Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

How any woman could possibly vote for this smug smarmy piece of misogynistic crap is beyond understanding.

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

Fight for a just cause, love your fellow man, live a good life.

Bark louder, little dog.

They don’t have outfits that big. nor codpieces that small.

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

It’s pointless to bring up problems that can only be solved with a time machine.

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

Fight them, without becoming them!

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

“A king is only a king if we bow down.” – Rev. William Barber

Not all heroes wear capes.

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

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

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

Those who are easily outraged are easily manipulated.

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

Our messy unity will be our strength.

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

The republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

As much fun as it might be to watch people you don’t like losing their shit, Democrats still have to pass this bill. If you do nothing else this week get on the bloody phone. These are Democrats we are talking about, people. Gloat later.

I’m tired of all the whining. Also, go sign a petition.

Also, too, do any of you do needlepoint or embroidery or whatever it is called. I’d like to buy a “Home, crap, home” for my wall (I’m assuming you all have seen the Money Pit).

New Widget

If you look to the right, you will notice that we have partnered with Change.org to put up an activism widget. You will be able to easily participate in online petitions which will not only add your name to the petition, but forward letters to your congresscritters when you sign. Additionally, this website receives a small stipend every time you sign one, so it is a win/win for us.

There will be any number of issues that you can participate in, and it will be a permanent addition, so I hope it is not to harsh on the eyes for you delicate flowers who manage to complain about literally everything on this website.

Right now there are petitions about HCR, blackwater, and the recent SCOTUS ruling.
