Mitigated Disaster

So long and thanks for all the fish.

No, having people go in person to vote unless they have a reason for being absent not only works fine, it makes more sense and increases confidence in the system. Adding piles of unregulated “broker” ballots is not increasing civic participation

[Matt Taibbi @mtaibbi]

Yes and the proliferation of “mostly mail-in” systems enabled by outsourced private ballot harvesters is a major, revolutionary change in how America does elections - and there’s no reason for it post-Covid. Why can’t people go to vote? It’s too hard? Wtf?

Underrated post.

@jarvis_best 1) outlaw dentistry in england
2) mandatory yodelling lessons for the swiss/austrians
3) germans allowed to make cars/machinery and beer exclusively
4) italians can choose to steer gondolas or make cheese/coffee/spaghetti
4) france is for wine and hookers

I have decided on a solution to the European problem. They are obviously not fit for self-governance, thus resulting in a permanent state of extreme poverty and a lack of air conditioning so severe that we are tempted to simply let the place collapse. On the other hand, Europe has some beautiful cities and ancient culture that is worth preserving if for no other reason than we enjoy visiting.

So what we need is a grand compromise wherein we permit Europe to continue to exist, but in return, we improve things and become a responsible, kind, benevolent despot.

I call it THE JARVIS PLAN.

@rlj_law @ATabarrok My daughter asked me why there are so many pussies who complain about our national traditions. I didn't have a good answer for her.

The data out of Oregon really are astonishing.

A phenomenon once observed in about 1 in 20,000 adult men and 1 in 50,000 adult women (DSM-5) is now being diagnosed and medically treated in at least 1 in 250 17-year-old girls in Oregon.

Please stop tagging me in this and asking if I tried guzzling Good Nut

This is the best route to go down for America 250. No point in trying to replicate mainstream cultural production. Lean into what MAGA actually is—patriotic, daredevil, American Fair kitsch.

Give us Monster Trucks and Revolutionary War reenactors. Not has-been pop stars.

I wish Will Thomas had been better at swimming so he'd have stayed in men's.

LA is wild because the election will be between a Cuban trained Marxist guerrilla fighter and a woman running to her left.

I miss President Franklin so much

[John Ʌ Konrad V @johnkonrad]

How many WWII veterans have you actually spoken with lately?

@shesova and I have sat down with dozens since Biden took office.

I won’t share their private politics. But this man captures the majority view pretty damn well.

@WSMFP73 Do Muslims eat custard tho?

[Mitigated Disaster @mitigatedisastr]

@WSMFP73 Not me on that one. But I was wondering why anyone would want to attract flies with honey.

[Mitigated Disaster @mitigatedisastr]

@KingBrokenT I dunno man. Raping an intruder is kinda different.

@johnkonrad "Naval officers should not wear camouflage."

Aren't Seals Naval officers? Or is that a different kind of Naval officer because many are enlisted?

@FrontlinesTPUSA I would be embarrassed by this display if I were a leftist.

[Mitigated Disaster @mitigatedisastr]

Rioting outside a women's leadership summit is really retarded. They should announce that they are going to have one of these every weekend just to see if they will show up.

[FRONTLINES TPUSA @FrontlinesTPUSA]

SAN ANTONIO- Police attempt to make an arrest as ANTIFA members swarm one of the entrances to TPUSA’s Women’s Leadership summit.

Multiple masked protesters wearing visible ANTIFA imagery have been hitting and throwing items at police.

Protesters have been chanting “f*ck Erika Kirk” and have been mocking Charlie’s assassination all morning.
