Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

Joe Lieberman disappointingly reemerged to remind us that he’s still alive.

White supremacy is terrorism.

Don’t expect peaches from an apple tree.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

Second rate reporter says what?

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

After roe, women are no longer free.

Prediction: the GOP will rethink its strategy of boycotting future committees.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Not all heroes wear capes.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

Optimism opens the door to great things.

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

    This is my favorite cat-on-treadmill video ever. This cat has obviously been reading Gandhi.

    Favorite comment:

    Later that night, after this video was uploaded, that cat killed them both in their sleep.

    kittens! I love cats. I can see one of my three doing that. The other one would run and hide and the third would just bitch about it.

    Lazy cat was funny, but I still have a soft spot for November. (And yes, I have posted this here before.)

    I’m in a cat depression funk these days, I’m afraid. I had a 15 year old cat die of a stroke on the way to the vet 2 weeks ago, and the following week a snagged claw on another turned into a leukemia diagnosis that likely means a 2-4 year life span for him and the other 3 I have left.
    With that, I cannot emphasize enough the importance to keep your kitties indoors (cat leukemia is apparently some kind of super-AIDS that spreads via waterdishes and grooming) or vaccinated if you want to take the risk associated with the side effects.

    Aww! My favorite animal kingdom expression is the “ears flipped back in annoyance” of housecats.

    Sorry to hear about your friens, Keith (

    A video with true crossover appeal — something both cat lovers and stoners can appreciate. Er, so the stoners tell me.

    Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) is rough. One of my cats died very young from it, but the other is going strong after 4 years. You have to be very careful with other illnesses because FeLV cats are very immuno-compromised. For example, corticosteroids are a no-no, so we had to treat some of my cat’s breathing problems with bronchiodialators alone. But FeLV cats can live happily for a long time.
