Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

This is dead girl, live boy, a goat, two wetsuits and a dildo territory.  oh, and pink furry handcuffs.

The Giant Orange Man Baby is having a bad day.

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

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

Not all heroes wear capes.

Bad people in a position to do bad things will do bad things because they are bad people. End of story.

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

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

The “burn-it-down” people are good with that until they become part of the kindling.

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Stay strong, because they are weak.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

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

Republicans in disarray!

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

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

Also, are you sure you want people to rate your comments?

Be a wild strawberry.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

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

That meeting sounds like a shotgun wedding between a shitshow and a clusterfuck.

Republicans got rid of McCarthy. Democrats chose not to save him.

    That’s awesome. Love the shoes too !  Lying here trying to ignore my knee  after knee replacement surgery. 3 am is always the worst. Not being able to use NSaids sucks. Thank you for the happy thought!

    I have to wonder what Republican Congress critters show their kids about what they do all day.

    @OzarkHillbilly:

    After Missouri relaxes its child labor laws, maybe you’ll get a chance to work side by side with your granddaughters.

    @OzarkHillbilly:

    I thought it was the grandkids, not the kids.

    Or is it a case of “por que no los dos?”

    @EmbraceYourInnerCrone: Oh, yikes.  Do you have the magic cooling machine?  I understand that’s a game-changer after knee surgery.
