Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Giving up is unforgivable.

Live so that if you miss a day of work people aren’t hoping you’re dead.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

I would try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

Jesus watching the most hateful people claiming to be his followers

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

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

I like political parties that aren’t owned by foreign adversaries.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Do we throw up our hands or do we roll up our sleeves? (hint, door #2)

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

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

Trumpflation is an intolerable hardship for every American, and it’s Trump’s fault.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

One lie, alone, tears the fabric of reality.

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

He really is that stupid.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

    Hmm. And yesterday was the anniversary of some sort of [prepares to give computer whizzes fits] major improvement to modems.

    PUPPIES

    If you haven’t considered them, then you should. I know you have puppies in your hood, but not like these PUPPIES.

    Ok, they have worms. Taken care of.

    Okay, they are silly. Not much I can do about that.

    This is an open thread, no?
