YOU GUYS KNOW IT

I KNOW IT

EVERYONE KNOWS IT

(Actually not many people know it because John Laurens is not that known bUT LETS PRETEND IT'S NOT THAT WAY)

IT'S JOHN LAURENS BIRTHDAY!!!

*Throws confeti everywhere*

Yes!!! It's the birthday of our sad reckless abolitionist son! The same one that thinks that white is the easiest color to clean and doesn't know how to spell the word 'galley'. The one that would've lived longer if he hadn't killed himself at age 27—

cOFF COFF COFF

We are not talking about that today. Nope.

BECAUSE TODAY IT'S HIS 263rd BIRTHDAY!

*More confeti*

Now let's have some fun birthday facts about Laurens, like his father not being sure of his birthdate

''The Boy you Enquire so kindly after is now on the Verge of 15. I believe this is his birth day, he is a most diligent inquirer after knowledge & his general deportment presents to me the pleasing prospect of seeing him mature all his acquirements into that valuable & only desirable knowledge which may be called Wisdom'

Uhhhhh....

You can curse him here --->

ANYWAYS!!

This book has 31K reads already!!! First of all, thank you so much guys for reading this it makes me very happy that people want to learn about historical John Laurens!

And second

THAT MEANS 31K HUGS FOR LAURENS IN HEAVEN!!

(He is in Heaven and no one can convince me otherwise).

Now, because it's his birthday, let's all say what is your favorite John Laurens fact, because why the fuck no!

Mine is him being literally the only human being on Earth not crushing on John André, I just find it hilarious.

But I just love John in general, he's just such a cool character with so many cool things aside from him being gay and deserves so much recognition.

Like, just imagine history if Laurens hadn't died. Imagine 3,000 free slaves in the mid 1780's! Imagine him and Hamilton being the next super duo much like Jefferson and Madison in politics! Imagine what he could've done if he hadn't...

NOT SAYING THAT WORD AGAIN!!

But just imagine!!!!

And now let's be sad because it didn't happen....

MOVING ON!

263 years, my baby is growing up so fast!

Person: Dude he died like 250 years ago—

I SAID HE'S GROWING UP SO FAST AND THAT'S FINAL!

*Inhales*

But anyways, I hope John is having an amazing birthday in heaven with lots of nature that he can draw that are not always turtles!

Also I did a little drawing for the birthday, could've been better but anyways. It's with John's historical appearance which I really like to draw every once in a while!

Stay tuned for more facts that I may or not may post about him later, I honestly don't know
