Dominic and several of our other cast members live in California so a lot of folks are being affected by the fires. I'll try to post what I can about safety/news but for now, looks like Dominic and family are prepared.

📝 Aotearoa Treaty Principles Bill Submissions

Now, I generally try to keep "politics" out of the recaps because this is meant to be a positive space for the fans - but I do know that A LOT of our cast and crew are affected by this bill personally so I do want to throw this in there.

It looks like you don't actually have to be a resident of Aotearoa to submit your feelings on the bill.

Here is helpful linktree with things you can say and how to submit that I tracked down via a post Rachel House reposted: https://linktr.ee/nzhumanrights

💌 Love Notes, Part 1

(Originally posted on Jan 8)

Hey Lovelies, I know 01/09/25 is going to be a very mixed feeling kind of day for everyone. It's the anniversary of the first time S2 was cancelled. It's going to bring up a lot of sad feelings, and you should absolutely sit with those feelings and embrace them. It was a rough time for all of us. There's no shame in feeling that grief again.

I know I didn't show it much, but I cried so many times. Seriously, like SO MANY TIMES. My parents asked me if someone whacked me in the face with a shovel (which, thanks folks, I feel so pretty) but it was true - I was devastated. It was a slow burn for me too because I wanted so very much to keep up hope. Seeing you all really push for the show helped keep me going - and helped me learn more about how to cope with that kind of grief (and it was grief for so many of us because the show meant so very much - and changed some of us at our core).

No matter how tomorrow makes you feel though, I do want to remind you what came of it. This beautiful community rallied together and did some absolutely AMAZING things this past year (I wish I hadn't been sick this past two weeks cause I wanted to get you some stats).

From billboards, to faxing, and calling in to Max, and Netflix, and Amazon, and Apple TV, to raising a SHIT TON of money for SO MANY charities - to making beautiful works of art and fiction - to making our cast and crew (not just the actors) feel loved and impactful - this cancellation brought SO MANY OF US TOGETHER.

People stepped out of their comfort zones - talked to people they didn't know, reached out to streaming platforms and learned to use their voices in ways they'd never done before.

We all built our own little communities within the fandom, bit by bit - and those little communities have spread so much love, and kindness, and made life worth living for so many of us.

💌 Love Notes, Part 2

(Originally posted on Jan 8)

It's been almost a year for my recaps too - those officially started on Jan 13th (https://ofmd-renewal-repo.knowledgeowl.com/help/01132024-daily-ofmd-recap), once again, because of the cancellation, and because of the camaraderie of the crew and all the support we all gave each other.

Jan 9 is probably a tough day for most of us, but it's also the catalyst for so many wonderful things, and I'm so very grateful for it in a way. I've gotten to know so many of you, gotten to experience your joy, and participate in your struggles, and vice versa. I've met so many people from all over the world I'd never have once dreamt I could meet - and I know SO MANY of you have too.

This fandom is one of a kind - and this special show and it's cancellation brought us together. I am still in full clown mode at all times, and I believe S3 is an inevitability, it's just a matter of when - but no matter when it happens, I'm grateful we got this past year together, and all that came with it. So thank you lovelies. Thank you for being a huge part of my life, and turning it in a much better direction I could ever have thought possible given where I was.

Lean on each other tomorrow, okay? We got through this past year together, and we'll get through whaesources tever happens going forward, as a crew.

Take care of yourself lovelies, drink some water, and get some sleep. Love you <3

ℹ️ Resources

Outside of the fandom in my day job, I work for a company that works with 211's and non profits, and so resources are really important to me. I have a lot I'm aware of, but if anyone has more they'd like to share around, please let me know! I'm happy to spread the word to help people get support they need right now!

For those of you in California or who know some folks who are - please be sure to download the Watch Duty App, it keeps track and notifies you of nearby fires in real time: https://app.watchduty.org

In addition here's some additional info on go bags if you are in the evacuation areas:

Go bags should contain the following:
• A 3-day supply of non-perishable food & 3 gallons of water per person
• A map with at least 2 evacuation routes
• Necessary prescriptions or medications
• A change of clothes & extra eyeglasses/contact lenses
• Extra car keys, credit cards, cash, or traveler's checks
• A first aid kit & sanitation supplies
• A flashlight & battery-powered radio with extra batteries

Firefighters created a phonetic list, dubbed the 6 P's of Evacuation, to remember everything that should go with you and your emergency kit:
• People, pets and papers
• phone numbers & important documents
• Prescriptions, vitamins & eyeglasses
• Pictures & irreplaceable memorabilia
• Personal computer, hard drive & disks
• 'Plastic' (credit cards, ATM cards) & cash

Cal Fire also said that food and water can be put in a cooler or tub with wheels to make it.

Also looks like Airbnb will be pairing up with LA 211 to offer shelter for those evacuated from the Palisades fire. You can visit https://www.211la.org for more information.

As I hear more resources I'll try to share more in the recaps/on socials. I hope you all are staying safe out there!
