Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

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

We still have time to mess this up!

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

Fuck the extremist election deniers. What’s money for if not for keeping them out of office?

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

This really is a full service blog.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

We’re not going back!

Republican obstruction dressed up as bipartisanship. Again.

Putin dreamed of ending NATO, and now it’s Finnish-ed.

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

Take your GOP plan out of the witness protection program.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

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

… among the most cringeworthy communications in the history of the alphabet!

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

Prediction: the GOP will rethink its strategy of boycotting future committees.

    @lahke: Dammit! I can’t find the emoji for a pin-dropping sound.

    ETA: And why is it suddenly so foggy, and where is that eerie music coming from?

    Just saw that Jeff Bezos bought some new digs in The Hills(Beverly Hills).  Checked the place out on Google Maps, got huge hedges surrounding the place to keep out prying eyes.

    Kind of eerie rendition of a familiar tune.

    Not eerie per se aside from the title but I do have a soft spot for this bouncy composition.
