In delightful Mardi Gras news, a couple of Cybertrucks paraded with US flags in one of the more racist krewes.
After being booed and relentlessly pelted with plastic beads by spectators, the windshields and windows were broken and they had to leave the parade early.

When the queen of one of New Orleans’ oldest Black krewes meets a handsome stranger, she’s head over heels! But will the romance survive the fact his family is in one of the city’s old-line racist krewes? Hallmark presents COMUS YOU ARE #mardigrasromcom

Apparently one of the Mardi Gras krewes had Cybertrucks in their parade. They had to pull them off the route because people were hucking beads at them and they cracked a windshield.

When Dorothy Mae Taylor’s ordinance to desegregate Carnival krewes passed, Dr. Francis received so many invitations to join formerly all white krewes he couldn’t possibly join them all.
Sympathies to his large extended family.

And to think, women and all-female krewes are a significant part of keeping New Orleans Carnival going these days.
Carnival Facts:
The first all-female parade krewe, Krewe of Venus, had their first parade in 1941. They were met with rain & heckling men & women along their route. It was believed women shouldn't ride; a misconception Venus was correcting. Venus disbanded in the 1990s.

The oldest, white dude Krewes have throws that are boring and stingily tossed.
Medium age all gender Krewes are more creative and more generous.
Truly excellent, beautiful or useful throws come from the all-women and Black Krewes.

The only kings I am okay with are the following: king cake, kings of Mardi Gras Krewes, drag kings, and the occasional Elvis impersonators.
