Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The willow is too close to the house.

Let there be snark.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

It’s the corruption, stupid.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

Conservatism: there are some people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

This really is a full service blog.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

Hot air and ill-informed banter

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

This fight is for everything.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

The words do not have to be perfect.

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

I was promised a recession.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the GOP

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

    Excellent. My beau, ablogymously referred to as Doc M, got the Doc part of his name at Stanford. We were out on the streets of Pasadena CA (taking a sick powerbook to the Apple Store for consultation — fitting, in light of your Macish posts). We saw many a person clad in UCLA-wear, and I saw some bearing Notre Dame upon their clothing. Aah, I astutely reasoned. Must be a game today at the Rose Bowl. Doc M was wearing an old Stanford tee shirt, and as we made our way to the Apple store, someone said to him, “Good luck tonight” or some such. We were more concerned about bad RAM sockets than what was happening with Stanford, but your post makes it all clear.

    As a Cal alum, I hate Stanford with a passion. But not nearly as much as I hate the smug bastards at USC. So as much as I hate to say this, I think a “GO TREES” chant is in order.

    Un. Fucking. Believable.

    4th and a cab ride. TD. One foot. One hand snatch catch. FORTY FRIGGIN POINT DOGS.

    Bigger than UM-Appy. Bigger than Louis-Syracuse. With a backup QB, ON THE FUCKING ROAD. Hyperbole doesn’t do it justice.

    Simply unfathomable.

    Southern California is an odd bird in the college football world. They cheat enough to be an SEC school, but because of geography they’re in a league of schools that AFAICT more or less try to be colleges with football teams attached instead of vice versa.

    At any rate, since Vanderbilt stank it up yesterday I’m happy to see Rice, Northwestern and Stanford all win in the same week. I guess I should count BC too but that’s not a surprise. I can’t bring myself to count Notre Dame in all that.
