Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We can show the world that autocracy can be defeated.

It is possible to do the right thing without the promise of a cookie.

If a good thing happens for a bad reason, it’s still a good thing.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

If rights aren’t universal, they are privilege, not rights.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

I’m starting to think Jesus may have made a mistake saving people with no questions asked.

When you’re a Republican, they let you do it.

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

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

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

A norm that restrains only one side really is not a norm – it is a trap.

Our messy unity will be our strength.

I swear, each month of 2025 will have its own history degree.

Fight them, without becoming them!

Well, whatever it is, it’s better than being a Republican.

If you thought you’d already seen people saying the stupidest things possible on the internet, prepare yourselves.

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Disagreements are healthy; personal attacks are not.

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

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

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

    Shouldn’t they have groups with nothing but the same flag colors? I mean, it would but down on those televised lottery draws, but is that a bad thing?

    The heat is going to play a role, in the high 90’s down south and even Santa Clara is in the 90s.

    ¡¡Ticos!!

    We were at a restaurant that put the game on for us. The combination of watching it on a smallish screen above the bar, watching it without sound, and there being no score after 65 minutes of play, was disappointing, so we removed our pizza-fed and canoli-fed selves from there. It looks like it’s still scoreless.
