Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

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

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

Take your GOP plan out of the witness protection program.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

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

It’s time for the GOP to dust off that post-2012 autopsy, completely ignore it, and light the party on fire again.

White supremacy is terrorism.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

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

Peak wingnut was a lie.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

Everybody saw this coming.

    Not true. Showgirls was 1995. Bound was 1996. Bound is awesomer than Showgirls. Q. E. D.

    “I can see Russia from my vagina.”

    And shouldn’t the quote be more “I can see Oval Shaped rooms from my Vagina!”? (Seeing as how Most rooms would be roundish shaped if you could view them via….Nevermind.)

    I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, Tina Fey saved the republic in 2008. The most effective tool against the tide of teatardness is scorn and ridicule, and if a hot chick wields the tool, we all win.

    No. Sadly they are really not funny at all. Just stupid and plodding. There really is more to comedy than dressing someone in a flag and eyeglasses.

    O/T (as if there were one in the first place), but listening to classic Chicago really, really loud does wonders for clearing ones head from the day’s quota of shit. Gotta wonder where they’d have gone had Kath not killed himself.

    I think Diana Ross and the Supremes are next on the agenda.

    @Gravenstone: 1978 was a tragic and transitional year for Chicago. The year began with an acrimonious split with long-time manager James William Guercio. Then, on January 23, guitarist/singer/songwriter/group co-founder Terry Kath died of an accidental, self-inflicted gunshot wound. One account describes Kath’s drunken last words to guitar tech Don Johnson: “Don’t worry, guys. It isn’t even loaded. See?”[11

    February 9, 2011 at 8:44 pm

    @Mako: Johnson got pigeon holed with Cliffs of Dover. If I want to listen to an instrumental guitarist, I’ll typically go back to what I was listening to in college, various members of the Shrapnel label, especially Tony MacAlpine and Michael Lee Firkins.

    @stuckinred: Yep. Again, I wonder if he could have held off the 80’s Cetera ballads onslaught had he not ended up killing himself. Granted, he was the author of arguably their most famous ballad, Colour My World, so he may have been quite comfortable with the direction Cetera ended up taking them.

    @Omnes Omnibus: The first album is Chicago Transit Authority and, when the Chicago Transit Authority threatened to sue them they changed their name to Chicago. Same with Pacific Gas and Electric, PG&E. People want to talk about guitar players? Not many have heard of Glen Schwartz of the James Gang and PG&E. He found de lawd and has played a tiny joint in Cleveland for about 40 years.

    ABL, you really need to see Gina Gershon’s amazing performance on the Psych episode “American Duos”, where she does a wonderful Paula Abdul (spoiler: it looks a lot like the first video).

    Didn’t anyone see Gershon as the orthodox jewish dry cleaners wife on Curb Your Enthusiasm? She was dynamite even with the scarf on her head.

    @Mako:

    Are the video’s really worth watching

    I found the first one hysterical. The second was a bit too perfect in capturing Palin for me to do more than appreciate Gershon’s talent.

    And here’s another vote for “Bound.” They hired Carol Queen as a consultant to choreograph the sex between Gershon and Tilly. It showed. Those were far more realistic than what you’d see in two dozen girl-girl flesh flicks.

    Also, he didn’t purposely kill himself. He was stupidly & drunkenly fucking around with a handgun & accidently shot himself.

    Funny stuff. And Gina Gershon? In the words of Adam Sandler in the Hannukah song, “that’s a fine lookin’ Jew.” Hot like Chernobyl.

    Loved the Curb Your Enthusiasm episode where she plays the orthodox dry cleaner’s wife. When she and Larry are finally in the hotel room to consummate their fling (Cheryl’s 10th anniversary present to Larry was permission to have a one-night-stand), Larry asks her about getting a stain out of something. Her reply, which will stay with me until I die: “Laundry or fuck, Larry? Laundry or fuck?”
