Founding Father Fandom: Hamilton

resistance is futile

i definitely did not get one nope def not >>;

 

I really need to make a design for an "Immigrants: We Get The Job Done" shirt.

 

The shipping for a shirt is nearly as much as much as the shirt costs.

....................._{I not throwing away my shot to buy it tho.}

 

i would wear the hell out of a shirt like that

i really want one that says bastard orphan immigrant too

 

I will buy this and wear it only while I live in Japan, and if I do end up moving to England after I graduate

 

this kills the man

 

pbs did a documentary, mix of background of the making of the show and the history: http://www.pbs.org/wnet/gperf/episodes/hamiltons-america/

 

Ngl I SOBBED FOR LIKE THE ENTIRE LAST 10 MINUTES
Also watch through to the very end of the credits ok

 

i had to work very hard not to cry

 

I tried and failed XD Your tearducts are stronger than mine

Spoiler: Documentary spoilers???

Also I'm kinda mad that they a) did NOT give nearly enough time to the ladies and b) you didn't even??? MENTION that John Laurens was more than just Hamilton's friend?????? Okay then.

That said I loved how they actually talked about "yeah hey so there's a bunch of black people playing people who owned slaves" and I loved Chris Jackson saying he couldn't ever come to terms with or forgive Washington for owning people. And DAVEED DIGGS SAYING JEFFERSON SUCKS. I LOVED THAT. But I also loved Leslie Odom Jr. being like, "These people did amazing things, and they did terrible things, because they were people. They were flawed just like the rest of us. And if we focus just on their worst things or their best things, we lose sight of the totality of the person." And I just want to shove that quote into everyone's faces.

 

I'm not crying, I just...got something in my eye...

 

yall i just finished the documentary and i am a goddamn mess ahhhhhhhh

 

WHO LIVES WHO DIES WHO TELLS YOUR STOOOORRYYYYY

Spoiler: super sad sorry omg

and Peggy!

 

pokes my head into this thread
watch this please

 

Good. It is good.
(As certified Lams Trash™, I like how Laurens instantly materialises at Hamilton's side with a big flirty grin as soon as H draws attention to himself.)

 

things like this is why I missed you, cA.

I love that Lafayette, like, damn. And all those sparkly 'senpai' eyes Ham gets >u<

 

I love the Lafayette so much
though I must confess I haven't actually seen Hamilton yet. just obsessively listened to all the songs.

 

i'm laughing at the EYYYY
