Rise Up, Oh Heart, For There is Another Battle to Win

May 29

slyrider asked: OMG AND CABINET BATTLE #1 like damnnn. I want to see this musical so bad but I'm not willing to sell my vital organs lol

YO ME TOO.  Okay, like, I hate Jefferson and have done for years (I am committed to my emotions about historical figures, I’ve hated TJeff for almost as long as I’ve been in love with the Marquis de Lafayette, and I have no regrets).  BUT, that said, I love his part in Cabinet Battle #1.  And Hamilton’s.  But I particularly like the line “Look, when the British taxed our tea, we got frisky; imagine what gon’ happen when you try to tax our whiskey.”

And you know, I don’t feel like selling my vital organs, but if someone’s willing to pay a few grand for an assassin, they could hit me up and I’d be prepared to get the money with someone else’s vital organs, if you feel me.

(In other news, The Reynolds Pamphlet just started and…WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS, HAMILTON.  Also, slay him, Angelica, SLAY HIM.)

slyrider asked: FAM Yorktown gets me hype. Especially when Hercules comes is. I die every time but i cry literally every time i hear the stay alive reprise, it's quiet uptown, the world was wide enough and who lives who dies who tells your story

OH MY GOD FOR REAL.  Yorktown, like, that is my JAM.  Also Stay Alive (I like all the…fighty songs, basically, Yorktown, Stay Alive, Guns and Ships, yeah; I am a little too Hamilton for my own health because I am also the sort of person who meets strangers and goes “I punched this person you know, therefore we’re going to be friends.”).  

And oh God, the Stay Alive reprise.  Do not touch me, I will never be okay, this musical has destroyed my life.  

AND. For emotions in the most compact form I’ve ever encountered, Best of Wives and Best of Women might kind of take the cake.  It’s so fucking short and yet???  By the end of it, I’m DEAD, I am SLAIN.  (Actually, go read the actual letter, it is fucking tragic.)  And oh my God, The World Was Wide Enough is just like.  NO.  I mean, yes, but ALSO NO.  This musical, man, this is so fucking distressing. 

Like, we’re listening to I Know Him and my parents are cracking up (and so am I, I love King George’s songs) and I’m just like “It goes SO BAD from here, guys, enjoy it while you got it.”

words-writ-in-starlight:

I‘m showing my parents Hamilton (well…the soundtrack…because who has money these days) and my mom was crying by the start of Satisfied and I’m just like…can I in good conscience show her It’s Quiet Uptown?  I’m gonna have guilt at the end of this.

BUT HAMILTON IS IMPORTANT SO I’M GONNA DO IT ANYWAY.

Update: my mom, like me, is a Gryffindor to the bone.  My mom, like me, basically burst into tears during Yorktown (I mean, I burst into tears for me, which was…like…two tears total, but whatever).  Why do Gryffindors all cry during Yorktown?  is it because we’re all combative victory-loving people?  Because that’s my explanation.

I’m trying not to think about the upcoming trainwreck now that we just finished Say No to This, SO.  It occurs to me that, in Hamilton, basically every female character who appears except Peggy (who…doesn’t really appear) is in love with Alexander Hamilton.  AND YET.  They still pass the Bechdel test with the very first appearance of the Schuyler sisters.

Inspired by various tumblr posts.

Humans quickly get a reputation among the interplanetry alliance and the reputation is this: when going somewhere dangerous, take a human.

Humans are tough. Humans can last days without food. Humans heal so fast they pierce holes in themselves or inject ink for fun. Humans will walk for days on broken bones in order to make it to safety. Humans will literally cut off bits of themselves if trapped by a disaster.

You would be amazed what humans will do to survive. Or to ensure the survival of others they feel responsible for.

That’s the other thing. Humans pack-bond, and they spill their pack-bonding instincts everywhere. Sure it’s weird when they talk sympathetically to broken spaceships or try to pet every lifeform that scans as non-toxic. It’s even a little weird that just existing in the same place as them for long enough seems to make them care about you. But if you’re hurt, if you’re trapped, if you need someone to fetch help?

You really want a human.

do actors get boners while making sex scenes this is one of the things i’ve wondered my whole life

Idk if you actually care for the answer, but they have to put their dicks in little sleeves that attach to the leg so if they get a boner it just get held down.

that sounds like a garment that should be sold everywhere and considered polite if not mandatory to wear, like bras

Omg I can’t

As a guy I second this.

If I have to wear a titty sling because there might be an event where it becomes chilly and my nip noops become visible through my shirt, people who have a peenor should be expected to wear a peenor sling in case there is an event where a gentle breeze occurs and their peenor becomes erect.

I kind of feel like if we’re gonna do that we should go all-out and they should be IMPOSSIBLE to size, VERY expensive, flimsy, and made of uncomfortable, itchy materials.

And the little ones should have cute designs but the big ones only come in white,black, and tan

my favorite thing Matt Murdock does is turn off the lights when he goes and fights people like “lmao who’s blind now motherfuckers, taste my sticks of justice”
