“Poor Greta. Life without petroleum and petroleum based products.
One crisp winter morning in Sweden, a cute little girl named Greta woke up to a perfect world, one where there were no petroleum products ruining the earth. She tossed aside her cotton sheet and wool blanket and stepped out onto a dirt floor covered with willow bark that had been pulverized with rocks.
“What’s this?” she asked.
“Pulverized willow bark,” replied her fairy godmother.
“What happened to the carpet?” she asked.
“The carpet was nylon, which is made from butadiene and hydrogen cyanide, both made from petroleum,” came the response.
Greta smiled, acknowledging that adjustments are necessary to save the planet, and moved to the sink to brush her teeth where instead of a toothbrush, she found a willow, mangled on one end to expose wood fibre bristles.
“Your old toothbrush?” noted her godmother, “Also nylon.”
“Where’s the water?” asked Greta.
“Down the road in the canal,” replied her godmother, Just make sure you avoid water with cholera in it.”
“Why’s there no running water?” Greta asked, becoming a little peevish.
“Well,” said her godmother, who happened to teach engineering at MIT, “Where do we begin?”
There followed a long monologue about how sink valves need elastomer seats and how copper pipes contain copper, which has to be mined and how it’s impossible to make all-electric earth-moving equipment with no gear lubrication or tires and how ore has to be smelted to a make metal, and that’s tough to do with only electricity as a source of heat, and even if you use only electricity, the wires need insulation, which is petroleum-based, and though most of Sweden’s energy is produced in an environmentally friendly way because of hydro and nuclear, if you do a mass and energy balance around the whole system, you still need lots of petroleum products like lubricants and nylon and rubber for tires and asphalt for filling potholes and wax and iPhone plastic and elastic to hold your underwear up while operating a copper smelting furnace and . . .
“What’s for breakfast?” interjected Greta, whose head was hurting.
"Fresh, range-fed chicken eggs,” replied her godmother. “Raw.”
“How so, raw?” inquired Greta.
“Well, . . .” And once again, Greta was told about the need for petroleum products like transformer oil and scores of petroleum products essential for producing metals for frying pans and in the end was educated about how you can’t have a petroleum-free world and then cook eggs. Unless you rip your front fence up and start a fire and carefully cook your egg in an orange peel like you do in Boy Scouts. Not that you can find oranges in Sweden anymore.
“But I want poached eggs like my Aunt Tilda makes,” lamented Greta.
“Tilda died this morning,” the godmother explained. “Bacterial pneumonia.”
“What?!” interjected Greta. “No one dies of bacterial pneumonia! We have penicillin.”
“Not anymore,” explained godmother “The production of penicillin requires chemical extraction using isobutyl acetate, which, if you know your organic chemistry, is petroleum-based. Lots of people are dying, which is problematic because there’s not any easy way of disposing of the bodies since backhoes need hydraulic oil and crematoriums can’t really burn many bodies using as fuel Swedish fences and furniture, which are rapidly disappearing - being used on the black market for roasting eggs and staying warm.”
This represents only a fraction of Greta’s day, a day without microphones to exclaim into and a day without much food, and a day without carbon-fibre boats to sail in, but a day that will save the planet.
Tune in tomorrow when Greta needs a root canal and learns how Novocain is synthesized.”

Wow.

[MadMagus @Jupiter_SAF]

@KonstantinKisin J6, the summer of love, the attempts on Trump’s life… all felt like skirmishes. This feels very different.

I hope I’m wrong too, but I fear the dam just broke.

@myunforcedera @piersmorgan If by genocide you mean woke anti-semitism, I agree!

To all sane, impartial observers, the Palestinian population - unlike the populations of every developed nation - continues to increase in size:

@clairlemon Character assassination hit-piece because you can’t attack his policies on their own merits.

It won’t work because it’s such a transparent sham.

@brian_mistrot @JesseKellyDC Education utterly failed you. Investment is THE EXACT OPPOSITE of seizing the means of production. Now Intel has billions to invest in increasing domestic production of chips we rely almost entirely on Taiwan to produce.

[MadMagus @Jupiter_SAF]

@CColose @JesseKellyDC The mayor of the city where that lunatic killed and injured Christian children en masse made a point of denigrating prayer THE DAY AFTER the shooting.

Signaling your contempt for Christianity doesn’t get any more blatant than that.

And I’m not even Christian.

"Aren’t there some people who genuinely believe that they were born in the wrong body?"

"Yes but there’s also schizophrenic people who believe they’re Batman and think they can fly off the Empire State Building. Pretending their delusion is true makes you evil, NOT virtuous."

Today is a good day to remind people that there’s nothing kind or virtuous about validating a delusion that leads to a dangerous mental spiral.

@realMaalouf An orgy of dominance displays.

It’s simple: if the cost of these displays exceeded the benefit, they’d end.

Give me a break. As though MS-13 wasn’t still very active in the US (NY, Maryland, LA, etc.).

Here’s just one example of an ongoing case:

August 8, 2025 - New York (Nassau County):
• Three MS-13 members, including Elias Wilfredo Serrano Bonilla and Jeffrey Bladimir Valladares Archaga, were arrested in a joint operation by ICE, the Nassau County Police Department, and the FBI. They faced charges including 16 counts of attempted murder, 49 counts of assault, robbery, and weapons offenses. Serrano Bonilla was charged with eight counts of attempted murder, among other crimes, related to gang activities in Nassau County.

@realMaalouf A dominance display.

I’m sympathetic to the argument that burning the American flag is protected speech, but right now we are putting people in prison for spinning their tires over the Pride flag, so it might be a good idea to have the debate about which symbols are sacred in America today

[MadMagus @Jupiter_SAF]

@stacycay @Zomniac Cracking down on MS-13 - which literally reigns by terror - is framed by leftists as reigning by terror. 🤡

[MadMagus @Jupiter_SAF]

@Zomniac @stacycay The left STILL supporting this criminal wife-beating gang member.

No wonder your cities are so dangerous.

[MadMagus @Jupiter_SAF]

@Dean4IL @stacycay After he’s deported to El Salvador and likely returned to prison?

[MadMagus @Jupiter_SAF]

@Pro__Trading Talk about digging your own hole deeper! “Honest mistake”… What a clown. 🤡

[MadMagus @Jupiter_SAF]

@JehadAbusalim Genius. The IDF turned a jihadi command center and entrance to terrorist tunnels (otherwise known as a Palestinian school) into their own military command center.

This is called winning the war.

[MadMagus @Jupiter_SAF]

@WallStreetApes Censorship isn’t enough for the rabid left. Now they have to compel speech on punishment of prison.

Anyone willing to live under that tyranny deserves what they get.

[MadMagus @Jupiter_SAF]

@DefiantLs Like stealing someone’s shit isn’t aggressive. That girl got off easy.

[MadMagus @Jupiter_SAF]

@BreitbartNews The left has gone from denying there is truth to fully embracing the lie.

Bolton is just the beginning. They must hold all the neocon RINOs and Dems who illegally targeted Trump et all accountable. There must be prosecutions and jail time.

[MadMagus @Jupiter_SAF]

@amuse They spit in the faces of law enforcement while Dems cheer them on.

Dems have fully embraced anarchy.
