I just saw a guy driving a big truck like a ford F150 with a bunch of lumber stuck through the window of the second row of the cabin, like in one side out the other, presumably because it was too long to go in the very short bed. Congrats on designing trucks that defeat the purpose of trucks.

found out in 1867, black people in New Orleans protested segregated streetcars by riding whites-only cars. The streetcar companies appealed to then military commander General Sheridan who said ā€œintegrate or elseā€ and wrote to Grant, ā€œthey are now all happily riding togetherā€.

One striking detail in this story: The Pastor at Lake Church, where Mark Robinson gave this speech, told me he and Robinson expected these remarks to be "scrutinized." Then the Pastor defended them!

Compact was a joint project of some ā€œanti-wokeā€ socialists and some ā€œanti-wokeā€ nationalists and so it comes as quite a surprise to learn that one of their senior editors has been exposed as a National Socialist.
