Fell down a rabbit hole of historical pirate flags made into Pride flags today and these were the result:

“Calico” Jack Rackham (also Anne Bonny & Mary Read) + Nonbinary

Edward “Blackbeard” Teach + Asexual

John Phillips + Transgender

Stede Bonnet + Genderqueer

Thomas Tew + Aromantic

John Avery + Bisexual

Christopher Moody + Pansexual

And the classic Jolly Roger + the Gilbert Baker Pride flag

A little out of the “color palette” for my page, but wanted to share the pic of me yesterday regardless. lol Yesterday while making my way around Charleston (Charles Town), I also stopped by Sullivan's Island. It was here that Captain Stede Bonnet, after escaping imprisonment in 1718, fled to and camped out for nearly two weeks with a spyglass affixed on the horizon waiting for Christopher Moody's ship. He was however re-captured, and Charles Town militia hid about the island in canoes assuming the pirate Moody and his crew would stop here for fresh water before assaulting Charles Town. He ended up doing neither. Off the coast of Sullivan's Island is also where the unnamed pirate/slaver from Madagascar anchored off the shore in 1685 due to being blown off course from a storm, leading to him introducing rice to the newly established Charles Towne as thanks for a place to stay while his ship underwent repairs.

Just finished editing and uploaded part 2 of my videos about Charles Towne SC and it’s interactions with pirates during the Golden Age of Piracy! Give it a watch! I’ll be making more videos soon, focusing on some more pirate mythology and with any luck may do some pirate board game reviews soon as well!
