Overcast and chilly this Wednesday evening here on California’s north coast — winter’s about here… Beyond our aggravating political circus, this afternoon I spied a couple of new studies on marijuana, both furthering normalization. First one was about conduct — as more US teens now smoke cannabis then cigarettes, new research indicates pot use won’t…
Another Monday here on California’s north coast, and another lark of sorrow — the T-Rump’s hard-headed, bat-shit-crazy take on that devastating climate-change report from last Friday (HuffPost): “I don’t believe it,” he told reporters outside the White House before boarding Air Force One for a flight to Mississippi. The president also attempted to place the…

Sunny but chilled by a sea breeze this Thursday late-afternoon here on California’s north coast, another day in the life. Since the midterms, I’ve become even-more wary of the T-Rump’s mental state. Always mean, back-stabbing and cruel-crazy, as noted at the Daily Beast this morning. Trump has repeatedly—and sometimes for a sustained period of time—made fun…
One of the great lying, hypocritical assholes of our age, Mitch McConnell, tweeted yesterday afternoon: ‘My latest Op-Ed: Will Dems work with us, or simply put partisan politics ahead of the country?‘ Sen.
