Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

Not rolling over. fuck you, make me.

So many bastards, so little time.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

Polls are now a reliable indicator of what corporate Republicans want us to think.

It is possible to do the right thing without the promise of a cookie.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

America is going up in flames. The NYTimes fawns over MAGA celebrities. No longer a real newspaper.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

Fight them, without becoming them!

Republicans don’t lie to be believed, they lie to be repeated.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

Their boy Ron is an empty plastic cup that will never know pudding.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

If you cannot answer whether trump lost the 2020 election, you are unfit for office.

Hell hath no fury like a farmer bankrupted.

It’s a good piece. click on over. but then come back!!

… pundit janitors mopping up after the gop

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

If you voted for Trump, you don’t get to speak about ethics, morals, or rule of law.

People are weird.

Not much to post today,

Not much to post today, but there is this:

A woman whose two huge dogs mauled a neighbor to death in a San Francisco apartment building was convicted of murder and manslaughter Thursday. Her husband was found guilty of manslaughter.

Good, I hope both of them spend a long time rotting in jail cells, with nothing to do but avoid prison rape and filling out legal briefs for their fellow felon roommates. They are scum, and they deserve everything they got from the jury and more.

Those people had those dogs, which were loaded weapons- cocked and ready to go off on anyone or anything, and they had no regard for any of their fellow citizens. Those dogs were known to go off if they smelled too much of naturally occurring human hormones in the air.

Before someone makes a specious and stupid argument about my loaded weapon analogy, there is no connection between gun ownership and these dogs as ‘loaded weapons.’ If you think so, tell me the last time you rifle or your pistol took a crap on the living room floor. These were living, breathing killing machines, and the people who owned them had a willful and reckless disregard for human life and anything other than their own narrow desires. If you want to make the dog as loaded weapon/anti-gun argument, the only analogy that would be comparable to owning those two dogs would be for someone to litter a grade school playground with loaded AK-47’s. Then the analogy might hold- but that would be anathema to responsible gun ownership, as any gun owner would tell you.

At any rate. So long. You couldn’t keep your vicious animals caged, so now you get to spend a considerable chunk of your life behind bars. Too bad they won’t require you to eat out of a big bowl like the animals that you are. My only regret is the jury couldn’t find your defense attorney guilty of being a Grade-A bitch for torturing the victim’s partner throughout the trial.
