Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

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

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

Trump’s cabinet: like a magic 8 ball that only gives wrong answers.

I did not have this on my fuck 2025 bingo card.

Since we are repeating ourselves, let me just say fuck that.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

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

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Nothing says ‘pro-life’ like letting children go hungry.

It is possible to do the right thing without the promise of a cookie.

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

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

Celebrate the fucking wins.

Trumpflation is an intolerable hardship for every American, and it’s Trump’s fault.

Petty moves from a petty man.

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

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

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

    Dang, those Uruguay kits are so bright white, they’re practically glowing. It’s like an advertisement for Clorox.

    You know how players with a broken cheekbone or eye socket play in a clear face-mask? Well, maybe Luis should play in a hockey goalkeeper’s mask. Like Hannibal Lecter.

    Spain in this game reminds me of a cat playing with a mouse it has caught before it kills it.

    No Forlan in the first half for Uruguay? If that’s purely the coach’s decision, I’d say it’s a poor one.

    @Randinho: A good point by the announcers all the talk of Spain’s decline in football is based on teir clubs, their U-21 team is supposedly a killer.
