Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Militantly superior in their own minds…

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

Yes we did.

This fight is for everything.

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

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

Where tasty lettuce and good mustard aren’t elitist.

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

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

This blog will pay for itself.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

‘Forty-two’ said Deep Thought, with infinite majesty and calm.

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

Verified, but limited!

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

This is a big f—–g deal.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

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

They are all Michael Cohen now.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

Tick tock motherfuckers! Tick fucking tock!

Nevertheless, she persisted.

Open Thread: Possible NYC Meet-Up?

Query from faithful commentor NotMax:

Checking on interest in a NYC area meet-up.

Shall be arriving in the area July 23, leaving August 7. Only date I
know of at this point which might be iffy is the 28th.

Would be satisfied with the same spot as last year as it is convenient to all mass transit, but certainly not married to the idea.

Possible dates, time and location all subject to jackal recommendations, consensus and convenience; please, please chime in.

Lurkers, friends & companions welcome, as always. Leave a comment, or email me and I’ll forward your message to NotMax.

    RedDirtGirl and I have been emailing about maybe setting one up in July. I am un-free the 19th-21st and 28th+.

    Maybe 26th/27th? Happy to show up early and help set up.

    I’m in. Had a great time last year. Tir Na Nog is exceedingly convenient for me (in fact, I just met a friend there yesterday), but whatever works for people.

    @satby: Hello there, fellow Jackals !

    Am feeling pretty well, trying to get out and walk on nice days, not online earlier because was Doing Something Else. Would feel lots better if ’tweren’t for this *&^^%$#@$%^#&*# pollen.

    Looking forward to seeing y’all again!

    Note that July 26th is the birthday of the US Post Office, George Bernard Shaw, Aldous Huxley, Mick Jagger, and myself ;-)

    I’m always up for something if I’m around (may need to travel for work at some point, but that’s a bit up in the air, so obviously don’t plan around me!)

    Bill & I would definitely be up for this. Looking forward to it.
