Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I did not have telepathic declassification on my 2022 bingo card.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

You cannot shame the shameless.

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

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

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

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires

Conservatism: there are some people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

John Fetterman: Too Manly for Pennsylvania.  Paid for by the Oz for Senator campaign.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

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

An almost top 10,000 blog!

A Senator Walker would be an insult to the state and the nation.

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

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

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

2023 Pet Calendar – Check Your Info Today!

by WaterGirl|  November 26, 20224:43 pm| 80 Comments

This post is in: Balloon Juice, Open Threads, Pet Calendar

We’re still shooting for 2023 Balloon Juice Pet Calendars to be available for order on December 1.

We need your help TODAY in order to make our deadline!

Open Thread, 60 Minutes, I Will Vote Concert

There are issues with a few of the photos.  If you don’t regularly the email I have for you, please check your email.

🐇

We have 300 pet pics for the calendar, so there are two BJ Pet Calendars again this year.  We are calling them Calendar A and Calendar B, just as we have been doing.

If you submitted photos of more than one pet, all of your pets will be placed in either Calendar A or Calendar B.

Please check the Pet Calendar links in the sidebar.

This is your chance to make sure we get it right.

If your pet is no longer with us, you can have a heart next to their name, if you like.

Please check for:

  • Are all of your pets listed with your nym?
  • Is the spelling of your pet’s name correct?
  • Is the word “heart” there if you should have a heart for your pet?  And empty if it should be empty?
  • Are ALL of your pets listed with the same calendar?  (look for either A or B)

The pages in the sidebar aren’t posts, so you can’t comment there.

If anything is incorrect for your pets, or if you have questions, please comment in this thread to let me know about it.

Update:  Even if you find your nym in Calendar A, please check Calendar B to verify that one of your pets didn’t accidentally land in the other calendar.

You have ONE MORE DAY to get your pics in if you haven’t done so already.  This is only possible because I am behind on the calendar so getting your photos in TODAY won’t delay anything,  Silver lining to my being late, I guess.  I shouldn’t have been lollygagging these past few weeks.  :-)

There are issues with some of the photos.  If you are on the list below, we need: either a higher resolution photo (because your file was tiny) or we need a different photo for one reason or another.

2023

bquimby Baby Lola                 tiny

Daniel Price Esme                  tiny

Lord Fartdaddy    Athelbert                tiny

2023

SusanE Sadie   need different photo

2023

      Wileybud Rascal   need different photo

These people have sent some of the pets I expected, but not all.

Sherparik – we don’t have either Farley or Murphy

Watership – I believe your 5 are coming today.

Van Buren – I seem to have Rosie but not Fiona.

If you planned to send pics but haven’t sent them yet, please send them TODAY.

Preview of 2022 Pets of Balloon Juice: Calendar A! Final Preview of 2022 Pets of Balloon Juice: Calendar B! 1

Start your engines!

It’s time to start going through your pet photos for the 2023 Pets of Balloon Juice Calendar!

Elections are November 8, and we’re either going to be giddy with relief (or the opposite of that).  So we want all the pet photos in by Oct 31 before we are distracted by the results.  (the reference to being distracted includes me and beth)

Be sure to look for high quality photos – in terms of resolution.  The really low resolution photos have to be really small in the calendar, so think big if you have them!  Otherwise, low res and small beats not being in the calendar at all.  :-)

All you photographers out there, let me know if you want your photo to be in the running for calendar cover(s) this year.

Some time in the next few days, I’ll put up a link where you can upload your photos.

Totally open thread.

Update at 1:30 pm:  Really hoping to have the upload link and instructions to all of you by Friday so you can start uploading your pics!
