Whatdaphuq ever happened to Election DAY? Now they're stretching this shit for weeks, months. Fuck you, fuck dat. Your mail-in vote is either there on Election Day, or it's not. I've stood in long lines to make my vote count ON THE DAY OF THE ELECTION.

Shit or git off the fucking pot. Take pride in going to the poll or shut the fuck up. The fact that any Election Authority would even consider a ballot after Election Day? No, fuck you. You're vote doesn't count and should be recycled in the depths of hell.

Yet, here we are.

If elections last only one day then how are they supposed to find the crates of votes?

He's in Arizona stumping for Kari Lake but I was expecting him to say something. Anything.

He just fired off a tweet like an asshole and it was very disappointing.

Isn't that because they're all probably very busy talking in back channels instead? The impression I got was that it was just as shocking to the powers that be, especially when it became obvious that it wasn't actually sanctioned by anyone other than Garland himself.

Bingo. No one is entirely sure how to use this. Even Trump has only responded in reaction. It's such a massive own goal that determine the -best- way to use it will take a while. And since all they need is to trickle feed responses to keep it in the collective mind, they have plenty of time to plan.

I have a feeling you basically described what automobiles are going to be like after our eras "troubles" settle down. Somewhat lower in tech level, but literal brick shithouses that can be fixed with spare bailing wire and prayer until you reach the next parts depot in our post-global world.

Isn't that just a 1984 Toyota 4x4 truck? Or half of the Toyota vehicles from the 80's-00's?

Because Democrat voters are forgetful and lazy and don't vote consistently--so, they require months-long early voting, unsolicited mail-in ballots being sent to them, ballot drop boxes, ballot harvesting, bus rides to polling stations and no voter ID requirements.

Also, that Fertilizer Plant explosion that happened back in 2013 also also NOT in Waco but a tiny Chech town named West. They have really good kolaches, well worth the stop if you ever end up traveling through.

I had a real Who's on first moment with the fertilizer plant explosion. My brother kept saying it was West, Texas and my repeated response was, "Ok, but what town?"

This is a future I can get behind, as long as it's a diesel.

It's sad how growing up all the Six Flags in the country went from a more affordable way to do a summer vacation with your family and going to different cities to just being hood rat central across the map, a place that should have been the safe hangout for kids in the summer became a place where all the gangs would meet up to fight. When they introduced the gum target for people to throw their gum at while waiting in line even as a kid I realized this is not a cute thing to do, it's a sign of surrender. And gum was still thrown everywhere else.

Tinfoil time, these sudden uptick in shootings, is that a mental health thing or a "defund the police" side effect?

Both but primarily a mental health crisis that has been exacerbated by two years of forced lockdowns, vax, masks etc. Coofmania did to global mental health what an ounce of free crack will do to an addicts recovery, fucked it right up.
Think about it. Every level of society became weaponized against one another and became isolated from everything they care about. People with actual mental illnesses started having to do "online counseling" due to social distancing. People started viewing each other as the enemy based on their mask or vax status, which as we've since confirmed, was always more or less irrelevant to whether they'd catch, develop or transmit covid anyway. Nonverbal kids and anyone with speech deficits suffered. Regular kids who just wanted to not be stressed suffered. Teenagers who need to exercise and direct their energy and stupidity suffered and started getting pushed into doing whatever shit they're doing in secret even more than they were. Adults started feeling pulled between keeping their jobs and keeping their values, between groups of friends etc.

This isn't to say this kind of shit didn't happen before, it did, but the commonality with which we are seeing people with an utter disregard for other lives and a lot of pent up anger and rage points to something that's happened in the last couple years. Gee, what happens when you cover everyone's face and thus depersonalize them and everyone looking at them? People need nonverbal cues to interact and be healthy, it accounts for so much of our communication, and that shit got tossed out the window so that a bunch of Karens and Soylings could feel protected by their face diapers.
