Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

A last alliance of elves and men. also pet photos.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

People are complicated. Love is not.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

“More of this”, i said to the dog.

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

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

This really is a full service blog.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

Battle won, war still ongoing.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

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

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

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

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

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

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

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

    Forget that. There was a big dust-up at the end of the Man City-Chelsea match: two red cards, two yellows, probably big fines to follow.

    On a Saturday?

    I’m a separatist at heart (Catalonia got a raw deal during unification) so Barcelona FTW!!

    @Yutsano: I have been contracted to do a program in which I guest lecture as a native English speaker for high school students. It’s been a lot of fun.

    @Steeplejack (tablet): Just read about it. Fernandinho has always been a bit of a hot head. I’m guessing he may not be back until after Carnaval, which would be March 1st.

    @Randinho: Aguero is going to have to sit for a while too.

    Dortmund is looking back on track, now up 4-1 on Monchengladbach after a great backheel by Reus to set up Aubemayang

    @BillCinSD: At least four games in Agüero’s case.

    @Steeplejack (tablet):

    Just guessing here, but did Costa instigate it and then make like Sir Robin?

    I have a friend who has done this in Japan for 12 years. He’s said he’ll never return to the US for lots of reasons but part of it is because he loves his job. I’ve thought about it but nah. Being an ebil tax guy is kinda fun.

    If only Suarez had learned to do that without biting people, he could still be at Liverpool.

    Last minute equaliser! Real Madrid are level. They keep their six-point lead in La Liga.

    Daniel Carvajal gave the Barça bench the finger after that. Classy.

    @Yutsano: It’s been fun and I love the students, but not sure I will do it again if asked. The program is great and the students have embraced me. I have ober 250 FB friend requests drom them.

    Ther is a high level of disorganization here. They were very slow in paying me and they routinely sprung additional classes on me at the last minute. We will see.

    What’s going on at the London Stadium? In six minutes, the score has gone from West Ham 0-3 Arsenal to West Ham 1-5 Arsenal. And half the spectators have just up and left.
