Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

The snowflake in chief appeared visibly frustrated when questioned by a reporter about egg prices.

America is going up in flames. The NYTimes fawns over MAGA celebrities. No longer a real newspaper.

I really should read my own blog.

Boeing: repeatedly making the case for high speed rail.

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

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

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

Republican also-rans: four mules fighting over a turnip.

If rights aren’t universal, they are privilege, not rights.

When you’re in more danger from the IDF than from Russian shelling, that’s really bad.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

Beware of advice from anyone for whom Democrats are “they” and not “we.”

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

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

It’s pointless to bring up problems that can only be solved with a time machine.

Jack Smith: “Why did you start campaigning in the middle of my investigation?!”

Museums are not America’s attic for its racist shit.

Trump should be leading, not lying.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

    Thanks for posting this. Could you edit Beautiful Plumage’s name and remove the unnecessary “n”. I don’t think she has mange.

    @opiejeanne: The “mange” was my error on the meetup page, which carried over when Cole copied from the announcement.

    So many thanks to Tamara and Karl for offering up their home; and to Opiejeanne and DanB for organizing this.  I am looking forward to seeing BJers in the flesh again.

    See you Tuesday!

    Wish I could attend; I live in Tumwater…

    If there are enough folks in the Oly area I would host a meet up or we could meet at a local pub.

    Sadly, can’t attend – I’m down in Portland. Us Portlanders should get together – there are a few people from Portland enough to possibly make it worthwhile?

    I would love to come!

    I’m in the Black Diamond/Maple Valley area. So this should be what, 45 minutes away from me?

    @Dan B: Great! I’ll send an email for the address. Maybe I’ll bring some pie from the Pie Goddess here in Enumclaw.

    @John S.:  I’m for separation of church and state but pie and goddesses gets my hands raised in prayer!

    Sounds nice; but I don’t have the equipment needed.  Even if I did, I wouldn’t know how to put together.

    @Big Mango: Also here in Oly. I’d be down for a meet up but would prefer outdoors during nicer weather.
