OUR FLAG MEANS DEATH  |  2.08

On Stede's Wardrobe and the Use of the Colour Blue

I've spent weeks fascinated by stede's wardrobe in our flag means death, constantly trying to work out the significance behind the use of certain colours in particular scenes and what they mean for both his emotional state and his character arc. I think there's definitely something to be said about how stede uses colour to convey to us something about his psyche, since we know for a fact he uses his clothing both as a means of expressing himself and as a defense mechanism. but out of all of the wonderful little details in his many outfits throughout the show, nothing interests me more than his use of the colour blue.

Stede (in tears, gazing majestically into the sunset): my family is Here now. at Sea

the family in question: i GUESS we can wait to kill him until the day After tomorrow 🙄🙄🙄

everything, everywhere all at once being a story about undiagnosed adhd- about the infinite capacity and potential you and everyone around you knows you have but are unable to fulfill and the unending shame and frustration and confusion that comes with it, about the power within that chaos of infinite possibility because when everything is possible nothing is but also, also, when everything is possible anything is. There is pain in the everything but there is hope too and beauty and care-

Sometimes I hyperfocus so hard on something, I forget I’m a person until someone interacts with me. I feel like some wild animal seeing a human being for the first time. I’m like “oh yeah I’m supposed to speak and stuff”

Say you break your ankle. You could know everything there is to know intellectually about the injury. Even with this vast knowledge, you will still experience physical pain.

Now take this logic and apply it to things like ADHD, autism, clinical depression, and other less visible/divergent disabilities. You cannot think your way out of feeling.

That is to say: you are not a bad, lazy, or selfish person for struggling, even if you know why you are struggling.

You know what I hate about ADHD? It's how I can intuitively sense when something or someone is wrong or off but I can't string together reasonable enough words to explain my intuition. And what comes out is half-understandable gibberish that can be easily refuted, even if I am right and proven right later on.

You just “know.”

It’s a difficult thing to describe.
