Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty. ~Thomas Jefferson

The revolution will be supervised.

Our messy unity will be our strength.

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

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

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

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

My right to basic bodily autonomy is not on the table. that’s the new deal.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

I might just take the rest of the day off and do even more nothing than usual.

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

This fight is for everything.

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

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

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

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

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

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.

    I’d love a Boston meetup, say, sometime between Feb 8 and Feb 13? Traveling for work from my home office in tiny suburban Roulette, PA…

    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?

    A last minute request for help may prevent me from checking out this Indonesian place and meeting fellow juicers. I haz sad.

    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!!!
