Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

Every one of the “Roberts Six” lied to get on the court.

People are complicated. Love is not.

You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take. Go Senator Whitehouse!

… looking like a winsome Bee Gee who has stumbled into teaching geography

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

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the GOP

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

I’m just a talker, trying to find a channel!

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

Trump’s legal defense is going to be a dumpster fire inside a clown car on a derailing train.

He imagines himself as The Big Bad, Who Is Universally Feared… instead of The Big Jagoff, Who Is Universally Mocked.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

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

RIP Zandar. We are still here fighting the stupid, now in your honor.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

Everything is totally normal and fine!!!

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

Stamping your little feets and demanding that they see how important you are? Not working anymore.

I was promised a recession.

Bleg from commentor Abo Gato:

My husband and I will be in NYC next week and would love to have a BJ meetup one evening next week if you can scare up some other participants.

We come in on Monday and leave on Saturday. The only commitment we have is on Wednesday night when we go see Paul Simon and Sting perform together. We’ll be staying in mid-town. We will go in any direction to meetup…

Anybody interested / willing to volunteer to set up a meet, leave a comment below or email me at annelaurie dot verizon.net (click on my name under ‘contact’ in the right-hand column).

    @Culture of Truth:

    It’s too crowded.

    That’s what I saw when I got to the airport there, so I flew to London.

    Speaking of meet ups, any dates firming up for when Cole’s coming out to Colorado?

    Don’t know if this counts as an open thread, but it’s pretty freaky to see our long-awaited rainstorm headed towards us on the weather radar. It’s like what they show when Godzilla is wading towards Tokyo.

    For medium-sized groups (<10 people), Burp Castle is a quiet place to have a beer and chat.

    I’d love to come, but that’s the one night next week for which I’m committed elsewhere.
