Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

This blog will pay for itself.

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

Donald Trump found guilty as fuck – May 30, 2024!

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

Everybody saw this coming.

They are not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

I desperately hope that, yet again, i am wrong.

A tremendous foreign policy asset… to all of our adversaries.

Just because you believe it, that does not make it true.

In my day, never was longer.

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

Compromise? There is no middle ground between a firefighter and an arsonist.

Every decision we make has lots of baggage with it, known or unknown.

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

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

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

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

Human rights are not a matter of opinion!

After a pandemic pause, the AKC’s “Meet the Breeds” show was back in town this year. It’s a full day extravaganza of meeting and petting dogs, watching agility shows, and nonstop oohing and aahing. Last time they also had cats but not this year; I hope they’ll return next year. The only drawback is that people, other than you, are allowed in and it can get pretty crowded. Still, do go if you have the chance, it’s a great experience. Let’s meet the doggos:

Mr. “Too Cool for School”

On The Road - ema - Meet the Breeds 8

Ms. “Where Is Your Personal Escalator Valet?”

On The Road - ema - Meet the Breeds 7

Mr. “I Rule the Agility Course“

Last, but not least, oh my, just look at that face!

    My sis had a Saint Bernard, and he was a big old sweetie pie. On walks, sometimes homeowners would panic when the Saint squatted in their yard, but sis always had a bag and a garden shovel to pick up the massive turds. The Saint had his own sofa in the house (otherwise, humans would have no room to sit) and a shed with a window unit A/C as a backyard dog house. I miss that slobbery bastard!

    I wish this show was coming to my area, but it doesn’t appear to be coming anywhere near me. Drat.

    I was at the Bloodhound booth both days. I am every year its in NYC, talking to people what it’s like to have that breed. It was nice to have it back, though I hate it at the Javits Center, I really prefer the Piers.

    This was exactly what I needed this morning!

    I love them all, but I might be extra partial to Detective Chief Inspector Sniffy Thursday and half a dozen others.

    My trainer is getting two pups, who should be there tomorrow. Can’t wait to meet them!

    This made me laugh.  It is so true.

    Dogs in clothes.  All the good doggos.  What fun.

    I love dobies. And it’s not just the fact that they were originally bred by a tax collector for protection. There has been a concerted effort to breed out the more aggressive tendencies but they’re still fiercely protective. They’re actually really good family dogs too. And they look so much better undocked.

    I love dogs. I’d just prefer some that don’t sound as if they’re suffocating when they breathe: pugs and Frenchies.  My cousins had a pug, a delightful dog who always seemed to be on her last gasp/snuffle.

    What is Mr Pinky Trocadero? People who breed hairless dogs and/or cats should always go naked themselves – seems only fair!
