War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
After a week — I’m back! First real post in seven days. During this time I went through a final edit of my first novel I’m self-publishing — read about the whole project here, and the post from last Saturday here. Updates on the matter as they become available. And the news cycle didn’t take…
In dangerous territory as we are right now, even butterflies appear in possible jeopardy: An e-mail from the National Butterfly Center was shared this morning at Daily Kos, explaining the shit-situation, pretty straight-forward and on point: We are writing to let you know the National Butterfly Center will be closed Friday, Jan. 28 – Sunday,…
(Illustration: Pablo Picasso’s mural,’ Guernica,’ found here). Tweaking the news cycle this Wednesday evening is an idiot rhyme: Breyer to retire. Since this morning, all the shit all the time is about Breyer’s announced retirement from the SCOTUS. Good to get some light in an otherwise dark-ass future. And the news will be inundated with…
After performing sub-level work on a continuous basis, Fox News‘ Peter Doocy today appeared once again on the receiving end of reality inspired by obvious sense and truth — Joe Biden slipped into the common-man repertoire in calling out a stupid son of a bitch as a stupid son of a bitch. InterWebs went daffy:…
Another weekend coming to an end this early-evening Sunday here in California’s Central Valley, and, too, the first month of a new year is near-about gone already, maybe a preview of just how quickly 2022 will pass, slingshotting us into 2023 with the speed of a finger snap. Time seems to have acquired a warped-sprint…
Beyond Ukraine this Friday evening, which is quickly becoming a BFD (as Joe would say), is this news, which should be a reveal of a way-obvious law-breaking event: This is just the latest on-going development where testimony, documents and idiot interviews have show that the T-Rump and his minions/henchmen/lackeys were bound for glory — per…
One of the toughest questions to answer nowadays — at least for me, from a sane, somewhat knowledgable crux — is how can any person of any sense vote Republican? We’re in a way-dangerous moment in US history as one of ‘only’ two political parties is an immoral, horrible criminal enterprise. Within a lengthy press…
Early-evening Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley, an easy end to another great-looking day with plenty of sunshine and warmish temperatures — probably the best it ever gets around here. And good news, too, and a possible side companion to my post this morning on T-Rump’s first possible steps to a jail cell (we can…
As we continue to watch the prosecution of the Jan. 6 insurrectionists/rioters the entire scenario is noted for the absence of anyone above the Capitol-building invaders — no T-Rump conspiracy assholes. Although the recent indictments of criminal Oath Keepers for seditious conspiracy was a big legal leap in bringing the entire coup attempt by the…
America is at a crossroad/fork-in-the-road, yet we try and maintain a sense of normal in the chaos: Comfortable and nice this early-evening Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — another sunshine sparkled day without even a slight hint of that shitty tule fog. This being the Left Coast, some things come naturally. In other places,…
