Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Text STOP to opt out of updates on war plans.

The lights are all blinking red.

When we show up, we win.

If ‘weird’ was the finish line, they ran through the tape and kept running.

They are not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

So very ready.

Live so that if you miss a day of work people aren’t hoping you’re dead.

People really shouldn’t expect the government to help after they watched the GOP drown it in a bathtub.

When I was faster i was always behind.

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

The world has changed, and neither one recognizes it.

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

He really is that stupid.

Find someone who loves you the way trump and maga love traitors.

So fucking stupid, and still doing a tremendous amount of damage.

This fight is for everything.

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

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

On the Road is a weekday feature spotlighting reader photo submissions.

From the exotic to the familiar, whether you’re traveling or in your own backyard, we would love to see the world through your eyes.

Submit Your Photos

Good Morning All,

Another “lost” submission. I’ve had to trash two dozen more that never worked, sadly.

Have a wonderful day, and enjoy the pictures!

 

Today, pictures from valued commenter Kilgore Trout.

Just finished a cruise from Rome to Barcelona, and spending a couple of days here before heading home to the Puhet Sound this weekend.

Here’s the Thanksgiving morning sunrise in Barcelona…

This morning in Barcelona. Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Thank you so much Kilgore Trout, do send us more when you can.

 

Travel safely everybody, and do share some stories in the comments, even if you’re joining the conversation late. Many folks confide that they go back and read old threads, one reason these are available on the Quick Links menu.
