Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Trump should be leading, not lying.

Giving in to doom is how authoritarians win.

How stupid are these people?

Fucking consultants! (of the political variety)

Every reporter and pundit should have to declare if they ever vacationed with a billionaire.

Washington Post Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

The arc of the moral universe does not bend itself. it is up to us to bend it.

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you do not.

I am pretty sure these ‘journalists’ were not always such a bootlicking sycophants.

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.

All hail the time of the bunny!

He really is that stupid.

We are learning that “working class” means “white” for way too many people.

Stamping your little feets and demanding that they see how important you are? Not working anymore.

Text STOP to opt out of updates on war plans.

Petty moves from a petty man.

A fool as well as an oath-breaker.

The words do not have to be perfect.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

My beloved Steelers have beaten

My beloved Steelers have beaten the despised Browns, 28-7, finishing the regular season with a 13-3 record. A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon, indeed.

After the game, several of the talking heads on either FOX or CBS seemed overly eager to state repeatedly that the “Steelers are backing into the playoffs, whatever the hell that means. I guess homefield advantage, top-seeding in the playoffs, and a first round-bye makes them slouches.

Predictably, I commenced screaming at the idiot box, volunteering loudly and obnoxiously to show them my backside, since they seem to be so fond of alluding to the Steelers backing into things. No takers, as of yet.

Time to catch up on some reading, and then for tonight’s movie, which I have not yet chosen.
