War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
UPDATE/ADD Below Warm this late-afternoon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — near-about enjoyable outside with temperatures in the high 80s (after almost a month of triple-digit temps) as we catch our first break from hot-as-shit weather boiling through the summer. Although it’s gotten really hot the last few weeks hereabouts, it’s been nowhere nothing…
Already breathlessly awaiting the news, the vast InterWebs became awash this Tuesday afternoon with the announcement: A grand jury has indicted former president Donald Trump for multiple alleged crimes stemming from his efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. The four-count, 45-page indictment accuses Trump of three distinct conspiracies, and charges that he conspired to defraud the…
Hot but overcast a bit this late-afternoon Monday here in California’s Central Valley — and with the clouds, the air is more livable and somewhat easier to handle. Plus, temperatures are reportedly under three digits, so there’s that, too. Meanwhile, the politics of America continue unabated into a full-blown whacked country. Our timeline despite recent…
Ending the weekend this late-afternoon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley — tomorrow comes the return of a relentless, depressing news cycle that only sometimes cools off during our two-day break. And we can’t leap from tomorrow to Friday without some serious shit coming down. Today seems quiet, though, with an occasional pinch of surreal:…
Weekend is upon us again — however, Friday is not on my mind during, let’s say, last Wednesday. Shit really doesn’t have to make sense to comply with all rules and regulations. Yesterday, though, was a porous news day with the awful-asshole T-Rump festering in the headlines and all in a good way. Even as…
Adding more legal spice that’s been flowing all day, comes word of more action in the T-Rump’s way-illegal handling of classified government documents case — more charges have been filed against the nasty Orange Turd and a third cast member joins the fun and frolic. Despite the happy excitement this morning on the possibility of…
Clearly most-hot this noon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — another notch in the ever-tightening belt of climate change upon us with a triple-digit episode once again that’s fully mashed into the same scenario for a huge, giant chunk of the whole world. Obviously ominous the weather situation. Also, too, obviously the fate of…
Hot but so far bearable this Tuesday mid-day here in California’s Central Valley — we’re at or maybe just below 100 degrees, but sweetly assisted by a cool-feeling breeze, which however will most-likely simmer down before late afternoon into quiet, motionless, though well-heated air, thus allowing sunshine to straight-away bake all our brains, if of…
Quietly roasting this Sunday afternoon here in California’s Central Valley — we’re just at triple digits without much movable breeze to stir the heat away or at minimum create a non-searing glaze to the air as we continue to swelter in temps fairly normal for our time and area. Reportedly, maybe dropping below 100 (into…
Although I spent a goodly chunk of my younger life as a resident of Florida — from fourth grade, high school, and college — and in that distant past of my youth it wasn’t a bad place to live, there’s no more. The entire operation, beyond a shitload of problems caused by a repugnant Ron…
