Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

Hey Washington Post, “Democracy Dies in Darkness” is supposed to be a warning, not a mission statement.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

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

The media handbook says “controversial” is the most negative description that can be used for a Republican.

The current Supreme Court is a rogue court. Very dangerous.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

It’s a new day. Light all those Biden polls of young people on fire and throw away the ashes.

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

When we show up, we win.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

This blog will pay for itself.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

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

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

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

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

These days, even the boring Republicans are nuts.

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

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

Fight them, without becoming them!

Ceviche

In case you are wondering, the ceviche came out great. I used:

Sea scallops
Shrimp
Red Snapper
Mango
Peach
Green and Red pepper
Jalapeno
Roma tomatoes
Limes
Lemons
Cilantro
Sea salt and fresh ground pepper.

I whipped it all up, let it cook in the fridge all afternoon, and placed in a bowl lined with greens and topped with sliced avocado.

And I washed it down with Laphroiag.

It was as tasty as it was pretty. If I don’t post tomorrow, it is because I have dropped dead from food poisoning.

    Laphroiag?! I forgive you for any wayward political tendancies on the spot. I think I deserve a bottle for being magnanimous. I’ll let you know where to send it. Cerviche…meh.

    I *heart* Laphroiag. One of my profs turned me on to it years ago. Best in the world, IMHO.

    Don’t worry a bit about food poisoning… the Laphroiag would kill any of that before it had a chance…

    Good choice of drink.

    My Scotch gene kicked in when I turned thirty, and my Dad introduced me to Laphroiag. My husband and I get a welcome shot of it when we walk into my Dad’s house for a visit. Scottish tradition. I love the auld ways.

    Sounds great. Other options to mix and match (I make it for my wife all the time, but it’s not a favorite of mine):

    sour orange
    strawberries (seriously)
    conch (blanch for 60 seconds in habenero water and slice thin)
    blackened scallops (not traditional, but adds a nice texture)
    sweet lemon
    serranos (jalepenos may add too much “green” flavor instead of heat)

    Ceviche is a great dish to make if you can find people that will eat it. As far as food poisoning, the fish was (mostly) fresh and you parboiled the shrimp, right?
