Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Jesus watching the most hateful people claiming to be his followers

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

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

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

One lie, alone, tears the fabric of reality.

You know it’s bad when the Project 2025 people have to create training videos on “How To Be Normal”.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Shut up, hissy kitty!

This must be what justice looks like, not vengeful, just peaceful exuberance.

“The defense has a certain level of trust in defendant that the government does not.”

We still have time to mess this up!

You cannot shame the shameless.

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

Every decision we make has lots of baggage with it, known or unknown.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.

Everything is totally normal and fine!!!

Quote tweet friends, screenshot enemies.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

If you don’t believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love isn’t freedom, it is privilege.

Hey Washington Post, “Democracy Dies in Darkness” was supposed to be a warning, not a mission statement.

Well, whatever it is, it’s better than being a Republican.

Poor preparation makes for poor presentation. In other words, I didn’t prepare so no pix this Friday. See you Monday!

    Just take good care of yourself and your family. The pictures are always lovely, but they will keep until another day!

    Hope that you and yours have a peaceful and happy weekend, and that your FIL feels better each day.
