Dear Gus & Magnus,

After a long day of shooting in Tampa in two separate locations for multiple videos, we hit the road for Boca Raton, three and a half hours southeast. We stopped for dinner in Bartow, then got to Boca at 11:15pm. Today was a long day and we are all spent. One more full day of filming, then I'll drop these guys at the airport in Fort Lauderdale and start the long drive home.

Mom said Magnus has felt better and will likely go back to school tomorrow.

Dad.

Bartow, Florida. 5.10.2023 - 8.18pm.

Stuffed Flounder w/Broccoli, Salad. Mike’s Grill. Bartow, Florida. 5.10.2023.

NOTE TO SELF: I swear I didn't want to like this meal, especially after the salad came out absolutely coated in ranch dressing and the rolls came with cinnamon butter, but the entree was buttery and delicious. I also appreciated the heaping pile of broccoli, which I dragged through the butter of the fish. Keep expectations low, but I can't imagine a better place in this weird town.

Currently ranked 5th of 19 May meals.

Something About Steve

Recently, Bartow County Commissioner Steve Taylor said to me: “You’re too high maintenance” for our service. He was referring to Bartow Transit, a state and tax funded transportation service available to all Bartow County citizens. Some other things he said: “Bartow Transit is not a Taxi service.” “You’re not entitled to use our services.” Why did the Commissioner make these remarks? Because…

#save elizabeth schuyler hamilton from male biographers 2024

Just got pissed off so bad. I'm in the middle of reading Burr, Hamilton, and Jefferson: A Study in Character, which presents an intriguing argument that Burr deserves to be put back into the Founding Father Pantheon, so to speak. The author doesn't shy away from hitting hard against the idea that Jeff & Ham were morally superior to Burr, and I was on board! Ready to go!

But then. During the discussion of the women in each of their lives, the author decides the best way to further promote Burr's attitude towards women compared to Jefferson and Hamilton is to disparage Martha Jefferson & Elizabeth Hamilton?

On Martha Jefferson:

Martha Wayles Skelton had been a widow, and none of Jefferson's biographers, even the resourceful Fawn Brodie, has been able to tell us much about her—from the solitary letter remaining to us in her hand or the accounts of their contemporaries—beyond the general impression that she was handsome, musical, and frail.

On Elizabeth Hamilton:

Hamilton's Elizabeth was an heiress, the daughter of an upstate squire, Philip Schuyler, with Livingston and van Rensselaer connections. She was plain, straightforward, loyal, and neurasthenic, endured his flagrant and frequent infidelities, and lived to the brink of the Civil War.

I'm sorry, I don't know enough about Martha J. to protest to her characterization, but I think I can say something about Eliza. Plain? Neurasthenic? And once again, annoyed at the lack of citation or evidence for flagrant and frequent infidelities - but putting that aside, even if it were true, I don't like how her staying in her marriage is subtly implied to be some failure or at least less interesting than a woman who didn't "endure" them. There's a lack of consideration of both her own strength & the societal circumstances of that time that would have influenced her actions.

On Theodosia:

Her character emerges from their large and fervent correspondence. She was confident, well connected, well read, beautiful even after a burn scarred her face, witty, worldly, and full of expectations of him.

Okay. The author saw the point and it sailed over his head. "From their large and fervent correspondence" is key here. Like I said earlier, I don't know enough about Martha Jefferson, but I bet that "handsome, musical, frail" is probably not an all-encompassing picture of her. The similarity between her and Eliza? We don't have the letters that they wrote to their husbands. It's unfair to judge Theodosia (don't get me wrong! she was well read and intelligent, that's not what i'm denying) from her correspondence with Burr, but then not acknowledge that the lack of that perspective would impact how we view the other two women.

And to top it all off:

Unlike Jefferson's and Hamilton's, Burr's character was molded by the love of a woman of immense force and intelligence.

Neither Hamilton nor Jefferson married a woman who evidenced such force of character and independence of view.

Jesus Christ. There's plenty to criticize about Jefferson & Hamilton, and I really wanted to see a well-reasoned argument about Burr's character and whatnot but this lacks nuance and is unnecessarily dismissive. It pisses me off that a book that seems determined to break down the idolized version of Hamilton, somehow ends up using his wife to further their angle, just like biased Hamiltonian biographies. In both cases, Eliza is the plain, unintelligent, steadfast wife. For sympathetic authors like Chernow, that's somehow justification for the Reynolds affair. For Roger G. Kennedy, that's used in an argument against her husband. "Let's talk attitude towards women! Hamilton & Jefferson didn't have intellectual wives! Point for Burr!"

I don't know nearly enough about Martha Jefferson to say anything of merit, but really?

To give credit where credit is due, I think Kennedy is trying to make the point here that Theodosia Bartow Burr was a major influence on Burr, as "Burr's character blossomed in the radiance of his wife and mentor". He also goes on to talk about various genuine reasons why Burr's attitude towards women is noteworthy. But I still don't like the way he dismissed the other two women as what? Not smart enough to help their husbands' characters blossom? Maybe there's merit to this book outside of this one section, The Women, but right now I'm not in the mood. Am I being dramatic? Idk.

#aughh i'm pissed so maybe i'm being too dramatic #idk let's post it on the internet for everyone to see. smart decision.#alexander hamilton #thomas jefferson #aaron burr #martha jefferson #elizabeth schuyler #elizabeth hamilton #theodosia bartow burr #historical hamilton #amrev #elizabeth schuyler hamilton

Special Someone on the Side

"You're very kind but I'm afraid it's unlawful, sir." "What do you mean?" "She's married." "I see." "She's married to a British officer." "Oh shit."

No one asked for it, but here are my thoughts on this interaction:

There are things between the lines!

and I wrote them.

Enjoy :)

Hamburr friendship :3 (mentioned hamiliza and lams) 629 words.

It was a pleasant night after Hamilton’s wedding. Eliza was bidding her family goodbye while he was supposed to do the same with his friends, but here they were, getting even more drunk.

Burr showed up, seemingly failing to have talked to Alexander during the event and was trying his best to ignore the boys and their teasing.

He was almost done congratulating Hamilton on his marriage and his position as aide-de-camp to Washington, when Laurens deemed the subject too boring and changed it.

“Well, well, I heard,” He got uncomfortably close to Burr. “You got a special someone on the side, Burr.” He shot Alexander a sneaky glance.

“Is that so?” Hamilton laughed at his boyfriend's antics.

“What’re you tryna hide, Burr?” Laurens slurred in Burr’s ear who’d reached his limit.

“I should go.”

Hamilton instantly disagreed. “No, these guys should go.”

“What?” Laurens turned to Hamilton in thinly veiled betrayal. “No!”

“Leave us alone.” Hamilton gave him a pointed look. I’m getting us the gossip.

“Man!” Laurens rolled his eyes fondly, grabbing Lafayette and Mulligan as they stalked away, resigned.

Being with Hamilton alone seemed to make Burr slightly nervous.

“It’s alright, Burr.” Alexander smiled a little. “I wish you’d brought this girl with you tonight.” Hamilton couldn’t help seeing that Burr was lacking a plus one at the wedding.

“You’re very kind,” Burr looked down, fidgeting with the handkerchief in his hand. Hamilton spotted the initials T.B.P. Now who could that belong to? The special someone on the side, perhaps? “But I’m afraid it’s unlawful, sir.”

Oh?

Is it?

In what way?

Hamilton found himself thinking of his nights with Laurens, in their tent, under the cover of night.

Had Burr also found a lad during their battles?

“What do you mean?” Hamilton asked, a light tone and a smirk emerging with the words. If Burr was going to confess something, he wanted him to know he’d be accepted.

“She’s married.”

Oh. Hamilton deflated. “I see.”

No matter, they might still be able to work around this. Burr could be with his beau regardless. With a simple divorce, or even a duel for the lady’s honor, it could be manageable. As long as she isn’t—

“She’s married to a British officer.”

“Oh shit.”

Hamilton hadn’t realized he’d said it outloud until he heard Burr chuckle self-deprecatingly.

“Congrats again, Alexander.” Burr turned to go but Hamilton’s mind was still reeling.

There must still be a way for his friend and the one he loves to be together.

“Smile more.” Burr was walking away.

They could be happy and in love and together without a random British officer in their way.

“I’ll see you on the other side of the war.” Wait, what? He’ll simply give up like that?

“I will never understand you.” Hamilton found himself saying.

Burr turned around, confused. They were alone on the terrace, the quiet lull of people leaving the building could be heard distantly.

“If you love this woman, go get her!” Yes, he might lose his head in the process, but for love! Isn’t he willing to risk everything to get what he wants? “What are you waiting for?”

Burr eyed Alexander carefully, trying to discern something before he sighed. “I’ll see you on the other side of the war.”

He’s beyond saving. Hamilton sighed back, resigned. “I’ll see you on the other side of the war.”

When Washington had finally given him a command, Hamilton made sure to wound and kill every single British officer he came into contact with.

To this day, he’s not sure if he did kill Theodosia’s late-husband personally, but she’s living happily with Burr in married bliss and having Hamilton and his wife over for tea and biscuits weekly.

So Burr won anyway.
