Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I would try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

The rest of the comments were smacking Boebert like she was a piñata.

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

We still have time to mess this up!

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you do not.

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

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

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

If America since Jan 2025 hasn’t broken your heart, you haven’t loved her enough.

Dear legacy media: you are not here to influence outcomes and policies you find desirable.

The snowflake in chief appeared visibly frustrated when questioned by a reporter about egg prices.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

“In the future, this lab will be a museum. do not touch it.”

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

So very ready.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

So fucking stupid, and still doing a tremendous amount of damage.

They punch you in the face and then start crying because their fist hurts.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

Ministry of Silly Walks?

I don’t even know how to begin to deal with this story:

WASHINGTON (AP) – Watch your step! The Pentagon is developing a radar-based device that can identify people by the way they walk, for use in a new antiterrorist surveillance system.

Operating on the theory that an individual’s walk is as unique as a signature, the Pentagon has financed a research project at the Georgia Institute of Technology that has been 80 to 95 percent successful in identifying people.

Paging John Cleese, paging John Cleese!
