what i really want to read and have yet to find is a fic that. like. is told from izzy’s perspective and at first it seems like you run of the mill izzy-centric fic, where izzy is really smart and competent and the ship depends on him and he knows what’s best for everyone (especially ed). and ed is this toddler with violent mood swings, and stede is a buffoon that managed to take advantage of ed, and every single member of the crew is an idiot and no one knows anything besides him. but the more the story progresses the more it becomes obvious how skewed his worldview is. stede and his crew are way smarter than he gives them credit for and routinely solve problems where he can’t. ed never seems to lose his temper and is capable of taking care of himself even when izzy isn’t around, despite izzy’s insistence on the contrary. he leaves the ship for a while, is sure he’ll find chaos when he returns, but when he comes back everything is fine. and soon it becomes so obvious how wrong he is, he himself can’t ignore it. and then i guess it’s author’s choice whether he actually realizes how wrong he is about pretty much everything, or if he decides to dig his heels in his own fictional reality deeper and becomes worse.
i just really want a fic that takes full advantage of izzy’s skewed pov.

Watching the first season of OFMD with my little brother. Dad joined us for ep2 and ep3.
He laughed at the jokes several times and seemed to enjoy it overall. Though, ep4 and 5 are only starting to be queer enough for my oblivious father to notice. Only after that shall the true test begin. If I drag him into watching the entire thing, I will consider my time on this earth worthwhile and him a true ally.
I already made him watch both seasons of Good Omens, but. Good Omens is gentle about queerness. And it works so well in universe! Don't get me wrong! I love how they do it!! But. OFMD THROWS the faggots in your face (as it should), it's agressive about just how GAY everybody is (as it should) and it makes sure to show queerness happening EVERYWHERE (as it should), it YELLS the gay at you (as it should). It's the real shit. A true test for allies, I reckon.
I'm interested to see what his reaction will be, since he's very much straight and not used to queer media at ALL.

It's been a fucking wild day so far. I don't think I've ever felt so betrayed before. I think I could handle Izzy dying and the horrible writing surrounding that. But to read what David has been saying about the show? Such a big fucking betrayal of what this show was in season 1 and what everyone (David included!!) has previously said about it. He fucking lost the plot in the worst way. To top it off, he thinks he did a good job and thought we were going to like it. I think that's the worst part.
This show means so much to us and to know what the creator really thinks about it all? Fuck, man. This was supposed to be the show where shit like this didn't happen.

I desperately need to learn how to draw better so i can draw izzy in the cute/hot stuff i find
(context: randomly got reminded via Instagram of a queer owned clothing brand in NYC, actually went looking to see if they had any leather look shorts available for me and Housemate for this summer (they do not ☹️) and found just. the best leather look open vest and thong combo. Izzy would look fucking amazing in it but i know my artistic ability will NOT match the image in my head aksndkfnggm)

i had the mental image of ed laying on the couch, head resting on stede's lap, with stede gently stroking ed's hair with one hand and holding a book with the other, reading aloud to him.
and then that just made me think "rest in peace edward teach you would've loved audiobooks" lol.

i've seriously never been more upset that a show got cancelled like holy shit i didn't think i even COULD get this upset. it's like. a combination of how much i love it & just how absolutely impossible it seemed that they'd cancel it despite 1) it being one of their most popular shows 2) how much they marketed season two 3) it very explicitly only ever wanting 3 seasons
