Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

“That’s what the insurrection act is for!”

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

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

DeSantis transforms Florida into 1930s Germany with gators and theme parks.

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

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

This fight is for everything.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

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

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

“Cheese and Kraken paired together for the appetizer trial.”

Ah, the different things are different argument.

“And when the Committee says to “report your income,” that could mean anything!

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

It’s a doggy dog world.

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

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

    To summarize the episode, everyone talked in very quiet-but-serious tones with nary a smile in the bunch.

    @Keith P: then they all go to Hawaii, but bad stuff happens when one of them uncovers a tiki doll. It’s an interesting turn of events.

    I tried to quit watching it because I pretty much despise every single character at this point, including the children. Well, I can’t help but admire Gemma a bit. And Bobby would be fun at a tailgate. But everyone else should go die in the nearest fire.

    Anyway, after resolving to give up on the series some time ago, I got sucked back in during a recent bout of insomnia. But I missed this week’s episode. So what happened? I hope someone put that mopey psychopath Juice outta his goddamned misery. Spoilers welcomed!

    @Suffern ACE: Oh, damn, I didn’t realize it was a two-hour ep! In the end, did Phil leave the hotel room and get a massage with Miss Kay, or did he stab someone in the head repeatedly with a fork?

    For some reason, on Wed. the 11th, TCM will be showing 9 – count’ em, 9 – movies involving football back to back.

    Yuppers. Sometimes they stretch it a little too far. There was one day a while back when every film had the word ‘blue’ in the title.

    Didn’t know if Dec 11 might be a major football anniversary or something. Been on this planet for a long, long time, and if I said I’ve watched or heard five minutes of real-life football over that span, would be grossly exaggerating.

    @MikeJ:

    Do you know whether “The Wind Journeys” (the “squeezebox throwdown”) is one of Patton Oswalt’s selections as tonight’s TCM “Guest Programmer”? He was blowing Robert Osborne’s mind earlier this evening while describing the gay subtext of the original “3:10 to Yuma” movie.

    And my mind was blown a few moments ago upon learning that the Belgian/French film “Aaltra” is scheduled to air at 2:00am EST. Because one doesn’t come across pitch-black comedies about middle-aged men in wheelchairs seeking justice for their injuries all that often. A deliciously nasty piece of work. Those of you for whom it’s still December 10 might want to check it out.

    If Oswalt is responsible for all of tonight’s programming from “Kind Hearts and Coronets” to “Road to Bali,” that is one mighty peculiar sensibility.

    @Amir Khalid: Taking lessons from the Republicans I see,

    What China really needs is some sort of left-wing political party committed to ruling on behalf of the workers and peasants. It hasn’t had one of those before, has it?

    @John: As long as it’s over already. The last few episodes should have been hosted by Howie Mandel, shouting “Deal or no deal?!” every ten minutes.

    (Yeah, I’m late to this thread.)
