ahammyham: ho ho ho and merry Christmas to all

Jmadison: isn't it Happy Hollidays now, Hamilton?

trtlfckr666: nah. according to prez fart, we can say merry christmas again

Jmadison: but wouldn't that dismiss the importance of New Year and Hannukah and Kwanzaa?

trtlfckr666: didn't know you celebrated Kwanzaa, James.

Jmadison: I don't. Not every black person celebrates Kwanzaa.

ahammyham: no offense or anything, but I don't know a black person who celebrates kwanzaa

Jmadison:don't the Schuylers?

ahammyham: well Philip Schuyler is black, but Catherine is white. Their family is really mixed race. I mean it.

trtlfckr666: oh yeah, there's Angelica and Peggy, who you know are black. Eliza is Chinese.

ahammyham: their youngest is vietnamese.

trtlfckr666: second youngest is hispanic

ahammyham:two of their kids are white

trtlfckr666:and their lone biological kid is mixed race.

trtlfckr666: obvs.

ahammyham:that's two black, two white, two asian, one mixed race, one hispanic.

trtlfckr666:or two hispanic if you include me I lived there too.

wait4it:what's going on?

Jmadison: nothing.

ahammyham:aaron, do you celebrate Kwanzaa?

wait4it: yeah

ahammyham: really?

wait4it: I'm black. I'm an orphan. I'm stuck here all through the holidays.

wait4it: all I got is Theo, Theo Junior and the Black Heritage Club took me in when I had noone.

wait4it: well I have a sister but she lives in Connectuicut.

wait4it: so I celebrate with them

trtlfckr666: your girlfriend and kid?

wait4it: no the Black Heritage Club.

wait4it: but it'll be Theo Junior's first Kwanzaa.

ahammyham:Why don't you just call her Theodosia?

wait4it: Theo's name is Theodosia.

Jmadison: But we call her Theo.

trtlfckr666: It would help differentiate the two without you having to be Theo Junior all the time.

Hunkules added TJEFFS to the group chat

TJEFFS: What up!

ahammyham:fuck you, Hercules.

ahammyham: and a double fuck you, Jeffertwat.

TJEFFS: I take that to mean you don't want to know where Li'l Peggy Schuyler is.

ahammyham: I do!

ahammyham: I just don't want to be at your mercy.

wait4it: don't be a dick Jefferson. Just tell us.

TJEFFS: No way. He called me Jeffertwat.

Hunkules: he already told me. She's in Florida.

ahammyham: Looks like you and I are taking that trip to Disney World, John.

trtlfckr666: in the New Year, right?

ahammyham: obviously.

ahammyham: apparently it's so crammed up in Disney World at Christmas you can't move. And I'm in a wheelchair.

trtlfckr666: because it's bothering me, do any other people in this chat celebrate Kwanzaa?

TJEFFS: I don't

Hunkules: what's Kwanzaa?

theosr: Aaron does. I don't.

BigBrother:I don't usually comment in this chat but my family does-I don't.

ActualAngel: Maria's family does.

marialewis: yep. They do. But they cut me out for being lesbian so I don't.

I-Am-Lafcelot: My family does. And me.

jjblm: I do.Â

mwhale: I'm white so no.

sallyh: my mom does so we celebrate with her.

Bring-D-Payne: I'm white too.

elizaluvspuppies: I'm Chinese. I do Chinese New Year.

nedical&proud: I have literally no idea what Kwanzaa is. I've never heard of it before.

wait4it: where are you from that they don't have Kwanzaa?

nedical&proud:The West Indies.

Hunkules: pretty sure Kwanzaa is an American thing anyway.

wait4it: aren't you African American too, Hercules?

Hunkules:I'm Irish American. Actually.

jjblm:oh.

Hunkules: You disappointed, John?

jjblm:I just had a vision of Irish people being short and ginger and white.

Hunkules: racist.

jjblm: I'm amNOT a racist!

jjblm: I run the Black Lives Matter group!

mwhale: well, it's buying into stereotypes for sure.

marialewis: which in itself can be racist.

ahammyham: is nobody going to talk about the fact that Big Brother himself William Van Ness commented here?

A/N: Happy Christmas!
Just a few notes today:
Aaron Burr's older sister Sarah "Sally" Burr married a dude called Tapping Reeve. They lived in Connecticut for a while before moving to New Jersey. And you know what? She didn't have the best of health either. Just assume that people Aaron Burr was related to and/or married didn't have good health. Some damn bad luck you had there, Aaron Burr.
And remember that Christmas present John gave Alex last year? The trip to Disney World? Yeah, well, I didn't forget about it either. They're going! Going to find Peggy in Florida! (That bit is obviously not historical as Florida did not gain statehood until 1845, long after Peggy Schuyler died (in 1801), I made it up for dramatic license.)
Disney World really does get crowded at Christmas.
And here in the UK we don't have Kwanzaa, so I have no idea what the heck it is, other than it's a celebration for American black people. If anyone wants to enlighten me, I'm all ears.
