Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

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

Quote tweet friends, screenshot enemies.

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

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

I’m more christian than these people and i’m an atheist.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

Trumpflation is an intolerable hardship for every American, and it’s Trump’s fault.

Keep the Immigrants and deport the fascists!

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

DeSantis transforming Florida into 1930s Germany with gators and theme parks.

Text STOP to opt out of updates on war plans.

The lights are all blinking red.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

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

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

If rights aren’t universal, they are privilege, not rights.

Beware of advice from anyone for whom Democrats are “they” and not “we.”

The unpunished coup was a training exercise.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

2019 Music Discovery

by @heymistermix.com|  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 …

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 …

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 …
