     anyway it's pride month so you should watch Black Sails, and trust that it jettisons its early mistakes to commit fully to its true identity and become fucking excellent.

     WHICH IS ALSO RELEVANT SUBTEXT BY THE WAY

     Zethu Dlomo-Mphahlele got relatively little screen time but fucking hell did she make it count. I never even suspected someone could put so much into the word "multitudes" before then

     do not even get me started on the finale. Just in case it still hadn't hit home that this terrible conflict is fundamentally about assimiliation vs liberation, about personal vs political, about surviving to life a goddamn life vs giving everything up for the chance to make a better world. Fuuuck

     Completely ruined most other tv honestly

     typed out and then deleted that final conversation like 5 times because it's so. fucking. good. But also because hearing it at that time, after all that fucking struggle, is the way it deserves

     @HauntedOwlbear yayyy

     IT IS SO GOOD THOUGH

     and yes, it does make some mistakes early on, before it really had the confidence. Eleanor's first appearance is *excruciating* but it gets over it
