Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

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

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

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

“Squeaker” McCarthy

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

When do the post office & the dmv weigh in on the wuhan virus?

After roe, women are no longer free.

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

Optimism opens the door to great things.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

The GOP is a fucking disgrace.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Fuck the extremist election deniers. What’s money for if not for keeping them out of office?

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

I’m pretty sure there’s only one Jack Smith.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

2019 Music Discovery

by $8 blue check mistermix|  January 19, 20202:25 pm| 83 Comments

This post is in: Music

What’s your favorite band or performer that you discovered in 2019? It doesn’t have to be music made in 2019 – just something you found last year. Here’s mine – Cigarettes After Sex. Their new album, Cry, dropped last Fall, but they’ve been around for a while. Honorable mention – Big Thief. Also, whoever gave …

Wingnut Science

by John Cole|  March 30, 201010:35 am| 44 Comments

This post is in: Science & Technology, Our Failed Media Experiment, The Wingularity, We Are All Mayans Now

It looks like the wingnut scientific method looks a lot like the underpants gnomes helped them out: The paper begins by talking about the ENSO, better known as El Niño. It’s a periodic shift in ocean currents and surface winds associated with wide reaching changes that no climate scientist doubts. But the authors then pivot …

Please tell me this is true. via.

Irony Is Dead

by John Cole|  August 24, 20065:30 pm| 135 Comments

This post is in: Science & Technology, General Stupidity

I read this several times, and unfortunately, it does not seem to be a parody: Not too long ago the blogosphere was rocking with the great debate of Intelligent Design vs Darwinism. It was an interesting debate, though I doubt much that anyone had the mind changed. Be that as it may, the whole thing …

“It’s Just a Flesh Wound…”

by John Cole|  April 27, 200610:16 am| 225 Comments

This post is in: Science & Technology, General Stupidity

Looks like the Discovery Institute fools are still at it: The Discovery Institute is finding some good in the December ruling by a federal judge that intelligent design could not be taught in a Pennsylvania school district. “The ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) sued to keep a few students in Pennsylvania from hearing about intelligent …

Xena

This post is in: Science & Technology

New ‘news’ about the tenth planet: The 10th planet turns out to be barely larger than Pluto, a new photograph by the Hubble Space Telescope shows. The object — still officially unnamed but currently tagged with the designation 2003 UB313 and nicknamed Xena — covered only 1.5 pixels in the digital image taken by Hubble, …

The War on Evolution

by John Cole|  February 21, 200612:27 pm| 92 Comments

This post is in: Politics, Science & Technology, General Stupidity

And the games continue without any sign of a future let-down: In the recent skirmishes over evolution, advocates who have pushed to dilute its teaching have regularly pointed to a petition signed by 514 scientists and engineers. The petition, they say, is proof that scientific doubt over evolution persists. But random interviews with 20 people …
