Black Sails gets my fav vine that haunts me whenever I am trying to explain anything with graphs.

[Video ID: Silver and Madi are on the Walrus in a room with a table of maps as the Nickelback song Photograph plays. One cut-up line from the song plays as the video fades between the two characters.

"Look at this graph!"

Silver points to some things on the map and smirks. Madi appears unimpressed. Silver tries to use a navigation tool. Madi is concerned. Silver looks away from Madi, thinking. Silver hastily puts the tool onto the map and then the ship blows up. End ID]

Ask a historian, “What was mankind’s greatest invention?” Fire? The wheel? The sword? I would argue it’s history itself. History isn’t fact. It’s narrative, one carefully curated and shaped. Under the pen strokes of the right scribe, a villain becomes a hero, a lie becomes the truth.

[Image ID: information about the event written out on the backdrop of a seascape that looks like sunset. The text says: Fellow pirates and fans of Black Sails! On January 25th 2024 we will all be celebrating 10 years since our favorite show premiered. Because of this, we would like to invite you all to create a fanart book with us! "Know no shame!" We all remember Meditations and how the title page dedication from Thomas broke and empowered us... How about we create our own dedications to the show?

We love them! Are you a writer? Fabulous! Join us! Are you a fan and just want to say thank you, yes, please! It's your piece of paper!

so I've been listening to this song for years, but last week I suddenly got one particular scene flash in my head, and then a flood of painful feelings about how Silver sees himself, especially in relation to Madi and Flint. armed with madisilverflint feels I then descended into a not-quite fugue state, and am now resurfacing with this. may it pull you into sharing my pain ;)

We are the many…
