Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

Welcome to day five of every-bit-as-bad-as-you-thought-it-would-be.

Republicans cannot even be trusted with their own money.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

President Musk and Trump are both poorly raised, coddled 8 year old boys.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

You’re just a puppy masquerading as an old coot.

Human rights are not a matter of opinion!

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

Disagreements are healthy; personal attacks are not.

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

The most dangerous place for a black man in America is in a white man’s imagination.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

These are not very smart people, and things got out of hand.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

Giving in to doom is how we fail to fight for ourselves & one another.

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

If rights aren’t universal, they are privilege, not rights.

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

I am Going to Get an Earful For This

I know it is wrong.

I know I would be outraged if Tom Cruise were in a film naked with a ten year old girl.

I know this is sick.

But how come I keep thinking, “Lucky bastard?”

Flame away.

    I’m thinking this was one of my fantasies, but that I’d have been absolutely terrified if it came true. Petrified, even.

    I think the psychological term for it is projection – the attribution of one’s own ideas, feelings, or attitudes to other people or to objects.

    I’m not at all bothered by this. It’s acting. Pretty Baby, baby.

    I shamefully share John Cole’s reaction. Nicole Kidman is so goddamn hot.

    Just another example of the Great Truth that…men and women (even as boy and girls) are different.
    Anyway, films about older women with underage boys have always gotten a pass (Murmurs of the Heart, anyone?). Outrage is generally reserved for Lolita-type films.
