War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Asshole morons, obvious First Amendment violations in the biggest journalism story of the year, and death by anxiety — nothing heavy, plus creating another example of the Streisand effect. (Illustration found here.) I read about the asshole raid by police in Marion, Kansas, on Friday, and it looked like a shitstorm about to strike as…
As we move further and further into the 2024 campaign, the more gross the politics become — Republicans suck. And apparently, the worse of the worse is Ron DeSantis-unsanitary: ‘He did it again. Gross Ron Desantis has a disgusting habit of wiping his nose right before shaking someone’s hand or touching a part of their…
In the course of current events, T-Rump really, really sucks. He has to be one of the worse — if not the actual worse — human beings who’s ever lived. One wonders at the low-form definition of what the T-Rump amplifies: The success of Donald Trump, an asshole who became president, created a fallacy: Americans…
(Sketch above by Jane Rosenberg for Reuters, and found here.) Once again the T-Rump was in a packed, anxious courtroom this afternoon for more criminal activity (The Washington Post): ‘Former president Donald Trump pleaded not guilty Thursday to charges that he plotted to overturn the 2020 election before and after the Jan. 6, 2021, attack…
Nice weather this noon-time Thursday here in Calfornia’s Central Valley — temps in the high 70s right now with an expected high only bout 10 degrees higher, and in being relative, is near-about chilly. In our political environment this morning, it’s just about all T-Rump — he’s scheduled to be in a DC courtroom this…
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…
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…
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…
Misintentions turning into a hoax upset the InterWebs yesterday and suckered me this morning. Off this tweet: In my context, during my early news scroll routine this morning, I came across the tweet at Balloon Juice supposedly depicting Mike Pence getting hit in the head with a water balloon — wonderful, and such a scene…
