Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

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

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

If you cannot answer whether trump lost the 2020 election, you are unfit for office.

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

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

So fucking stupid, and still doing a tremendous amount of damage.

The willow is too close to the house.

Republicans do not trust women.

Let the trolls come, and then ignore them. that’s the worst thing you can do to a troll.

“But what about the lurkers?”

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

Republicans cannot even be trusted with their own money.

Let there be snark.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

There is no right way to do the wrong thing.

“When somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they’re gonna use it.”

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

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

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you do not.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

From party planner Yutsano:

The final plan! We have a private room reserved under Balloon Juice at Indo Cafe so just ask for that. It seats 14 which I doubt we’ll go over, but if necessary their larger room is also available. Can’t wait to see folks!

Lurkers, companions, and friends always welcome.

If there are pictures you want posted afterwards, email me jpegs.

    Google Maps says it’s a 3:10 drive from Portland, so Bob should hit the road pretty soon if he’s going to make it. I don’t know what traffic is like out there on the other side. You drive on the right side of the road, don’t you?

    While standing on my porch minutes ago (about 700 miles due south of Seattle), a large, unseen flock of small birds began to shrilly tweet in unison- like a symphony that suddenly swelled. I looked up and craned my neck, and sure enough circling above, in low orbit, were two hawks. You won’t see that in a city…

    @Tree With Water: I have seen an eagle swoop down and catch a fish in Green Lake, inside the Seattle city limits. So there!!!
