Come for the politics, stay for the snark.
Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.
Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.
Fuck the extremist election deniers. What’s money for if not for keeping them out of office?
Nothing worth doing is easy.
I really should read my own blog.
I’m sure you banged some questionable people yourself.
New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.
A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires
“And when the Committee says to “report your income,” that could mean anything!
Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?
DeSantis transforms Florida into 1930s Germany with gators and theme parks.
It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.
Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.
This really is a full service blog.
A last alliance of elves and men. also pet photos.
They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.
I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.
I didn’t have alien invasion on my 2023 BINGO card.
A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.
Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?
You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.
Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.
The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.
rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

YAY! I didn’t order one but still YAY! And the cover is gorgeous!

Hooray!
THANK YOU.

Good news everybody

Holy crap, who stole my Samwise?
Miss Bianca
Does Samwise also affect that deer/cat-in-the-headlights look?

@Major Major Major Major: @Miss Bianca: Whoever it is got my Peter, too.

I still haven’t gotten my God damned calendar yet. Shit. I sent my check in. What’s the fucking hold up here?
Smedley Darlington Prunebanks (formerly Mumphrey, et al.)
Also, too, this calendar sucks. I told you you should have used the printer I suggested in Maine. It’s only 800 miles from where you live. Shit. Also, too, the formatting sucks.

@Miss Bianca: his pupils are dilated when he does it.
Smedley Darlington Prunebanks (formerly Mumphrey, et al.)
And why isn’t my dog in this calendar? I know I never sent in any pictures, but still. Shit. Worst. Calendar. Ever.
MisterForkbeard
Fantastic! I didn’t order one (because I thought my wife already had our calendar for the year), but it turned out we needed one. These look fantastic.
@Smedley Darlington Prunebanks (formerly Mumphrey, et al.): This is how you get banned. :)
MisterForkbeard
@Smedley Darlington Prunebanks (formerly Mumphrey, et al.): Upper right kitteh looks like my Cthulhu when she was a baby, oh so long ago. :)

Looking forward to it. The Humane Society just doesn’t measure up.

Did you get the last 40 sold, John?
WaterGirl
Awesome. Congratulations, Cole.
That large photo of the gorgeous gray kitty on the front is basically me, every day since Trump was elected.
rikyrah
yeah
spudgun
Thank you, John!!
Yay!
trollhattan
Cockers in the news–“Spencer” freed after three days stuck in a UK drainpipe. Could totally envision mine doing exactly the same thing–critter goes into a pipe, I’m following it!
CaseyL
Yay! Can’t wait to get mine!
cain
We should have at least one tunch photo.
catclub
That looks a large dog in front of a GIANT dog.
catclub
@trollhattan:
I wonder if the German word for drainpipe is ‘dachs’?
Anonymous At Work
@Miss Bianca: Looks more like the cat is receiving a colonoscopy…
Yutsano
@catclub: “Dachs” means badger in German. Gives one a new perspective on these little ankle biters eh?
@Roger Moore: Beat ya by that much!
Roger Moore
@catclub:
“Dachs” is German for badger. That’s right, dachshunds were bred to hunt badgers by chasing them down their burrows.
catclub
@Yutsano: @Roger Moore:
you people are no fun.
Manyakitty
Yay!!!
cain
I could buy a calendar I suppose if there is any left.
eclare
@Major Major Major Major: That’s not Samwise?
Suffragette City
What a perfect cover !!!
Salty Sam
Hey John, can you tell me how I can order one of these calendars?
laura
Chet is going to be furious that not only didn’t he make the cover, let alone his hoomin didn’t care enough to send in a pic.
debbie
@Major Major Major Major:
Alarm aside, he has beautiful coloring.
geg6
Hey look! Lovey and Koda are cover models! Yay!
ETA: And my John’s foot, too. Not so much yay for that. ?
MomSense
Is that Samwise on the cover? Looks wonderful.
cain
So it seems Trump wants a parade
Seriously, we are turning into a banana republic or Russia with shows of military strength.. never mind this shit is going to cost us millions of tax payer dollars. He is going to bankrupt us all, morally and fiscally while GOP merrily plays their violins.
MomSense
@geg6:
Lovey is adorable but Koda stole my heart all those years ago when she went to live with you.
MomSense
@Comrade Colette Collaboratrice:
Is that your kitten on the cover? I haz kitten envy.

@Roger Moore:
When I was a kid we had a Saint Bernard and a miniature Dachshund. Guess who ruled the roost? Then we got adopted a stray who looked just like Benji and was tri-lingual. He was capable of amazing physical feats and yet the Dachsund was still the boss dog.

@Yutsano:
I needed a picture for my university online newsletter, and my husband took a picture of me in my office. Only later did I realize that there’s an old Balloon Juice calendar on the shelf behind me in the picture. A kind of “green balloons” signal to the cognoscenti, totally unintentional.

@cain: Our Caligula needs constant massaging of his bloated, fragile ego. I and most other veterans are disgusted to see this Orange Turd and draft dodger saluting and being saluted.
Major Major Major Major
@MomSense: I don’t think I submitted a picture this year, and I’m fairly certain I don’t own anything with that pattern on it, so if it is Samwise…

@Major Major Major Major: Grey kitteh looks alarmed.
debbie
@Major Major Major Major:
That might explain the shocked look.
MomSense
@Major Major Major Major:
What if he has a secret life you don’t know about?
Major Major Major Major
@MomSense: He doesn’t even go outside, but I guess the building manager could be borrowing him.

Grey kitty on the front is from Oakland…her name is Geneva and this is her look after watching/reading Anything about Trumphole. (Kitten in the upper corner is Frieda).
Major Major Major Major
@BeezusQ: how old is Geneva? Maybe they’re related.
Major Major Major Major
@Major Major Major Major: I should note that this would be the third cat I’ve seen that looked just like Samwise, all in the Bay Area (unless Geneva used to live by Valencia and Market and is the same cat).
Buckeye
I should have bought a calendar, just for the cover alone.

He will be sitting astride a parading missile ala Dr. Strangelove.

Could someone post the info again for the animal shelter this supports?
My relatives keep me more than supplied with calendars, but I’m up for sending a few coins in their direction.

I hope this calendar has ferrets because someone in another thread said they like ferrets.
BeezusQ
@Major Major Major Major: She is probably just over a year old…if that. From the shelter.
