Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

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

This fight is for everything.

Putin dreamed of ending NATO, and now it’s Finnish-ed.

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

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

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

Ah, the different things are different argument.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

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

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

Innocent people don’t delay justice.

Come on, man.

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

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

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

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

Abusing 8-Year-Olds and Cooch Pistols

On today’s #TWiBRadio, apparently Lindsey Graham is terrified of the zombie apocalypse, arresting grade school kids is now a trend, and we discover that no one has ever Googled “cooch pistol.”

Oh yeah, and we also go to that whole gun-in-the-vagina thing …

I don’t think we really need to explain any further.

And this morning on #amTWiB, it’s Oreo’s 101st anniversary so the #MorningCrew took the opportunity to discuss Hydrox cookies, how Mother Teresa isn’t so saintly, and Los Angeles plans to be coal-free by 2025.

    No one should abuse a cooch pistol, but 8 year olds are usually asking for it.

    Can you shut off the auto-start of that video?

    I’ve turned that video off three times now, and its keeps starting again while I’m reading the rest of the front page.

    It’s fucking annoying.

    Aaand there it fucking goes again.

    Please fix it.

    @JGabriel: It’s even worse on my Crackberry. It will not run just one, but both, and sometimes however many streams are present on the front page. I’m about ready to request Elon just post links to the podcasts.

    I can’t help it; every time I see “TWiB”, I hear the voice of Mel Allen.

    For the FSM’s sake, kill the autoplay! I had to switch from Chrome to Firefox to read the page. Pause button and mute won’t work.

    You’re a better, and more patient, man than I, Gunga Din — although I’m not entirely clear on what makes Gunga Din the model, the paradigm as it were, of better men.

    Speaking of manliness, does anyone remember that book from the early 80s called Real Men Don’t Eat Quiche?

    I don’t know why I thought of that today, but I did, and it made me wonder, “What was up with that? Why did the author think quiche was unmanly? No, I mean, seriously, a Quiche Lorraine is eggs, bacon, cheese, and pie crust. What’s more macho than eggs, bacon, cheese, and pie crust, except maybe venison that you choked to death with your bear hands while it gored your side with its antlers leaving a gaping sucking wound in your side like the Fisher King’s, and/or maybe broiled steak? By which I mean the broiled steak being maybe macho, not maybe like a sucking wound in your side, though I suppose the steak maybe would be like that from the steer’s point of view.”

    Jesus, I thougt that paragraph would never end. I was getting afraid that it would spin around in a circle forever, like a drunk in cul de sac.

    Anyway, yeah, that auto-start is fucking annoying.

    That’s very good news. There are some depravities that even our degraded discourse had never contemplated. Until now.

    I have to admit, I loved the Hydrox cookies over the Oreos. To me the Hydrox cookies had a better flavour.

    Ok, is there some kind of sub-genre of trap music that Elon plays? Because the only way of finding that kind of epic synth has left me stuck on dubstep.net for an hour.

    Also, re: Video Auto-Start, you know, some of us are often running downloads in the background, and we really don’t want videos auto-starting and competing for bandwidth with our downloads.

    That’s kind of intrusive website behavior people associate with porn sites and Fox News propaganda.

    Ha, + nothing. Though there was a certain amount, several days worth, of insomnia fatigue going on there …
