Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

She burned that motherfucker down, and I am so here for it. Thank you, Caroline Kennedy.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

A fool as well as an oath-breaker.

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

There are some who say that there are too many strawmen arguments on this blog.

Democracy cannot function without a free press.

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

“woke” is the new caravan.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

Dear elected officials: Trump is temporary, dishonor is forever.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

So fucking stupid, and still doing a tremendous amount of damage.

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

Their shamelessness is their super power.

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

If America since Jan 2025 hasn’t broken your heart, you haven’t loved her enough.

If you can’t control your emotions, someone else will.

Humiliatingly small and eclipsed by the derision of millions.

Second rate reporter says what?

We will not go back.

People are complicated. Love is not.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

I guess I might be

I guess I might be a conservative after all. How else can I explain the visceral reaction I had when I heard that the Wall Street Journal was re-designing its layout- particularly without seeing the re-design? I don’t care if it is better- it is different, damnit.
