Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

In short, I come down firmly on all sides of the issue.

How can republicans represent us when they don’t trust women?

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

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

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

Maybe you would prefer that we take Joelle’s side in ALL CAPS?

If you are in line to indict donald trump, stay in line.

Israel is using food as a weapon of war. Unforgivable.

Let there be snark.

Books are my comfort food!

This blog will pay for itself.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

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

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

No one could have predicted…

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you don’t.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

American History and Black History can not be separated.

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

Could one of you artistic types create a picture of a snake with Donald Trump hair (maybe also a Donald Trump face?) with “Don’t Pee On Me” written on it?

In the style of this Wonkette classic

    anyone here friends with Driftglass?

    In the meantime, before you get your snake, have you seen the rooster PEOTUS?

    Interesting to speculate if the racist Tea Party movement will atrophy now that they’ve elected their Birther-in-Chief. Guessing “no” is the answer until segregated water fountains come back into vogue.

    I’ve learned the library where @ RepMikeCoffman held his event would’ve let him stay much longer. Coffman said library needed him to leave.

    Coffman is the CO congressman who snuck out of his own townhall because people showed up to ask him for details about the Republicans’ plan for health care. A liar and a coward.

    This does not seem to be going the way Sweet Paulie Blue Eyes thought it would.

    I really can’t believe how fast he wheels seem to be coming off this administration. Shit. He hasn’t even taken the fucking oath yet, and his numbers are in the toilet, intelligence agencies are freaking out and (I think) trying to undercut him, and there’s talk about how long the Republicans can hold off before they have to begin investigating him. This is fucking great. A month ago, two months ago, I was worried this might be the end of the country. Today, if I had to guess, I’d bet he doesn’t last a year in office.

    I saw “Don’t pee on me” on FB but it was not well done so I didn’t copy the drawing. Hopefully some artistic type here can do it well

    Those numbers are delicious. What’s the normal capacity of one of those buses, around 40? 50?

    January 15, 2017 at 11:57 pm

    @SiubhanDuinne: Assume 50. The large charters run from 49-57. So 1200×50=60,000. That’s just the charter bus crowd. One MA congressman has hired two train cars (80 per). All the folks coming in, sleeping at their friends, and taking the Metro in.

    And then all the sister marches…. And Orange Shitgibbon will just tweet, calling us names. Big “L” Lame.

    I liked it , but don’t know if I will continue watching it.

    It does indeed sound good!

    @rikyrah: I saw a couple of previews and didn’t find the actress playing Victoria very compelling. She seems too modern – like she’s an actress dressing up as Victoria, rather than an professional acting in a role.

    Wow, I am sorry about that spammy picture hosting site! Please delete my post.

    How could I upload my image to this page? And also, does anybody know an anonymous picture hosting site that isn’t a spam machine?

    @Christy imgur.com is usually pretty good about letting you link directly to the image. If all else fails, tweet the pic and then copy the twimg link from there. Either way, nailed it!
