Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Let the trolls come, and then ignore them. that’s the worst thing you can do to a troll.

Fight them, without becoming them!

Oppose, oppose, oppose. do not congratulate. this is not business as usual.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

Republicans: The threats are dire, but my tickets are non-refundable!

Marge, god is saying you’re stupid.

In my day, never was longer.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

The rest of the comments were smacking Boebert like she was a piñata.

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

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

Peak wingnut was a lie.

If you voted for Trump, you don’t get to speak about ethics, morals, or rule of law.

… gradually, and then suddenly.

Innocent people do not delay justice.

All hail the time of the bunny!

You passed on an opportunity to be offended? What are you even doing here?

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Pet Calendar and In Memoriam

by John Cole|  December 6, 20194:31 pm| 87 Comments

This post is in: Absent Friends, Pet Blogging, Pet Rescue

FacebookTweetEmail

Just a reminder to submit your pet pictures for the Balloon Juice Pet Calendar 2020. You can click the link to the upper right that says “Pet Calendar Info” and get the full rundown on how to submit. Get them in soon so we can get cracking!

Also, I thought that this year, in the pages prior to the start of the calendar, we would have an In Memoriam for those we have lost. So if you have a favorite comment or memory about General Stuck, efgoldman, greennotGreen, Scotian, schlemazel, or any others, please place them or link them in the comments below. I will then go through and pick out a few and we will include them in the calendar so that when you get it you can look back fondly on their memories. As a bonus I can spend the next six months dealing with angry emails from people whose memory was not chosen because that’s how we roll on this shit website where no good deed goes unpunished you insufferable pricks.

Update: On a computer or a tablet in landscape mode, you can click the link in the upper right that says “Pet Calendar Info” and get the full rundown on how to submit. On a phone or on a tablet in portrait mode, you can find “Pet Calendar Info” under the 3 horizontal lines, aka the hamburger.

    My God, just looking at this list — “General Stuck, efgoldman, greennotGreen, Scotian, schlemazel” — I got tears in my eyes and was overwhelmed with memories of people I never laid eyes on, but whose unique and irreplaceable souls shone forth on this blog.

    It’s a sad list.  I searched for each one (search this website) yesterday. There are 461 pages of threads that match with efgoldman, 67 for greennotGreen, 217 for Schlemazel, 1302 for General Stuck, and 12 pages for Scotian.

    There may be more for General Stuck, but he changed his nym fairly frequently and I don’t remember all the nyms he used.  Searching for “stuck” gave the best results and found a couple of his nyms.

    edit: reminder: all of efgoldman’s original comments were somehow corrupted on the old site and were no longer there in the old database when we checked, which was probably a year ago by now.  any comments that efgoldman REPLIED to are in there.  So if EF wrote a comment about the awesome watermelon he found at the farmer’s market, that comment is not in the wordpress database.  But if YOU wrote a comment about the awesome watermelon you found, and efgoldman replied to your comment, his reply will be in there.

    FYI search results are based on the best match order, so the posts are not listed in chronological order.  So if you search for “butterflies” the posts with the most instances of “butterflies” will be the first post in the list.

    Not everyone is an ass, although most of us know how to be one. Many try not to be one, it does make the world a bit better. But it’s  difficult to abide by the ones who can’t seem to be anything else. The list that zhena gogolia wrote were such people. Always trying to be in some way just a little bit better. Even in the face of horrible. And we knew them, sort of. They became friends, people who you wanted to be around, to hear, to agree with, or even disagree with on occasion. They were good, sometimes maybe not so good, but they wore their humanity right up front for all to see. And we miss them because they were memorable for all that.

    I’m an hourly lurker, but don’t comment much. Just submitted some photos of my dog, who had a crazy scare a few weeks ago. He’s 13 years old, and was developing a slight limp… I came home from work one night, and he was sitting in the middle of the rug, unable to move. After an evening in the Vet ER, he was diagnosed with IVDD, and sent home with pain killers, anti inflammatories, and muscle relaxants. He’s almost back to his old self now, so we’re pretty confident it’s not a tumor, or anything else that would involve MRIs and surgeries. Here’s to praying for many years to come – My last dog, a Miniature Long Haired Dachshund, lived to be 17, so I’m moving forward with confidence!

    I was thinking the other night of the blogger, Steve Gilliard, who died in 2007 or 2008. His was the first political blog I followed and he was a brilliant writer and historian. Unfortunately, he was sickly and died in his early 40’s. What’s funny is that he was African American, which I didn’t realise til I saw a picture of him. I thought of him when Obama won in 2008, knowing how pleased he would have been.

     

    What a brilliant and disciplined mind he had. Does anyone else remember him?

    If/when awards in blogging are “a thing” they should be called a Gilly in his honor. A towering intellect and his influence led me to Digby, Driftglass, Tbogg and so it goes.

    Like most of us, I never met efgoldman, but we had geography in common, and I was fortunate to have been able to attend his memorial service, which I am quite sure he had a hand in. It included not just a screening of Abbott & Costello’s “Who’s on First?” routine, but had his daughter reading the infield fly rule. A more fitting exit I can’t imagine. So long, Peter.

    I also had s soft spot for Tommy and am saddened to hear he died. He made my autism-radar beep loudly, I always assumed what other people found tiresome about him was the social awkwardness endemic to autism.

    December 6, 2019 at 6:15 pm

    This is a lovely idea…just don’t forget Walter (like we could.)

    I’ve been a long-time lurker — starting just after Obama’s election, so after Cole’s turn from the dark side but before his broken shoulder and various physical and home remodeling mishaps. I’ve checked this blog virtually everyday, devoting thousands of hours to reading the posts and the comments. I read through Walter’s saga and cried more when he died than I did when my own pets died. I have a flash bulb memory of where I was the horrible night I read that Tunch had died, General Stuck had passed away, and George Zimmerman was acquitted.

     

    Somehow I’ve developed parasocial relationships with some of the strangest, smartest people I could imagine (plus the occasional questionable front pager), and I say that lovingly. I think dozens of us have, in this pack of jackals. That’s kind of f*ed up, but remarkable — so much so that an honest-to-god academic wrote about us in a real book.

     

    So I recognize those names and was shocked to learn that each one of those commenters had passed away. I was especially moved by one commenter’s posts this year (I apologize for not knowing their name) as they cared for loved ones during their illnesses before cruelly dying themselves.

     

    I felt the need to share and hope everyone takes care. And let’s not forget Walter.

    **One important note — the links to the pictures on Tunch’s memorial page are missing. Or is he being surly from the great beyond?

    Thanks, I found the thread about Tommy’s passing. I googled his obituary but no cause of death listed there.

     

    I once heavily hinted about autism in a thread, and he gave me an answer that could have been Interpreted as, “Yep, that’s me.” Knowing that he died so young — well, that’s not unusual for autistics, for a variety of reasons.

     

    It is weird that the death of people you “meet” online could punch you in the gut.

    In the early 2000’s, there was an annual award for lefty blogs. It was called the Kofaux Award (Sandy was left-handed) and was started by Dwight Meredith who had a blog called PLA: Politics, Law and Autism.

    After a few years, the couple  who had another now-defunct blog, Wampum, took over the award for a few years. I know Digby won it, she used to display her award on her blog (haven’t been there in a long time).

    Anyway, I tried goggling and didn’t get very far so I can’t tell you if Steve Gillard won one or not, but he certainly deserved one.

    So, I’m mainly a lurker but I took a break from the blog after the 2012 election, and came back around the time of greennotGreen’s passing. Lots of change in commenters (e.g., no Soonergrunt, Redkitten, aimai, asiangrrlMN)…but the one person I keep wondering about for some reason is Higgs Boson’s Mate.

    @spudgun: He got a lot of his medical issues resolved and reconciled with his wife in August or September 2015. I have not heard much from him since, but we are FB friends and he posted in June that he could not stay on FB because they are evil. Then last week he posted Happy Thanksgiving wishes from himself, his wife and son, and Leland, one of the greatest dogs in the world. So he, and more as I used to tell him, more importantly Leland, are good.

     

    So I keep FB for things like that, even though I never post much. I did that thing where they have to tell you what they know about you, and send your data, and they said they had nothing.

    @Mary G: I’ll never forget how frantic and upset I was when he posted a farewell, and then you hunted him down and brought him home.  You are a shining light of kindness and compassion and I admire you so much.

    I came back here the first, second, fifth time ’cause of the antics of Tunch. (Not out to make less of BJ humans no longer with us… first thought this post was about a memorial to departed pets.)

    @debbie: That would be Roxy, and yes…she’s still with us!

     

    Let’s see, the pet photo roster would go: Stella, Luna, Pancho and Lefty, Watson, Roxy. I’ll have to get busy!

    Speaking of “because that’s how we roll on this shit website where no good deed goes unpunished”…

     

    I haven’t seen any mention of cost of “new” shit website. Maybe I missed it.

    Is this info available?

    Inquiring minds, doncha know.

    @Gammyjill: Just beneath the banner up top, click on “Pet Calendar Info.” Far right hand side.

    @Dr, Fungus: so sorry. May the memory of how much she was loved and loved her people be a comfort. You gave her all a dog could ever want: a home full of love.

    To the right of the banner there are 3 lines. Clicking on them DOES NOT yield any pet calendar info in Opera and Chrome browsers on my Android phone. Please probide an actual link.

    @EthylEster: I don’t believe John has shared specific information about the cost for the developers or the monthly hosting costs, but they were and are significant.  So I’m sure contributions would be most welcome, and if it doesn’t work with your budget before the holidays, after the holidays would surely work also.

    @vhh: That is a most excellent point!  Upper right, just below the balloon man, is where you find the Pet Calendar Info on a computer or on an iPad or tablet in landscape mode.

    On a phone or on a tablet in portrait mode, you can find whatever is in the box in the upper right on a computer under the 3 horizontal lines, aka the hamburger.  But someone forgot to add it to the mobile menu!  (That would be me.)  It is there now, but I’ll share the link anyway.

    Pet Calendar Info

    My apologies.  I promise I won’t forget about the mobile menu next time!
