Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

As long as McCarthy is Speaker, the House will never be in order.

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

No Justins, No Peace

An unpunished coup is a training exercise.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

The willow is too close to the house.

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

“I never thought they’d lock HIM up,” sobbed a distraught member of the Lock Her Up Party.

There’s always a light at the end of the frog.

Fight them, without becoming them!

‘Museums aren’t America’s attic for its racist shit.’

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Republicans got rid McCarthy. Democrats chose not to save him.

This fight is for everything.

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

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

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

Joe Lieberman disappointingly reemerged to remind us that he’s still alive.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

My blog is worth $578,653.50.
How much is your blog worth?

I have no idea how that was calculated (h/t C&L).

    Hmm. I have no idea how the thing calculates. I ran BJ and Dkos for comparison; DKos priced about at about 10x BJ.

    DKos the other day reported well over a million page views a day, IIRC. Now as much as I appreciate (believe it or not) BJ, it ain’t gettin’ 100k pageviews a day, is it?

    Doing these things is a lot like figuring out what I am worth dead, if my spouse collected on everything she’d have coming to her. It all seems very abstract ……….

    (why is she looking at me that way ??)

    Perhaps the value of a blog is calculated by the quantity of comments posted in reply to the articles left by its editor?

    In which case Rick Moran’s “Rightwing Nuthouse” would be worth about .15 cents.

    Get’s traffic to his google ads with that little app. Thats about it.

    All three of my blogs are worth $0.

    Meanwhile, HappyFunPundit.com, the discontinued humor blog which has been gone for at least a year now, still has enough dead links in people blogrolls to be worth skywards of $600K.

    Kind of like Jimi Hendrix having earned more each year since he died than I’ll earn in my entire life. >:^/

    Folks, it’s all explained right here:

    http://www.tnl.net/blog/entry/Doing_the_numbers_on_the_AOL-WeblogsInc_deal

    Basically, the value of one’s blog is based on the number of incoming links from Technorati, based on the value of about $540/link based on the numbers being kicked around for the AOL/Weblogs Inc deal. Full disclosure – I write for Autoblog, but I have no idea if the price tag for Weblogs Inc. that’s floating around is accurate.

    There’s a bug somewhere. My weblog has plenty of links Technorati knows about yet my weblog is worth zilch.
