Today was Day 2, episodes 3 and 4 of Deadloch!
I realised I totally forgot to crew reactions up for Deadloch yesterday! Sorry all! Here's some from todays watch!
On to episodes 5/6 tomorrow! Same time same place!
== LubeAsACrew ==
The second Lube as a crew was widely successful! Trending at #7! Thanks for catching it @_irene_adler!
Everybody had a lot of fun with it, here's some highlights!
Our lovely friend over at @Astroglide left some fantastic tweets for us, I'm including a few that stood out.
== Stats ==
Some interesting stats today! Thank you @meowzawowza_ on twitter for these details!
More stats by @lucyrosebutler regarding How well OFMD is doing in the US!
== UK News ==
Reminder! 5 days until S2 airs in the UK!
Thanks as always to our lovely @lamentus1 for the update in the UK!
"I tweeted at 13 lucky TV Guide journalists in the UK all about Our Flag Means Death and the efforts of the fandom and also why the show is so great.
I have a document with their twitters and email addresses. Email will be my next line of attack! If anyone wants access to the UK TV Guide press list let me know!
We were thinking that we should introduce a spoiler free way for people who are starting to watch season 2 on the BBC to interact with the campaign on Twitter. I think it might be to encourage them to follow #OurFlagBBC while encouraging anyone posting spoilers under that hashtag to add #ofmd2spoilers so that people can avoid seeing spoilers.
One other thing that’s coming up later in February is that Chxrlotte on our UK crew will be releasing an Our Flag Means Death inspired track on her label on 24 February! She has a ton of gorgeous tracks that are often inspired by shows like OFMD and Good Omens, and the new one is about Ed and Stede. I’ve had a preview of the new track and it’ll make you cry!
@shutupchxrlotte's Twitter
Her other stuff is on Apple Music and Spotify here"
Please have a listen!

== Other News ==
Warner bros stock is still dropping! Sure looks like cancelling OFMD wasn't a very lucrative plan. Thanks @iamadequate_ for this!
Max still has billboards up for OFMD in Hollywood! Thanks @LeanneBrodie13 for catching this!
Also, @_irene_adler caught some audacity from Max in trying to monetize OFMD merch for Valentine's Day.
== Favor to Ask ==
I've been working on a bit of a side project of putting together an OFMD Renewal Repository for resources that doesn't require anyone to log into ... twitter, IG, tumblr, facebook, etc. It's still WIP but I'd love some constructive feedback if anyone would be willing to take a look and let me know what they think. I won't be replacing the tumblr recaps with it, but will be posting them there minus the gifs at the end so they can be shared to other platforms if needed.
My specific questions are:
Are there more categories / different information you'd like to have added?
Is it generally easy to find information?
Is this a bad idea? (too many places with this stuff already?)
Other feedback welcome!
I am totally cool with constructive feedback, feel free to dm me :)
== Love Notes ==
Hey lovelies. Do you ever worry you're too much? Like you talk too much, or feel too much, or come off too strong? I know I do some days.
Just remember, on days you're feeling too much, you're probably shining your brightest. What other people think is too much is just you, and you're allowed to shine! Don't ever let their inability to see your worth stop you.
Saw this on IG today and thought of you call. Gnight crew, all the love <3
== Daily Darby / Tonight's Taika ==
These gifs go together, I don't make the rules.

People I’d like to get to know better!
I got tagged by @ginbiscuit a while back and forgot about it until now, thanks for the tag friend!!
Last Song Played: Dial Drunk by Noah Kahan (y'all this song is so fucking good)
Currently Watching: Taskmaster NZ, it's good low-key fun! I'm also slowly re-watching Deadloch and in about an hour or two will be watching OFMD season 2 (HYPED. IM SO HYPED FOR IT)
Currently Reading: Detransition, Baby by Torrey Peters
Current Obsession: This feels obvious but the gay pirates lmao. Yeah, OFMD still has a strangle hold. However, in non-media, I am also a little bit obsessed my garden. It's so fun.
I'm gonna tag @draculafemme, @zombiethingy, @ladythmpr, @primelinchen-the-second - but only if you feel like doing it! If it's not your thing I am waving hello!

TAG SOMEONE YOU WANT TO KNOW AND/OR SOME OF YOUR BESTIES
Tagged by @wellhalesbells because she always tags me in the fun stuff.
Last song: "Jaded" by Miley Cyrus. It's ridiculously good. Otherwise it's been a lot of Taylor Swift. I fell down the rabbit hole.
Last movie: Meg 2: The Trench. (Girl, we share a fandom again, I'm obsessed with it and them and their family and all their bad, sometimes himbo level decisions.)
Currently watching: Most recently a rewatch of Designated Survivor (I forgot how intense the first season is);
Other stuff I watched this year: As I already mentioned, Meg 2 (agree that it's a cinematic masterpiece). Other movies include Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey (truly awful, and less tongue-in-cheek than I expected, still mad that it violated the #1 rule of horror movies); Red White & Royal Blue; Cocaine Bear (also agree on it being a cinematic masterpiece); the first two Lord of the Rings movies (I had not previously seen them because they're not my thing, but my friends insisted); Clue (because I'm always watching it); Bros (which would have been great except Billy Eichner's character annoyed the shit out of me); I also went on a Labor Day Queer Movie Marathon that included Love, Simon, Geography Club, The Thing About Harry, and Fire Island; and all the Mystery 101 Hallmark movies. As for tv shows, Leverage (OG & Redemption); Will Trent; Air Disasters; The Lincoln Lawyer; 9-1-1 (OG); Big Sky; Rizzoli & Isles; iZombie; Fringe; Grimm; The Good Wife; The Boys.
Shows I dropped/didn’t finish: I need to finish Deadloch. Otherwise I don't think I've intentionally dropped something this year?
Currently reading: "Husband Material" by Alexis Hall. I loved "Boyfriend Material" so I'm hoping this is just as good. I only read one thing at a time because I can't keep shit straight in my head.
Currently listening to: 1989 (TV) has been on repeat.
Currently working on: well it certainly isn't fic. learning how to sleep more than 4 hours a night.
No pressure tagging @ereborne @newyearknwwme and anyone else who wants to do it!

thank you to whoever recommended Deadloch
it's a cop show about lots of murders in a small town with an out of town detective (Eddie) and the local senior sergeant (Dulcie). There are many queer characters
Eddie is... strongly Crowley coded.
Doesn't believe she's any good
Never remembers people's names
Puts up a hell of a show to assure everyone she is Fine when she is very clearly not
also: a lovely relationship development, various levels of peril and many disaster gays
OH AND I FORGOT Dulcie, the local cop, being Aziraphale coded
