Hey #ofmdcraftfair friends:

This email from @southernequality.bsky.social just made me cry a little bit. This is the work we made happen. Almost 10% of this was *us*- our show, our crafts, our hyping, our love.

When things feel hopeless, when you feel powerless, remember: WE DID THIS.

CAMPAIGN FOR SOUTHERN EQUALITY $1.5 million dollars, Lis. That's how much our Trans Youth Emergency Project has directly distributed to families of trans youth as well as an incredible national network of frontline partners and providers supporting them as they access gender affirming care in the face of cruel healthcare bans.

Paging Dr. Teach!

#OFMD #OFMDfanart
A photograph of Taika Waititi acting as a doctor in a show. I have illustrated Ed's long charcoal gray hair over it the image, swept up into a messy bun with tendrils of hair sticking out along his temples and around the base of his neck. His eyebrows and beard have been darkened. It looks like Ed Teach in a Doctor AU. The words "Ed Teach" are in yellow to his left, where on the original it reads "Taika Waititi."

Drawing of Ed and Stede from Our Flag Means Death. They're having a tea together, both holding tea cups. Ed is watching Stede talk. He's got little red hearts floating around his head. Stede is gesturing and laughing while he talks to Ed, oblivious to Ed's affection. Damnit, Stede. They're both wearing their season 1 costumes. Ed has his long beard and full leather on. Stede is wearing one of his fancy frilled suits.

When I greet nature as family,

a tree, a smudge of lichen,

the invisible complexity of the sky,

I feel a reciprocity of love.

When I reach for wonder as a receptive student,

I always find it reaching back.

Today’s the 50th anniversary of the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald on Lake Superior. Between 1875-1975 there were 6000 shipwrecks on Lake Superior and no major ones since. Now this song can be stuck in your head, too. youtu.be/FuzTkGyxkYI?...

Wanted to do another tiny Ed tonight. He's ready to introduce the crew to their brave, brave Captain.

#ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath
Small digital drawing of Ed from Our Flag Means Death. He's dressed in Stede's clothes and his hair is down around his face. His shirt and leggings are white and his breeches are dark orange. He's ready to stare down every crew member until they sufficiently clap.

Celebrity Ed, giving a TedTalk on _____

#OFMD
A modified version of a recent Getty Images picture of Taika Waititi speaking on a. Stage into a microphone and holding his phone, originally credited to Unique Nicole. The image has been manipulated with a digital paintbrush to give Taika long hair tied half-up, like his character Ed Teach from Our Flag Means Death. He also has Ed's tattoos, and a skull and crossbones on his white T-shirt. The Getty images credit has been switched to Lucius Spriggs, another character from the show.

#BREAKING: Justice Jackson has issued an "administrative" stay, temporarily pausing a district court order that would've required the USDA to continue using contingency funds to pay SNAP benefits.

The stay expires 48 hours after the First Circuit rules on USDA's request for a stay pending appeal.
