Ficversary day and #OFMD S2 anniversary day!

Here's the note I wrote:

"I woke up on the morning of season 2 and felt a bit overexcited. I couldn't remember any of the previous theories for where Ed's ship might be. I thought, what if Archie had it?"

🏴‍☠️ James Tom

Our friends over at Adopt Our Crew were out at James Tom's show and passed out some love <3

James Tom also had a bit of fun with the new name change with HBOMax!

(If you hadn't heard yet: Max is going back to an old name – HBO Max 🤦 See this article for more info: https://www.vulture.com/article/hbo-max-streaming-name-change.html)

🏴‍☠️ David Jenkins

Chaos Dad sent some encouragement! (And let us know it wasn't a coded message, lol, he knows us too well.)

Our dear temporal-discounting, Ruth, was kind enough to share her beautiful ink, and David commented on the vibe!

💌 Love Notes

Hey there lovelies, I've got quite a few recaps lined up. It's been a crazy month for me... I figure everyone else is having a similar time, but I certainly hope not! I hope you are having the best times of your life.

But if you're not.. just know it won't always be this way. Sometimes we gotta move back to move forward again, and like this note from Positively Present says.. sometimes we've got to let go of some things to make room to grow.

Please be kind to yourselves lovelies. Be kind, and give yourself some grace.

Love you Crew.

💌 Love Notes

Hey lovelies, back to catching up again, I've given up on worrying too much about it, it is what it is, at least I'll get April done tonight.

I hope you're all staying safe out there, like @thelatestkate below, I really don't know how to fix the world, so I'm just taking little steps forward to keep sane and do my best at what I can. Please remember that you're wonderful, and no matter how bad things get, they can always get better again. Be kind to yourselves, lovelies. <3

💌 Love Notes

Hey lovelies. As I was getting ready to post this, "This Woman's Work" started playing, and hand to goodness it came up randomly on Spotify (after I'd chosen the below Love Notes art already). I thought it was a good sign to send out a gentle reminder that we all still have a little life in us yet.

Things are tough right now. Every day we're fighting, every day we're pushing back, and it's exhausting. Please take a break. Please handle today and no matter what happens, even if you stay on that break, come back to this world tomorrow. You have so much life left in you, and you have so much love and kindness to give to this world, and this world to give to you.

You deserve soft times, and love, and we're gonna have to fight for them for a while, but I hope you know you deserve them, and they will happen one day. We just have to hold onto hope.

If I was going to be stuck in the Gravy Basket with anyone, I'm glad it's all of you. Love you Crew.

💌 Love Notes

Hey there crew. It's been a while. I'm sorry this edition is so small after such a huge amount of time. Trying to keep them to 2-4 days, but we'll see how that goes with how behind I am.

It's been a lot lately. Home, work, the world, the fandom, just a lot's been happening all at once. I've been trying to focus on a few things that I've had to work on outside the fandom as well as taking some mental health breaks and that's been keeping me busy.

So tonight, for the love notes, I just wanted to take a second to say thank you. So many of you have been so kind to me and so many others over this past year + that I've been here. Even if I just get to see your name pop up on my notifications for a like or a reblog, or if we chat, or I just get to catch glimpses of your works across the various platforms, it brings me a lot of joy.

Some of you, I only really know through tags. Others I know from discord, or bsky, or instagram. Some of you I've never spoken to outside of tumblr - but I can honestly tell you, you have improved my life by being here.

Others of you, I consider you some of my closest friends. Friends I've never met, miles away around the world, and your influence on me is so incredibly profound - and even if we never meet each other in person, I will never be the same because of you.

I'm so very blessed and lucky to have found this place - to have found you all. I know a lot of you feel the same way about the people you interact with here on the day to day.

That being said, the world is a complicated place. Sometimes things don't go the way we planned, whether on a personal, fandom, or global level. Sometimes people disappoint us, and spaces we thought fit us shift in shape.

No matter what changes for you in this world, I want you to know that your kindness, and your interactions with me and everyone else have made a positive difference. Thousands and millions of tiny interactions continue to happen within our fandom every day.

Some of them don't go the way we hope they will - but the majority of them, are beautiful. Sometimes we have to learn from them, and they help us grow, and sometimes they nourish us in hard times.

We are a community of wonderfully kind people who were brought together by chance. Thank you for being here. Thank you for making my life better, and this world a better place.

💌 Love Notes

Hey lovelies. I know this week was a bit of an emotional roller coaster! The 3 year anniversary of OFMD was on 03/03 and then the 1 year anniversary of David telling us 'officially' there was no renewal was on 03/07.

I remember that day really well. I remember crying at my desk for hours while I tried to work. I remember streaming OFMD with several crewmates trying to find some semblance of calm. It's hard to believe it's been a whole year.

The renewal campaign efforts were so intense those first few months, and then David's message hit us all like a ton of bricks. But you know what? You all still kept showing up.

Whether it was for renewal efforts, menacing WB execs, supporting your fellow crew financially or emotionally, raising money for marginalized groups, for cast & crew in their continued endeavors - you kept showing up.

That's what community is. We show up for each other.

I know the craft fair has been a big topic for several weeks now, and I'm loving every ounce of it because look at what it's done. Over $100,000 for trans youth, our sibs that are currently being targeted by so many people in the US and across the world.

I know we can't afford to spend that much money all the time, but it's so incredibly inspiring what you all can do when you band together.

Please never forget the power you have, individually, but especially as a crew, as a community. We rally together so well because this crew is kind and loving and even when we have our inter-fandom squabbles, we still come together when things are most important and make magic happen.

I hope you know how proud we all are of you lovelies. I hope you all are proud of yourselves for the immense impact you made on so many lives, just by being kind.

Rest well, remember to hydrate, and take some time for you.

💌 Love Notes

Hey Lovelies! I hope you had such wonderful experiences in reminiscing about our show on the anniversary! I have said it before, and I'll say it again, this show changed my life. It changed so many lives, and helped so many people feel comfortable in their own skin. It has truly been a gift to humanity and continues to give us love and hope every day.

I am so very grateful that this show got the two seasons it did, because I ended up getting to meet all of you because of it. We are such an amazing crew, and we have accomplished so much in the art world, as well as the fundraiser world. You all are shining examples of what humanity can be when love and kindness wins. Remember that when these hard days come along and all feels overwhelming. You are the light in the dark times. You make REAL change.

Special thanks to every member of this fandom for all you do every day, as well as the fan crews out there that are still active like @AdoptOurCrew, or no longer active like #RenewAsACrew / #SaveOFMD / #OFMDFanCrew for all the engagement and love you've spread over the last few years. We appreciate all your leadership and support <3

Love you crew, Happy Anniversary to our little Gay Pirate Show.

Oh, and Ruibo Qian, our pirate queen posted these two Love Notes that day so I wanted to share them <3

💝 Fandom Donation Update

Something I really wanted to make sure to highlight is some very wonderful folks Jillian Sauers and @FranFranklyOFMD have been tracking the amounts donated to charities by the fandoms since March 2022 and as of the end of the Craft Fair, that number totaled around $300,000!

THAT IS INSANE, Y'ALL. THAT'S ALMOST A THIRD OF A MILLION DOLLARS.

Since then, even more has been updated so I'm sure we'll see a new number soon! Thank you so much Jillian and Frankie for keeping track of that!

(Note: The spreadsheet it not posted publicly for safety reasons, if you are part of the fandom and would like to learn more, check in with @/JillianSauers on Tumblr or Bluesky!)

OFMD Craft Fair

That being said, I did want to make sure I boosted this, because it's so very important.

I can't tell you how very proud I am of you all. Seriously. I've been so worried about our Trans sibs since the beginning of this year, and to know that so many of you have stepped up and gone above and beyond to create beautiful queer art, or to bid on that art, or share the craft fair in support of Trans kids, it not only keeps the flame of hope alive in me, but makes it burn so much brighter. You truly are the best crew out there, and I appreciate all you do for each other. We need each other right now so much and you are stepping up like the kind and shining examples of humanity you are. I'm so fucking proud of you. $54,800+ so far.

If you haven't already, please go visit the OFMD Craft Fair that's still going on until March 1 at 11:45 PM EST.
If you have no money right now don't worry, we understand, we're all in dire straights at the moment. If nothing else, go there to marvel at what everyone has accomplished! It's incredibly uplifting!

Thank you again to @ghostalservice and every other person who has contributed in any way. You have done such an amazing job.

Also, in case you haven't seen it yet, David Jenkins also donated some pretty amazing items last minute and they are going for crazy amounts to support our Trans sibs. <3

💌 Love Notes

Hey there lovelies. I was able to finally get this up! Only a couple days behind now. I'd really like to go back to the 2 day recaps because there's been so much more going on lately and it's hard to fit in one tumblr post for any more than 2 days at a time!

I hope you all got a chance to read Chaos Dad's OFMD Fic. I've already seen so much fan art and fics built off of it - which is so uplifting in my opinion. I know there's been questions on whether this is canon, whether it's what we'll see when we get an s3, and I think the answer right now is we just don't know.

It feels very much like a gift to keep us engaged, and spread a little joy and love in the fandom, which we can always use. So don't fret either way okay - just try to enjoy the ride if you can :).

I have to say, like so many others, my favorite quote was: "Your Fight is My Fight, your Family is My Family."

I really hope all of you know that's exactly how I and so many of your crewmates feel about you too. I know times are uncertain right now and we're all struggling to get through. But this IS all of our fights, and you all are our family. So please lean on each other if you can.

You got this lovelies, Happy Tuesday. <3

💌 Love Notes

Hey lovelies, I have been constantly thinking of you all the past two weeks. I am trying to keep my spirits up and share things when I can.

I hope you know that no matter what, you are perfect the way you are, and that the actions of a certain US president don't define you. AT ALL.
Please remember that what's going on in the US is a dying breed trying desperately to gain back the control they lost with progress, and so many of you are doing so much to prevent it. You're doing all you can.

Remember to rest, people are still fighting even when you rest. I know it feels so hard right now, but please don't give up okay?

Love you crew, since I'm so behind I'll be doing some shorter love notes til I catch up again.
