Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

Why did Dr. Oz lose? well, according to the exit polls, it’s because Fetterman won.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

We are aware of all internet traditions.

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

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

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

All your base are belong to Tunch.

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

This fight is for everything.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

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

Today’s GOP: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

I did not have telepathic declassification on my 2022 bingo card.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

No one could have predicted…

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

Republicans in disarray!

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

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

Twitter tells me today is International Dog Day. To celebrate, here’s my favorite picture of Badger:

International Dog Day (Open Thread)

 

I don’t know why I love that picture so much. He looks so surprised and goofy, but he always looks that way. Open thread!

    101th anniversary of the certification of the 19th Amendment which of course meant that chicks could vote.

    What a goofball is the highest form of praise from me when I am talking about a dog.

    Badgerpic reminds me of one of my cats, who will lie on the floor and turn his head back to look at me like, “aren’t I cute? tell me I’m cute! I’m really, really cute.”

    He actually is pretty cute, for a fur coated demon.

    I have to apologize for my dog bleg for Tai. I’ve tried to reach the son of the owner without any luck. I had some word from an intermediary that there was some local possibilities and I’ve heard nothing since. Special thanks to those who indicated interest.

    In Artemis news, she got her last shots today and she seems just happy as a clam to be with us.

    @raven:   You did well in publicizing Tai.  Keep us posted, whenever you get more news.

    Artemis knows she is a lucky girl.

    I don’t know how I’d make it without dogs in my life. Maybe people who grew up without them don’t feel that. I still don’t know how they get by though.

    To dogs everywhere!

    Badger looks really proud of that huge bone right behind him. Like he took it down and drug it home!  heh.

    We needed Badger today.  In fact, I would go so far as to say we need Badger every day.

    Has something happened to Mr. Frog at John Cole’s parents’ pond? I thought we were promised pictures every day. *sniff
