Hey can we talk about that one little scene, throwaway shot in 1x8 where Silver, after firing on the warship, as everything is falling apart and Flint is about to go in the water, instead of hiding like a sane lil ratsnake is holding some dude’s throat together and calling for the doctor? Cause I’m just saying he is, almost despite himself, braver and more helpful than he is given credit for. He WANTS to think of himself as self interested and a pure survivalist but when push comes to shove, all other things being equal, he really doesn’t like seeing people die and will go out of his way to prevent it.

this is the plot of The Third Man, actually
the fact that i realized harry lime is named after calcium oxide/calcium carbonate because of a chemistry assignment is still hilarious to me… the film also finds it very funny and has him reference “limelight” (derived from calcium oxide) himself. my favorite detail, though, is his complaining about running out of tablets for his indigestion which were likely antacids made from calcium carbonate.

like. don’t get me wrong… i’m STILL showering regularly, but like… was anybody going to TELL me that my hair becoming unbearably greasy after one day of not showering wasn’t normal?? because i lived my entire life up to this point assuming that it was, and now suddenly i could probably not shower for a week (staying otherwise clean) and it would be just fine???? WHAT??????????

not saying this is what the song is “about,” but it is heavily relatable to me as someone dealing with a post-serious mental health issues brain that doesn’t know how to function under stress and reflexively turns to self-abuse.
Like. Yeah, I DO think that someone was mean to you when you were little and didn’t deserve it! But I am NOT that guy! Could you get that straight? STOP trying so hard to break my spirit! Allow me one or two small victories now and then!!!!!!!
oh pseudothyrum song we’re really in it now

So about 3 years ago, @starbuck did a guessing game for whose full name gets said most often in Black Sails. I submitted my guess, John Silver, but then suddenly I got a mini mental montage of a whole bunch of people saying 'Charles Vane' with different levels of annoyance, and I had to go back and change my guess.
Turns out Charles Vane is indeed the full name said most often, with a total of 57 times throughout the show.
2 years later I started making this and now, 3 years late here you go: A crackvid meets supercut of Charles Vane, set to You're So Vain by Carly Simon because I had to lol
The image links to a google drive video because the song is unfortunately copyrighted on youtube Actually mobile is being weird so link is also here
Also thanks to @asterofthevoid for suggesting the ending ;)
