Come for the politics, stay for the snark.
Oppose, oppose, oppose. do not congratulate. this is not business as usual.
Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls 2 years from now.
If you can’t control your emotions, someone else will.
You know it’s bad when the Project 2025 people have to create training videos on “How To Be Normal”.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.
One lie, alone, tears the fabric of reality.
Rupert, come get your orange boy, you petrified old dinosaur turd.
We can show the world that autocracy can be defeated.
Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.
Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.
I’m starting to think Jesus may have made a mistake saving people with no questions asked.
He really is that stupid.
Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.
Republicans do not pay their debts.
Conservatism: there are people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.
It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.
Fuck these fucking interesting times.
The most dangerous place for a black man in America is in a white man’s imagination.
There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.
Today in our ongoing national embarrassment…
The words do not have to be perfect.
You are either for trump or for democracy. Pick one.
You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

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. :)

@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.

@Major Major Major Major:
That might explain the shocked look.

@Major Major Major Major:
What if he has a secret life you don’t know about?

@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).

I should have bought a calendar, just for the cover alone.

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.
