The Farce of Early Voting

I received this sample ballot in the mail yesterday:

Can anybody explain this to me?

Also, this is one of the many reasons why early voting that’s done months in advance and by mail is a horrible idea. We should all be united in opposing it. We are being robbed and we just bat our eyelashes and feel abjectly grateful for the “convenience.”

The Primacy of Words

Yes, let’s declare this, get Taiwan invaded, and then stand vapidly by as Taiwan gets destroyed while we declare that we stand with Taiwan and we are with them to the end. Let’s do that because it hasn’t been done before.

Please observe how this “words instead of actions and consequences to others be damned” is the policy of both parties in the US. The belief in the primacy of words has won a resounding victory.

Cognitive Dissonance in California

A ballot measure that will increase the penalties for low-level thefts and drug possession has overwhelming support from California voters, according to a new study from the Public Policy Institute of California.

This measure aims to roll back the legalization of many categories of crime introduced by Kamala Harris a decade ago. California voters want to put an end to the crime wave Kamala unleashed on them. But they will also come out in droves to vote for her as president. That there might be a bit of a contradiction here escaped their notice entirely.

Different Physiology

Low-libido and/or low-fertility people love to lecture their high-libido and/or high-fertility brothers and sisters.

Yes, you don’t understand. Because your physiology is different. It’s not a great moral achievement. It’s simply how nature made you.

By the way, low-fertility and low-libido are not insults. They are statements of physiological fact. I’m clearly low-fertility myself, for example. It’s not a source of shame or pride. It just is.

I expected better from Matt Walsh whose whole thing is that you can’t choose whether you are a man or a woman.

This is not to say that I champion infidelity. I absolutely don’t. But I understand that avoiding infidelity is enormously easier for some people than others.

Anti-appeasement

This is all we ask for:

All we want is to be able to destroy Russian ammunition depots and military airfields before they get on the way to kill people. That’s all. The Biden-Harris administration has been adamantly opposed to this because WWIII.

As everybody can see, World War 3 didn’t begin as a result of this ammunition depots being destroyed. Every time Putin gets hit in the face, he crawls away and whimpers. Every time, he scores a win, he becomes more aggressive.

Appeasement doesn’t work. These people understand only brute force.

Too Much Wife

Every time I mention how bizarre this is, people tell me that it’s a hallowed American tradition to have wives insert themselves into the political process. I still find it weird and off-putting that a Cabinet meeting is turned into a circus to accommodate the delusions of grandeur of an unelected, uninteresting person.

It wouldn’t occur to me to have my husband open one of my lectures. And a lecture is a lot more serious than a Cabinet meeting.

It’s insulting to inflict wives and girlfriends on people who are at work. Husbands and boyfriends, too, but women don’t do that kind of thing nearly as often as men.

Brain Disease

Oprah is a billionaire who is using her media reach to support her preferred candidate in the election. This is exactly what Elon Musk is doing. Either both are despicable for doing it, or neither is.

Partisanship is a brain disease.

Not Word Soup

Kamala is known for her word soup but this particular statement is great. She doesn’t mean any of it and has spent a lifetime trying to achieve the exact opposite but the statement itself is clear and good. There were moments in the program where Kamala did the word soup thing but this isn’t one of them.

Do people who make such posts count on nobody listening to the actual video?

A P. Diddy Question

Can somebody explain why P Diddy was arrested? I don’t need links. I read the links. And I still have no idea what the crimes were. Is it hiring prostitutes for others? Or what? “Sex trafficking” stands for pimping because pimping is now a bad word, or something, and needs a synonym. So did he hire the prostitutes? Or the opposite? Did he rent them or rent them out?

Journalism has become complete crap because articles go on and on but nothing is ever explained. I read that he “manipulated, lured and allegedly wielded his power to persuade” women to have sex. None of this sounds criminal. Then I read time and again that he had a thousand bottles of baby oil. Which also isn’t a crime.

I’m not a fan or anything. I have zero interest in defending this guy. I simply want to understand what happened.

Comment Section Update

Folks, I can’t keep track of all the Anonymouses any more, especially when people can’t be bothered to put a random name or initial to help us identify who said what. Please try to comment and tell me if it’s gotten better or worse.

P.S. When it says “enter an email”, it can be a fake email, nobody cares. Just something to keep track of who said what because it’s gotten very confusing.
