Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

This is all too absurd to be reality, right?

Verified, but limited!

The willow is too close to the house.

How do you get liars to care about the truth?

Good luck with your asparagus.

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

This is how realignments happen…

There will be lawyers.

Four legs? good! two legs? we’re not so sure…

Not all heroes wear capes.

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

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

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

Deploy the moving finger of emphasisity!

Yes we did.

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

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

How does anyone do Gilligan’s Island as trump world and not cast Jared as Gilligan?

This is a big f—–g deal.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

new moon? in this economy? https://t.co/YYskRBK6rJ — laura olin (@lauraolin) August 31, 2019 Right at this point in time, seems like potentially good news for (central/western) Florida — not so much, the Carolinas: 06Z #GFS for #HurricaneDorian is predicting the storm will stall on its approach to Florida and then hug the coast until a …

So, this might happen: Hurricane Dorian is now projected to grow into a Cat. 4 storm. One of the most accurate storm predictions, the European Model expects a track that would strike a full frontal blow on Trump's Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach, Florida.#ThursdayThoughts pic.twitter.com/x7y7HfPVsP — Grant Stern (@grantstern) August 29, 2019 I think it’ll …

Our river is high — not quite at flood stage, but it’s higher than normal for this time of year and has over-topped a dam located upriver, which happens occasionally and isn’t a cause for alarm, they tell me. The dam acts as a filter, keeping pieces of the flooded swamp from floating past our …
