Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The real work of an opposition party is to hold the people in power accountable.

“They all knew.”

Republicans got rid of McCarthy. Democrats chose not to save him.

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

You’re just a puppy masquerading as an old coot.

Text STOP to opt out of updates on war plans.

We can’t confuse what’s necessary to win elections with the policies that we want to implement when we do.

Let there be snark.

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you do not.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

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

Our messy unity will be our strength.

The “burn-it-down” people are good with that until they become part of the kindling.

Those who are easily outraged are easily manipulated.

Oh FFS you might as well trust a 6-year-old with a flamethrower.

This fight is for everything.

“But what about the lurkers?”

They don’t have outfits that big. nor codpieces that small.

So many bastards, so little time.

I would gladly pay you tuesday for a hamburger today.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Human rights are not a matter of opinion!

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

Balloon Juice Calendar

Ok- last call to express interest in the calendar. This is not actual orders, this is pre-orders so that I may gauge how many need to be ordered.

If you have not already, please email [email protected] [fixed address —M4] and state HOW MANY calendars you wish to purchase. Nothing else.

Please follow these SIMPLE ASS INSTRUCTIONS or you will be judged the way Steve judges me every time I walk up the stairs to the second floor.

If you are wondering why the runner is all cockeyed, it is because around the corner is Steve’s litterbox that he rarely uses. However, I changed the litter yesterday, and he immediately went into the litter box, used the runner to plant his paws, and then kicked litter in every fucking direction, coating a sixteen square foot area with a light coating of litter. He didn’t even use it. He just arranged it for me.

Because he is helpful like that. The motherfucker.

    He had the turds arranged just the way he wanted and you had to fuck it up. Why wouldn’t Steve do that?

    Whatever happened to the Balloon Juice site rebuild fundraiser? People had suggested starting it the Sunday after Thanksgiving. That’s come and gone.

    Husband kitteh calls the scattering of litter everywhere without even actually using the litterbox, the dance of joy. They like to check out their new bathroom without using it. Dance of joy, is their seal of approval.

    Thank you for the one laugh I had today. And one helluva laugh it was. I miss my kitty so so much, it’s my first Christmas without her in 18 years. She and Steve as Maine Coons would have gotten along splendidly.
