[pm] The enemy? Christ, do you hear yourself? We're not at war. Half of these people aren't hurting anyone, and I take care of the ones who are. [...] Really? You can't fathom what's changed? Fucking everything has changed, Rhett. Everything.

Parker. Good to have a name, then. Good for him. I don't give a shit if he's going to leave me alone or not. I'm gonna finish what I started. I'd listen to you if you'd start saying shit worth listening to.

[pm] Well, you ain't never gotten chummy with the enemy afore movin' here, stupid. Now, suddenly, yer in bed with 'em. Can't fathom what changed. So I guess no, I wouldn't listen, so long as that list had freaks on it. But Parker's human. We don't fuckin' hunt humans. Besides, he said he'd leave you be when I told him you was my brother. Have the same respect fer yer elders. Let it go.

[hotvintagepoll]

This is a three-way poll. Only one of these men will continue to the third round of the bracket. Choose wisely.

Propaganda

Harold Nicholas (Stormy Weather, The Pirate)—it makes me so mad that he never got a chance to be a proper leading man in his own right!! watch his dancing with his brother in "Stormy Weather" [video below] and tell me this man shouldn't have been leading full on musicals on the regular!

Clark Gable (Gone With the Wind, It Happened One Night)—GWtW is an epic stretching across years so Clark has a chance to show off a whole bunch of different sides, from Hot Outsider to Husband to Father and so on. But his most attractive is his final line of the movie, made only better by the story that he lobbied the Film Industry to ‘Let Rhett Curse!’ And who is more classic 30s Hollywood than this man?

Guy Madison (5 Against the House, Till the End of Time)—no propaganda submitted

This is round 2 of the bracket. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage man.

MY JAW WAS ON THE FLOOR THE MOMENT I POPPED IN MY EARBUDS FOR THIS SDJKFNJKSDNFKSDF

Ok.

First off.

Lemme just say -

Castin and the Baroness need to be smacked upside on the heads.

I'm serious!

Hear me out.

Castin is tweaking the fuck out. His paranoia is making them all, and his pregnant wife trudge through the snow just to get to Intacia. Clearly, he's mentally compromised.

That high key makes me disappointed in the Baroness.

Because she should have talked to him not as his wife but as a Baroness the moment Castin suggested she give her title to her relative. If she just sat his ass down in the inn and gave him a quick lesson on politicking within the Empire, none of this would've happened.

CASTIN HAMMER BE ACTING LIKE NED STARK AND IT'S STRESSING ME THE FUCK OUT!

So what if there are spies everywhere and the threat of assassination is still present - THE BARONESS WAS RAISED IN SUCH SITUATIONS! SHE KNOWS BETTER HOW TO NOT ONLY SURVIVE BUT COME UP TOP!

Castin: "Do you trust me?"

BRO, DO YOU TRUST YOUR WIFE!?

OH MY GOD.

This is not the time for an 'Us against the world' moment! The Baroness should not have indulged in his paranoia. She should have taken control of the situation because THIS IS HER HOME! SHE KNOWS BETTER! NOW WE'RE IN A SHITSHOW!

Lord Boris Carter showing up means that Empress Mila is very aware of what's going on. And if she's fucking ruthless and merciless against pirates, what do you think her reaction is gonna be now!? Will Rhett and the Queen Ascendant be enough to fucking fix this? Who knows! Will the Empress demand Castin's head if it means letting the Baroness and Anri free?

Again, what a mess.

[delopsia]

I love your imagines/headcanons! Do you have any headcanons for what Rhett would be like dating someone who’s very different from him? Someone that worries a lot and is very cautious, i.e. someone who is used to following rules

aaaa thank you, nonnie! 🌼 I've been thinking about this ever since I watched it pop into my inbox 😭

He gets outed as the biggest hypocrite on earth

Okay, maybe not the biggest hypocrite, but he's up there. Rhett has always grumbled so much about his momma always worrying. It can be the littlest things, her telling him to be careful driving home, making him go upstairs and put on another layer of clothes because she's worried about frostbite. It can be the most reasonable concern known to man, and he's just '🙄'

But when you do it? It's cute.

There was a day when he took you out to the south pasture to feed the cows, and you started worrying about if the truck got stuck, what if the hay bounced off the trailer, what if he hadn't been so quick to dodge that momma cow when she charged him. And the whole time, he's just tilting his head to the side like a puppy and listening to you talk.

He has answers for all of it. He knows what to do when his truck has the misfortune of hitting a deceptive patch of mud. The hay is too heavy to bounce off, but even if it did, the cows would find it and a pissed-off cow isn't anywhere near as scary as a bull is. It's not that he likes seeing you worry; hell, he worries about you worrying sometimes, but he loves being able to explain these little mundane parts of his life to you.

Rhett isn't the greatest when it comes to you worrying about things he has no experience with, but that doesn't mean he won't hear you out and try to find something to ease your mind. Sometimes, that ends in him sitting in the corner of a doctor's office with you or at a work event that he clearly doesn't belong in. The whole time he'll be looking at you like "👁️👁️" the whole time, but he'd rather you be in this together than you have to front this all by yourself.

He does...really like to push you to break a rule or two. It's more him teasing you than anything else; he's never too serious about it. He asks if you wanna pirate that one movie that's not available in your country, or he'll try to sell you on jaywalking even though you don't even need to cross the damn street.

There was one night when things got heated in his truck just after a date, parked in the back of an empty restaurant parking lot. You're in his lap, his big hands are under your shirt, scruffy upper lip tickling you as he licks his way into your mouth when all of a sudden, he pulls back just long enough to, "You're sure y' don't wanna risk an indecency charge with me?"

Your response is...classified.

All of that being said, Rhett hates seeing you worry about him; little here and there's are fine, but rodeo season is a different monster. The worst part about it is that he can't just kiss you on the forehead and promise you that he'll be okay like he does with everything else. He doesn't know what'll happen; he might come out without a scratch, he might catch a horn the wrong way, or he might have to sit through a two-hour drive to the hospital.

Rhett gets into this little habit of coming straight to you after his rides. Technically, according to the Amelia County Rodeo rule book, he's supposed to stay with the other riders until the rodeo is over and the winners are called, but he doesn't give much of a damn. He's finding his way over to you regardless, wrapping you up in a hug, nuzzling the side of your head with his nose because he doesn't want his hands to get dirt all over your face.

You're the first person who gets to know that he's okay; it's the tradeoff for him worrying you sick. And you're very, very fortunate that Rhett, aside from a sprained wrist and a few cracked ribs every now and again, is practically indestructible.

Pickle ad Issac do the thing where they slowly hold hands while sitting or working together.

Perfect(Kaysons listener) has a photo of them and Kayson as a photo in their room.

Elias used to skate.

Casper is 1 year older then Charlie.

Rookie leaves notes for Auron with a granola bar or water, or sometimes coffee.

Sunflower has a pet spider. And I will die on that hill.

Angel likes to crawl on Lucien’s shoulders, and play with his horns randomly.

Desmond ASMR

Baroness wears jewels constantly, and anytime when she looses them Castin will IMMEDIATELY without fail just buy her new ones rather then try and find it.

Rhett and the queen dance with each other in their courtyard on special occasions.

Cupcake had a pet rat, that died due to getting into chemical(she cried for days).

It’s already stated that VP tends to copy women who are wealthy so I imagine that she sometimes has outfits that parallel or are based on the Baroness’ outfits.

Tigeress can drink like a mf(since she’s a pirate duh) and has won each and every drinking game she has participated in.

Merman still on the brain, and of course Pirate Rhett!

Watcher (and why nothing matters anymore):

So, in case you've been locked away under a proverbial bridge for a few days, Internet personalities Steven Lim, Ryan Bergara, and Shane Madej (known as Watcher) have elected to begin their own streaming service and ditch YouTube.

On the surface, that mightn't even seem like news at all.

After all, this sort of thing seems to happen all the time: The Try Guys left Buzzfeed to create their own company, Rhett and Link took the dive and diversified into paywalled entertainment a few years back with Mythical Society. Both of which however still rely on YouTube itself to generate views on the main channels, which funnel viewers into a FOMO type situation where "you can't miss" a special airing on the app (Mythical Society) or Patreon (Try Guys).

Watcher, in its infinite wisdom (stupidity, carelessness, unparalleled greed - take your pick) has decided that YouTube is pointless, and has moved ALL their content behind a paywall, claiming that the service was amping up to provide "TV quality programming", leaving only old content and the first episodes of the new shows up on their YouTube page as a subtle tease as to what you could get for $6/month.

It's now quite apparent from reading the comments section of their (now infamous) YouTube video, their official subreddit, and the tag on X that the fans were...not thrilled. The fingers began to be pointed within minutes. Name calling soon after. Then this blossomed into dissertations on why this was a horrible idea.

Then we found out that there was no app. Just a website. So you're paying for website access. Not a full blown streaming service to rival Netflix. Oh, and they don't even have their own servers, the videos are hosted by Vimeo. The deeper the comments section dug, the nastier the attacks got. Steven soon became the whipping boy. His past, his interviews, scanned and mercurially dug up for juicy tidbits (although all anyone gleaned from these was he's rich, was born rich, drives a Tesla in LA, likes fancy food, and has friends whom he values who are racist and possibly sexist and will not sever ties with them).

Then came the cries of incongruity. Shane Madej repeatedly said to "Eat the Rich", and here he was schilling for a platform that cost $6 a month. The cries began to pirate all of the new Watcher content because maybe he was under duress and was secretly telling them to do so. Fact is, I don't know if he was or what, but I'm certain he's under contract and wants his job.

Then came the videos from other internet users analyzing the video, and comparing this to the Try Guys situation with Ned a few months back. Both are disasters, each in unique ways with different players, and such like but here's the vast difference: none of this will even matter in a month.

Let me explain: We are in the total free fall stage of Watcher's Internet Streamer Service. What they do in the next 24-48 hours is crucial. If they revert back to their YouTube channel and apologize, they'll be fine. People will probably poke fun at them, but they'll be forgiven, eventually. But if they don't and they keep on, ignoring the fans, dousing the haters, and make it a month, I doubt we will see any resistance outside of a terse article or two.

Why? The collective memory span in this day and age is extremely short, many have likely already made judgment in their head and have passed said judgment. Therefore, they'll avoid the channel, and the streamer and will be blissfully unaware of any changes. Those who have joined up and paid will remain members, and those who have elected to remain subscribed will likely remain so and will watch the free content until they can afford the $6/month.

The thing is like it or hate it, if they decide to do nothing and ignore the public at large, they most likely will be fine. Maybe they will not have the hugest subscriber base, but people will forget about this. Something else major that is more salacious will spring up in the months ahead. Will there be lingering anger? Sure, but like I said before, these people have already passed judgment so they're already gone.

In an era of "nothing fucking matters" when your choices are sometimes entirely out of your direct control and are (at best) two sides of the same coin, it should be of absolutely no surprise to anyone that there is a fairly good possibility even after all that has transpired that nothing bad will happen. Lest we forget that old adage: "there is no such thing as bad PR".

Personally, I feel $6 is a tad much for a non-app based web streamer with little to no content. It was disingenuous to announce its launch internationally where even more people can't afford it, and some can't even view it. Steven wasn't upfront with who was in charge and now it really does seem like he's using the subscriptions to fund his international gallivanting. It's clear nobody wanted TV-show quality Ghost Files to take place in another country, nor did they want an old show revived with votes when you pay the first month's dues. They say it's a case of Watcher "not reading the room".

== Love Notes ==

Hey there Lovelies. I'm behind again, what's new? Life is hard sometimes and no matter how much we want to be able to be caught up with what we need to, it just doesn't always work out the way we plan. Society has told us for so long we have to be perfect. Society tells us there's no room for error. But you know what? Life is messy. I don't know what each and every one of you deals with in a day-- and vice versa. Life is complicated, and busy, and best laid plans barely ever go the way they should. Add children, or pets, or family into the mix and it's even messier.

I appreciate all your patience with me, and for all your patience with all the other things in your life that don't always go to plan. It's frustrating at times, but I know eventually things will slow down and look up, and I hope all that happens for you sooner rather than later. Life is messy, but wonderful regardless. I hope it treats you well this week, lovelies. Sending hugs <3

I'm so lucky that I just have this doodle of my redesign for an older version of Rhett (he's 18)

Although they asked me to do the pirates from the 3rd movie, I just haven't started yet

The End of the Gentleman Pirate - Stede Bonnet

For the best part of the year 1717, Stede Bonnet, dubbed The Gentleman Pirate, had operated alongside Blackbeard. Eventually, though, Blackbeard double- crossed him, and sailed off with the plunder. Bonnet then hunted alone, and in the late summer of 1718 he entered the Cape Fear River to repair his sloop, the Royal James.

The surrender of Bonnet (x)

Around that time two pirate- hunting sloops under the command of Colonel William Rhett left Charleston, South Carolina. On the evening of 26 September the Henry and the Sea Nymph approached the mouth of the Cape Fear River, where they spotted Bonnet's sloop. It was already growing dark, so they blockaded the river, and prepared for a battle the next morning.

A 1733 map of Charleston by Herman Moll (x) 

Bonnet was outnumbered, so his big hope was to surprise the enemy, race past them with guns blazing, and head for the open sea. However, just as the Royal James came within range of the two pirate hunter she ran hard aground on a sandbank. Then, when the Henry and the Sea Nymph moved in for the kill, they both ran aground as well. All three ships were stranded within musket range of each other, exchanging fire while waiting for the tide to come in. This strange battle lasted for five hours, but it was the Henry which was the first to float free. With her guns threatening to sweep the decks of the Royal James, Bonnet had little choice but to surrender.

The tryals of Major Stede Bonnet and other pirates viz. Printed for Benj. Cowse ..., 1719 (x)

He was then taken to Charleston, pleaded not guilty, claiming his men had forced him to act as a pirate against his will 13 times but Bonnet was hanged along with 29 men.
