Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

They’re not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

This blog will pay for itself.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

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

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

All your base are belong to Tunch.

Come on, man.

The willow is too close to the house.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

Fuck the extremist election deniers. What’s money for if not for keeping them out of office?

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

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

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

This really is a full service blog.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

Republicans do not pay their debts.

    Oh, I’m already following ya. And I’m here, in a manner of speaking: http://twitter.com/TaosJohn.

    I use TweetDeck and run a “level one” list with just one column showing. That way I only see you and about a dozen others. Everyone else’s tweets & Faceborg updates appear in the upper right-hand corner of the screen for five seconds and then fade away. I’ve decided that’s the best way to experience this thing anyway. Fade in, fade out, go away. Nice.

    But you might get bored following tweets about Asian American theatre. Well, maybe not AsianMNgrrl….

    find me @MaxytheDog

    Sometimes girlie stuff, a little politics, pop culture and ongoing disappointment in the Buffalo Bills.

    @Woodrow “asim” Jarvis Hill: BTW – you are very handsome.

    That’s not saying that anybody else on this site isn’t, so slow your roll fella’s.

    If you dislike the way google started adding twitter results in that godawful scrolling box on results pages, you can use firefox, greasemonkey, and a userscript some freak wrote to get rid of them.

    John, maybe you should put your twitter link in the “contact” box. Like this:

    Contact
    John: email, twitter
    Tim F: email, twitter
    DougJ: email, twitter
    Anne Laurie: email, twitter

    I’d add the other links but I think the limit is three.

    I’ve had an account for around 6 months… not made one single tweet, yet still have 4 followers.

    Which means, there are 4 insane people on this man’s internet who, quite frankly, scare me.

    bagofmice. Fucking shitballs HTML is a pain on my iPhone. A simple element attribute declaration has you jumping through all three keyboards all the time!

    Yes, I desperately need another addictive, non productive activity that requires me to fuck constantly with an electronic device and all of the administrative crapola things that go with it and the service and the activity itself. I need yet another reason to finger my Blackberry all the frigging time. I need to be even more connected than I am. I need to be connected when I am asleep, or under anesthesia, or taking a dump.

    Otherwise, I might accidentally smell a flower growing by the side of the road, or see a sunset, or read a book. And if that happens, the tourists win.

    Sign me up.

    Already following you @debinmn.

    I seem to follow people from both camps, so am getting whiplash from the “kill the bill!” and “you people are fools!” tweets.

    cdmarine. I used to tweet all the damn time. Even did a music show on Tuesday and Thursday nights. Lately, not so much. Maybe I’ll pick it back up.

    I’m surprised that I was only already following two people here. Maybe there’s less of a Kossack/Balloon Juice crossover than I thought? (I am “hyperbolic pants explosion” at dkos, FYI.)

    My Twitter name is Lysana. But I’m thinking of splitting a few things off of that to another account, as at least half of that one’s traffic is Second Life and personal stuff with the rest being culture and politics.
