Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I really should read my own blog.

The lights are all blinking red.

Too little, too late, ftfnyt. fuck all the way off.

Anne Laurie is a fucking hero in so many ways. ~ Betty Cracker

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

Decision time: keep arguing about the last election, or try to win the next one?

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

Dumb motherfuckers cannot understand a consequence that most 4 year olds have fully sorted out.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

President Musk and Trump are both poorly raised, coddled 8 year old boys.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

Hell hath no fury like a farmer bankrupted.

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

Innocent people do not delay justice.

Of course you can have champagne before noon. That’s why orange juice was invented.

The unpunished coup was a training exercise.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

“Alexa, change the president.”

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

So very ready.

The rest of the comments were smacking Boebert like she was a piñata.

No one could have predicted…

    Thanks. Really. That’s exactly the sort of fugly image I want in my head before I go to sleep.

    I got some ad for AT&T phones.

    I assume they already cancelled the pajamas party for lack of attendance.

    I will see your Cheney and Wolfowitz in nighties, and raise you Karl Rove and Antonin Scalia in dampened babydolls, jumping on a trampoline and spanking each others’ bottoms a la “The Man Show”.

    No doubt you guys will be outraged at this questioning of the accuracy of a media outlet that is not Fox News (CNN) and saying they distorted someone’s words.

    So… I’ve always liked OJ more than apple juice or cranberry juice. I’m not sure why, but I think it’s because that in addition to the sweetness it’s also got that undertone of sour in it, that harkens backs to real oranges, the ones that are barely sweet at all but mostly sour? Those are great.

    I think that’s why I tend to get OJ with lots of pulp. The little bit tartness, the sour-sweet taste OJ is wonderful. And all natural squeezed juice you make yourself (especially if you have an orange tree like my Aunt) is incredible.
