More BTS from Samba's Advanced Chemistry Movie! Thank you as always to the writer, Alec Moore for sharing them! I realize they don't have Samba in them persay, but I thought they were pretty cool-- and Alec is a huge fan and support of OFMD! If you have seen the film and haven't reviewed it yet on amazon, please do! I know they are still looking for reviews here!

"When I saw the @advancedchemmov.bsky.social art department's collection of props that they brought to life from my crazy imagination, I literally teared up. And then Samba-- literally teared up for a scene. The difference is he was acting. "

Our sweetheart writer, Alex Sherman, is campaigning for a really amazing cause. He's created a fundraiser to help sponsor a free 1 week camp for kids who've lost a parent, sibling or caregiver.

== Love Notes ==

Hey lovelies. Coming up soon is the Republic of Pirates coverage! I hope the weekend treated you kindly-- whether you were at the con or not! I also wanted to send some love and remind you that you really are doing your best. The world doesn't always fit perfectly for folks, especially queer and ND folks. That doesn't mean you don't fit in it, it just means you're making your own section for others like you to fit together. We can get through just about anything if we support each other. Remember to lean on those closest to you if you need it. You're beautiful and worth it. I found these love notes from HopeHealingArts that I really loved so I thought I'd share them your way. Please take care of yourselves lovelies, and if you need help, reach out ok? <3

Tonight's theme is fingers. These fabulous gifs brought to you by the magnificent @ofmd-ann and @a-man-for-hire-and-his-archives!

Hi all! I'm abby, aka @gentlebeardsbarngrill, I've decided to go ahead and move the OFMD Recaps to their own blog for the time being. I know some folks only follow me for recaps, and others for personal things, so I've decided to go ahead and separate the two so as to make it easier for people to access what they'd like.

@ofmdrecaps for tumblr

Bsky: https://bsky.app/profile/ofmdrecaps.bsky.social

Twitter: https://x.com/ofmdrecaps

Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OFMDDailyRecaps/

This blog is focused on posting about Recaps for OFMD /fandom news. Recaps consist of anything from Actor news, fan-led charity drives, news from fan-led groups, ofmd fan spotlights, voting opportunities for OFMD, and peripheral works of the actors. It will also contain gifs, love notes, etc. In general it will stay generally SFW but may dip into NSFW. I will try to tag/note it in the TLDR notes if that is the case. If you're behind on OFMD news, you can visit previous recaps here:
