In your own space, recommend a fannish or creative resource.
I bookmarked a tonne of stuff while writing my pirate AU last year. In no particular order:
Online Etymology Dictionary -- I found this invaluable because it tells you when a word came into use! I had to remove so many words during editing!
Fantasy Guide: Horses, Steeds and Mounts -- also useful when you need your pirate to ride a horse for whatever reason!
The Game is Afloat: Part One and The Game is Afloat: Part Two -- I think this is actually some sort of D&D guide, but it was helpful information for my pirate ship.
Common Sword Types -- also helpful for a sword-wielding pirate.
A Pirate's Glossary of Terms -- I'm not even sure I used any of these words, but it was a fun read.

Like where did that term even come from?
