Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

There are times when telling just part of the truth is effectively a lie.

American history and black history cannot be separated.

Fight for a just cause, love your fellow man, live a good life.

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

We still have time to mess this up!

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

This is dead girl, live boy, a goat, two wetsuits and a dildo territory.  oh, and pink furry handcuffs.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

So many bastards, so little time.

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

You are either for trump or for democracy. Pick one.

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

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

You know it’s bad when the Project 2025 people have to create training videos on “How To Be Normal”.

I’m starting to think Jesus may have made a mistake saving people with no questions asked.

“Loving your country does not mean lying about its history.”

Dear elected officials: Trump is temporary, dishonor is forever.

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

If ‘weird’ was the finish line, they ran through the tape and kept running.

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

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

The most dangerous place for a black man in America is in a white man’s imagination.

Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

    @Violet:

    Violet, that was quite lovely, too. Some fine pickin’ and singing.

    I love this place for so many things, but I really love the music and books and movie threads because I always learn something new.

    @Violet: This has a former member of Chanticleer and is an apologia to Sister Sarah. Plus it’s beautifully uncluttered.

    I’m finding it hard to stop listening to the new UK band Alt-J. If your memories of the late ’90s include The Beta Band, you’ll find much to like here.
