Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The revolution will be supervised.

If a good thing happens for a bad reason, it’s still a good thing.

Not rolling over. fuck you, make me.

Bad people in a position to do bad things will do bad things because they are bad people. End of story.

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

In my day, never was longer.

The republican speaker is a slippery little devil.

So many bastards, so little time.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

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

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

Anne Laurie is a fucking hero in so many ways. ~ Betty Cracker

It’s all just conspiracy shit beamed down from the mothership.

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

No Kings: Americans standing in the way of bad history saying “Oh, Fuck No!”

Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls 2 years from now.

Disappointing to see gov. newsom with his finger to the wind.

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

Compromise? There is no middle ground between a firefighter and an arsonist.

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

Conservatism: there are people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

President Musk and Trump are both poorly raised, coddled 8 year old boys.

Tunch has been on my tip ALL…NIGHT…LONG… because after the Pens win last night I gave Rosie and Lily left over steak and Tunch some tuna to celebrate the Pens win.

Now, he wants more tuna, and went so far as to knock his food bowl with kibble off the table so both dogs could eat it. BECAUSE IT WAS NOT TUNA.

Fat bastard.

    When Tunch does it, it is not illegal.

    According to my wife, Tunch will most definitely starve unless you get him some TUNA NOW. Yeah, she’s a sucker. She would call him a fat bastard on the way to get the tuna though.

    I used to live with a large pompous tabby cat. One Thanksgiving, a friend of ours came over and made oyster stuffing, and he gave a piece of oyster to the cat.

    That cat refused to eat anything except more oysters. He sat next to his food bowl in the kitchen, waiting for it to fill with oysters, for the next four days before he finally gave in and ate his usual kibble. And I don’t think he ever quite forgave us.

    You should stop feeding the cat for six months so it can get normal sized again.

    Once food becomes an issue, its always an issue. Same on this end only when the cat complains I’ll put it the laundry room with a bowl of water and the litterbox. I already fed her. I told her who does she think she is, Tunch?

    This is the second time you have said Tunch was on your “tip.” The first time I assumed that it was an autocorrect mistake for lap, but now . . .

    Cole. It’s a sexual reference you fat piece of shit. “On my tip” means someone sexually aggressive on you.

    @Steeplejack: I also noticed he used that expression twice. I figured it was a West Virginia phrase for someone being on your ass, or something that I really shouldn’t bring up until Cole was emotionally prepared to talk about his tip and why Tunch seems to be on it.

    OK, since this is an open thread about season finales, I will bring it up again: John Hurt is an awesome season ending twist to Doctor Who. It will give people something to talk about in November.

    @Belafon (formerly anonevent): so, I have two theories… First is that he’s an older version of The Valyard. Second is that he’s the Eighth Doctor near the end of the Time War.

    Or, it’s something completely unrelated to either of those

    Just wait until the cat sneaks out and returns, dragging a 200-lb. tuna.

    Just an FYI for those interested last night, I didn’t take my boy to see his big sis go to sleep today. He was all over sniffing me when I got back today and really got excited when I let him smell her collar.

    He’s sleeping now and I will be too here soon. A very sad, but somewhat peaceful day, in its own way.

    Never have been able to make heads nor tails over who or what “wifey” refers to.

    @NotMax:

    Yutsano/Yatsuno is asiangrrlMN’s fake internet husband, so he calls her “wifey.”

    I’m not sure if that will be any less confusing for you.
