Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

It is not hopeless, and we are not helpless.

Text STOP to opt out of updates on war plans.

Innocent people do not delay justice.

People are weird.

The revolution will be supervised.

With all due respect and assumptions of good faith, please fuck off into the sun.

They want us to be overwhelmed and exhausted. Focus. Resist. Oppose.

If you voted for Trump, you don’t get to speak about ethics, morals, or rule of law.

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

Dumb motherfuckers cannot understand a consequence that most 4 year olds have fully sorted out.

Cancel the cowardly Times and Post and set up an equivalent monthly donation to ProPublica.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

Democracy cannot function without a free press.

The words do not have to be perfect.

The republican speaker is a slippery little devil.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

When I was faster i was always behind.

We will not go quietly into the night; we will not vanish without a fight.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

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

I have other things to bitch about but those will have to wait.

Overnight Open Thread: Nothing Of Importance

Hello, late owls and early risers. It’s the B-team filling in for Anne Laurie while she recovers. So happy to hear from her these past two days.

It’s been a long day here, and I’ve got nothing for you tonight. But I pulled a couple of fun videos, hope that’s enough to give you some respite.

***

This made me smile – I can’t believe all the times I’ve done a brief subscription with Apple I never watched the Muppets episode of Carpool Kareoke. I’ll have to rectify that next time I sign up.

***

And one more fun video before I call it a night.

This is a totally open thread

      Why can’t we give ourselves one more chance? Why can’t we give love just one more chance? Why can’t we give love?

      Under Pressure is catchy as hell but thoroughly underrated as a protest song, which it is. Maybe the fact that it’s so catchy is why people don’t catch the message but it’s there.

      @Baud: Why? Because she has the maga look and style? Because they share the fraudster gene?

      @Baud: and paid for her daughter’s rent with the same funds.  The pardoned felon stated she will run to be Justice of the Peace.  Can you hear the MAGA’s now as the intone their dear leader’s mantra?

      ”She has to make a living” they are saying with dull, dim eyes and forced smiles.
