just spent the last 6 hours reading every OFMD S2 review I can find and distilling that info into plot/character/episode highlights. I’ll probably format it better after I get some sleep but enjoy!
& here are all the quotes that I pulled from:

I haven't seen that many people talk about this but I just wanted to point this out: they have Chinese pirates in the second season of ofmd!!! I'm really happy that the show runners have added this to the show, because most mainstream depictions of pirates are just white European men; the shows skip over the whole entire era of Chinese piracy in the 18th and 19th centuries.

I'm so excited to see what the show has in store for the new character Susan!! She looks soooo cool

A quote from the vanity fair article, this sounds so awesome! Ofmd is already great with representation and now with Chinese pirates playing a part in the second season, it adds even more to it!!

I remember seeing this quote about Susan Sontag, after she wrote Notes On Camp (tone marker: one of the most famous queer treatises in history) when everyone was speculating, wait what the fuck is Susan Sontag a leSBiAn ? Is she BiSExuAL ? (Tone marker: Da VInkY?) Is she allowed write about this?? And I forget who said it but there's this quote that's like, "Does the author of Notes On Camp even need to come out?"
Like, the book was so obviously queer, so obviously and intentionally centred the interests and wellbeing and knowledge of the queer community, that like 1) it couldn't not betray her queerness (which ofc it turned out she was in private) and 2) it didn't matter because her personal identity was irrelevant to the heavy lifting her writing was doing. Like if the work is queer, like deeply textually and subtextually queer, intentionally queer, and it's having a positive impact on the queer community, then that work is queer regardless of who made it and how publically queer they are or are not.
(And also ftr being openly queer is not a guarantee of your work being actually meaningfully queer, either. We know this because Pete Buttigieg exists.)
Anywas I think about that quote literally all the time. Like with Con O'Neil before he came out, or Taika Waiti. Occasionally people will jump all over some minutiae some celebrity said in an interview and pick apart how publically gay you have to be to say x or y, and it's homophobic to say z unless you're gay, or we're gonna willfully misinterpret everything you say. Or whatever. But what about when we're talking about people who have been hiring queer people, creating queer stories, for in some cases decades?
Like Con O'Neil has been playing beautiful well rounded queer people since before a lot of y'all were born. And did he ofc ultimately come out, yeah. But did he have to? What did it change, really? Does the actor who originated Izzy Hands and Val Uncle and Michael Scarborough Ahoy! have to come out? Does a producer and star of Our Flag Means Death have to come out? Why does the author of Notes On Camp need to come out? And for whose benefit?
Like ok listen at some point idk if you're on the lease at gay house but you've been sleeping on the couch long enough that you do just live here now. It just seems plain rude not to let you get your mail delivered.

ngl yall, not to drag Stede's voice acting abilities down or anything, but I'd listen to Zheng's silky smooth voice tell me Pinnochio's story 300 hundred times over nonstop 5ever and ever until i wilted away like a dead flower and perished. if she narrated a fucking dictonary i think i'd just evaporate immediately. if I was a pirate and she raided my ship I'd beg for her to throw me in the dungeons just so i could sneak away like a rat and hear her say stuff. I need to hear her say "bumfluzzed".

Ed having to lose Izzy to properly shed the “Blackbeard” persona because it was them and there was no one without the other. It’s amazing writing, especially paralleled with what Auntie said to Oluwande about her influence over Zheng

What kind of janky ass soup is Susan selling on the Republic of Pirates that Stede and the crew think the soup on the Red Flag is so amazing…..
