Rest in power, Andre Braugher (1962-2023)

Captain Holt is easily one of the best characters on Brooklyn 99. Despite butting heads with Peralta and having a strict demeanor at times, he’s a big softie who made the whole precinct better. He was there for Rosa as she went on the journey of accepting her sexuality. He’s an incredible character who has a wonderful story arc. It’s not often you see a character (especially one that’s not white) that’s open and comfortable with their sexuality in a position of power.

Rest in peace Andre Braugher 🥺❤️

In my photographic work, I seek to create new visual experiences through a poetic investigative approach to the surroundings. This, in combination with the timeless and dreamy atmosphere of analog photography and especially the historical photography from the beginning of the history of photography as well as light, space, time, and memory are inspirations and fascinations to me in my photographic work. My approach is associative and intuitive. I often write or draw as part of my work process. I think that, in a way, I draw or write my way into what the work is about. When I pick up the camera, it is not always clear to me what I am doing, conceptual wise, or how it might be connected to the “warming up” with the writing or drawing. But as the process progress things emerge to me along the way (both like synchronicities, like meaningful findings or as epiphanies), and often as realizations in the end of the process. Recently, in my work, I have turned back to photographs that I have taken many years ago and to making new darkroom prints of them incorporating mistakes in the development process, giving them too much light and too little time in the chemistry. The work is about light and memory, and how photographs can work as a sensory memory generator.

Just finished up the new episodes of ofmd and I'm not the only one who desperately needs the Archie/Jim/Oluwande/Zheng situation to evolve into a polycule, right?

An intro to the historical Zheng Yi Sao

Ruibo Qian's character in Our Flag Means Death is based on a real person, though like all its real pirates, she is a loose interpretation. In particular, the real Zheng Yi Sao wasn't born until 57 years after the real Blackbeard died!

In real life, she lived from 1775 to 1844. She was known by a variety of names; her birth name is usually given as Shi Yang. Zheng Yi Sao is the name most often used, which literally means "the wife of Zheng Yi" (more on him later), and you may also see variations like Ching Shih or Madam Cheng, depending on transliteration. Calling her Zheng, as Oluwande does, is good, or ZYS in fandom chat, but if fic writers crave a more personal connotation for a scene, Yang is a good choice for a given name consistent with the real woman. It's like the difference between Mr. Buttons and Nathaniel.

She was born in the Guangdong province, and many bios of her claim she worked on one of the boat brothels there, but this is speculation only.

When she married Zheng Yi, he was a successful member of a pirating dynasty, working as a privateer for emperors of Vietnam. The couple collaborated to unite six different pirate fleets operating off the Guangdong coast into a confederation, sealed with an agreement signed by the captains of each. Zheng Yi was informally recognized as the overall leader of the confederation until his death in a storm two years after the signing.

Zheng Yi Sao had the respect of other key figures in the alliance, and her smooth assumption of leadership was followed by a period of huge success and expansion for the pirate confederation, driving the Chinese government to desperation. This is where her reputation as a pirate "queen" comes from in real life, though I'm excited to see where the show goes with her fictional conquest of China!

In 1810, Zheng Yi Sao recognized that the confederation faced internal fractures and additional opposition, as Portuguese and British military forces allied with Chinese ships, so she led the confederation to bow out on a high, and use their immense power to bargain for a peaceful retirement, surrendering ships and weapons for pardons, supplies, and money. Although it's fictional that her crew was predominantly women, when Zheng Yi Sao surrendered, she did so accompanied by a delegation wholly composed of women and children who belonged to the confederation. At that time, the confederation consisted of 226 ships, 24 of which personally reported to Zheng Yi Sao.

If you're doing the math, she was only in her mid-thirties, and was far from done with life. She remarried, to one of her former captains, Zhang Bao, and accompanied him to the Penghu Islands, where he commanded a garrison. After his death, she returned to Guangdong and had another career of twenty-odd years, becoming the owner of a casino until her death at age 68 or 69 (nice).

She was one of the most successful pirates in history, both because of her power and her ability to survive it. I think she's neat as hell, and so have a lot of fiction writers! You might have encountered versions of her, or characters inspired by her, before, in things like Pirates of the Caribbean, the Bloody Jack novels, Assassin's Creed, and Doctor Who. It's fun to see a form of her in this! We can expect her arc to progress differently, but I hope having some context will help.

The most helpful things to note for the rest of the season for ofmd fans will be that Zheng is her surname, she wasn't really a contemporary of the other historical figures, and that her connection to sex work should not be treated as a fact, whether you want to include it in this fictional interpretation or not.

I have not been the same since Zheng Yi Sao became a character in our flag means death. It means so much to me that pirate-related media is representing her more because I never would have known about her and she is too cool to be forgotten.

For years pop culture either portrayed her as the racist "submissive asian woman" stereotype or ignored her completely. It's infuriating. Now though we have a strong portrayal of her in both doctor who and our flag means death!! Let me tell you a few things about the rightfully named "Pirate queen".

On average, most pirates died 2 years after starting piracy. Edward Teach died after two years, Stede Bonnet died after one and Israel Hands impressively died around 8 years after starting, all executed. Our pirate queen died at 68 after a successful 9 year career. In fact, she only stopped because she was made to surrender and lived the rest of her years in effective retirement.

She inherited her late husbands pirate fleets and commanded around 1,800 ships. Blackbeard is believed to have a maximum of 5- likely because he didn't get along with people well enough to amass enough crews to run them. She had the largest fleet in history.

Zheng Yi Sao was a leader and undoubtedly one of the most successful pirates ever and yet we dare to forget her.

zheng really was like i can't have straight men on this ship you lot are ok tho

Last two episodes of Fionna and Cake dropped today on Max. Please check them out! I wish the series had been longer. It was an absolute joy and dream come true to have had a part in this series. I hope everyone enjoyed 🥰

Here is my episode 7 color script.

Supervising Producer @sandrajiun

Art Direction: @oxfruit

Random things I wanna see in the next season of OFMD:

I want to see Izzy having fever dreams abt Stede. Gimme that repressed gay attraction pls. Bonus points if Stede duels Izzy in his dreams and sliced his shirt up like the second episode. Setup and payoff babyyy

Ed needs to have like three crying scenes over his breakup. Bbgirl needs to be properly traumatized.

Speaking of Ed, if we don’t get a full scene of him role playing with his dolls, with voices and everything, I will be supremely upset.

I want Lucius to be alive and on the ship and Ed knows abt it and he actually finds Lucius one day and forces him to write more sad poetry.

Can we please get a scene where someone’s hair gets braided? I don’t care who it is I just need to see that

Last but not least I need Black Pete to have even more lines. I want him being ridiculous and in love with Lucius. I want him to be a bigger part. He’s one of my favorite characters so far and I dearly love him

I desperately need for "Cheers" to be the episode where Simon comes back to Ooo and finds the place a wreck because Marcy went to visit Simon at work and found a dead? Choose Goose, an altar to GOLB, and no Simon. She panics.

In true supportive GF fashion, Bubblegum activates DefCon 4. Everyone is interrogated - from the dog visitor to Dirt Beer Guy to Astrid who explains that Fionna and Cake was here. Fucking wizards are brought in because if GOLB is involved then shit could get real bad. King Man is there. Marcy makes a collect call to Hunson in case he knows how to get to GOLB.

Literally all hands on deck. Bubblegum is already lowkey preparing for an apocalypse and/or setting up funeral arrangements because if Simon went to GOLB, there's a good chance that he's not coming back. And if he does come back, there's a good chance that GOLB is with him. Neither are good endings.

Marcy is inconsolable. King Man has yet to leave, possibly eating popcorn. Finn feels guilty because he was so sure that Simon was okay. In a fit of panic, Marcy blames Finn for not telling her about this earlier. Huntress is de-escalating that situation.

And Simon... walks into the Candy Castle with a T-Shirt that says "I saw GOLB and LIVED" or some other tacky slogan. And it's the Community Pizza scene
