Or less, depending on when you're reading this. The long wait is almost over for the biggest at-home event of the year: the full Original Cast stage production of Hamilton, the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winning phenomenon from actor/writer/composer Lin-Manuel Miranda.

Preston Esq. and Theodore Logan can't quite shake. Nevertheless, when the heart's in the right place, it's still worth it to party on. That's the vibe of the first official trailer for Bill & Ted [...]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3pk_TBkihU&t= It's not time travel. It's inversion. To put it in practical terms, it's like what John David Washington's agent is told: "You're not shooting the bullet. You're catching it." Whoa.
