Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

No one could have predicted…

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

To the privileged, equality seems like oppression.

These days, even the boring Republicans are nuts.

If you’re gonna whine, it’s time to resign!

The arc of the moral universe does not bend itself. it is up to us to bend it.

The unpunished coup was a training exercise.

When we show up, we win.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

We’re watching the self-immolation of the leading world power on a level unprecedented in human history.

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

The real work of an opposition party is to oppose.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

If a good thing happens for a bad reason, it’s still a good thing.

“Perhaps I should have considered other options.” (head-desk)

The desire to stay informed is directly at odds with the need to not be constantly enraged.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

You are either for trump or for democracy. Pick one.

I swear, each month of 2025 will have its own history degree.

Fucking consultants! (of the political variety)

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

Balloon Juice 2025 Pet Calendar!

Who’s up for the Balloon Juice 2025 Pet Calendar?

We are on a short deadline – the deadline for that will be Wednesday, Nov 27.

We’re aiming for an order date of Dec 1.

We are on a short deadline, so we set a limit of 10 pet photos per person this year!

Please send me email to let me know 1) your nym, 2) your name, and 3) the names of your pets.

Send the email to [email protected]

I have the upload link ready to go, just need to find someone who can test the link for me and confirm that it works. Any volunteers?

Just sent the upload link and instructions by email to everyone who sent me email.  If you don’t have it, that means I filed your message in the wrong folder somehow  :-) and you should send me an email message to say you didn’t receive it.

Please don’t send the photos by email – When you do upload them, please submit the highest resolution version you have.

PLEASE DO NOT SEND YOUR PHOTOS TO ME BY EMAIL.  I am nearly at my quota on my watergirl email and photos are going to put me over the limit – in which case I won’t be able to get any email. :-(

    @zhena gogolia: I am in the market for a person who can test the upload link the I set up this afternoon.  Once someone can test it, then I will email it to everyone who has sent me an email with their name, nym and pet names.

    @Auntie Anne: The link was just tested and it works.

    Reminder to all:  Please name the files with the name of your pet.  If you’re on a phone and cannot do that, let me know.

    About 20 people have sent email with their info for the calendar.

    No love for the calendar this year?  These are really times for most of us.  If beth and I can muster the heart to do the calendar, maybe you guys can muster the heart to send in your pets?  (she asked hopefully)

    You mind if I post this call on Bluesky?

    @Nukular Biskits: This is the Balloon Juice Pets calendar, so I think maybe not?  Unless you want to post something to remind BJ peeps on BlueSky that it’s pet calendar time?  That would work!

    @WaterGirl:

    That’s what I was thinking.

    Not a general announcement but a reminder for jackals.

    Done … although I’m not sure how many BJers follow me there.

    And I see where Cole put the word out as well.

    @WaterGirl: Yes – Look at your calendar for the day before Thanksgiving. Is the number correct? Mine says 25 and there are several more mistakes like that in this year’s model.

    / grump – pix uploaded

    @WaterGirl: I can send more pix but I cannot film the whole calendar (unless you just do one or two pets per month 😁).

    Put the announcement in the on the road post tomorrow.
