Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

Militantly superior in their own minds…

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

People are complicated. Love is not.

Nevertheless, she persisted.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

This is all too absurd to be reality, right?

Women: they get shit done

Naturally gregarious and alpha

Reality always wins in the end.

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

Hot air and ill-informed banter

Republican obstruction dressed up as bipartisanship. Again.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

The house always wins.

… makes me wish i had hoarded more linguine

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

This blog goes to 11…

The revolution will be supervised.

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

Where tasty lettuce and good mustard aren’t elitist.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

Ketchup has a long history. Its distant ancestor hailed from Fujian, China–a fermented fish sauce known as kê-tsiap. Later innovators like Mary Randolph would popularize a tomato version. By 1896 it was the “national sauce of America”. For whatever reason, I find this all fascinating. I was very happy to learn that Science Friday had …

Several years ago in Slate, Tom Scocca sliced Big Onion wide open with an exposé of a damnable lie replicated in innumerable published recipes: Layers of Deceit Why do recipe writers lie and lie and lie about how long it takes to caramelize onions? Browning onions is a matter of patience. My own patience ran …
