Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

This country desperately needs a functioning fourth estate.

My right to basic bodily autonomy is not on the table. that’s the new deal.

DeSantis transforming Florida into 1930s Germany with gators and theme parks.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

Hey hey, RFK, how many kids did you kill today?

Of course you can have champagne before noon. That’s why orange juice was invented.

“Until such time as the world ends, we will act as though it intends to spin on.”

I would gladly pay you tuesday for a hamburger today.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

’Where will you hide, Roberts, the laws all being flat?’

At some point, the ability to learn is a factor of character, not IQ.

Quote tweet friends, screenshot enemies.

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

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

Today in our ongoing national embarrassment…

You would normally have to try pretty hard to self-incriminate this badly.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

If America since Jan 2025 hasn’t broken your heart, you haven’t loved her enough.

Since we are repeating ourselves, let me just say fuck that.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

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

American history and black history cannot be separated.

    I would marry that guy if I wasn’t already married — to a woman. And for other reasons…

    Pretty funny!! He should get an award asap!

    Repeating, because it is so inherently dumb.
    This week, some Chick-fil-A customers got emails from the chain about celebrating National Sandwich Day. The annual celebration takes place on November 3, which falls on a Sunday this year.

    Chick-fil-A is famously closed on Sundays. So, on Thursday, the chicken chain emailed customers to apologize for their mistake. Source

    Also too, no Friday Food thread again?

    Some might recall that I’ve been out of work since May. Great week for me (bad for Trump), but I got two job offers and I get to pick which one! :)

    Ah Firefly. I used to be such a fan of that show and especially of Jayne Cobb. And then, Adam Baldwin’s post “Chuck” fuckery ruined it for me.

    People were talking about Mayor Pete’s talk as being good — wow, they were wrong. I mean, it sounded good, but it was a bunch of one liners. I mean, he has clearly gotten his Obama enunciation down, but it just felt empty. Didn’t want to knock him, and of course if he somehow gets the nomination I’ll support him, but it was just meh.

    Ferdinand stepped up and owned it, like a good unicorn should.

    Also, Americans are just too damned fortunate to have Canada as a neighbor.

    Yang was better than I expected at the Iowa event. Biden was Biden. Let’s see how others do…

    My s-i-l is a big Jayne fan, has the beanie and named his daughter(my totally awesome granddaughter) Vera. Which I am given to understand is the name given to one of Jane’s guns. (They have a beanie for Vera too)

    Listen to that news anchor laugh was wonderful. Such true joy.

    Firefly fans: Outer Worlds has a companion largely based on Kaylee.

    Everybody adores her.
