War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Despite what your eyes and ears tell you, a shitload of Americans are just plain brain-fucked as the attack last January on the US Capitol building has gone from an insurrection/riot to a tourist walk to FBI-induced event to now it’s all Joe Biden and Democrats fault — Repubicans are atrociously insane, gripping the country…
Heat on the edge of scorch again today in Califoria’s Central Valley with triple-digit temperatures accompanied by not a ziltch of wind — in my neck-of the Valley, it’s 100-degrees downtown, yet contrary to what I’d think, it’s two-degrees hotter here in the more-tree abundant suburbs, We;re usually hotter out here every day, baffler in…
Good Sunday morning, and another musical intermission from all the terrible, disquieting bullshit rambling about out in the world, especially in these here United States, instead give a listen to some really good, topnotch covers of some really good topnotch rock/near-about-rock sounds — last installment here — and today coming from a new place. Usually…
In our continuing struggle against the COVID-19 pandemic — after about a year-and-a-half — we appear in the right-now time-frame/plotline to be in a kind limbo-downer, falling short of a crucial breakpoint in obtaining sny kind of ‘herd immunity’ and maybe getting-back some small sense of ‘normal,’ whatever that is nowadays. Big obstacle is anti-vaxxers…
Fans of Fox Mulder rejoiced this afternoon as the US Office of National Intelligence released its long-awaited UFO report, though, leaving more conclusions up in the air than identified — the so-called Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force checked-out 144 events: ‘These reports describe incidents that occurred between 2004 and 2021, with the majority coming in…

Briefly brushing aside politics for a moment, let’s take another peek at a fully-formed catastrophe that will soon be the headliner — climate change. Although today here in California’s Central Valley is really nice — mid-90s with a cool breeze — our drought is continuing to worsen and our warming environment is not helping. In…
One of the most-glaring examples of current Republican malfeasance occurred yesterday in the US Senate — Dana Milbank at The Washington Post correctly summed it up: ‘Senate Republicans voted in lockstep on Tuesday to block the landmark voting rights bill, in effect embracing the disenfranchisement of non-White voters under the “big lie” justification that widespread…
Idiots outside of an institution have a shitload of problems, reality being one of them, and with the case of T-Rump and his followers, it’s part of the Big Lie: Standing story of our times recapped this morning by Chuck Schumer on the Senate floor: “He lied over and over and over again … poisoning…
Here we are again, another Monday and with it another book detailing the horror of the T-Rump getting way-fucking flummoxed by the COVID-19 pandemic, brushing-aside warnings with narcissistic ignorance, allowing the virus to run rampant across the US, now having killed more than 600,000-plus Americans within a short, year-and-a-half — in irony of all slingshot,…
