Woahh Is It Based Off Of This?

woahh is it based off of this?

Work in progress

sanctuary! it's a siege! my tiktok fyp is attacking me! 😭

"who is george washington shipped with" oh honey you've got a storm coming.

i also think that this person, Double_Aught_Buh, is one of us. reveal yourself. you speak with the wisdom of someone on amrev tumblr.

tumblr just informed me that the sappy post was my 100th one and offered me a "top poster" badge with a vaguely disturbing pair of dentures.

i think it's mocking me for posting so much in the course of like a week and two days 😭

the audacity to ask me to display this on my blog. like i want to scare more people away.

maybe this is a controversial statement but every time i see someone get very upset about fandom surrounding the founding fathers and how it's romanticizing them - have you considered that being forced into a homosexual relationship with their worst political enemies is most likely the biggest nightmare of those 18th century white men?

if anything the amrev fandom is probably humiliating these men on a much more visceral, personal level than academic critique (which is still important!).

i dunno, i think their complicated legacies can make space for an interesting conversation on dismantling these figures as larger than life. pulling them "down" to the level of shipping online. it's complicated and i do understand there is reason why people don't like it, especially in consideration of hamilton the musical, but i think it's worth thinking about.

it's like i understand it but my brain has self preservation skills and has chosen to numb itself? so that the information slides off of the surface when i realize i watch shitty documentaries and read letters on a governmental archive "for fun".

I love it here but do you guys ever like. Realize you run a blog about the American Revolution.

yes we can have historical accuracy or we can have the scene in george washington (1984) where washington shakes his soldiers' hands and embraces them- but gets to hamilton and ignores the offered hand to pull him into a tight hug with tears in his eyes.

so i don't know what you want from me.

btw the curly haired dude before hamilton is tench tilghman. my aides de camp.
