Trump Loves Kei Cars and Other Weird Facts - Alloy Cute trumps economic realities amid CAFE standard chaos, as whim becomes a guiding policy principle.

I donโ€™t know who does these descriptions for RSTB but they are the best in the business, and the labelโ€™s recordings have like a 90% hit rate with me.

Full of cool stories, traditional meanings of current symbols and holidays, quarter turns, goats, hags in flour mills you know, the usual.

John Andre ultimately paid for Arnoldโ€™s treason - and the carriage ride with him had to be one of the most satisfying of Tallmadgeโ€™s life - but considering Arnoldโ€™s plan failed & he lived out his days in shame and disrespect in the country which turned him, he probably got what he deserved.

Arnold was a capable officer, trapping and burning a French frigate during the 7 Years War at Fairfield, CT on whatโ€™s still called Ash Creek, and his campaigns along the upper Hudson/St. Lawrence were broadly successful, but he was poisoned by resentment and leveraged by debt.

On this day 40 years ago, Fables of the Reconstruction was voted Album of the Year at the College Media Journal Awards in New York City. @millsish.bsky.social thanked college radio and the alternative scene, "without which most of the great rock'n'roll of today would never be heard by mortal ears."
