@mmlata @therealautoblog Mine has been great!

Few automakers have progressed as much or as quickly as Genesis, and the premium brand is once again signaling its intentions to move further upmarket with the presentation of a new X Gran Convertible concept at the 24 Hours of Le Mans this weekend, where the Korean marque is making its Hypercar class debut.

But wait, haven’t we seen a similar concept before? Indeed, at the Seoul Mobility Show last year, Genesis showed the convertible for the first time, but it’s now presenting the drop-top concept in new colorways, and that’s important for a brand that wants to attract the attention of the wealthy, who always prefer a bit of personalization to go with their six- or seven-figure transportation devices.

What makes these Genesis G90-based concepts particularly noteworthy is that they not only look production-ready, but they also eschew the trend of making four-seat convertibles only suitable for two adults, with spacious individual rear seats that have their own console and controls in the middle. A long wheelbase provides the legroom, giving the X Gran Convertible concepts a stately appearance.

With the roof up, the long doors and extended near-monolithic bodywork give me hints of a 1964 Lincoln Continental, though this is a much more curvaceous design with shorter overhangs. Above, we see the Liquid Titanium example contrasted by a bright orange interior, a hue that calls to mind the Genesis Magma Racing division and is repeated in the wheel rims, and below, Genesis shows us Midnight Teal with tartan-inspired fabrics in a calming green hue. If these concepts foreshadow production vehicles, we expect that buyers will have access to many more colorways, both inside and out.

Islamic scholar in California, Uthman Farooq, has a message to Americans:

“You can’t stop Islam in America. This is NOT your country, this is OUR country. This is the land of Allah. If you want to live in a place with no Muslims, I suggest you go to hell.”

Remember folks, Texas was redistricting because of significant demographic change. This was allowed by their state constitution.
Virginia did it to gain Democrat seats to disenfranchise Republicans in a Democrat scheme of retaliation. VA’s efforts violated their state constitution.

A man worked at SaveAround for almost nine years. Loved his job. Genuinely mourned the company founder’s passing. Then found out who the founder voted for—and couldn’t forgive it.

“𝘐 𝘬𝘯𝘦𝘸 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘬 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘐 𝘮𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘰 𝘺𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘥𝘢𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘨𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘮𝘦 𝘮𝘺 𝘫𝘰𝘣.” He made it anyway. Now he’s blaming whoever reported him: “𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘮𝘦 𝘮𝘺 𝘫𝘰𝘣. 𝘐 𝘩𝘰𝘱𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶’𝘳𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘺.”

Nobody cost you your job but you. You had a 𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐞-𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐫, a stable paycheck, and genuine relationships with colleagues. You threw it all away because a d∗ad man’s political choices were so intolerable you had to broadcast your hatred to the internet. 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲𝐫𝐝𝐨𝐦. That’s a grown adult who couldn’t separate politics from basic human decency.

Dear Gavin Newsom,

I hate to rain on your parade but your celebration over the passage of Prop 50 will need to wait a few days.

You have been sued. Your unconstitutional racial gerrymandering is now heading to a federal three-judge panel and maybe to the SCOTUS to determining if your use of race in drawing congressional districts should be enjoined.

We are asking the court to require the old maps to be in effect while we litigation your unconstitutional actions.
