Save Hannibal Initiative: Black Lives Matter, Rewatch With Bryan, Fannibal Pride and MORE!

There's a lot happening in the Fannibal community and in the world, let's make our best possible world together.

My Deerest Fannibals,   Firstly, I wanted to send you ALL OF MY LOVE, whoever you are, wherever you are, you probably need love right now, if any of you need anything, or to talk, or a hug, or a cheer, please get in touch, I love you all DEERLY.    From a Hannibal perspective, THINGS ARE HAPPENING, and it's a very exciting time!!! From MANY celebrations of Hannibal FINALLY COMING TO NETFLIX, to Fannibal Pride, to a surge of new Fannibals, and more, this month and the ones to come are looking not only busy, BUT HOPEFUL!!!! (A true feeling of the teacup coming back together again!!!)   That said, the world, and especially the US, is in an intense place. As an engaged fandom, it is our duty to use our powers and organization not just to help fight for our show, but to help fight for what's right. After all, equality and justice are the most delicious course around. It would be very rude not to put our power to good use! So please, as we focus on making a place for Season 4, not just in our memory palaces, but in reality, take a minute to manifest other parts of our best possible world.    LOTS OF LOVE,    Ro   Bonus Fun Posts: Hannibal Lecter Advice and Dancing Hannigram!!!! <3    Black Lives Matter The Nerdist's Hannibal Rewatch, WITH BRYAN, MARTHA, LORETTA, JANICE (AND POSSIBLY MORE): 6/6, 3pm ET/12 pm PT, #NerdistAtHome #FannibalsDineWithNetflix #DiningWithNetflix Rewatch, ALL OF JUNE!!!!! 6/6 (DIRECTLY AFTER NERDIST), 6/7, 6/13, 6/14, 6/20, 6/21, #AnotherCourse4Hannibal Trend Days, 6/27-28!!!!!

Currently, throughout the United States and other countries, there are many outcries over injustices that have too long been a normalized part of our society.    Please take the time to support these movements, whether by signing petitions, making donations, or joining the protests yourselves. Please be safe, but do not be quiet about what is right. If you have the privilege, use it to uplift and protect those who do not. There is no peace and happiness until we can all sit equally, safely, and happily at the table together.    Use the tag #BlackLivesMatter, but please go beyond just social posting where at all possible. And remember if you are privileged in this fight, take the time to uplift the voices and experiences of black posters.    A ton of resources can be found here. Highlighting some of them below!    Donations:   Bail Funds (plus one more not in the thread) Black Visions Collective; Twitter: BlackVisionsMN Reclaim The Block; Twitter: ReclaimTheBlock North Star Health Collective George Floyd Fund   (The MNFreedomFund has said they have received enough donations and have asked people to donate to other organizations, but I am noting them here.)   Petitions can be found here. Although the efficacy of White House Petitions is questionable, undoubtedly the more noise the better. Some can be found here and here.    Protest Safety:   Tear Gas Tips X Overall Attire    If anyone has other resources to share, please send them my way and I will send another blast.

The reasons are probably endless, but let's all share our love using the #WhyILoveHannibal tag!!! As new viewers see Hannibal on Netflix, let's give them a real reason to tune in… and it's a great time to get the message out to all your followers and friends!!!    SHARE WHY YOU LOVE HANNIBAL ON ALL OF YOUR SOCIAL CHANNELS, USE THE TAG, AND LET'S REEL IN SOME NEW FANNIBALS!!! <3    #AllHannibalAllTheTime!!!! (Watch Hannibal and watch it again, and play it when you don't watch)   To remind yourself why you love Hannibal AND to get Hannibal into the Top Shows Of the Day ranking, here's a reminder to stream All Hannibal ALL THE TIME, on whatever streaming channel is available to you!!!   Stream Hannibal while you work, stream Hannibal on mute while you sleep, stream Hannibal during breaks, basically make your life HANNIBAL, HANNIBAL, HANNIBAL, and give Netflix a taste of Fannibal love.   MAKE SURE TO REQUEST HANNIBAL S4 ON NETFLIX!!!   One last note of the Netflix flavored variety...MAKE SURE YOU ARE REQUESTING "Hannibal Season 4 (Netflix Original), through Netflix's official 'Title Request'' page!!! (Which Fannibals, may or may not have influenced into existence!!!!)   It's a great means of influence!!!   FANNIBAL MASKS!!!!! <3    To not wear a mask in public, given our current climate, is to be unspeakably rude. But Hanniibal would tell you, being polite doesn't have to boring!!! Redbubble now makes masks, which means, a ton of your favorite Fannibal artists make masks.    In sum, you can: Support Fannibal Artists + Keep The World Safe + Rock AN AMAZING PIECE OF ART ON YOUR FACE… THAT IS WHAT WE CALL LIVING IN THE BEST POSSIBLE WORLD!!!!    Here are just a few options!!!    Support Your Fannibal Artists!!! (+ Comment Madslib for the shy)   Speaking of Fannibal Artists, IT IS A GREAT TIME TO SUPPORT ALL OF THEM!!! (artists, writers, knitters, candle-makers, ALL OF THEM!!!)    The current state of affairs has hurt many creatives trying to make ends meet, be it by halting their full time or extra income professions!!! SO THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY FROM FANNIBAL CREATOR SHOPS, COMMISSION THEM, DONATE TO THEIR KO-FIS AND SHARE THE LOVE!!!! Even a comment or a share can really go a long way!!!!!! Bonus, if you do buy, the walls of your memory palace will never have looked better!!!!    Here are some artist compilations (and you might even find some awesome masks, to boot):   Fanniconomy Sheet Fannibal Promo Thread Fannibal Art Directory Fannibal Gallery Tag Fannibal Artists Masterpost  Ongoing Thread Here   If you feel too shy to comment on someone's fic, here's a nice Madslib template you can use to make their day:    Hi NAME OF AUTHOR, I just wanted to let you know I finished your fic and it was amazing! Thank you so much for taking the time to write and share it.

You can even share your dream brunch if you don't feel like cooking!!!    CAN'T WAIT TO SEEEE YOU AT BRUNCH!!!!    Fannibal Walks and Windows!!!!    It's a tricky time to get outside right now, so Fannibals want to widen their horizons by sharing with one another!!!
