Closeup crop for the funny 🙏

thinking about Your Obedient Servant too much I NEEDED to draw something somewhat related. Idk I'm just a big fan of the passive aggressive waltzy tune in the chorus. And so I shall draw Ham and Burr dancing. Naturally

Do I know how hair greying works. Do I look. No I don't. Fuck it we Ball

hamilton things i can't stop thinking about pt. 1

"Wait For It'", sung by Aaron Burr, is about being willing to wait for opportunities and not rushing into action.

His character is portrayed as being chronically cautious, because he has a reputation to uphold, unlike Hamilton.

But.

The one time Burr acts impulsively is when he shoots Hamilton, and right before the bullet hits he yells "WAIT!"

Burr regrets shooting Hamilton. Both of them have ignored their core song lyrics that they repeat over and over again.

Hamilton threw away his shot.

And Burr did not wait for it.

Let that sink in.

On July 11, 1804 (exactly 220 years ago today), Aaron Burr killed Alexander Hamilton in a duel in Weehawken, New Jersey.

While the Burr-Hamilton Duel is obviously one of the most famous incidents in American history, it's important to take a moment and realize just how insane this event actually was. Burr -- the incumbent Vice President of the United States -- shot and killed Hamilton -- a fellow Founding Father, former Treasury Secretary, and architect of the American financial system. The Vice President of the United States was charged with murder in New Jersey and his home state of New York and avoided being arrested and put on trial because he went back to Washington, D.C. so that he could perform his Constitutionally-prescribed duty to preside over the U.S. Senate for the remainder of his term. While Vice President Burr was under indictment for MURDER, he calmly and efficiently presided over the only impeachment trial of a Supreme Court Justice in American history! Don't let anyone ever convince you that American politics hasn't always been batshit crazy.
