Calla and Cora went to the park by themselves for the first time and they were excited to play on all the toys!

another meaningful contribution i make to black sails analysis

Ik the internet has collectively decided liking Hamilton is cringe bc ppl were writing real person fic, making founding father self inserts, and because anything that gets a big enough following must be mercilessly shunned after 6-12 months but like, I got surprise tickets to a matinee today as a bday gift and it really IS that good?

Like. I'm not USamerican. I'm not sitting here like "oh yes this is absolutely historically accurate and this is how everything went down and how these ppl were irl". Its a story. A historical adaptation. But it's a Damn Good Story. It's thematically compelling. It's emotionally resonant. It's about hunger and imagining death and ambition, about that desperation that drives you towards elusive satisfaction, about legacy and memory and the construction and telling of narratives, it's about UNEARNED GRACE and impossible forgiveness.

Like it really IS a good story, and as someone who only know these people as /characters/ and not historical figures, they're compelling characters? Their arcs are interesting? Hamilton and Burr as foils is so good? Washington as a model of leadership and of regret? Of legacy earned and unearned? ELIZA??MY EVERYTHING?? She's not a "main" character but the narrative hinges on her, when Hamilton is stripped bare of his ambition he thinks of her. She controls and saves the narrative, ultimately. It comes down to Eliza as the centre of it all, best of wives and best of women truly.

The music is a bop, the choreography fun, the set design simple but effective. Like? I get things that have a massive teen fandom can be annoying, and taking it as Historical Fact would be stupid. But as a story???? It really is that good?

Also we had an understudy as Hamilton and he was v young with such a soft higher voice and it REALLY worked esp in act 1 with the whole young scrappy hungry thing. He was also shorter than Eliza which imo. Perfect. Tiny man among a cast of largely very tall men and a few very tall women.

about leaving a legacy

beyond the halls: an insider's guide to loving museums - mackenzie finklea // fahrenheit 451 - ray bradbury // drink with me - les misérables // the world was wide enough - hamilton: an american musical // they both die at the end - adam silvera // long live - taylor swift

Remember how last year we all were saying Christian was the dad who stepped up for Max and appreciated him the way he deserved…

Yeah we were wrong about that, apparently.

Why do you hate Alexander Hamilton so much? The guy lived and died before you were even born dude. He isn’t going to come alive and bite you XD

No, his actions just persist in the policies that my home nation was founded upon.

HOW QUICK DOES SHE WRITE???

first of all, his role with the team will go on for a longer period, even when he decides not to drive anymore. i can't see him driving for another team and he's gonna be always this iconic racing driver and personality outside. so, i very much hope that our careers and our journey continues beyond the racing. but in terms of the age you see athletes now pushing those boundaries. we have much more scientific understanding how to live our lives & improve in performances. Tom brady is always a good example... and with fernando, you see, his anger still drives him. so yea, with lewis we can go a long way - toto wolff

(slams hands on desk) "WHO LIVES WHO DIES WHO TELLS YOUR STORY" FROM HAMILTON IS MALON SINGING ABOUT TIME AFTER HE GETS HERO'S SHADE-ED THANK YOU GOOD NIGHT

okay so it’s a well established fact that old italian men love ferrari. right so imagine having to explain a singular lewis hamilton instagram story to ur italian grandfather.

Beth paid a visit to the other Hamilton household - to invite them for the party and spend some time. Just before leaving, she turned to her younger brother: "Bruno, you need to date someone!" He mumbled and failed to find a good comeback. She went on: "My precious younger brother... you need to meet... wait... are you seeing someone now?" "Are you seeing someone, Bethseda? I don't see a boyfriend anywhere." "Men are trash. Just look at Joshua. But you are exception, so don't lock yourself from the world! Go to the party! And take a date with you!"

someone just asked me the definition of legacy

they actually phrased it “what is a legacy” and i just lost it

i said it’s planting seeds in a garden you never get to see AMERICA you great unfinished symphony you sent for me

she still doesn’t know what a legacy is but i had my fun

Oh no, I think I have a type.

Helpful quiet type that goes evil in the third season.

I guide them past the pretty waterfalls, and we continue walking until we reach a dead end where there’s nothing but a dark cave. Dray looks it up on his phone, reads about what’s inside, and insists on exploring it. But as I stand there staring into the darkness, thinking about the bats, snakes, and every other creepy thing that might be in there, I realize one fundamental truth - I’m not going in.

They beg me to join them, but once they realize I’m not about to step one foot into that cave - Mase and Dray go in alone.

I LOVE MY DEER MORE THAN ANYTHING IN THIS LIFE. I WOULD CHOOSE HIS HAPPINESS OVER MINE EVERY TIME. RIMEEEEEEEEEEEE
