Are any of you all watching Our Flag Means Death on HBOMax?
Me! You can talk to me!
He doesn't travel well. He's like fine shrimp.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Me too! I was Not Prepared for the Taika Waititi Hotness. (Not like he's not attractive or (more often) adorable, but he's not generally someone I find "hot".)

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Yay amy and juliana! Have you both seen the last two episodes? I feel like I've been going feral all day just thinking about them.
I don't even watch OFMD (yet), and I still shrieked at the GIFs from episode 9.
I'm honestly not sure I could consciously replicate the noise I made during a certain part of that scene.

Holy smokes, yeah. (There is so much about this show I was unprepared for.) I do think he's an attractive man, but who knew that the middle-aged, long-haired leather biker look was gonna kick it up to 11?

We've not seen the last few episodes, because we were catching up on other stuff, but I'm So Excited to be watching it now. I'm sure we'll get through them all this weekend.

.... (looks over at M) Of course. That's why I find Waititi-as-Blackbeard attractive. My Type, let me show you it.

Did it sound like [screech of joyful disbelief only dolphins could hear]?

Right?!? I have always been "You have spicy brains and appear to be kind of a goof, let us hang out and talk for hours" about him, and then THAT showed up on my screen.

Thrive to spite them
I really want to see OFMD , I'm following a lot of stuff on Tumblr. At first I wasn't sure but now I'm like -- I want it. But I don't have HBOMax.
HBO Max and Discovery Plus are going to be merged or bundled or something because of the ..whatever merger that is causing us to go closer and closer to an epic entertainment monopoly. I may wait and see what the pricing will be for that and decide about getting HBO Max.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

The first episode of OFMD is free on HBOMax -- you can watch without having an account/login. And if you have Hulu, you can add HBOMax for a 7-day free trial, which is plenty of time to binge-watch 10 episodes.

Oooh, OK. I've been thinking of getting Discovery+ to feed my unfortunate home reno show addiction, and I couldn't justify adding that and HBOMax. But word of Taika Waititi Hotness had me conflicted. This might solve that quandry.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
OFMD is a fast watch, very enjoyable. I also watched Bridgerton this weekend - didn't like this season as much as the first one. But watching those two close together and then reading The League of Gentlewomen Witches made for some nice thematic leisure time. I would like more pirates now, please.
