The clear love that the cast/crew still hold for our little pirate show is how I know we’ll get season 3 someday TW is far too intense and unhinged (/pos) to let it go permanently If we’re getting We’re Wolves all these years later, you can’t tell me he won’t find a way to kiss Stede Bonnet again

Final ranking for “Sam Neill is Having a Very Bad Day” triple feature: 3. Dead Calm: Fun thriller! Nicole Kidman looks like a literal fetus 2. In the Mouth of Madness: Get in bitch, we’re making fun of Stephen King 💅🏻 1. Possession: I LOVE WEIRD CINEMA! No idea what was going on but what a ride

We’ve decided to go with Dead Calm (thanks @clairegregoryau.bsky.social) because we’re working through our Hooptober list and this can replace our previous choice for Terror at Sea (the other two were for Sam Neill and Movie From 1981 You Haven’t Seen)

Part two of the “Sam Neill is having a really bad day” marathon: In the Mouth of Madness Taking recs for part three - Jurassic Park feels too obvious (and also he was definitely having a good day for a decent chunk of that movie)

One is for my novel class next semester, one is for my book (terrifying to say that so casually), but this one is just for fun(?) archive.org/details/isbn... Considering that tomorrow we’re meant to wrangle Izzy and try to go to the emergency vet for his eye, this was probably a stupid impulse 🫠

Yeah, I’m ok. Just needed some time away to decide if this was a healthy place for me to be with all of the other pressures of life. I’m not 100% it is - fandom has been unhealthy for me in the past, so I might not stick around, but I’m ok. 💜

I understand the motivation for this but please keep in mind that the NYT has been promoting transphobia for years now and there have been calls for boycotts based on that and other harmful political views. I don’t think promoting our beautiful inclusive show is worth engaging with them in this way.
