Happy fourth, Miss Liberty! In the celebration of a celebration, it’s about the country, not T-Rump’s insatiable, cruel scam of our history: Tom Sullivan today at Digby’s place nutshelled it right-spot on — no way could I record it any better: Our modern mad king has bulldozed the East Wing. He has wrecked the Reflecting…
Screaming into madness seems currently spot on — via the Guardian in January 2019: The Scream was created by the Norwegian artist Edvard Munch in 1893 but it has become a masterpiece – the masterpiece – for our time.

Clear, bright sunshine, though, breezy chilly this mid-day Saturday here in California’s Central Valley — weird weather in the wake of last week’s triple-digit temps versus the forecast for a massive heat dome back East. We’re in for the shits this summer — no shit. Another time for a shine: An informative, spot-on read: Interview…
Today is a full month subsequent to my last post here, and indeed the shit has hit the old, worn-out fan over and over again. The fan is just about clogged with the ugly, taxing shit. Since nearly this entire year has been nothing but horror beyond the spoken/written word that it’s got me in…
