Wednesday Link Salad

Links, having accumulated, will now be dispensed:

A) One of the units in Monday's parade was a float from Rumshine Distilling (warning - link plays music), a new craft distilling operation which recently started up near Westville.

B) An interesting post: what riding a bike taught me about white privilege. The tl:dr version - traffic laws and customs are set up for cars, not bikes. Society in the US is set up for white men, not others.

C) Mystery solved! Death Valley has a famous area where rocks move on their own. Now we know why.

D) Yes, Virginia, female Vikings went to war and engaged in hand-to-hand combat. Apparently lots of them.

E) Jim Hines is wise on the subject of hacked nude photos. A taste:

Today in "Damn, I wish I'd said that..."

"If you don't want nude pics leaked, don't take nude pics with your phone—
*Tasers you*
*steals your shoes*
SHOULDN'T WEAR SHOES BRO"

F) Amateurs study tactics, professionals study logistics. Kaiser Wilhelm was an amateur: Germany's plan to invade America in WWI.

Tomorrow, thoughts on how air conditioning made America, or terraforming Earth.
