Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We’re not going back!

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

It’s all just conspiracy shit beamed down from the mothership.

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

I was confident that someone would point it out and thought why not me.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

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

Let’s finish the job.

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

Republicans don’t lie to be believed, they lie to be repeated.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Speaker Mike Johnson is a vile traitor to the House and the Constitution.

Ah, the different things are different argument.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

Republicans: “Abortion is murder but you can take a bus to get one.” Easy peasy.

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

I didn’t have alien invasion on my 2023 BINGO card.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

… gradually, and then suddenly.

Everything is totally normal and fine!!!

(D.B. Echo at Another Monkey) __ Professor Krugman reminds us not to get so distracted by the SCOTUS anti-ACA antics that we forget to keep a sharp eye on zombie-eyed granny-starver[*] Paul Ryan: … The Ryan budget is a fraud; Mr. Ryan talks loudly about the evils of debt and deficits, but his plan would …

Pink Slime — It’s What’s for Dinner!

by Anne Laurie|  March 10, 201212:22 pm| 134 Comments

This post is in: C.R.E.A.M., Food

ABC News wants to put you off your burger: Gerald Zirnstein grinds his own hamburger these days. Why? Because this former United States Department of Agriculture scientist and, now, whistleblower, knows that 70 percent of the ground beef we buy at the supermarket contains something he calls “pink slime.” __ “Pink slime” is beef trimmings. …

Several years ago, a dear friend of Joelle’s gifted her an entire furniture set (I’ll let her describe it in the comments). The problem was that it was coming from a house in Flagstaff, so it has been sitting in storage for quite some time. So today, I took a U-Haul up to their house, …

A Late Evening Snack: Mother’s Day Baking

by Adam L Silverman|  May 14, 201911:19 pm| 40 Comments

This post is in: Food, Recipes

I did some baking for the family’s Mother’s Day brunch. My brother specifically requested a key lime pie. I also made a Torta de Santiago. Torta de Santiago, sometimes Tarta de Santiago, is a regional dessert from Gailicia, Spain (torta is Galician, while tarta is Spanish) and was created in the Middle Ages for pilgrims. …
