Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Good luck with your asparagus.

You are either for trump or for democracy. Pick one.

This blog goes to 11…

Let there be snark.

Militantly superior in their own minds…

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

Just a few bad apples.

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

I’m going back to the respite thread.

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

There’s some extremely good trouble headed their way.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

We can agree to disagree, but i’m right.

This blog will pay for itself.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

Han shot first.

Too inconsequential to be sued

Deploy the moving finger of emphasisity!

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

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

How do you get liars to care about the truth?

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

This is one of the funniest damned things I have read in a long time:

Jailed Journalist Reports NY Times Desecration
by Scott Ott

(2005-07-09) — Law enforcement authorities in major U.S. cities put riot police on high alert today after recently-jailed journalist Judith Miller complained that prison guards had desecrated her copy of The New York Times.

“We know that journalists worship the Times,” said one deputy police chief, “If they take to the streets in protest, things could get ugly fast.”

Ms. Miller, who works for the Times’ counter-intelligence department, told an unnamed visitor that her copy of the revered ‘Gray Lady’ had been carelessly tossed on the floor, handled by a conservative Republican jailer (who she called ‘an infidel’) and may have been used as a lining for a cat’s litter box.

Read the whole thing…
