Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

I have other things to bitch about but those will have to wait.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

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

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

This is dead girl, live boy, a goat, two wetsuits and a dildo territory.  oh, and pink furry handcuffs.

They were going to turn on one another at some point. It was inevitable.

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

I would gladly pay you tuesday for a hamburger today.

Stay strong, because they are weak.

When we show up, we win.

… gradually, and then suddenly.

The National Guard is not Batman.

They punch you in the face and then start crying because their fist hurts.

People are weird.

The “burn-it-down” people are good with that until they become part of the kindling.

Come on, man.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

Washington Post Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.

Every one of the “Roberts Six” lied to get on the court.

Dear Washington Post, you are the darkness now.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

Republicans in disarray!

    Happy New Year to you too, John! (And to Tim as well, and to all other fellow posters.)

    Any resolutions, or have you resolved to not do that?

    Don’t worry all the resolutions were traded a few days ago by necessity.

    Happy New Year. Mr. Furious, your blog needs updating.

    Wow. Somebody noticed. Going hard at my job search over the last couple weeks. Couldn’t, in good conscience, “waste” time blogging.

    Who out there’s got a magazine that needs an art director…?
