Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

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

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

The GOP couldn’t organize an orgy in a whorehouse with a fist full of 50s.

When do the post office & the dmv weigh in on the wuhan virus?

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

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Republicans in disarray!

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

Republicans can’t even be trusted with their own money.

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

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

DeSantis transforms Florida into 1930s Germany with gators and theme parks.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

I thought you might like to compare your fine hat/s to the ones I saw this past Sunday at the 5th Ave. Easter Bonnet parade. Which one is your favorite? (Mine isn’t even a hat. It’s the two dapper gentlemen in their Sunday finery. Very nice!)

This is 17 yo Screamy, who really enjoyed the parade and has already picked out his/her (sorry, forgot to ask) 2024 parade costume.

    I knew the song, and I once heard an old Jack Benny radio show episode about it. But I just figured it was a quaint old thing that had died in the 1950s.

    My Long Island mother in law was big on dressing our daughters in Easter bonnets, the traditional white ones.

    Late to the parade…

    my favorite photo was of the gentlemen, on the left in pink tails and white top hat, and on the right the gentleman with a bright red top hat. So well turned out !!! Always appropriate for a fancy  ball gathering !!
