Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

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

We still have time to mess this up!

Consistently wrong since 2002

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

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

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

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

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

Americans barely caring about Afghanistan is so last month.

I have thought about this girl for days and even tried to get commenter JenJen (another Ohio girl) to add her to the brood, so this makes me happy:

I’m just going to add her to the list of the ones who got away, because that is seriously one of the most precious faces I have ever seen. And with a beagle/dachshund mix, you just know she is going to be a splendid handful.

    Congratulations to little Juliet! Very glad she’s found a home… and that it’s not yours, Cole :)

    I’m not even that much of a dog lover (nothing against dogs, I’ve just always had cats) and this puppeh has taken hold of my brain since I first saw her picture. So glad she has a new forever home!

    Is it possible this dog just has a naturally pensive look and isn’t trying to convey emotional vulnerability?

    Great news!

    I can’t commit to a pup right now, but I am the resident dog sitter in our office. I know you can’t underestimate the comfort in knowing your fam is taken care of while you’re away. Its great for all parties involved. I often tell my co-workers to go somewhere already!,so I can get my dog time in.

    I was going to sponsor her. No internet connection over the holidays, though.

    Did the disco scarf convey?

    Happy news re Miss Juliet. Hope she loves her forever home.

    What did become of her puppies?

    That’s a link to some pictures of some of the dos rescued from the hoarder in Washington state. One of he dogs looks like Lily. Her name is Lupe and she was “rescued” by the hoarder in 2007 and spent the years since then in a crate stacked in a warehouse. Being held, breathing clean air, being taken for a walk…all miracles for her.

    @SiubhanDuinne: About 40 miles northeast of Atlanta. Not far from Chateau Élan — at least not geographically, anyway. In other ways, however, I might as well be on another planet.

    And I want a calendar too! Take my money already!

    It’s a good feeling when you see the successes out there. Sorry you didn’t get her John but let’s face it….you can’t quit your job and be broodmaster to critters. And she got adopted. She’ll be much happier now. So should we all.

    @Karen in GA: Not all that far from me, I’m in Duluth/John’s Creek area.

    Let me know if you’d ever be up for a local meet-up. JPL and I have met a couple of times, and we keep trying to find a time that SIA and Raven can join in. Would love to do a Georgia get-together with you and anyone else in metro Atlanta area.

    Sweet doggie face!

    Brought our dog (adopted from a shelter in October) to my parents’ for Christmas. Also visiting were my young nieces and nephews, all afraid of dogs (to varying degrees). I offered to keep her on a lead with me the whole week if needed, but within two days they were all playing fetch with our pooch, giving her commands (none of which match the commands we’ve actually taught her) and overfeeding her with treats. Every minute of retraining I’ll have to do once we’re home will be worth it for the memory of the nephew who is particularly terrified of dogs petting our good girl.

    I have this strange with my niece. All four years old of her. I don’t spend as much time with her as I wish, but alas we rock the shit.
