I was watching a Pat Loller — who, let me just say, models a left wing version of patriotism that I absolutely find great delight in — TikTok about vmail and airgraph.

Here’s the Pat Loller TikTok:

And a couple articles about vmail and airgraph:

I did not know about either of these and was super excited to learn about both, and the airgraph predecessor involving carrier pigeons in the Paris siege of 1870.
