Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

People are weird.

Let there be snark.

“Loving your country does not mean lying about its history.”

Today in our ongoing national embarrassment…

Speaker Mike Johnson is a vile traitor to the House and the Constitution.

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

No one could have predicted…

You passed on an opportunity to be offended? What are you even doing here?

Those who are easily outraged are easily manipulated.

Oppose, oppose, oppose. do not congratulate. this is not business as usual.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

How any woman could possibly vote for this smug smarmy piece of misogynistic crap is beyond understanding.

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

“Until such time as the world ends, we will act as though it intends to spin on.”

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Not rolling over. fuck you, make me.

“But what about the lurkers?”

This must be what justice looks like, not vengeful, just peaceful exuberance.

“Perhaps I should have considered other options.” (head-desk)

… gradually, and then suddenly.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.
