Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

“The defense has a certain level of trust in defendant that the government does not.”

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

Text STOP to opt out of updates on war plans.

The world has changed, and neither one recognizes it.

The willow is too close to the house.

Hey Washington Post, “Democracy Dies in Darkness” was supposed to be a warning, not a mission statement.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

Hell hath no fury like a farmer bankrupted.

“They all knew.”

We know you aren’t a Democrat but since you seem confused let me help you.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

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

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

Oppose, oppose, oppose. do not congratulate. this is not business as usual.

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

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

Republicans in disarray!

My right to basic bodily autonomy is not on the table. that’s the new deal.

“Perhaps I should have considered other options.” (head-desk)

The lights are all blinking red.

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

Find someone who loves you the way trump and maga love traitors.

    Charlton Heston says: “Morgan Freeman can have my “Voice of God” title when he pries it from my cold, dead… oh, right. Nevermind. You do know that Soylent Green is people, right?”

    Call me sentimental, but I still tear up every time I see something like this. In my short lifetime alone I’ve gone from being villified in school and having it be a big f*ing deal every time some talk show host came out of the closet to being able to marry my wife like anyone else. And we’ve got the Big Guy on our side now? Sweet ;-)

    It has long been alleged that Charlton Heston (by DeMille’s biographer for one, and in 2004 by Heston himself for the release of the DVD) provided the Voice of God in “The Ten Commandments”.

    That was a good ad on HRC’s part even without the brilliant move of asking Morgan Freeman to do the voiceover.
