Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Disappointing to see gov. newsom with his finger to the wind.

Human rights are not a matter of opinion!

Books are my comfort food!

Our messy unity will be our strength.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

White supremacy is terrorism.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

There are some who say that there are too many strawmen arguments on this blog.

“I was told there would be no fact checking.”

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

Rupert, come get your orange boy, you petrified old dinosaur turd.

It’s a good piece. click on over. but then come back!!

Lick the third rail, it tastes like chocolate!

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.

Disagreements are healthy; personal attacks are not.

Museums are not America’s attic for its racist shit.

When you’re in more danger from the IDF than from Russian shelling, that’s really bad.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

Stay strong, because they are weak.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

Dear legacy media: you are not here to influence outcomes and policies you find desirable.

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

We are aware of all internet traditions.

    I am so jealous of you west coasters. Stuck in Ohio were the only thing happening is Kay commenting. Our R senator is a jerk.

    While I will be unable to attend, I will, in an act of solidarity, have tacos for lunch.

    @schrodingers_cat:
    Despite having eaten at many “New Mexican” restaurants elsewhere, the food in Santa Fe is uniquely wonderful (chile adobada FTW). Suspect it’s some combination of the local chilies and the altitude but whatever the reason, a food paradise and some of the nation’s oldest historical sites and structures, set in the high desert. Also home to quite a few of the nation’s ghoulishly wealthy, which isn’t easy to ignore but whatevs.

    Huh, only 2,200 miles. I guess I could say I’m going out for lunch and not be too specific.

    @Sab: Well, New Mexico doesn’t usually count as west coast, but we’re happy to be included in the event of Calexit. Condolences on Ohio GOP, also too.

    I lived in Santa Fe from October 1977 to June 1978 volunteering at a small private school then running a chair lift at the Ski Basin all the while sharing a house on Galisteo Street half a block south of Paseo de Peralta. We shopped at Kaune’s, drank at La Fonda (when we could afford it), and loved being ski bums. Ah, youth. (One of my housemates is now a political reporter for the New York Times.)

    Love love love Santa Fe, have been a regular visitor for 30+ years. First stop was always Bert’s Burger Bowl for a green chile cheeseburger and onion rings – “One Location Worldwide” – but alas, it’s gone. Maria’s is the first stop now – their Margarita menu is next level.

    Have a basket of sopapillas for me.

    Cheryl – I live in Los Alamos and would love to attend but I’m on assignment near Las Cruces. Hopefully next time.

    Maria’s margaritas are great. The trout is my go-to dish there.

    @O. Felix Culpa: Unfortunately, you’ve got Arizona in the way. We’re not taking them with us.

    June 14, 2017 at 7:01 pm

    @Origuy: Hmmm, yes I understand your position vis-a-vis Arizona. Maybe build a yuuuge bridge from NM to CA? Or a beautiful wall around AZ?

    @O. Felix Culpa: We’d take Nevada. If you could get the Navajos to secede, we’d just have to run the bridge from Nevada to the reservation. Cut the distance in half.
    ETA And the Hopis.
