Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

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

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

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

This really is a full service blog.

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

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

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

With all due respect and assumptions of good faith, please fuck off into the sun.

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

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

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

Our messy unity will be our strength.

The revolution will be supervised.

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

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

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

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

Republicans do not trust women.

Join the Fight: Social Media Initiative Happenings This week

by WaterGirl|  April 11, 20225:00 pm| 10 Comments

This post is in: Join the Fight!, Open Threads, Political Action

FacebookTweetEmail

We announced last week that the social media initiative we’re working on is ready to go!

Quick Recap:

Twitter.  TikTok.  Instagram.  Facebook.

Love them or hate them, they have a lot of influence.

We have a plan to work the refs, spread the word, and persuade the persuadable.

Note: there are 8 ways you can help, and half of those don’t require you to post on social media at all.

We’d love to have you join us!

Click Here to sign up, tell us what you’re interested in.

You haven’t missed a thing, our first activities are this week!

We’re holding 3 training zooms this week (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday) and Tuesday is the first zoom meeting of the social media content creation team (creating video and “print” pieces).  All zooms start at 8 pm blog time.

If you already signed up to participate in the social media initiative, you should have received details about the zooms via email from me.

Missed the introductory post last week?

Click below to read all about what we’re up to and find out all the ways you can help.

    Also if anyone knows javascript and html and wants to make the join-the-fight site look prettier, please feel free to mention that too. I am well aware that I am a backend programmer who couldn’t find his frontend with both hands.

    Strange. There were 66 replies in this posting. Now there is but one. And it’s a new number one. Do I get to be 2?

    iphone, no idea OS and too lazy to look right now, surfing safari

    ETA: Yup. I’m 2. Not 67 or whatever.

    Has the site been hacked by the Russians? Can you imagine the Russian who was assigned BJ and went, oh, shitski.

    Could be the 2 of the best sources of information online are from Adam and (I’m rather shocked by the following) Daily Kos got the hacking?

    Tonight’s Zoom was a nice small group. I hope that more people can join in the next two.

    @Mike S (Now with a Democratic Congressperson!): I have been adding PA organizations to the list this morning (Tues) and I came via twitter I came across the New Pennsylvania Project modeled after Stacey Abrams New Georgia Project. They are hiring people right now!  This has cheered me up enormously!

    @Ukai: Oh no!  I am just seeing this now.  :-(

    I think we will try to hold one more zoom training next week for folks who couldn’t make the others

    It’s so late that you may not see this, but welcome!  Glad you are joining us.
