Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

This fight is for everything.

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

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

Glad to see john eastman going through some things.

White supremacy is terrorism.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you don’t.

Roe isn’t about choice, it’s about freedom.

Even though I know this is a bad idea, I’m off to do it anyway!

Shut up, hissy kitty!

You cannot shame the shameless.

If West Virginia and San Francisco had a love child.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

When you’re in more danger from the IDF than from Russian shelling, that’s really bad.

Bad news for Ron DeSantis is great news for America.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

The gop couldn’t organize an orgy in a whorehouse with a fist full of 50s.

I was confident that someone would point it out and thought why not me.

In case you were wondering. Although I am thinking if I create a post or two discussing hot gay ass sex, fisting, gloryholes, and what not to try and see if we can pump up the rating a bit. Maybe discussing marijuana, cocaine, heroin, sodomy, and oral sex will push it up to X.

*** Update ***

Still an R. Let’s try the seven dirty words.

“Shit, piss, fuck, cunt, cocksucker, motherfucker and tits.”

*** Update ***

Mission Accomplished!

    Sheesh. My blog has an NC-17 rating from one single post, my 2006 burning man review.

    Why is “death” or “dead” words that get your rating up beyond what a 16-year-old should be exposed to? Aren’t 40 million children uninsured? They are closer to death than I’d like to think.

    Tim, I read part of your Burning Man review. Absolutely hilarious. This part made me practically spew coffee:

    As the Burning Man burns, both his arms eventually fall to his side. Curiously, his left arm dropped first, leaving his right arm raised in a straight-armed Nazi salute. At that moment, a spontaneous cheer went up a thousand right arms were raised as one over the smoky playa. Heil hippie! No shit, I have it on film.

    John,

    I know you currently don’t care for my point of view. But, what is your point here? Do you not have enough and are looking for more? I know the answer! You really don’t need to give the movie industry a rating, just watch primetime commercial sales(pencils, underwear,sport drinks, hell, even garden tools) they all elude to sex. We have allowed this sort of perversion to take place since, “In Living Color” hit the market. Our government could have put an end to it then. Being politically correctness was the option, we, as a nation, looked over that and said okay. As of today, anything goes.

    How has our current culture effected you personally? How has In Living Color impacted your own personal circumstances?

    Our current culture hasn’t effected me either negatively or positively. I am a tolerant person who doesn’t believe it’s my business to tell other people how to live their lives, and I really detest self-righteousness in those who can’t seem to keep their nose out of other people’s business. So, tell me, how exactly has your life been effected? I’d like examples, please.

    Being politically correctness was the option, we, as a nation, looked over that and said okay. As of today, anything goes we are still free to speak as we see fit and mostly tell the government, and the crybabies who think they need to protect us from our own language, to go fuck themselves very much.

    I didn’t fix the really lousy grammatical construction, but I took care of the content.

    Kinda like this,

    A new era of TV, not cable or satellite. We always complain about censor when it involves children and TV. Even though the child watches a movie, he or she is subject to the commercials. There are not many individual product commercials today that don’t deal in some way with fame or sex. Yeah, we can speak freely, we can confirm or oppose positions. In Living Color, would never have been on open air TV, if it were a white program. (don’t come back) with a racial thing to me, I will bury you and your arguement. Thats not me! SORRY

    first of all, you really aren’t making any sense in the way you are describing this, and unless you are a child, you are not telling me how this personally effects YOU.

    What has the current culture done to YOU exactly?

  30. 30.

    Rome Again

    September 2, 2007 at 7:32 pm

    What exactly is it about In Living Color that would have prevented it from being aired?

    What is it about commercials that you have such a problem with? Sexual suggestion? Sex sells, perhaps you shouldn’t buy anything that is sold on television if you don’t want to get caught up in that ploy. What is it about sexual suggestion on television that bothers you? We are all sexual beings to one degree or another, and I would venture a guess that humanity was much more sexual before religion got a hold of our behavior and played their mind game that made us feel guilty about sexual pleasure. Study the animal world, they have no guilt, and that is what we were meant to be. I would suggest religious piety is what ruined the natural way of things. You fall into the trap of believing repression is good because society says it’s good. You follow the way of conventional thinking, I do not. I would rather be an uninhibited animal with sexual freedom than to be a repressed and pious individual.

    It’s your own guilt at being a sexual mammal who should be free to be sexual that makes you want to change others behavior. Now, am I suggesting that child molesters should be free to do as they wish or such? No, I am not – children should not be subject to sexual expectations, but neither should they be totally censored from learning about love and sex from their culture. The culture you want them to grow up in would give them no information at all, and would only teach them that sex is wrong and dirty.

    Children learn about sex in many different places, and in your presence they would learn that sex is bad and should be repressed. You are doing no favors by believing that repression is a good thing. Get off your pious high horse and recognize that piety is the enemy of natural behavior.

    All you need for an NC-17 is multiple references to Dick Cheney.

    Which actually makes a lot of sense.

    You do realize that BM isn’t particularly hippie oriented, as evidenced by the Thunderdome, where people fight mad max style int a large dome suspended by bungees.

    There is a lot of ironic jokes played the whole time, like people busting out cones and blocking off the Esplenade and claiming that there is construction work going on, but because they are union the workers are all drinking beer while getting in everyone’s way.

    Also, my friends did a camp where they played this little hardcore track “I wanna be a hippie, so I can get stoned” over 80 times in a row. One camp nearby packed up and moved, and finally a riot ensued and they took the mp3 player. Fortunately there was a CD and a second riot formed and the took the speakers.

    Everything was returned later, but it was funny as hell to have a hippie riot invading a clown camp to stop playing a cetain song.

    And if you think that an 80 foot replica of Duchamp’s urinal or a Life Sized Mousetrap game are crappy art, or the chandelier that fell out of the sky and was electrocuting people that touched it, then you just don’t appreciate art.

    Sure, in a city of 40,000 people you get all kinds, from your earnest hippie picking up cigarette butts off of the playa to your super-jaded DPW crew bemanding all of your drugs and booze.

    Nut the point is you come to do something you will never see anywhere else in the world, Like a human sized hampster wheel that when ran caused a 20 foot sculpture to pick its nose.

    The last time I went was to help burn down the temple David Best made as a memorial to my friends that were shot in the Seattle Capitol Hill Massacre.

    It’s an event that is both sill frivolous and absurd, yet entirely temporary, as it is the third largest city in Nevada for one week only. However you have so much more freedom there that you can walk around naked with a flamethrower and chant celtic songs if you want. High tech engineering in adverse conditions and it has to be built on site. When you stand back and watch a steampunk powered vehicle drive by a fire breahthing dragon, or stand 1/4 of a mile away from a dance stage and watch as a series of strobe lights flash when they hear the beat, efectively visualizing the soundwave as it travels, you have to be amazed.

    The focus of your rant seems to be “These aren’t the hippies you’re looking for”. Well guess what tim, it’s not 1960 any more either.
