The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Dope1: On the one hand they’re some of the wokest of the woke. Lin Manuel Miranda (or whatever his name is) literally stopped a show because Mike Pence was sitting there and he wanted to be able to launch into a stupid lecture.

As usual, you're full of shit.

At the end of the show, after the curtain came down, cast member Brandon Victor Dixon (not Miranda himself) delivered a brief statement from the stage directed at Pence.

The statement welcomed Pence and expressed hope that the incoming administration would “uphold our American values and work on behalf of all of us.”

Here is the speech in its entirety: Vice President-elect Pence, we welcome you, and we truly thank you for joining us here at "Hamilton: An American Musical." We really do. We, sir, are the diverse America who are alarmed and anxious that your new administration will not protect us, our planet, our children, our parents or defend us and uphold our inalienable rights, sir. But we truly hope this show has inspired you to uphold our American values and to work on behalf of all of us - all of us. Thank you truly for seeing this show, this wonderful American story told by a diverse group of men, women of different colors, creeds and orientations.

Boo f*cking hoo, snowflake.
