i think the lovely thing about this fandom is that it is constantly growing and changing fr like… there are always gonna be new kids who fall in love with the show bc its the first production theyre apart of and older fans coming back to reminisce on the movie and everyone in between. and yeah it’s over and nothing New is really happening (yet. looking at u, uksies) but the foundation is here and it keeps on growing and i think that is so lovely and beautiful and im glad u all are here
I can't be the only Brit who feels like the current state of the UK seems... different, right? Like we've had plenty of crises before, but the sheer scale of the bullshit this time around just feels bigger somehow? As though something's about to crack, and everything's tense.
The cost of living crisis - especially with these staggeringly high energy prices. The climate crisis - with this summer in particular feeling especially obvious with such intense heatwaves. The NHS, underfunded and poorly managed for over a decade, genuinely feels like it's gonna collapse any second.
Perhaps my perspective is naive, or influenced too much by my own personal struggles atm, or my assessment premature, but I kinda just wanted to put some thoughts out there to see if folks feel similiar or not.
I’m having a full blown panic attack!! I live in the U.K and apparenly It’ll be coming to the US first and some people are saying it won’t be out in the U.K till next YEAR??? I used to use soap2day and that’s been taken down, any advice would be greatly appreciated
Fresh. That’s the word that he keeps coming back to. Growing up in the city, he’s never had access to this kind of environment– fresh air and quiet, trees everywhere, dense wood all around. It’s lovely, but David really hasn’t had the chance to explore it.
Something tugs in his chest, and whispers in the back of his mind: You have time now. Why not?
Seventeen minutes later, dressed in jeans and converse, wearing a blue and black flannel, with nothing but a backpack full of four plastic water bottles and a whole box of granola bars, David crosses the treeline in his own backyard and walks into the woods.

David Jacobs doesn't know who he is. He wants to find out.
Jack Kelly knows exactly who he is. Maybe he doesn't want to.
After a lifetime of feeling stagnant, Jack and David search for the answers.

When your favorite showrunner/writer casually namedrops your new favorite human being in an insta live.
OF COURSE I lost my mind.
OF COURSE I had to share that!
(Q was who DJ would’ve loved to have on the show.)
Can you IMAGINE?!?! I mean, I love and adore Taika and I can’t imagine anyone else as Blackbeard anymore (that ship sailed the second the camera panned up that gorgeous frame of his) but my mind very easily provides a very different BB (because we all KNOW how INSANELY TALENTED Pedro is when the camera’s are rolling) - GOOD LORD!!!
So yeah, just had to share this! *sighs happily*
(I also keep forgetting that Kristian probably knows him and worked with him - still haven’t watched but the resolve is melting - that damn robe is very very sexy the more I see him in it)
