Twitter screenshot of 4 tweets from David Jenkins from March 30th, 2023 quotetweeting a fan that said "watching ofmd isn't enough. i need to eat it"

DJ:
Do not eat the show. Please.

We worked really hard on it please don't eat it.

Feel like some of you aren't hearing me? About the not eating?

Kidding. Wanted you to eat it this whole time. Enjoy, suckas 🍝 🍝🍝

My friend and I coined the term "Pineconing" for this phenomenon. The film King Knight has Aubrey Plaza billed third, and she has like 5 seconds of - not even screen time - just a voice over as a literal pinecone 😡

Screenshot of a Google synopsis of the film King Knight. Matthew Gray Gubler is billed first, then Andy Milonakis, then Aubrey Plaza is billed third as "Pinecone"

We're over 50% now! Thanks to everyone who voted so far, and I hope we can maintain our new lead all week 🏴‍☠️ We can now add "unserious" to our "loyal and noisy" and "impressively ferocious" descriptor list. Where is your sense of whimsy, tumblr user frasiest?

Jemaine "Ten Pages" Clement would never let that happen. Trust.

Twitter screenshot from Jemaine's account, replying to Taika on March 25, 2022:

"But what are all the people who've written gay fan fiction about you and @rhysiedarby going to do now that you've just put it in the show making all their work useless? Because I have about ten pages."

There is infinite pirate art ♾ but @blandbeard.bsky.social has a whole art server treasure trove if you dm for access. Then pretty much everything @citrussyndicate.bsky.social, @self-induljennt.bsky.social, @illustoryart.bsky.social, and @andreacwhite.bsky.social create.

A pencil on yellow post-in drawing of Stede holding a protest flag that reads "Let me kiss my boyfriend on screen again!" His eyebrows are furrowed in anger. Unsigned, but the artist is Mari/Smolbus

A black and white digital drawing of Ed as an astronaut pressing his hand in his spaceship during a space walk. The text reads: "So what did you think? Play it again? I would love that."

It is unsigned but by gayjeris, ispired by In Favor with Their Stars by gayjeris.

A digital painting of the S1E10 scene of Stede pulling his dinghy to the sea to return to Ed. The sun is setting, and the waves are lapping at the shore.

An adorable mock-up of a children's golden book cover of Stede as The Gentleman Pirate with a lighthouse in the background. It is in a colorful kid-friendly style with Stede in a teal suit. Text reads "A Little Pirate Book/
My Little Golden Book About/
The Gentleman Pirate/
By David Jenkins"
It is unsigned, but the artist is @rebelsophie

I see them everywhere #Gentlebeard #PabuSabu

Taika dressed as Ed at the end of S2E4. His eyes are wide and sparkling, resembling the mascot Sabu-Chan's eyes in the quoted post.

BTS photo of a page of Lucius' sketchbook from OFMD that Simone Nathan posted on Twitter. The sketchbook is open on a plastic tote. A pencil sketch of 4 seahorses, 3 standard, and 1 with Taika's face with Blackbeard's mustache and beard.

Archiving these sketchbook pages here (with searchable alt text too) in case Simone deletes twt.

Omg half of their feed is either eyeroll emojis or completely missing the context for what they're responding to and then responding to the clarification 🤣 I wonder why people felt the need to limit responses... 🤔 (likely after one encounter with them lol)

Screenshot of the original reply guy's complaint "See far too many posts that don't allow comments...😡"

It's so fun! It is so delightfully silly. I asked it what goofus doofus was up to since @ourflagmeansjeff.bsky.social asked, and I can see it.

Screenshot from youraislopboresme.

I asked:

"What is goofus doofus up to now?"

A human LARPing as AI responded:

"He's watching Wakfu"

I wonder if the corner bead or nails/screws weren't covered with enough joint compound and a leak or humidity is making them rust over time

Happy birthday, OFMD! In 4 years we have raised over $401,866.16 for charities and provided over 14,000 meals with Samba and Momentus for the LA Food Bank, all inspired by our love for the show. Maybe we can get to $500k in 2026? The Fandom Market opens Thursday! www.32auctions.com/organization...
