also, look, i know it's ed's fault izzy lost his leg. i know that. but the funniest thing to me is everyone like "ed cut his leg off!" and jim never once saying "actually--"

jim really nodding along like "yes. ed did that. ed was the one with the saw. yes. absolutely."

I love drawing Ed all sad. ‘Send him to Doggy Heaven’ indeed. Was trying something a little more stylized here. The purple was just so the white background wouldn’t hurt my eyes but by the end I was really liking it.

those ofmd screencaps paired with reductress headlines fill a hole in my heart no man ever could

Okay, so let me see if I understand correctly:

Boys wanting to write poetry is a metaphor for boys wanting the freedom to make out in the back of old bookstores and to wear lipstick while reciting Shakespearean sonnets without having to hear the constant disapproval of others

Men running away to become pirates is a metaphor for men running away from the safe, heteronormative lives society forced them into in order to start a more genuine, albeit more dangerous, life for themselves

Nerdy teens fighting monsters together is a metaphor for teens who were once outcasted by their community for being different helping each other to confront their trauma and to become the heroes of their own stories

And women playing baseball is a metaphor for women reclaiming their femininity after spending most of their lives being told they’re “not real girls” because they don’t fit the mold the patriarchy wants them to fit into

But ultimately all of them are just metaphors for a friend group being gayer than the fucking fourth of July

DEATH: change, transformation, transition, endings, rebirth

THE FOOL: innocence, freedom, spontaneity, new beginnings

Important takeaways from the OFMD teaser:

Ed appears to have decorated a female wedding figurine to look like himself to match the one that looks like Stede I'M DYING

Ed has outfitted himself with one two, three four - NINE guns

Frenchie is getting into the spirit of things

Stede did a punch!

Ed and Stede are fighting soldiers and running towards each other across the beach????!!!

EDIT - further discoveries:

Ed has been counting the days (tally marks on the wall) since he and Stede separated :(

DEAD BOY DETECTIVES VIEWERSHIP

Even though the show is or has been removed from the top ten series list on Netflix, it doesn’t mean that we should give up on the binge. The show needs the viewership, Netflix needs to know that the show has a fanbase. Please, keep rewatching, keep rating with double thumbs, complete the show because completion rates matter, keep convincing your friends to watch it, and keep sharing the message about the show.

Update: check out my recent post for more about the viewership and basically how Netflix operates.
