War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Noontime Friday here in California’s Central Valley. The weather’s ambiance is already warm touting, thus we’re looking at low-80s later this afternoon — heat the news. So be it — going beyond Ukraine, Putin and asshole, nasty Republicans, climate change also continues its torrid beat toward ending humanity if shit doesn’t change action-wise with our…
Sunshine and warmth this late-afternoon Monday here in California’s Central Valley. Spring has sprung so summer won’t be long in coming — words to weed. Meanwhile. Ukraine has tragic consequences beyond its borders. Today, UN Secretary General António Guterres, in a video address to a conference on sustainability run by the Economist newspaper in London,…
Seemingly, our current time zone’s best descriptive word might be ‘unprecedented.’ Joining Vlad Putin’s ‘unprecedented‘ dangerous shit in Ukraine is a shocker in a field where the unusual has become commonplace for years — climate change. A shitload of climate-science research and analysis lately have these few words, or words to the effect embedded somewhere…
Sprinkling rain close to the Tuesday noon hour here in California’s Central Valley — light wet and not much more. Rain is forecast for maybe this weekend, too, but once again a short shift. Meanwhile, trucking beyond the Vlad Putin-influenced horrors in Ukraine, the shithead virus-pandemic of our age will not be properly held in…
Approaching the noon hour here this Monday in California’s Central Valley — in the news cycle headlines, it’s getting near 10 PM in Ukraine, as the invasion/war is bombing-out in more ways than one. Russia is apparently up to its ass in shit. In their bravery and mettle, the Ukrainians have shown a terrible bright…
Despite a shitload of shit happening all over on many levels and subjects, I doomscrolled on the InterWebs until my fingers wept and concluded the nowadays is an enigma wrapped in a riddle painted by a mystery shoved down a rabbit hole — am I clear? Sad and my fault, i.e., mea culpa to it…
Ukraine continues to be the center of the world’s attention — as it should be — and the whole show appears to be slowly sliding into an even more humane crisis as Vlad Putin’s shitty military has nearly collapsed. The war zone thus will become cities and countryside being blown apart. Coupled with Russian cannon…
Apparently, the conflict in Ukraine is picking up according to most news sources, and from indications, the Russians are going for the highest leveling-effect of urban explosions while seemingly aiming for civilian areas — beat the Ukrainians into dust, people, buildings, all of it. A horrid trend: If you can’t beat them, destroy them with…
Near noon here in California’s Central Valley, and the news keeps running through Ukraine. Although Vlad Putin’s boys are losing big time, bungling an invasion and its aftermath, the Ukrainians are holding on tenaciously and beating the sad, incompetent assholes at their own game. Well, not exactly like the Russkies — no murder/mayhem on the…
In the shitstorm of horror stories, we need to shine a glimmer of light in the Putin-addled darkness: In context with that — another good read in the Ukrainian/Russian sphere of nasty influence this afternoon is an interview at the Guardian with Nadya Tolokonnikova of the Pussy Riot quashings, and a look at the horror…
