War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Across the great divide of Red and Blue America, the MAGA hatters, anti-mask nutcases currently making life feel worse have been seething underground forever waiting for someone like the T-Rump to come along and plug them into the socket of openness and riot. In the context of crazy — this event last Sunday at a…
Although Republicans/MAGA hatters/Q-balls hate vaccine and mask mandates, the COVID-19 virus loves them — yesterday Texas nit-twit Gov. Greg Abbott idiotized an executive order barring private companies or any other entity from requiring vaccines, this in a state where 67,000 people have already died, with most-likely many more to come. It’s been noted before that…
Of all the Friday news dumps this particular Friday was another COVID-19 milestone — more than 700,000 Americans have now died from the virus. Especially looking at the tweet below, and those wonderful summer months of last June and July — oh, how the shit hits the fan: And that long set of numbers have…
As another healthcare measure in this seemingly endless virus conflict, the booster shot was just okayed last week as the next step of the fight in the trenches or in this case, jabs in the arm. Right now, those eligible are fully-vaxxed Pfizer recipients, 65 years old or older, 18 years old or older and…
Forest-fire skies this late-afternoon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley — brown-stained air from the wildfires south of us in the Sequoia National Park, which keeps a lid on any clean sunshine.

Summer’s officially departed-outbound this Wednesday afternoon, but it’s still way-warm here in California’s Central Valley with temperatures notching out in triple digits, though, for the supposedly last time for a while, maybe this year. The Autumnal Equinox (the moment when the length of daylight and darkness are almost perfectly equal) bookmarks the now: Not at…
Major news this Monday afternoon beyond the Wall Street market meltdown is an ugly benchmark made with the current continual horror-story — COVID-19 — as the US has apparently eclipsed Spanish flu dying a hundred years ago, but we’re way-not finished yet. In reality, old news: From the Associated Press this afternoon: “Big pockets of…
Meanwhile, back to the nowadays — I somehow missed this shit from last week, an episode of how the certifiable are wrecking decent, empathetic society: Down yonder in Rutherford County Tennessee, the deadly ignorance of common sense and historical reality was on full, nasty display when high school student, Grady Knox, gave a pro-mask comment…
Three months ago, there was a glimmer of hope in the COVID pandemic, but now a shit scene, and doesn’t look like it will be any better soon — from the Associated Press yesterday: The summer that was supposed to mark America’s independence from COVID-19 is instead drawing to a close with the U.S. more…
Warm and near-about comfortable this mid-day Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — first day of the ‘fall season,’ a time zone which usually lasts until about Halloween, then the holiday season kicks in, amping shit up higher.
