Stagnant is a really terrible word choice, marinades are about flavor and if sufficiently acidic can penetrate and tenderize about a quarter inch into the meat, while brines use salt to make meat tender and juicy all the way through but impart relatively little flavor other than risk of over salting.

You want to avoid brining and marinating at the same time, but brining first, then marinating can make for some exquisite cooking. Also don’t switch the order, brining second will steal the marinade flavors, and for thinner cuts a marinade might be all you need anyway.

I’m relieved this post has some good replies rejecting this brine propoganda.

Imagine going to a party and the white suburban stay at home mom with two overachiever kids and white dad who barbeques but doesn’t know how to barbeque and yet is always surrounded by other white Dads who compliment his barbqeuing even though they’re just store bought preshaped frozen patties from Ralph’s or Food 4 Less and while he’s cooking those the white mom comes out and says “okay kids, here’s some pizza!” And she pulls this out and starts telling the kids why its a “fun pizza” and then cries in her master bedroom when no one likes it or finishes it and the white dad is then consoling her why she sobs that she’s a terrible mother and ruined her fourth grade straight B+ sons birthday and thinks her kids hate her but they don’t care but she continues crying softly into her pillow while the children eat poorly cooked burgers with unmelted kraft singles and too much mayonnaise and the only other condiments are two pickles and pepper because the dad calls it his special burger with a secret spice but the spice was just pepper and the kids just keep playing E rated games on their Nintendo Wii while the 17 year old older sister starts cleaning the tragedy up and throwing away uneaten “fun pizza” and whole burgers dejected from the start while she dials Pizza Hut to get these kids an actual birthday lunch and the mother then throws a fit because the daughter did something the kids liked and she didn’t and was the only one making a huge deal out of it and the daughter was then grounded from her TV in her room for only two days and the son went to blow out the candles in his standard birthday cake from food 4 less the mom added strawberries to so she could feel she did something but was still slightly teary and sad because her day was ruined by no one wanting to eat her “fun pizza”

Musicals + Costumes: Hamilton (2016 Broadway) by Paul Tazewell

These are the men on dollar bills and coins, and you’re marrying that with the way Lin [Manuel Miranda] wrote Hamilton. The choreography and music is contemporary, so how the cast moves in the clothing had to be contemporary. Getting that to mesh was the challenge. Where on the spectrum of the 18th century to 2016 would be the best place to land? So we decided to get it up on its feet in clothes to see what it does. At the play’s workshop, I pulled 18th-century clothing. We put ladies in corsets and skirts and men in uniform coats. That’s where the idea of a neutral palette became important. It started as an idea to connect Hamilton to paper or parchment, where things begin before he starts to write. And as characters are revealed, we start to individualize them. Hamilton becomes the prime character to change, and everyone starts to shift and take on an individual color palette. Green for Hamilton was specific for Lin. It’s the color of money.
