I expect like many of you, I watched season 2 of Black Sails and went "wouldn't it be great if I could just watch the flashbacks". Well I bring to you - a 55-minute-long episode of just the flashback scenes from series 2 of Black Sails. The vibes are perfect even if my editing leaves something to be desired.
BLACK SAILS + Who We Are by Hozier (insp.)
I think that the most difficult thing is allowing yourself to be loved, so receiving the love and feeling like you deserve it is a pretty big struggle. I suppose that’s what I’ve learned recently, to allow myself to be loved. Happy 51st Birthday, Nicole Kidman! (June 20th, 1967)

Every so often I remember we’re likely going to get casting announcements for Gabrielle and Akasha within the next two months and I get so dizzy I have to sit down

How true their relationship was. An honest alliance and, as strange as it may feel to define it like this, a disinterested one.
Jack struggle to avenge Charles is really touching to me. Like...for people living like they lived, a loyalty (and a friendship) such as that really is the most precious treasure.

This aspect, at least for me, is definitely what did the magic. I mean, I don't think I'd be here talking about it if it hadn't included such an important theme (current for those times but still very current today too).
Probably is because I understand it personally , but also I think you don't necessarily have to experience something first hand in order to understand it and emphatize with it. So yes, I think there are also people foreign to this problem who can appreciate it.
Moreover, I heard also of a lot of people which are part of this problem on the other side, the one which causes it, that however enjoy very much the show, so I guess each one can find their own attractive aspect in it.
Just...don't know, maybe emphatize with it about this subject specifically makes the like for the show way more personal, in a way. But it's not necessarily the only way to like it.
I wonder what the cishet experience of Black Sails is like — or more accurately I suppose the experience of the show for people who have not known shame and who have not been made to feel like monsters, for one reason or another.
Because there is something so compelling to me about Flint's rage—and his ruthlessness. There is something so satisfying to the way he turns into a monster because that's what England tells him he is, and the way he lies and kills and believes in a better, different, impossible world and will stop at nothing to fight for it—even if the fight is doomed from the start. "This ends when England apologises to me," he says and all I can say in return is go off king.
I wonder what this show is like for the normies who never felt that rage—and that shame—burning under their skin and had to swallow it down.
