Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you do not.

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty. ~Thomas Jefferson

The media handbook says “controversial” is the most negative description that can be used for a Republican.

We can’t confuse what’s necessary to win elections with the policies that we want to implement when we do.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

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

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

This country desperately needs a functioning fourth estate.

One lie, alone, tears the fabric of reality.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

Trump should be leading, not lying.

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

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

Those who are easily outraged are easily manipulated.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

When you’re in more danger from the IDF than from Russian shelling, that’s really bad.

Their boy Ron is an empty plastic cup that will never know pudding.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

It’s a good piece. click on over. but then come back!!

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

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

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

If I remember correctly, it’s May 12 in Just Some Fuckhead’s timezone now, and he mentioned the natal anniversary last evening.

Okay, I’ve been looking for an opportunity to use this particular clip, but seriously: Best wishes and many happy returns to an internet mensch.

    Speaking of FYWP, does anyone know why some of the posts here have these strange grey boxes in them, and some don’t? The posts were all created the same way.

    @The prophet Nostradumbass: According to the html, those are styled as footers where the other’s aren’t.

    @skjellyfetti: Happy Birthday skjellyfetti – wherever you are.

    And also to JSF, who always makes me laugh though often in a totally inappropriate way. You big lug.

    And thank gawd the site looks normal again. I got agita from the whiplash changes.

    @Yatsuno: Me too. Drained, that is. Had me worried for a while, but it appears someone was paying attention to all our bitching!

    Can’t wait for the Cole post telling us all to fuck off for being whiny ass titty babies :)

    @The prophet Nostradumbass: If nothing else, learning to read basic html is defensive and enlightening in seeing all the odd things that automated programs seem to throw into it. Some output makes me dispair in belief in the laws of cause and effect, and I can only cope with the toddler tags.

    Thank you. John has been driving me crazy asking me what I want for my birthday. I finally told him Newsmax headlines. Disappointed again.

    Serif font in headlines?

    Happy Birthday, young Fuckhead.

    I wish we’d find out General Stuck is OK as a gift to us all.

    Watching “Up with Steve Kornacki.” He’s got a segment on “Why Sanford Won.”

    It ain’t God’s Grace that done it.

    Happy birthday to JSF and skjellufetti. Don’t fight over the loot.

    Why is Yutsano Yatsuno now? I hope there’s a good story.

    @Shortstop:

    He was having a problem where some commenters’ replies to “Yutsano” were inexplicably disappearing (*cough* FYWP *cough*). Fixed it with the nym change. Anything would have worked, but “Yatsuno” is kind of elegant. I refuse to call him “Yatsy,” though.

    @Steeplejack: Thanks, but I would call that story only fair. Would you mind adding some bone-shaking sex, outstanding recipes and season-changing sports moments, and resubmitting?

    @Suzanne:

    BTW, has anyone solved the mystery of what happened to Stuck yet?

    It’s obvious at this point that only two people know for sure what happened, and they ain’t talking. From all observable facts though, clearly Annie killed him when she surprised Stuck and AWS in bed together.
    What AWS promised her to keep from killing him as well is a subject that is simply too horrible to contemplate.
    And now the comment she made explaining exactly what happened has also vanished into the ether. So now we’ll probably never know.

    Happy birthday JSF, my favorite stalker.

    Hmmm, so the blog seems to have righted itself, which makes last night’s entire post read like we were all on psychotropics.

    Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

    Happy birthday JSF – the commenter who gives new meaning to the term “dark humor.” I find myself chuckling more than an old lady should at your stuff.

    @The prophet Nostradumbass: I was agreeing with you, but will remember not to in order not to confuse the issue at hand.
