We all know rhe T-Rump hates losers, and that’s due to the unmistakable fact he himself is a giant loser. And he does a shitty job of trying to gloss-over the fact, despite all the energy given to trying to hide it. Odd, too, he’s not only a political loser, but he’s way-more a financial…
Despite the deadly lure of doomscrolling even on this holiday Thursday in California’s Central Valley, I’m thinking rudimentary musical thoughts of the imagination — sunshine right now in late afternoon, a welcome respite and clears perceptions of gloom after nearly three full days of Tule fog, our area’s seasonal shitsville-weather period, a depressing gray stretch…
Deep-foggy here in California’s Central Valley, and feels like it’s foggy all over the world… Except it’s fog and not rain, and I’m in Californa, not Georgia, but due to the pandemic and all its terrible vistas, you get the point. And the mark is getting deeper and deeper — as of today the world…

Right now, pot is medically legal in 33 states, recreationally legal in 12 states, as well Washington, D.C, and two-thirds of Americans want marijuana to be legalized: ‘The share of U.S. adults who…
I saw this odd news item today: (Illustration found here).

They finally grew weary…
Beyond politics and the virus: Climate change is earth’s biggest issue, and is more than just a problem for future generations.The shit is already here. The hottest warming-up spot is also one of the coldest — the Arctic. And it’s getting so warm visitors don’t need long-johns, with a situation grim for the immediate future.…
Since he was called winner of the 2020 presidential election more than two weeks ago, Joe Biden has acted presidential, and even more so today as he and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris introduced the national security team in Wilmington, Delaware: ‘Biden said his nominees will “restore America globally, its global leadership and its moral leadership,…
