Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Their boy Ron is an empty plastic cup that will never know pudding.

He really is that stupid.

“Cheese and Kraken paired together for the appetizer trial.”

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

with the Kraken taking a plea, the Cheese stands alone.

Republicans in disarray!

That pie keeps getting more and more forks, reducing anyone’s chance of even a Perot.

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

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

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

The GOP couldn’t organize an orgy in a whorehouse with a fist full of 50s.

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

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

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

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

A lot of Dems talk about what the media tells them to talk about. Not helpful.

“I never thought they’d lock HIM up,” sobbed a distraught member of the Lock Her Up Party.

    That cover is gorgeous! Who are those two sweet pups? The quizzical looks dogs give just slay me every time.

    I’ve gotten more than a few of those looks and I always say, “Yeah, me too, buddy.”

    @schrodingers_cat:
    The oldest cats, Toby and Bea, are showing signs of age. The new boys, Ginger and Ollie, are best buds. Bitsy is my little darling, and Homer is still an asshole.
    Gabe is starting to learn manners, and Katie is a Pretty Princess.

    Good looking calender! I’m going to get one as soon as I get back to my tablet, easier than the phone to shop from.

    @Yarrow:

    Those two maniacs are mine!

    Roo is the red merle and Confetti is the blue.

    They will be a year old in February. We adopted them in June from someone who could no longer take care of them because of an illness.

    John, you need to add some Steve merchandise at your store. He is a magnificent bastard, and needs his mug on a mug or something. Your most recent photos were great and I’d love to see a pic of him stretching his extra toes.

    Not sure, I think G-mail might have turned them into links for Drive because reasons. Yep, Gmail turned them all into individual links, they would have to be downloaded from Drive. I thought they would be in a folder, at least.

    Individual pages are hard to see on my phone, but I’m not seeing mine there either. ☹️

    Oh well, be getting mine on payday at the end of the month. Getting the tv for our mutual Christmas present to each other (and all the other expenses this time of year) has tightened the purse strings until then.

    @Lee: I love Roo and Confetti. Beautiful dogs.

    Merles are a thing lately. As are corgis. “It” dogs.

    Merry Christmas Eve to all and their pets. Festivus plus one to those who are not Christmasmaniacs.

    I agree it seems merles of all types are popular now. I’ve had aussies since 1988 (before they were AKC).

    Serious cute puppy overload with a serious result —how guide dogs in Britain are born and raised before they start their training.

    @jeffreyw: i’m sorry we didn’t get your crew in this year! i did wonder why i didn’t get any photos from you since you’ve been contributing every year i’ve done this, i think. to be sure, i just searched my email and didn’t find any forwarded emails from you via john cole.

    if anyone sent their photos in and i didn’t get them or i missed them but they still would like to see them included, send them to me [geology underscore grrrrl at yahoo dot com] and i will do my best to try and fit them in. if you send me photos, don’t buy a calendar until i let you know there are new pages uploaded with your critters.

    @beth:

    So, very kind, Beth.

    Mine didn’t make it either, even though I sent Nov 13th. Will send to you again, now.

    Was noticing those nice colored squares. May the missing ones fit right in.

    @beth:

    Guess this isn’t the year for my kitties in the calendar.

    Email didn’t work, got returned. Twice.

    But thanks for the kind offer.

    @beth:

    Possibly, there is an extra “r” in “4 r” grrrrl in post. Noticed 3 r’s in other handles. So I tried that. Worse that could happen is some other grrrl is getting a nice cat pic.

    Continuing thanks

    The link behind your nym is broken.

    I’m late to this thread; possibly someone else has mentioned this already.
